Although HP has drivers for the CLX 3185 FW, that driver support ended with macOS Mojave (10.13) in 2017, and without recompiling those drivers with a macOS 14 (Sonoma) SDK, it is almost certain those old Samsung drivers will not work in Sonoma. This device is not found in Apple's built-in AirPrint listing either.


This would suggest that you are in the market for a new printer unless you connect this printer to a Windows 11 machine as HP offers universal Samsung Windows drivers for this device which were updated in Jul 2024.
