Tips for Avoiding Paper Jams
By selecting the correct paper types, most paper jams can be
avoided. If a paper jam occurs, follow the steps outlined in
“Clearing Paper Jams” on page 7.4.
• Follow the procedures on page 4.2. Ensure that the
adjustable guides are positioned correctly.
• Do not overload the paper tray.
• Do not remove the paper from the tray while printing.
• Flex, fan, and straighten the paper before loading.
• Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.
• Do not mix paper types in a tray.
• Use only recommended print materials. See “Paper
Specifications” on page 10.1.
• Ensure that the recommended print side of print materials is
facing up in the paper tray and facing down in the Multipurpose Tray.

Solution
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 6.2. If this does not
improve print quality, install a new toner cartridge.
• The paper may not meet paper specifications (for
example, the paper is too moist or too rough). See
“Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.
• A combination of faded or smeared defects may
indicate that the printer needs cleaning. See
page 6.8.
The paper may not meet specifications (for example,
the paper is too moist or too rough). See “Paper
Specifications” on page 10.1.
• 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 “Paper Specifications” on
page 10.1.
• The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing process
can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different
kind or brand of paper.
• The toner cartridge may be defective. See “Vertical
repetitive defects” on the next column.
• If these steps do not correct the problems, contact
a service representative.
If the amount of background shading becomes
unacceptable, the procedures below may fix the
problem.
• Change to lighter weight paper. See “Paper
Specifications” on page 10.1.
• Check the printer's environment; very dry (low
humidity) or high humidity (higher than 80% RH)
conditions can increase the amount of background
shading.
• Remove one of the old toner cartridges and install a
new one.
Toner smear
• Clean the inside of the printer. See “Cleaning the
Inside of the Printer” on page 6.8
• Check the paper type and quality. See “Paper

Inside of the Printer” on page 6.8. If you still have
the same problems, replace the toner cartridge with
a new one. See page 6.4.
7.12
Solving Problems
• Clean the inside of the printer. See “Cleaning the
Inside of the Printer” on page 6.8. After cleaning
the inside of the printer, if you still have the same
problems, install a new toner cartridge of the
problem color. See “Replacing Toner Cartridges” on
page 6.4.
• Parts of the printer 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.
Background scatter results from bits of toner
distributed on the printed page.
• The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a
different batch 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 resolution
through your software application or via the printer
properties window.

