7.6 PROBLEM SOLVING
Clearing Paper Jams
Occasionally, paper can become jammed during a print job. Some of the causes include:
• The paper tray is loaded improperly or overfilled.
• The paper tray has been pulled out during a print job.
• The top cover has been opened during a print job.
• Paper that does not meet paper specifications has been used. See “Paper Specifications” on
page A.2.
• Paper that is outside of the supported size range has been used. See “Paper Specifications”
on page A.2.
If a paper jam occurs, the Paper and the Error lights remain lit on the control panel. Find
and remove the jammed paper. If the location of the paper jam is not obvious, look inside the
printer.
Output Area
Note: Paper jams in this area may result in loose toner on the page. If you get any toner on your
clothes, wash them in cold water because hot water will set the toner into the fabric.
If the paper is almost completely visible
from the top output tray, pull the
remaining paper carefully out of the
printer.
PROBLEM SOLVING 7.7
Clearing Paper Jams
If the jammed paper is not visible or
there is resistance when you pull the
paper, open the rear output tray.
Remove the stopper fastening the rear
output tray, and push the tray down so
that it is open at 90 degrees angle.
If there is resistance when you pull the
paper, squeeze the handle on the right
end of the exit roller 1 , then pull the
roller in the direction of arrow 2 .
Exit roller
Remove the jammed paper.
7.8 PROBLEM SOLVING
Clearing Paper Jams
Replace the exit roller.
Make sure that you click the right
end of the roller back in place. If you
fail to do so, the printer system will
recognizes that the printer cover is open
or that a system fuser error has
occurred, and the Error light on the
control panel will turn on.
Replace the stopper and close the rear
output tray.
To resume printing, open the top cover,
and then close it close it again.
Note: If the Paper and the Error lights do
not turn off, there is still jammed paper
inside the printer. Check the input area
and the inside of the printer.
PROBLEM SOLVING 7.9
Clearing Paper Jams
Input Area
Note: If paper has entered the toner cartridge area, follow the instructions on page 7.12. It is easier to
remove such jams from the inside of the printer than the paper input area.
Slide out Tray 1 to expose the jammed
paper.
Remove any misfed paper by pulling it
out by the visible edge from the tray.
Make sure that all of the paper is
properly aligned in the tray.
Note: If the paper is jammed in the
paper feed area and cannot be
accessed from inside the printer, remove
Tray 1 from the printer and carefully pull
the jammed paper free from the printer.
7.10 PROBLEM SOLVING
Clearing Paper Jams
Slide the tray back into the printer.
To resume printing, open the top cover,
and then close in again.

do not turn off, there is still jammed paper
inside the printer. Check the inside of the
printer.
PROBLEM SOLVING 7.11
Clearing Paper Jams
Inside the Printer
Note: Paper jams in this area may result in loose toner on the page. If you get any toner on your
clothes, wash them in cold water because hot water will set the toner into the fabric.
Open the top cover and remove the
toner cartridge.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the
toner cartridge, do not expose it to light
for more than a few minutes. Place a
piece of paper over the top of the toner
cartridge to shield it while it is out of the
printer.
Carefully lift up the guide feed.

Paper Specifications
Printer and Paper Storage Environment
Ideally, the printer and paper storage environment should be
at or near room temperature, and not too dry or humid.
Remember that paper 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 distort. This can cause
paper jams.
As a result, paper storage and handling are as important as
the paper-making process itself. Paper storage environmental
conditions directly affect the feed operation.
Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be
easily 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 a large supply 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.
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 helpful when
evaluating the paper’s storage environment:
• Paper should be stored at or near room temperature.
• The air should not be too dry or too humid (due to the
hygroscopic properties of 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.
A.6 SPECIFICATIONS
Paper Specifications
Envelopes
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 components:
• Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed
90 g/m2 (24 lb) or jamming may occur.
• Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with
less than 6 mm (0.25 in.) 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 printer.
• Size: You should only use envelopes within the following size
ranges.
Minimum
Maximum
Multi-Purpose
Tray
90 X 148 mm
(3.5 X 5.83 in.)

