Otherwise, the outgoing message from the answering machine will interrupt your phone conversation.Receiving faxes using DRPD modeDistinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables an user to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. The particular number someone uses to call you is identified by different ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short ringing sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who answer telephones for many different clients and need to know which number someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature, your fax machine can learn the ring pattern you designate to be answered. Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be recognized and
Faxing (CLX-3185FN/CLX-3185FW only)_ 96answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will be forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine plugged into the EXT socket. You can easily suspend or change DRPD at any time.Before using the DRPD option, Distinctive Ring service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company.

Since the machine device contains more than one device (printer and scanner), it is necessary to organize proper access of “consumer” applications to these devices via the single I/O port.The Unified Linux Driver package provides an appropriate port sharing mechanism that is used by Samsung printer and scanner drivers. The drivers talk to their devices via so-called machine ports. The current status of any machine port can be viewed via the Ports configuration.The port sharing prevents you from accessing one functional block of the machine device, while another block is in use.When you install a new machine device onto your system, it is strongly recommended you do this with the assistance of an Unified Driver Configurator. In this case you will be asked to choose I/O port for the new device. This choice will provide the most suitable configuration for machine’s functionality. For machine scanners, I/O ports are being chosen by scanner drivers automatically, so proper settings are applied by default.1Shows all of the machine classes.2Shows the status of the class and the number of machines in the class.1Switches to Scanners configuration.2Shows all of the installed scanners.3Shows the vendor, model name and type of your scanner.1Switches to Ports configuration.2Shows all of the available ports.3Shows the port type, device connected to the port, and status.

Samsung suggests users follow the recommendations to ensure the optimum performance, highest quality and longest life from your new Samsung toner cartridge.Store this cartridge in the same environment in which the printer will be used. This should be in controlled office temperature and humidity conditions. The toner cartridge should remain in its original and unopened package until installation – If original packaging is not available, cover the top opening of the cartridge with paper and store 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, follow the instruction below to store the toner cartridge properly.•Store the cartridge 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 40°C (104°F).-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 cartridgeSamsung 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.Samsung’s 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 lifeEstimated 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.MAINTENANCE PARTSTo avoid print quality and paper feed problems resulting from worn parts, and to maintain your machine in top working condition, the following items will need to be replaced after the specified number of pages, or when the life span of each item has expired.We highly recommend that this maintenance be performed by an authorized service provider, dealer or the retailer where you bought the machine. The warranty does not cover the replacement of the maintenance parts after their lifespan.The battery inside the machine is a service component. Do not change it by yourself.There is risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to your local environmental guidelines. Don’t puncture or incinerate the battery.Checking replacablesIf you experience frequent paper jams or printing problems, check the number of pages the machine has printed or scanned.

Troubleshooting_ 133Common Linux problemsCONDITION SUGGESTED SOLUTIONSThe machine does not print.•Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open Unified Driver Configurator and switch to the Printers tab in Printers configuration window to look at the list of available machines. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the list. If not, open Add new printer wizard to set up your device.•Check if the machine is started. Open Printers configuration and select your machine on the printers list. Look at the description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains Stopped string, press the Start button. After that normal operation of the machine should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occurred. For instance, this could be an attempt to print a document when the port is claimed by a scanning application.•Ensure the port is not busy. Since functional components of machine (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (port), the situation of simultaneous access of different user applications to the same port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other user will encounter “device busy” response. You should open ports configuration and select the port assigned to your machine. In the Selected port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other application. If this is the case, you should either wait for completion of the current job or press the Release port button, if you are sure that the present application is not functioning properly.•Check if your application has special print option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter, then remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select “print” -> “Setup printer” and edit command line parameter in the command item.•The CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) version distributed with SuSE Linux 9.2 (cups-1.1.21) has a problem with ipp (Internet Printing Protocol) printing.Use the socket printing instead of ipp or install a later version of CUPS (cups-1.1.22 or higher).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.I cannot scan via Gimp Front-end.Check if Gimp Front-end has Xsane: Device dialog on the Acquire menu. If not, you should install Xsane plug-in for Gimp on the your computer. You can find Xsane plug-in package for Gimp on Linux distribution CD or Gimp home page. For the detailed information, refer to the Help for Linux distribution CD or Gimp Front-end application. If you wish to use another kind of scan application, refer to application’s Help.I encounter the “Cannot open port device file” error when printing a document.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.The machine does not appear on the scanners list.•Ensure your machine is attached to your computer, connected properly via the USB port, and is turned on.•Ensure the scanner driver for your machine is installed in your system. Open Unified Linux Driver configurator, switch to Scanners configuration, then press Drivers. Make sure that driver with a name corresponding to your machine's name is listed in the window. •Ensure the port is not busy. Since functional components of machine (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (port), the situation of simultaneous access of different user applications to the same port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other user will encounter “device busy” response. This usually happens when starting a scan procedure. An appropriate message box appears.To identify the source of the problem, open the Ports configuration and select the port assigned to your scanner, port's symbol /dev/mfp0 corresponds to LP:0 designation displayed in the scanners’ options, /dev/mfp1 relates to LP:1, and so on. USB ports start at /dev/mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to /dev/mfp4 respectively and so forth sequentially. In the Selected port pane, you can see if the port is occupied by another application. If this is the case, you should either wait for completion of the current job or press the Release port button, if you are sure that the present port application is not functioning properly.CONDITION SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS

