This chapter provides information on how to load print media into your machine.
Selecting print media

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meets the guidelines for use with your machine and from the appropriate tray.
Media sizes supported in each mode

Mode Simplex printing Size For details about paper size, see "Print media specifications" on page 62. Letter, A4, Legal, US Folio, Oficio Type For details about paper type, see "Print media specifications" on page 62. Plain, Color, Preprinted, Recycled, Bond, Archive Tray Source
Guidelines for selecting the print media

Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this users guide may cause the following problems: Poor print quality Increased paper jams Premature wear on the machine. Permanent fuser damage, not covered under warranty. Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are important factors that affect the machines performance and the output quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following: The type, size and weight of the print media for your machine are described in print media specifications. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate for your project. Brightness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce sharper, more vibrant images. Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper. Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of the sheets characteristics, improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which cannot be controlled. Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it meets the specifications in this users guide and that it meets your output requirements. Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by the warranty or service agreements. The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media type used. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) Using inflammable print media can cause a fire. Use designated print media (See "Print media specifications" on page 62). Duplex printing (Manual)a

Because the machine is very light, it can move when you open and close the tray or install and remove the toner cartridge. Be careful not to move the machine when performing these tasks. 2. Flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before loading the paper. Insert the paper into the tray. 1. Open the front cover, pinch the paper length guide and pull it out to extend the tray. Then, adjust the tray size to the media size you are loading. (See "Changing the tray size" on page 28.) 2. Flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before loading papers.
3. Place the paper with the side you want to print facing up. 3. Load paper with the print side facing up. Make sure that all four corners are flat in the tray.
Do not overload the tray with paper. Otherwise, it may cause paper jams. 4. Pinch the paper length guide to adjust the guide so that it is flush up against the rear edge of the paper; then pinch the paper width guides so they are flush against the sides of the paper.
When you print a document, set the paper type and size for the tray. For information about setting the paper type and size on the control panel (See "Setting the default tray and paper" on page 27). If you experience problems with paper feeding, check whether the paper meets the media specifications. Then, try placing one sheet at a time in tray (See "Print media specifications" on page 62, "Printing on special media" on page 30). The settings made from the machine driver override the settings on the control panel.
Manual feeding in the tray

The tray can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes. It is useful for single page printing on letterhead or colored paper.
Tips on using the manual feeding method

If you select Paper > Source > Manual Feeder from your printer driver, you need to press each time you print a page. Load only one type, size and weight of print media at a time in the tray. To prevent paper jams, do not add media while printing. Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.
Do not push the paper width guide too far causing the media to warp. Do not use a paper with more than 6 mm (0.24 inch.) curl. If you do not adjust the paper width guide, it may cause paper

When printing on special media, you must follow the loading guideline. (See "Printing on special media" on page 30.) When paper does not feed well while printing, gently push the paper in manually until it starts feeding automatically. Squeeze the tray paper width guides and adjust them to the width of the paper. Do not force them too much, or the paper will bend resulting in a paper jam or skew. Open the output support. To print from an application, open the application and open the print menu. Open Printing Preferences. (See "Opening printing preferences" on page 34.) Click on the Paper tab in Printing Preferences, and select an appropriate paper type. For example, if you want to use a label, set the paper type to Label.
(: supported, Blank: Not supported) The following media types are shown in the Printing Preferences. This paper type option allows you to set the type of paper to be loaded in the tray. Selecting the appropriate media will let you get the best printout quality. Selecting inappropriate media can result in poor print quality. Plain: Normal plain paper. Select this type if your printing on 60 to 120 g/m2 (16 to 32 lbs). Thick: 90 to 163 g/m2 (24 to 43 lbs) thick paper. Thin: 60 to 70 g/m2 (16 to 19 lbs) thin paper. Cotton: 75 to 90 g/m2 (20 to 24 lbs) cotton paper. Color: 75 to 90 g/m2 (20 to 24 lbs) color-back grounded paper. Preprinted: 75 to 90 g/m2 (20 to 24 lbs) preprinted/letterhead paper. Recycled: 60 to 90 g/m2 (16 to 24 lbs) recycled paper. When you use recycled paper, printouts might be wrinkled and/or jamming may occur due to excessive curl. CardStock: 105 to 163 g/m2 (28 to 43 lbs) cardstock. Envelope: 75 to 90 g/m2 (20 to 24 lbs) envelope. Transparency: 138 to 146 g/m2 (37 to 39 lbs) transparency paper.

