Samsung Laser Printers - How to Reset Your SyncThru Password for a Printer with No Display Menu

  2. Open Easy Printer Manager. Click the Easy Printer Manager icon in the task tray on the bottom right of the desktop.
    note:
    If Easy Printer Manager is not installed, click here to open the web-based installer and select the software.