Glossary_ 145glossaryThe following glossary helps you get familiar with the product by understanding the terminologies commonly used with printing as well as mentioned in this user’s guide.802.11802.11 is a set of standards for wireless local area network (WLAN) communication, developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Commit-tee (IEEE 802). 802.11b/g/n802.11b/g/n can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band. 802.11b supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, 802.11n supports band-width up to 150 Mbps. 802.11b/g/n devices may occasionally suffer interference from microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and Bluetooth devices.Access pointAccess 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. ADFAn Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a scanning unit that will auto-matically feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan some amount of the paper at once. AppleTalkAppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc for computer networking. It was included in the original Macintosh (1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.BIT DepthA computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to repre-sent the color of a single pixel in a bitmapped image. Higher color depth gives a broader range of distinct colors. As the number of bits increases, the number of possible colors becomes impractically large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly called as monochrome or black and white.BMPA bitmapped graphics format used internally by the Microsoft Windows graphics subsystem (GDI), and used commonly as a simple graphics file format on that platform.BOOTPBootstrap Protocol. A network protocol used by a network client to obtain its IP address automatically. This is usually done in the bootstrap process of computers or operating systems running on them. The BOOTP servers assign the IP address from a pool of addresses to each client. BOOTP enables 'diskless workstation' computers to obtain an IP address prior to loading any advanced operating system.CCDCharge 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.CollationCollation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When colla-tion is selected, the device prints an entire set before printing additional copies.Control PanelA control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or monitor-ing instruments are displayed. They are typically found in front of the machine.CoverageIt 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.CSVComma Separated Values (CSV). A type of file format, CSV is used to exchange data between disparate applications. The file format, as it is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a de facto standard throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.DADFA Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a scanning unit that will automatically feed and turn over an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan on both sides of the paper.DefaultThe value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its box state, reset, or initialized.DHCPA Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server net-working protocol. A DHCP server provides configuration parameters specific to the DHCP client host requesting, generally, information required by the client host to participate on an IP network. DHCP also provides a mechanism for allocation of IP addresses to client hosts.DIMMDual Inline Memory Module (DIMM), a small circuit board that holds memory. DIMM stores all the data within the machine like printing data, received fax data.
Glossary_ 146DLNAThe Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a standard that allows devices on a home network to share information with each other across the network.DNSThe Domain Name Server (DNS) is a system that stores information associated with domain names in a distributed database on networks, such as the Internet.Dot Matrix PrinterA dot matrix printer refers to a type of computer printer with a print head that runs back and forth on the page and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like a typewriter.DPIDots Per Inch (DPI) is a measurement of resolution that is used for scan-ning and printing. Generally, higher DPI results in a higher resolution, more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size.DRPDDistinctive Ring Pattern Detection. Distinctive Ring is a telephone com-pany service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers.DuplexA mechanism that will automatically turn over a sheet of paper so that the machine can print (or scan) on both sides of the paper. A printer equipped with a Duplex Unit can print on both sides of paper during one print cycle.Duty CycleDuty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer perfor-mance for a month. Generally the printer has the lifespan limitation such as pages per year. The lifespan means the average capacity of print-outs, usually within the warranty period. For example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 pages per month assuming 20 working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages a day.ECMError Correction Mode (ECM) is an optional transmission mode built into Class 1 fax machines or fax modems. It automatically detects and cor-rects errors in the fax transmission process that are sometimes caused by telephone line noise.EmulationEmulation is a technique of one machine obtaining the same results as another.An emulator duplicates the functions of one system with a different sys-tem, so that the second system behaves like the first system. Emulation focuses on exact reproduction of external behavior, which is in contrast to simulation, which concerns an abstract model of the system being simulated, often considering its internal state.EthernetEthernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical layer, and frame formats and protocols for the media access control (MAC)/data link layer of the OSI model. Ethernet is mostly standardized as IEEE 802.3. It has become the most widespread LAN technology in use during the 1990s to the present.EtherTalkA suite of protocols developed by Apple Computer for computer net-working. It was included in the original Macintosh (1984) and is now dep-recated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking. FDIForeign Device Interface (FDI) is a card installed inside the machine to allow a third party device such as a coin operated device or a card reader. Those devices allow the pay-for-print service on your machine.FTPA File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a commonly used protocol for exchang-ing files over any network that supports the TCP/IP protocol (such as the Internet or an intranet).Fuser Unit The part of a laser printer that fuses the toner onto the print media. It consists of a heat roller and a pressure roller. After toner is transferred onto the paper, the fuser unit applies heat and pressure to ensure that the toner stays on the paper permanently, which is why paper is warm when it comes out of a laser printer.GatewayA connection between computer networks, or between a computer net-work and a telephone line. It is very popular, as it is a computer or a net-work that allows access to another computer or network.GrayscaleA shades of gray that represent light and dark portions of an image when color images are converted to grayscale; colors are represented by various shades of gray.HalftoneAn image type that simulates grayscale by varying the number of dots. Highly colored areas consist of a large number of dots, while lighter areas consist of a smaller number of dots.HDDHard Disk Drive (HDD), commonly referred to as a hard drive or hard disk, is a non-volatile storage device which stores digitally-encoded data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces.IEEEThe Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is an interna-tional non-profit, professional organization for the advancement of tech-nology related to electricity.