tray
Media and tray_ 30
Envelopes
Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. To print on an envelope, the stamp area should be on the left side and the end of the envelope with the stamp area should enter the printer first in the center of the tray.
Transparencies
To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for laser printers.
When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors: - Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m2 otherwise, jams may occur. - Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm ( 0.24 inch.) of curl, and should not contain air. - Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, nor damaged. - Temperature: Use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and pressure of the machine during operation. Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp-and well-creased folds. Do not use stamped envelopes. Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials. Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes. Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to the corner of the envelope.
Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand machines fusing temperature. Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine. Do not leave unused transparencies on the paper tray for long periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing. To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle transparencies carefully. To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight. Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges. Do not use transparencies that separate from the backing sheet. To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the printed sheets stack up as they are begin printed out.
Labels
To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for laser machines.
1 Acceptable 2 Unacceptable Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the machines fusing temperature about 170C (338 F) for 0.1 second. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser. For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm ( 0.59 inch.) from the edges of the envelope. Avoid printing over the area where the envelopes seams meet.
When selecting labels, consider the following factors: - Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at your machines fusing temperature (about 170C (338 F)). - Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. - Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.51 inch.) of curl in any direction. - Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.
Media and tray_ 31
Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine components. Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine. Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
surface, and do not allow children near it. The printed pages stack on the output support, and the output support will help the printed pages to align. The printer sends printouts to the output tray by default.
Card stock/Custom-sized paper

Postcards, cards and other custom-sized materials can be printed with this machine.
Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm (3.00 inches) wide or 183 mm (7.20 inches) long. In software applications, set the margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material.
Letterhead/Preprinted paper
Single-sided Face up Double-sided Face down
Letterhead/ Preprinted paper must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machines fusing temperature (about 170C(338 F) for 0.1 second. Letterhead/ Preprinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect machine rollers. Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage. Before you load letterhead/preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.

Printing a machine report Cleaning a machine Storing the toner cartridge Tips for moving & storing your machine
This chapter provides information about maintaining your machine and the toner cartridge.
Printing a machine report

You can print a configuration page to view current printer settings, or to help troubleshoot printer problems. (See "Printing a configuration sheet" on page 22.)
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to cool down. 2. Open the top cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean flat surface.
Cleaning a machine
If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty environment, you need to clean your machine regularly to keep the the most optimum print quality. Cleaning the outside of the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet. If your machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with toner, we recommend that you use a cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air and might be harmful if inhaled. To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary. Do not touch the green surface of the drum located in the toner cartridge or imaging unit. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area. 3. With a dry, lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the toner cartridge area.
Cleaning the outside

Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the machine.
Cleaning the inside

During the printing process, paper dust, toner, and dust particles in the air can accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears and reduces these problems.
While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to damage the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents
Maintenance_ 47
such as benzene or thinner to clean. Printing quality problems can occur and cause damage to the machine. 4. Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the top cover. 5. Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on.
Tips for moving & storing your machine

When moving the machine, do not tilt or turn it upside down. Otherwise, the inside of the machine may be contaminated by toner, which can cause damage to the machine or reduce print quality.
Storing the toner cartridge

Toner cartridges contain components that are sensitive to light, temperature, and humidity. Samsung suggests users follow the recommendations below to ensure the optimum performance, highest quality, and longest life from your new Samsung toner cartridge. Store this cartridge in the same environment as the printer it will be used in; this should be in controlled office temperature and humidity conditions. The toner cartridge should remain in its original, unopened package until installation If original packaging is not available, cover the top opening of the cartridge with paper and store it in a dark cabinet. Opening the cartridge package prior to use dramatically shortens its useful shelf and operating life. Do not store on the floor. If the toner cartridge is removed from the printer, always store the cartridge according to the following guidelines: Inside the protective bag from the original package. Store lying flat (not standing on end) with the same side facing up as if it was installed in the machine. Do not store consumable in any of the following conditions: - Temperature greater than 40C (104F). - Humidity range less than 20% and not greater than 80%. - An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature. - Direct sunlight or room light. - Dusty places. - A car for a long period of time. - An environment where corrosive gases are present. - An environment with salty air.
Handling instructions
Do not touch the surface of the photoconductive drum in the cartridge. Do not expose the cartridge to unnecessary vibrations or shock. Never manually rotate the drum, especially in the reverse direction; this can cause internal damage and toner spillage.
Use of non-Samsung and refilled toner cartridge

