Have a different Samsung model? The same principles apply to the C41x, C48x, and M28x series. When in doubt, choose “Generic PCL 6” or “Samsung” from the CUPS driver list.

Short answer: HP has fully integrated Samsung’s printer division. New development focuses on HP’s own LaserJet and Smart Tank lines. The Samsung C43x is considered a legacy product.

Before diving into the installation, it’s crucial to understand the landscape. The Samsung C43x series uses a proprietary printing language called SPL (Samsung Printer Language) or, in some configurations, PCL (Printer Command Language).

However, the generic CUPS method works reliably for basic printing. If you need advanced features (duplex scanning, toner level monitoring, or color calibration), consider using a Windows PC on the same network as a print server, or switch to a newer printer with official Mac support.
