Samsung C1860FW Stuck on Logo? What It Really Means
Samsung C1860FW Stuck on Logo
A Samsung C1860FW stuck on logo problem usually means the printer is freezing before it finishes booting into the normal menu system. When that happens, the touchscreen may show only the Samsung startup screen, the usual menus never appear, and normal fixes like removing the battery, removing memory, or restarting the machine often do very little.
This kind of failure is especially frustrating when you also forgot the administrator password. At that point, two problems get mixed together. One is the startup freeze itself. The other is the loss of administrator access, which blocks firmware tools and deeper recovery options. The important thing is to separate those two issues, because a Samsung C1860FW stuck on logo is often not caused by the password problem...
