Too bulky and cumbersome. Go to a web interface. Follow link to install device. Choose device from a list ... I prefer to read up on the syntax of a config file or two, and just edit them, or write them out if they aren't already there. On a related note, I recently had to replace my almost 20-year-old hp laserJet 5l because the part that broke couldn't be replaced. So, I replaced it with a samsung m28253dw. I was struggling to configure everything how I wanted through a less than fully accessible web interface, and found myself wishing more than once during the process that the darned printer had a telnet interface or something more straight forward.