Samsung Electronics does not recommend or approve the use of non-Samsung brand toner cartridges in your printer including generic, store brand, refilled, or remanufactured toner cartridges. Samsungs printer warranty does not cover damage to the machine caused by the use of a refilled, remanufactured, or non-Samsung brand toner cartridge.
Estimated cartridge life

Estimated cartridge life (the life of the toner cartridge yield) depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. The actual print yield may vary depending on the print density of the pages you print on, operating environment, printing interval, media type, and/or media size. For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the consumption of the toner is high and you may need to change the cartridge more often.

Redistributing toner Tips for avoiding paper jams Clearing paper jams Solving other problems The tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within the machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it locks into place completely.
This chapter gives helpful information for what to do if you encounter an error.
Redistributing toner
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life: White streaks or light printing occurs. The LED blinks red. If this happens, you can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the toner. 1. Open the top cover. When you open the top cover, make sure that the output tray is closed. 2. Pull the toner cartridge out.
5. Close the top cover. Ensure that the cover is securely closed.
Tips for avoiding paper jams

By selecting the correct media types, most paper jams can be avoided. When a paper jam occurs, refer to the guidelines below: Ensure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly. (See "Loading paper in the tray" on page 29.) Do not overload the tray. Ensure that the paper level is below the paper capacity mark on the inside of the tray. Do not remove paper from the tray while your machine is printing. Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading. Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper. Do not mix paper types in a tray. Use only recommended print media. Ensure that the recommended side of the print media is facing the right side. (See "Loading paper in the tray" on page 29.) If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric. Do not touch the drum in the the toner cartridge or imaging unit. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area. 4. Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge into the opening in the machine. If duplexing, print one sheet at a time using the . (See "Printing on both sides of the paper (Manual)" on page 35.) If you are printing on a special paper, print one sheet at a time using the . (See "Manual feeding in the tray" on page 29.)
3. Thoroughly roll the cartridge five or six times to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.
Clearing paper jams

Troubleshooting_ 53
Printing quality problems

If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, there might be a reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the problem. Condition Light or faded print Suggested Solutions If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page, the toner supply is low. You may be able to temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. (See "Redistributing toner" on page 49.) If this does not improve the print quality, install a new toner cartridge. The paper may not meet paper specification; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low or the toner save mode is on. Adjust the print resolution and turn the toner save mode off. See the help screen of the printer driver. A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 47.) The paper may not meet specification; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine. Contact a service representative. The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a service representative.
Condition White Spots
Suggested Solutions If white spots appear on the page: The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from a paper falls to the inner devices within the machine, so the transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 47.) The paper path may need cleaning. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 47.)
Vertical lines
If black vertical streaks appear on the page: The surface (drum part) of the toner cartridge inside the machine has probably been scratched. Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one. (See "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 58.) If white vertical streaks appear on the page: The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 47.) If the amount of background shading becomes unacceptable: Change to a lighter weight paper. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) Check the environmental conditions: very dry conditions or a high level of humidity (higher than 80% RH) can increase the amount of background shading. Remove the old toner cartridge and, install a new one. (See "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 58.) If toner smears on the page: Clean the inside of the machine. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 47.) Check the paper type and quality. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) Remove the toner cartridge and then, install a new one. (See "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 58.)
Black background
Toner specks
Toner smear
Dropouts
If faded areas, generally rounded, occur randomly on the page: A single sheet of paper may be defective. Try reprinting the job. The moisture content of the paper is uneven or the paper has moist spots on its surface. Try a different brand of paper. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing processes can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper. Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set type to Thick. (See "Opening printing preferences" on page 34.) If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
Vertical repetitive defects
If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even intervals: The toner cartridge may be damaged. If you still have the same problem, remove the toner cartridge and, install a new one. (See "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 58.) Parts of the machine may have toner on them. If the defects occur on the back of the page, the problem will likely correct itself after a few more pages. The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service representative.
Troubleshooting_ 54
Condition Background scatter
Suggested Solutions Background scatter results from bits of toner randomly distributed on the printed page. The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a fresh ream of paper. Do not open packages of paper until necessary so that the paper does not absorb too much moisture. If background scatter occurs on an envelope, change the printing layout to avoid printing over areas that have overlapping seams on the reverse side. Printing on seams can cause problems. If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print quality through your software application or in Printing Preferences. (See "Opening printing preferences" on page 34.) The toner might not adhere properly to this type of paper. Change the printer option and try again. Go to the Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set the paper type to Recycled.
Condition Curl or wave
Suggested Solutions Ensure that the paper is loaded properly. Check the paper type and quality. Both high temperature and humidity can cause paper curl. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) Turn the stack of paper over in the tray. Also try rotating the paper 180 in the tray.