Optional Tray 2
148 X 210 mm
(5.83 X 8.3 in.)
216 X 356 mm
(8.5 X 14 in.)
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 148 mm (5.83 in.). 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 A.6.
SPECIFICATIONS A.7
Paper Specifications
Envelopes with
Double Side Seams
Double side-seams 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.
Correct
Incorrect
Envelopes with
Adhesive Strips or
Flaps
Envelope Margins
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.
The following gives typical address margins for a commercial
#10 or DL envelope.
Type of Address
Minimum
Maximum
Return address
15 mm (0.6 in.)
51 mm (2 in.)
Delivery address
51 mm (2 in.)
89 mm (3.5 in.)
Notes:
• For best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm
(0.6 in.) from the edges of the envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.
Envelope Storage
A.8 SPECIFICATIONS
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 4.12.
Paper Specifications
Labels
CAUTIONS:
• 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
200 °C (392 °F), the printer’s fusing temperature.
• 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
13 mm (.5 in.) of curl in any direction.
• Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.
See “Printing on Labels” on page 4.14.
Transparencies
Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand
200 °C (392 °F), the printer’s fusing temperature.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the printer, use only
transparencies recommended for use in laser printers.
See “Printing on Transparencies” on page 4.15.

CONFIG
• Emulation You can select the emulation for printing a document
between AUTO and PCL. The factory default is AUTO.
• Power Save determines the length of time the printer waits
after a job is printed before it goes to a reduced power state. If
the printer is used frequently, select Off which keeps the printer
ready to print with the minimum warm-up time. This uses more
electricity to keep the printer warm and ready to print.
• Auto Continue determines what action the printer should take
when a manual feed print job is sent to the printer and there is
no paper in the Multi-Purpose Tray. If it is checked, the printer
will pick up the paper from the standard Tray 1 or optional Tray
2 after fifteen seconds. Otherwise, the printer will wait for you
to load paper in the Multi-Purpose Tray.
• Jam Recovery determines what action the printer should take
when a paper jam occurs. If it is unchecked, the printer does
not reprint a page that has jammed. If it is checked, the printer
keeps the image in memory for a printed page until the printer
signals that the page has successfully printed. The printer
reprints all jammed pages.

F Printer Options
Your printer is a full-featured laser printer that has been
optimized to meet most of your printing needs. Recognizing
that each user may have different requirements, however,
Samsung makes several options available to enhance the
printer’s capabilities.
This appendix provides information on the following topics:
◆ Precautions
◆ Memory and PostScript SIMMs
◆ Network Interface Card
◆ Paper Tray 2
Precautions
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD:
Never remove the printer control board while the printer is
plugged in.
To avoid the possibility of electrical shock, always disconnect the
power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external
printer option.
DISCHARGE STATIC ELECTRICITY:
The control board and internal printer options (Memory SIMM,
PS SIMM, Network interface) are sensitive to static electricity.
Before installing or removing an internal option, discharge static
electricity from your body by touching something metal, such as
the metal back plate on any device plugged into a grounded
power source. If you walk round before finishing the installation,
discharge any static electricity once again.
PRINTER OPTIONS F.1
Memory and PostScript SIMMs
Additional printer memory and the PostScript option are provided on SIMMs (single in-line
memory modules). This procedure is applicable to either option.
Notes:
• Since PostScript setting requires 12 MB of printer memory and the ML-1450 comes with
4 MB standard, installation of the PS SIMM requires installation of a 8 MB SIMM memory as well.
• ML-1451N has 16 MB RAM standard, so additional memory is not required to install option PS
SIMM.
Turn the printer power off and unplug
all cables from the printer.
Remove the two screws on the rear of
the printer, then remove the control
board cover.
Locate the PS SIMM slot (the lower slot
on the left as shown) and the memory
SIMM slot (the upper slot) on the
