The Samsung ML-2160 series of laser printers, including the wireless and ML-2165W models, are known for their compact design and efficient printing. However, like many modern laser printers, they use a toner chip system that can block printing once a predefined page count is reached, even if there is toner left in the cartridge. A firmware reset, often referred to as a "FIX firmware," allows the printer to operate without these chips, enabling the use of refilled or third-party cartridges without error messages. Why Perform a Firmware Reset?
: The printer's internal counter resets to 100% every time the device is powered on, even if the toner chip is removed or covered with tape. Pros & Cons Risk/Drawback Cost Savings
: Hold the Print Screen/WPS button again for approximately 15 seconds until the LED stays solid green, then release. This report will list the CRUM number . 2. Standard Factory Reset (Non-Firmware Fix)