Troubleshooting_ 55
Condition Character Voids
Suggested Solutions Character voids are white areas within parts of characters that should be solid black: If you are using transparencies, try another type of transparency. Because of the composition of transparencies, some character voids are normal. You may be printing on the wrong surface of the paper. Remove the paper and turn it over. The paper may not meet paper specifications. (See "Print media specifications" on page 62.) If horizontally aligned black streaks or smears appear: The toner cartridge may be installed improperly.

Curl
The machine does not print whole pages, and output is printed on half the page.
It is a known problem that occurs when a color machine is used on version 8.51 or earlier of Ghostscript, 64-bit Linux OS, and has been reported to bugs.ghostscript.com as Ghostscript Bug 688252. The problem is solved in AFPL Ghostscript v. 8.52 or above. Download the latest version of AFPL Ghostscript from http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghostscript/ and install it to solve this problem. Avoid changing print job parameters (via LPR GUI, for example) while a print job is in progress. Known versions of CUPS server break the print job whenever print options are changed and then try to restart the job from the beginning. Since Unified Linux Driver locks the port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps the port locked and unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurs, try to release the port by selecting Release port in Port configuration window.
Common Windows problems

Condition File in Use message appears during installation. General Protection Fault, Exception OE, Spool 32, or Illegal Operation messages appear. Fail To Print, A printer timeout error occurred messages appear. Suggested solutions Exit all software applications. Remove all software from the startup group, then restart Windows. Reinstall the printer driver. Close all other applications, reboot Windows and try printing again.
I encounter the Cannot open port device file error when printing a document.
Refer to the Linux Users Guide that came with your computer for further information on Linux error messages.
These messages may appear during printing. Just keep waiting until the machine finishes printing. If the message appears in ready mode or after printing has been completed, check the connection and/or whether an error has occurred.
Refer to the Microsoft Windows Users Guide that came with your computer for further information on Windows error messages.

Common Macintosh problems

condition The machine does not print PDF files correctly. Some parts of graphics, text, or illustrations are missing. The document has printed, but the print job has not disappeared from the spooler in Mac OS X 10.3.2. Some letters are not displayed normally during the Cover page printing. When printing a document in Macintosh with Acrobat Reader 6.0 or higher, colors print incorrectly. Suggested solutions Printing the PDF file as an image may enable the file to print. Turn on Print As Image from the Acrobat printing options. It will take longer to print when you print a PDF file as an image. Update your Mac OS to Mac OS X 10.3.3. or higher.
Mac OS cannot create the font during the Cover page printing. The English alphabet and numbers are displayed normally on the Cover page. Make sure that the resolution setting in your machine driver matches the one in Acrobat Reader.

Charge Coupled Device (CCD) is a hardware which enables the scan job. CCD Locking mechanism is also used to hold the CCD module to prevent any damage when you move the machine.
Collation 802.11b/g/n
802.11b/g/n can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band. 802.11b supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, 802.11n supports bandwidth up to 150 Mbps. 802.11b/g/n devices may occasionally suffer interference from microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and Bluetooth devices. Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collation is selected, the device prints an entire set before printing additional copies.
Control Panel
A control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or monitoring instruments are displayed. They are typically found in front of the machine.
Access point
Access Point or Wireless Access Point (AP or WAP) is a device that connects wireless communication devices together on wireless local area networks (WLAN), and acts as a central transmitter and receiver of WLAN radio signals.
Coverage
It is the printing term used for a toner usage measurement on printing. For example, 5% coverage means that an A4 sided paper has about 5% image or text on it. So, if the paper or original has complicated images or lots of text on it, the coverage will be higher and at the same time, a toner usage will be as much as the coverage.
ADF
An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a scanning unit that will automatically feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan some amount of the paper at once.