These messages may appear during printing. Just

I get a “Some options
are not selected” error
message while editing
the printer settings.
Some printers have conflicting settings, meaning
that some settings for two options can’t be selected
at the same time. When you change a setting and
the Printer Package detects such a conflict, the
conflicting option is changed to a “No Choice” value.
You have to choose an option that does not conflict
before being able to submit the changes.
I can’t make a printer
the system default.
In some conditions, it may not be possible to
change the default queue. This happens with some
variants of LPRng, especially on recent RedHat
systems that use the “printconf” database of
queues.
Problem
NOTE: Refer to the Microsoft Windows 98SE/Me/NT 4.0/2000/
2003/XP User’s Guide that came with your PC for further
information on Windows error messages.
When using printconf, the /etc./printcap file is
automatically refreshed from the database of
printers managed by the system (usually through
the “printtool” command), and the queues in /
etc./printcap.local are appended to the resulting
file. The default queue in LPRng is defined as the
first queue in /etc./printcap, and therefore it is
not possible for the Linux Printer Package to change
the default when some queues have otherwise been
defined using printtool.
Common Macintosh Problems
Problem
Possible Cause and Solution
The printer does not
print a document from
Acrobat Reader.
You should change the Print Method option to
Print as Image when you print from Acrobat
Reader.
The document has
printed, but the print
job has not
disappeared from the
spooler in Mac OS
10.3.2.
Update your Mac OS to OS 10.3.3 or higher.
LPD systems identify the default queue as the one
named “lp”. Thus, if there is already a queue by this
name, and if it doesn’t have an alias, then you won’t
be able to change the default. To work around this,
you can either delete the queue or rename it by
manually editing the /etc./printcap file.
7.16
Solving Problems
Problem
Possible Cause and Solution
Problem
The N-up setting does
not work correctly for
some of my
documents.
The N-up feature is achieved through postprocessing of the PostScript data that is sent to the
printing system. However, such post-processing can
only be adequately achieved if the PostScript data
conforms to the Adobe Document Structing
Conventions. Problems may arise when using N-up
and other features that rely on post-processing if
the document being printed isn’t compliant.
How do I specify the
IP address of my SMB
server?
It can be specified in the “Add Printer” dialogue of
the configuration tool, if you don’t use the CUPS
printing system. Unfortunately, CUPS currently
doesn’t allow you to specify the IP address of SMB
printers, so you will have to be able to browse the
resource with SAMBA in order to be able to print.
Some documents
come out as white
pages when printing.
Some versions of CUPS, especially those shipped
with Mandrake Linux before the 8.1 release, have
some known bugs when processing PostScript
output from some applications. Try upgrading to the
latest version of CUPS (at least 1.1.14). Some RPM
packages for the most popular distributions are
provided as a convenience with this Linux Printing
Package.
I have CUPS and some
options (such as Nup) seem to be always
enabled even though I
don’t choose them in
LLPR.
There may be some local options defined in your ~/
.lpoptions file, which are manipulated by the
lpoptions command. These options are always used
if not overridden by LLPR settings. To get rid of all
options for a printer, run the following command,
replacing “printer” with the name of the queue:
lpoptions -x printer
I configured a printer
to print to a file, but I
get “Permission
denied” errors.
Most printing systems will not run as the super-user
but as a special user (usually “lp”). Therefore, make
sure that the file you have chosen to print to is
accessible to the user owning the spooler daemon.
On my PCL (or GDI)
printer, I sometimes
get error messages
printing instead of my
document.
Unfortunately, some Unix applications may generate
non-compliant PostScript output that may not be
supported by Ghostscript, or even the printer itself
in PostScript mode. You can try to capture the
output to a file and view the results with Ghostscript
(gv or ghostview will allow you to do so
interactively) and see if you get error messages.
However, since the application is probably at fault,
contact your software vendor to inform them of the
issue.
Some color images
come out all black.
This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU
Ghostscript version 7.05) when the base color space
of the document is indexed color space and it is
converted through CIE color space. Because
Postscript uses CIE color space for Color Matching
System, you should upgrade Ghostscript on your
system to at least GNU Ghostscript version 7.06 or
later. You can find recent Ghostscript versions at
www.ghostscript.com.
I am using BSD lpr
(Slackware, Debian,
older distributions)
and some options
chosen in LLPR don’t
seem to take effect.
Legacy BSD lpr systems have a hard limitation on
the length of the option string that can be passed to
the printing system. As such, if you selected a
number of different options, you may have
exceeded the length of the options and some of
your choices won’t be passed to the programs
responsible for implementing them.Try to select
fewer options that deviate from the defaults, to
save on memory usage.
I am trying to print a
document in
Landscape mode, but
it prints rotated and
cropped.
Most Unix applications that offer a Landscape
orientation option in their printing options will
generate correct PostScript code that should be
printed as is. In that case, you need to make sure
that you leave the LLPR option set to its default
Portrait setting, to avoid unwanted rotations of the
page that would result in cropped output.
Some pages come out
all white (nothing is
printed), and I am
using CUPS.
If the data being sent is in Encapsulated PostScript
(EPS) format, some earlier versions of CUPS (1.1.10
and before) have a bug preventing them from being
processed correctly. When going through LLPR to
print, the Printer Package will work around this
issue by converting the data to regular PostScript.
However, if your application bypasses LLPR and
feeds EPS data to CUPS, the document may not
print correctly.
I can’t print to an SMB
(Windows) printer.
To be able to configure and use SMB-shared printers
(such as printers shared on a Windows printer), you
need to have a correct installation of the SAMBA
package that enables that feature. The “smbclient”
command should be available and usable on your
system.
My application seems
to be frozen while
LLPR is running.
Most Unix applications will expect a command like
the regular “lpr” command to be non-interactive
and thus return immediately. Since LLPR is waiting
for user input before passing the job on to the print
spooler, very often the application will wait for the
process to return, and thus will appear to be frozen
(its windows won’t refresh). This is normal and the
application should resume functioning correctly
after the user exits LLPR.

Setting Up a NetworkConnected Printer
You have to set up the network protocols on the printer to use
it as your network printer. Setting protocols can be
accomplished by using the supplied network program. Please
refer to the Network User’s Guide.
If you work in a networked environment, the printer can be
shared by other users on the network.

Using Your Printer on a Network (CLP-600N only)
• Security Mode: “None”, “Static WEP”, or “WPA” The
Samsung print server provides three kinds of Security Modes
(such as “None” Static WEP, and WPA) for easy setting of
wireless network security. “None” security mode is used
when the validation of wireless device's identity and data
encryption are not required for your network. Static WEP
uses WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) algorithm suggested by
IEEE802.11 standard for security. A WEP algorithm provides
data encryption and decryption for data communication.
Static WEP security requires WEP key for data encryption,
decryption, and authentication. WPA provides more security
and better key management than Static WEP by using
IEEE802.1X EAP authentication and dynamic encryption
(such as dynamic WEP, TKIP, AES). WPA cannot be
configured on printer's control panel. In order to choose WPA
as security mode, you must use SWAS (Syncthru Web Admin
Service). For more information about WPA settings, see the
Network User's Guide. The default setting is “None”.
Restoring the Wireless Configuration
• Authentication: “Open System” or “Shared Key”. This
option is available in Static WEP mode only. If required by
your network, the proper authentication method must be
configured on the print server. The default setting is “Open
System”.
You can return the wireless configuration only to its default
settings.
• WEP Encryption: “64-bit WEP” or “128-bit WEP”. This
option is available in Static WEP mode only. If your network
uses Static WEP encryption keys, you must configure the
encryption keys. You can configure up to four keys. The
active key must match the value and active key position (for
example, Key 1) configured on other wireless devices. The
default setting is “64-bit WEP”.

