4.1 <Selecting and loading print media>4 Selecting and loading print mediaThis chapter introduces you how select and load print media for your machine.This chapter includes:• Selecting print media• Loading paper• Setting the paper size and typeSelecting print mediaYou can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, and labels. Always use print media that meet the guidelines for use with your machine. Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following problems:• Poor print quality• Increased paper jams• Premature wear on the machine.Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are important factors that affect the machine’s 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 later in this section.• 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.CautionUsing print media that does not meet these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by Samsung’s warranty or service agreements.Note• Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which Samsung has no control.• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide. Guidelines for selecting and storing print mediaWhen selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print materials, keep these guidelines in mind:• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on page 4.2.• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper specifically recommended for use in laser machines. • Avoid using the following media types:- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too smooth or too rough- Erasable bond paper- Multi-paged paper- Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper- Carbonless paper and Tracing paper. Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical smells, and damage to your machine.• Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15 °C and 30 °C. The relative humidity should be between 10% and 70%.• Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating your paper.• Load special media types one sheet at a time through the multi-purpose tray to avoid paper jams.• To prevent print media, such as label sheets, from sticking together, remove them as they print out.

When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:- Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m2 or jamming may occur.- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm curl, and should not contain air.- Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.- Temperature: You should 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.AcceptableUnacceptable• Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 10.1. 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 from the edges of the envelope.• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.Labels • To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser machines.• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at your machine’s fusing temperature. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 10.1.- 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 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. 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.Card stock or custom-sized materials• Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm wide or 356 mm long.• In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm away from the edges of the material.Media type Guidelines
4.4 <Selecting and loading print media>Preprinted paper• Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 10.1.• Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect printer rollers.• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage.• Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.Media type Guidelines Loading paperIn the trayLoad the print media you use for the majority of your print jobs in the tray 1. The tray 1 can hold a maximum of 250 sheets of 75 g/m2 (20 lb bond) plain paper. You can purchase an optional tray and attach it below the standard tray to load an additional 500 sheets of paper. (See "Accessories" on page 8.1.)Loading paper in the tray 1 or optional tray1To load paper, pull and open the paper tray and place paper with the side you want to print facing down.2After loading paper, set the paper type and size for the tray 1. See Software section for PC-printing.Note• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at a time in the multi-purpose tray.• You can load previously printed paper. The printed side should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the front. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around. Note that print quality is not guaranteed. FullEmpty
4.5 <Selecting and loading print media>Changing the size of the paper in the paper trayTo load longer sizes of paper, such as Legal-sized paper, you need to adjust the paper guides to extend the paper tray.1Adjust the paper length guide to the desired paper length. It is preset to Letter or A4 size depending on the country. 1tray extend lever2paper length guide3paper width guide2After inserting paper into the tray, while pinching the paper width guide as shown, move it toward the stack of paper until it lightly touches the side of the stack. Do not press the guide too tightly to the edge of the paper; the guide may bend the paper. When you use legal-sized paper, you need to extend the length of the tray.3Press and hold the green lever on the back of the tray, when you are holding the lever, extend the tray to the corresponding position. 4Load the paper into the tray. 5Place the tray into the machine.6Set the paper size from your computer. (See page 4.7)Note• Do not push the paper width guides far enough to cause the materials to warp.• If you do not adjust the paper width guides, it may cause paper jams.
4.6 <Selecting and loading print media>In the multi-purpose trayThe multi-purpose 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 multi-purpose tray• Load only one size of print media at a time in the multi-purpose tray.• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in the multi-purpose tray. This also applies to other types of print media.• Print media should be loaded face down with the top edge going into the multi-purpose tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.• Always load only the specified print media to avoid paper jams and print quality problems. (See "Selecting print media" on page 4.1.)• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the multi-purpose tray.To load paper in the multi-purpose tray:1Hold the handle of multi-purpose tray and pull it down to open.2If you are using paper, flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before loading.3Load the paper.Note If you want to load the used paper, place the paper with the printed side facing down.
4.7 <Selecting and loading print media>4Squeeze the multi-purpose tray paper width guides and adjust them to the width of the paper. Do not force too much, or the paper will be bent, which will result in a paper jam or skew.5After loading paper, set the paper type and size for the multi-purpose tray. See Software section for PC-printing.Note The settings made from the printer driver override the settings on the control panel.6After printing, close the multi-purpose tray.NoteDepending on the media type you are using, keep the following loading guidelines:• Envelopes: Flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left side.• Labels: Print side up and top short edge entering the machine first.• Preprinted paper: Design side up with the top edge toward the machine.• Card stock: Print side up and the short edge entering the machine first.• Previously printed paper: Previously printed side down with an uncurled edge toward the machine.Setting the paper size and typeThe settings you change remain in effect only while you are using the current program.
