Recommended media: Transparency for a Laser Printers produced by HP, Xerox and 3M. It is not recommended to use paperbacked transparencies such as Xerox 3R91334, which can cause a jam or be scratched. Note •When you use the thick paper (90 ~ 120 g/m2), select Thick Paper in the paper type. See 4.7 page. • When you use the thin paper (under 70g/m2), select Thin Paper in the paper type. See 4.7 page. • When you use the recycled paper, select Recycled Paper in the paper type. See 4.7 page. 4.3 Guidelines for special print media Media type Guidelines Transparencies • To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in laser machines. • Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand the machine’s fusing temperature. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 9.1. • Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine. • Do not leave them in 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 them carefully. • To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight. • Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges. Media type 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 9.1. - 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 • In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm away from the edges of the material. 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 9.1. • 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. Caution Recommended media: Transparency for a Color Laser Printers produced by HP, Xerox and 3M. It is not recommended to use paperbacked transparencies such as Xerox 3R91334, which can cause a jam or be scratched. 4.4 Guidelines Changing the paper size in the tray Loading paper in the tray To load different sizes of paper, such as custom-sized paper, you need to adjust the paper guides.

PDF file does not print correctly-some parts are missing in the graphics, text or illustrations. Incompatibility between the PDF file and the Acrobat products. I encounter error “Unable to open mfp port device file!” when printing a document. Please 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 mfp port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps the port locked and therefore unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurred, please, try to release the mfp port. When printing a document over the network in SuSE 9.2, the printer does not print. 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 later version of CUPS (cups-1.1.22 or higher). 7.13 Printing the PDF file as an image may enable the file to print. Turn on Print As Image from the Acrobat printing options. Note: It will take longer to print when you print a PDF file as an image. 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. Some fonts are not printed properly in the Adobe Illustrator program. Those fonts may not supported by your machine. Start the Adobe Illustrator program, click File > Print > Illustrator tab.

Control Panel Print Media A control panel is a flat area where control or monitoring instruments are displayed. They are typically found in top or front of the machine. Media such as papers, envelopes, labels, and transparencies which can be used on a printer, a scanner, a fax or, a copier. Coverage OPC Drum This is the printing term used for toner usage measurement on printing and generally used as 5% coverage. 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 over 5% and at the same time, toner usage will be as much as the coverage. A mechanism that makes a virtual image for print using a laser beam emitted from a laser printer, and it is usually green or gray-colored and cylinder-shaped. An exposing unit of a drum is slowly worn away by its usage of the printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it becomes scratched from grit in paper. Default PDF The first set values. Portable Document Format (PDF) is a proprietary file format developed by Adobe Systems for representing two-dimensional documents in a device-independent and resolution-independent format. DPI This is the measurement of resolution which is used for printing or scanning. Generally, more dots per inch result in a higher resolution, more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size. PPM Pages Per Minute. PPM shows the printer's speed, how many pages a printer can actually print per minute. Duty Cycle Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer performance 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, which is not small amount. PRN file An interface for a device driver, this allows software to interact with the device driver using standard input/output system calls, which simplifies many tasks. Resolution Fuser Unit The sharpness of an image, measured in dots per inch (dpi). The higher the dpi, the greater the resolution. This is the part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media. It consists of two hot rollers. 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. Print Cartridge It is a kind of bottle within a machine like a printer which contains toner. Toner is a powder used in laser printers and photocopiers which forms the text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be melted by the heat of the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper. Grayscale 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. URL Halftone Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents and resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates what protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the domain name where the resource is located. This is an 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. USB Universal serial bus (USB) is a standard that was developed by the USB Implementers Forum, Inc., to connect computers and peripherals. Unlike the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently connect a single computer USB port to multiple peripherals. ISO The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an international standard-setting body composed of representatives from national standards bodies. It produces world-wide industrial and commercial standards. 10.1 INDEX cleaning insideG6.1 outsideG6.1 control panelG1.2SG1.4 driver featureG2.2 error messageG7.7 jam clearing paper from the trayG7.1 tips for avoiding paper jamsG7.1 paper feeding problemsG7.8 setting the paper size of the trayG4.7 Power switchG1.3 print cartridgeG1.2 print media guidelinesG4.2 selecting print mediaG4.1 specificationG4.3 Printer software CDG2.1 printingG5.1 problem solvingG7.8 printing reportG6.1 problem, solve LinuxG7.13 problems display messageG7.7 MacintoshG7.13 paper feederG7.8 printingG7.8 printing qualityG7.10 WindowsG7.12 Linux requirementsG2.3 Linux problemsG7.13 quality solving the printing problemG7.10 Macintosh problemsG7.13 requirementsG2.3 MaintenanceG6.1 maintenance partsG6.6 print cartridgeG6.3 message on the display screenG7.7 ordering suppliesG8.1 output supportG1.2 output trayG1.2 paper changing the sizeG4.5 clearing jamG7.1 replacing components print cartridgeG6.5 specificationsG9.1SG10.1 supplied softwareG2.1 supplies expected print cartridge lifeG6.3 ordering suppliesG8.1 top coverG1.2 top cover leverG1.2 trayG1.2 adjusting the width and lengthG4.5 tray open buttonG1.2 troubleshootingG7.1 USB portG1.3 Windows problemsG7.12 requirementsG2.2 Samsung Printer Software section SOFTWARE SECTION CONTENTS Chapter 1: INSTALLING PRINTER SOFTWARE IN WINDOWS Installing Printer Software ........................................................................................................ 4 Changing the Software Language .............................................................................................. 5 Reinstalling Printer Software ..................................................................................................... 6 Removing Printer Software ....................................................................................................... 6 Chapter 2: BASIC PRINTING Printing a Document ................................................................................................................ 7 Printing to a file (PRN) ............................................................................................................ 8 Printer Settings ....................................................................................................................... 8 Layout Tab .................................................................................................................... 9 Paper Tab ...................................................................................................................... 9 Graphics Tab ............................................................................................................... 10 Extras Tab ................................................................................................................... 11 About Tab ................................................................................................................... 11 Printer Tab .................................................................................................................. 11 Using a Favorite Setting ................................................................................................ 12 Using Help ................................................................................................................... 12 Chapter 3: ADVANCED PRINTING Printing Multiple Pages on One Sheet of Paper (N-Up Printing) ..................................................... 13 Printing Posters ..................................................................................................................... 14 Printing a Reduced or Enlarged Document ................................................................................ 14 Fitting Your Document to a Selected Paper Size ......................................................................... 14 Using Watermarks ................................................................................................................. 15 Using an Existing Watermark ......................................................................................... 15 Creating a Watermark ................................................................................................... 15 Editing a Watermark ..................................................................................................... 15 Deleting a Watermark ................................................................................................... 15 Using Overlays ...................................................................................................................... 16 What is an Overlay?