NOTES:
Solution
• Do not use letterhead paper printed with low-temperature
inks, such as those used in some types of thermography.
• Do not use raised or embossed letterhead.
• The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the
paper. Ensure that any colored paper or preprinted forms
use inks that are compatible with this fusing temperature
(180°C or 356°F for 0.1 second).

Ideally, the printer and paper storage environment should be at
or near room temperature, and not too dry or humid.
Remember that paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses
moisture rapidly.
Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the
moisture in paper to evaporate, while cold causes it to
condense on the sheets. Heating systems and air conditioners
remove most of the humidity from a room. As paper is opened
and used, it loses moisture, causing streaks and smudging.
Humid weather or water coolers can cause the humidity to
increase in a room. As paper is opened and used it absorbs any
excess moisture, causing light print and dropouts. Also, as
paper loses and gains moisture it can become distorted. This
can cause paper jams.
Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be
used in a short time (about 3 months). Paper stored for long
periods may experience heat and moisture extremes, which
can cause damage. Planning is important to prevent damage to
large supplies of paper.

Unopened paper in sealed reams can remain stable for several
months before use. Opened packages of paper have more
potential for environment damage, especially if they are not
wrapped with a moisture-proof barrier.
Capacity
250 sheets of 75g/m2 bond paper
The paper storage environment should be properly maintained
to ensure optimum printer performance. The required condition
is 20° to 24°C (68° to 75°F), with a relative humidity of 45%
to 55%. The following guidelines should be considered when
evaluating the paper's storage environment:
Paper Input Capacity

MP tray

• The air should not be too dry or too humid.
Optional tray
500 sheets of 75g/m2 bond paper
• The best way to store an opened ream of paper is to rewrap
it tightly in its moisture-proof wrapping. If the printer
environment is subject to extremes, unwrap only the
amount of paper to be used during the day's operation to
prevent unwanted moisture changes.

Specifications
Envelopes
Envelopes with Adhesive Strips or Flaps
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary
considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within
a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on
envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When
selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one
flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with
the heat and pressure in the printer. The extra flaps and strips
might cause wrinkling, creasing, or even jams and may even
damage the fuser.
• Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed
90g/m2 (24lb) or jamming may occur.
Envelope Margins
• Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with
less than 6mm (0.25in.) curl, and should not contain air.
Type of Address
• 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 printer.
• Size: You should only use envelopes within the following size
ranges.
Minimum
Multi-purpose Tray
3.5 x 5.5in. (90 x
140mm)
The following gives typical address margins for a commercial
#10 or DL envelope.
Minimum
Maximum
Return address
0.6in. (15mm)
2in. (51mm)
Delivery address
2in. (51mm)
3.5in. (90mm)
NOTES:
• For best print quality, position margins no closer than 15mm
(0.6in.) from the edges of the envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams
meet.
Maximum
8.5 x 14in. (216 x
356mm)
Envelope Storage
NOTES:
• Use only the Multi-purpose Tray to print envelopes.
• You may experience some paper jams when using any media
with a length less than 140mm(5.5in.). This may be caused
by paper that has been affected by environmental
conditions. For optimum performance, make sure you are
storing and handling the paper correctly. Please refer to
“Printer and Paper Storage Environment” on page 10.3.
Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality.
Envelopes should be stored flat. If air is trapped in an envelope,
creating an air bubble, then the envelope may wrinkle during
printing. See “Printing on Envelopes” on page 4.4.
Labels
Envelopes with Double Side Seams
Double side-seam construction has vertical seams at both ends
of the envelope rather than diagonal seams. This style may be
more likely to wrinkle. Be sure the seam extends all the way to
the corner of the envelope as illustrated below.
CAUTION:
• To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels recommended
for laser printers.
• To prevent serious jams, always use the Multi-purpose Tray
to print labels and always use the rear output tray.
• Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once and
never print on a partial sheet of labels.
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:
• Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 180°C
(356°F), the printer’s fusing temperature.
Correct
• Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing
between them. Labels can peel off sheets with spaces
between the labels, causing serious jams.
• Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than
5in. (13mm) of curl in any direction.
• Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.
