Usually, for the printer to work correctly, you need to download the driver from a special installation disk, which comes with the printer itself. But if you need to connect a printer or MFP, this very installation disk may not be at hand. And it often happens that the driver was developed under Windows XP and it simply does not work on Windows 8.
If set Canon printer 810 from the original disk is impossible, you can always do it manually: the method is simple and accessible to everyone.
Method one
For Mac OS X, go to the Apple menu and click " System settings". Select "Print and Fax" and click on the "+" icon. To start the installation process, select a new printer from the list.
- The next step is to install the printer. In the "Install Printer" window that opens, the system will display printers available for installation.
For instance:
- Canon mg2440
- samsung scx 3400
- Canon lbp 810
- Epson l355
- canon mf3010
- Canon lbp3010b
Next, you should find the printer by other parameters. For example, you can select a printer by name by manually entering the path to it. Either you need to add a network device by IP address or connect wireless connection HP deskjet over WiFi and Bluetooth. 
Method two
If the printing device cannot be connected through the control panel of the computer, then you can use an alternative method and download the driver from the printer manufacturer's support page on the Internet.
Before installing a printer without a disk, you need to find out the exact model of the device, as well as the version and bit depth (in bits) of the computer's operating system. The brand and model are listed on the front of the printer itself, such as Canon lbp 810 or Samsung scx 3400 etc.
We find out the bitness of the OS by right-clicking on the “This PC” icon and selecting “Properties”.
Having decided on the outgoing parameters, we are looking for drivers on the official website of the manufacturer:
- for scx 3400 – http://www.samsung.com/en/support/
- for lbp 810 and mf3010 - http://www.canon.ru/support/consumer_products/
- for l355 - http://support.epson.ru/
- for HP deskjet - http://support.hp.com/en-us/
Downloading a driver to a computer from the official website is also beneficial because setting through the operating system provides only the basic functionality necessary for the printing process, while installing an extended version from the manufacturer makes it possible to correctly set up the scanning program as well.
On the printer manufacturer's website, in the Support section, you need to find the specific model of HP deskjet or scx and download the appropriate driver version by clicking on the floppy disk. Usually, the driver is downloaded to the computer as an archive file, which must be unzipped before installation. Perhaps, after unzipping, several files will appear in the folder different type. Among them, by name, you need to find exactly the driver that suits your operating system. Such a file will have the *.exe extension (for example, for the i-SENSYS MF3010 MFP, when installed on a computer with 32-bit Windows 8, the driver is called MF3010MFDriversV2095W32RU.exe).
After opening the required file, a window for installing the program on the computer will appear.
Some printer models may require you to disconnect during installation. MFP Samsung scx from a computer for correct configuration software. Then you can safely follow the prompts and, in a few minutes, the desired driver will be installed.

Not so long ago I wrote about my experience with the ML-1660, now I want to cover the topic of connecting this printer in ubuntu linux. The topic is notable for the fact that there are options here, otherwise I would not write.
When I first bought this printer (a couple of years ago), Ubuntu Linux was not very friendly with this new printer at the time. And then I began to look for a Linux driver for it, since it was not on the disk that came with the printer, everything is as usual, only for Windows.
How to install samsung printer in linux?
After some searching, I found such a driver and successfully installed it.

How to install samsung printer drivers
First, let's download the driver itself: Driver Samsung ML-1660 Linux.
Unpack the archive. If the unpacked folder is in your home directory, then go to it:

Sudo sh autorun
After that, a graphical installer window should appear:
We start the installation, as we usually do in Windows. I will not describe all the initial steps, everything is clear intuitively. It is better to turn on the printer before installation so that the program sees it. At some point, the following window will appear:
As you can see, here you can install the driver almost on . Of course, I choose mine, Samsung ML-1660. If your Samsung printer is not listed, look for a more recent driver version, as this one is already outdated and will become even more obsolete over time.
After installation, a shortcut to the program appears in the APPLICATIONS menu. We launch.
Here is such a utility. Not to say that I need it now, but if you have a new printer or for some reason your Linux does not see your model, then you can try installing the printer driver in this way.
