Together with my iMac I am running a Samsung CLX-3175FN multi-function laser printer. Up until a few weeks ago everything was running normally and, when I selected 'Print' on a document or anything, the Samsung Smart panel would pop up showing me the current print supplies level. BUT, at some stage recently, no such panel pops up anymore. When I try System Preferences/Print & Fax/Options and supplies/Print levels - all I get is 'Information not available'. Furthermore, the Samsung Smart Panel icon on the top menu bar is now 'dead'.
I have checked with Samsung support and I have uninstalled and re-installed the latest drivers for the printer as they suggested - to no avail.
Samsung support has, in turn, tested the facility independently on several Macs running 10.6.2. and cannot find any issue as it works as advertised. They therefore suggest it might be a problem with my particular installation of 10.6.2.
Before I resort to a complete re-install has anyone else come across this problem please?