The term "1284-B" refers to a specific connector type on the end of the parallel cable that attaches to the peripheral (for example, a printer). IntranetA private network that uses Internet Protocols, network connectivity, and possibly the public telecommunication system to securely share part of an organization's information or operations with its employees. Some-times the term refers only to the most visible service, the internal web-site.IP addressAn Internet Protocol (IP) address is a unique number that devices use in order to identify and communicate with each other on a network utilizing the Internet Protocol standard.IPMThe Images Per Minute (IPM) is a way of measuring the speed of a printer. An IPM rate indicates the number of single-sided sheets a printer can complete within one minute.IPPThe Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) defines a standard protocol for print-ing as well as managing print jobs, media size, resolution, and so forth. IPP can be used locally or over the Internet to hundreds of printers, and also supports access control, authentication, and encryption, making it a much more capable and secure printing solution than older ones.IPX/SPXIPX/SPX stands for Internet Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange. It is a networking protocol used by the Novell NetWare oper-ating systems. IPX and SPX both provide connection services similar to TCP/IP, with the IPX protocol having similarities to IP, and SPX having similarities to TCP. IPX/SPX was primarily designed for local area net-works (LANs), and is a very efficient protocol for this purpose (typically its performance exceeds that of TCP/IP on a LAN).ISOThe International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an interna-tional standard-setting body composed of representatives from national standards bodies. It produces world-wide industrial and commercial standards.ITU-TThe International Telecommunication Union is an international organiza-tion established to standardize and regulate international radio and tele-communications. Its main tasks include standardization, allocation of the radio spectrum, and organizing interconnection arrangements between different countries to allow international phone calls. A -T out of ITU-T indicates telecommunication.ITU-T No. 1 chartStandardized test chart published by ITU-T for document facsimile transmissions.JBIGJoint Bi-level Image Experts Group (JBIG) is an image compression standard with no loss of accuracy or quality, which was designed for compression of binary images, particularly for faxes, but can also be used on other images.JPEGJoint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) is a most commonly used standard method of lossy compression for photographic images.

MAC address is a unique 48-bit identifier usually written as 12 hexadecimal characters grouped in pairs (e. g., 00-00-0c-34-11-4e). This address is usually hard-coded into a Network Interface Card (NIC) by its manufacturer, and used as an aid for routers trying to locate machines on large networks.MFPMulti Function Peripheral (MFP) is an office machine that includes the following functionality in one physical body, so as to have a printer, a copier, a fax, a scanner and etc.MHModified Huffman (MH) is a compression method for decreasing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted between the fax machines to transfer the image recommended by ITU-T T.4. MH is a code-book-based run-length encoding scheme optimized to efficiently com-press white space. As most faxes consist mostly of white space, this minimizes the transmission time of most faxes. MMRModified Modified READ (MMR) is a compression method recom-mended by ITU-T T.6.ModemA device that modulates a carrier signal to encode digital information, and also demodulates such a carrier signal to decode transmitted infor-mation.MRModified Read (MR) is a compression method recommended by ITU-T T.4. MR encodes the first scanned line using MH. The next line is com-pared to the first, the differences determined, and then the differences are encoded and transmitted.
Glossary_ 148NetWareA network operating system developed by Novell, Inc. It initially used cooperative multitasking to run various services on a PC, and the net-work protocols were based on the archetypal Xerox XNS stack. Today NetWare supports TCP/IP as well as IPX/SPX.OPCOrganic Photo Conductor (OPC) is a mechanism that makes a virtual image for print using a laser beam emitted from a laser printer, and it is usually green or rust colored and has a cylinder shape. An imaging unit containing a drum slowly wears the drum surface by its usage in the printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it gets worn from contact with the cartridge development brush, cleaning mech-anism, and paper.OriginalsThe first example of something, such as a document, photograph or text, etc, which is copied, reproduced or translated to produce others, but which is not itself copied or derived from something else.OSIOpen Systems Interconnection (OSI) is a model developed by the Inter-national Organization for Standardization (ISO) for communications. OSI offers a standard, modular approach to network design that divides the required set of complex functions into manageable, self-contained, func-tional layers.
