Loading original documents and paper3.2Selecting print materialsYou can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Always use print materials that meet the guidelines for use with your machine. Paper 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:• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be appropriate for your project.• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the paper adjusters of the paper input tray.• Weight: Your machine supports paper weights as follows:- 16 to 24 lb (60 to 90 g/m2) bond for the paper input tray- 16 to 43 lb (60 to 165 g/m2) bond for the manual feeder. • Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and produce sharper, more vibrant images.• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper.NOTES:• Some paper 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 paper, ensure that the paper meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide. CAUTION: Using paper that does not meet these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by the Samsung warranty or service agreements.Supported paper types and sizesType Size Dimensions WeightaCapacitybPlain paper Letter 215.9 x 279 mm (8.5 x 11 inches)• 60 to 90 g/m2 (16 to 24 lb bond) for the paper input tray• 60 to 165 g/m2 (16 to 43 lb bond) for the manual feeder•250 sheets of 80 g/m2(21 lb bond)paper for the paper input tray•1 sheet of paper for themanual feederLegal 215.9 x 355.6 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)Folio 216 x 330.2 mm (8.5 x 13 inches)A4 210 x 297 mm (8.27 x 11.69 inches)Oficio 216Gx 343 mm(8.5 x 13.5 inches)JIS B5 182 x 257 mm (7.18 x 10.12 inches)ISO B5 176 x 250 mm (6.93 x 9.84 inches)Executive 184.2 x 266.7 mm (7.25 x 10.5 inches)A5 148.5 x 210 mm (5.85 x 8.27 inches)A6 105 x 148.5 mm (4.13 x 5.85 inches)Envelope Envelope B5 176 x 250 mm(6.92 x 9.48 inches)60 to 90 g/m2(16 to 24 lb)1 sheet of paper for the manual feederEnvelope Monarch98.4 x 190.5 mm(3.88 x 7.5 inches)Envelope COM-10105 x 241 mm(4.12 x 9.5 inches)Envelope DL 110 x 220 mm(4.33 x 8.66 inches)Envelope C5 162 x 229 mm(6.38 x 9.02 inches)

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 materials at temperatures between 15oC and 30oC (59oF to 86oF). The relative humidity should be between 10% and 70%.• Store unused paper in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating your paper.• Load special paper types one sheet at a time through the manual feeder to avoid paper jams.• To prevent materials such as transparencies and label sheets from sticking together, remove them as they print out.
Loading original documents and paper3.4Guidelines for special materialsPaper Type GuidelinesEnvelopes • Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:- 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 inches) 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.• 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 of 208° C (406.4° F) for 0.1 second. 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 (0.6 inches) from the edges of the envelope.• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.AcceptableUnacceptableTransparencies • To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in laser printers.• Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand 208° C (406.4° F), the machine’s fusing temperature.• 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.Labels • To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser printers.• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 208° C (406.4° F), the machine’s fusing temperature.- 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 (5 inches) 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 (3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long.• In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material.Paper Type Guidelines
Loading original documents and paper3.5Loading paperIn the paper input trayLoad the print material you use for the majority of your print jobs in the paper input tray. The paper input tray can hold a maximum of 250 sheets of 21 lb (80 g/m2) plain paper. To load paper, pull open the paper input tray and load paper with the side to be printed on face down.You can load letterhead paper with the design side face down. The top edge of the sheet with the logo should be placed at the front of the paper input tray.For details about loading paper in the tray, see page 2.3.NOTES:• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at a time in the manual feeder.• 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 the print quality is not guaranteed.Preprinted paper • Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing temperature of 208° C (406.4° F) for 0.1 second.• 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.Paper Type GuidelinesIn the manual feederUse the manual feeder to print transparencies, labels, envelopes or postcards in addition to making quick runs of paper types or sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper input tray.To load print material in the manual feeder:1Load a sheet of the print material with the side to be printed on facing up into the center of the manual feeder.Depending on the paper type you are using, keep the following loading method:• Envelopes: load a sheet with the flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left side.• Transparencies: load a sheet with the print side up and the top with the adhesive strip entering the machine first.• Labels: load a sheet with the print size up and top short edge entering the machine first.• Preprinted paper: load a sheet with the design face up, top edge toward the machine.• Card: load a sheet with the print side up and the short edge entering the machine first.• Pre printed paper: load a sheet with the printed side down and an uncurled edge toward the machine.
Loading original documents and paper3.62Adjust the manual feeder guides to the width of the print material without bending it.3After loading paper, you need to set the paper type and size for the manual feeder. See page 3.6 for copying or the Software Section for PC-printing.NOTE: The settings made from the printer driver override the settings on the control panel.4If you want to use the rear cover, open the rear cover.Tips on using the manual feeder• Print materials should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the manual feeder first and be placed in the center of the tray.• Always load only the print materials specified in the Specifications on page 3.2 to avoid paper jams and print quality problems.• When you print on 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches) sized media on the manual feeder, open the rear cover to use the rear cover.• Make sure to open the rear cover when you print on transparencies. If not, they may tear while exiting the machine.Setting the paper size and typeAfter loading paper in the paper tray, you need to set the paper size and type using the control panel buttons.

This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears or reduces these problems.1Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to cool down.2Open the front cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean flat surface.CAUTION:• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary. • Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the toner cartridge to avoid touching this area.
Maintenance8.23With a dry lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the toner cartridge area and the toner cartridge cavity.CAUTION: While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to touch the transfer roller, located underneath the toner cartridge. Oil from your fingers can cause print scan quality problems. 4Locate the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the top of the toner cartridge compartment, and gently swab the glass to see if dirt turns the white cotton black.5Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the front cover.6Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on.Cleaning the drumIf there are streaks or spots on your print, the OPC drum of the toner cartridge may require cleaning.1Before starting the cleaning procedure, make sure that paper is loaded in the machine. 2Press Menu until Maintenance appears on the top line of the display.3Press OK when Clean Drum appears. The machine prints out a cleaning page. Toner particles on the drum surface are affixed to the paper. 4If the problem remains, repeat steps 1 through 3.Cleaning the scan unitKeeping the scan unit clean helps ensure the best possible copies. We suggest that you clean the scan unit at the start of each day and during the day, as needed.1Slightly dampen a soft lint-free cloth or paper towel with water.2Open the document cover.3Wipe the surface of the document glass until it is clean and dry.4Wipe the underside of the document cover until it is clean and dry.5Close the document cover.1document cover2document glass
Maintenance8.3Maintaining the toner cartridgeToner cartridge storageTo get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following guidelines in mind:• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until ready for use.• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The machine warranty does not cover damage caused by using a refilled toner cartridge.• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as your machine.• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes.Saving tonerTo save toner, press Menu until Toner Save appears and then pressOK when On appears. Using this feature extends the life of the toner cartridge and reduces your cost per page, but it also reduces print quality. Expected toner cartridge lifeThe life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. When printing text at ISO/IEC 19752 standard page, a new toner cartridge lasts an average of 2,000 pages. (The original toner cartridge supplied with the machine lasts an average of 1,000 pages.) The actual number may be different depending on the print density of the page you print. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the toner cartridge more often.Redistributing the toner cartridgeWhen the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:• White streaks or light printing occurs. • The warning message, Toner Low displays on the control panel.• The Smart Panel program window appears on the computer telling you that the toner cartridge is low on toner.•The Status LED blinks red. If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the toner cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the toner.1Open the front cover.2Pull the toner cartridge out.3Thoroughly roll the toner cartridge 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner evenly inside the toner cartridge.NOTE: If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.CAUTION: Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the toner cartridge to avoid touching this area. 4Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the toner cartridge into the opening in the machine.5Tabs on the sides of the toner cartridge and corresponding grooves within the machine will guide the toner cartridge into the correct position until it locks into place completely.6Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.
Maintenance8.4Replacing the toner cartridgeWhen the toner cartridge is completely empty:• The printer stops printing. • The Smart Panel program window appears on the computer telling you that the toner cartridge is empty.•The Status LED lights red. At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced. For order information for toner cartridges, see page 7.1.1Pull the toner cartridge out.2Remove the new toner cartridge from its bag.3Roll the toner cartridge 5 or 6 items to distribute the toner evenly inside the toner cartridge.Thoroughly rolling the toner cartridge will assure maximum copies per toner cartridge.4Remove the paper protecting the toner cartridge.NOTE: If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.CAUTION: Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the toner cartridge to avoid touching this area. 5Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the toner cartridge into the opening in the machine. 6Tabs on the sides of the toner cartridge and corresponding grooves within the machine will guide the toner cartridge into the correct position until it locks into place completely.7Close the front cover.

If so, scan the document after the received data has been printed.• Graphics are scanned more slowly than text.• Communication speed slows in scan mode because of the large amount of memory required to analyze and reproduce the scanned image. Set your computer to the ECP printer mode through BIOS setting. It will help to increase the speed. For details about how to set BIOS, refer to your computer User’s Guide.
Troubleshooting9.10Common windows problemsNOTE: Refer to Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista User’s Guide that came with your PC for further information on Windows error messages.Message appears on your computer screen:• “Device can't be set to the H/W mode you want.”• “Port is being used by another program.”• “Port is disabled.”•“Scanner is busy receiving or printing data. When the current job is completed, try again.”• “Invalid handle.”• “Scanning has failed.”• There may be a copying or printing job in progress. When that job is complete, try your job again.• The Selected port is currently being used. Restart your computer and try again.• The printer cable may be improperly connected or the power may be off. • The scanner driver is not installed or the operating environment is not set up properly.• Ensure that the machine is properly connected and the power is on, Then restart your computer.• The USB cable may be improperly connected or the power may be off.Condition Suggested solutionsCondition Suggested solutions“File in Use” message appears during installation.Exit all software applications. Remove all software from the StartUp Group, then restart Windows. Reinstall the printer driver.“Error Writing to LPTx” message appears.• Ensure that the cables are connected correctly, the machine is on.• If bi-directional communication is not turned on in the driver, it will also cause this message.“General Protection Fault”, “Exception OE”, “Spool32”, or “Illegal Operation” messages appear.Close all other applications, reboot Windows and try printing again.“Fail To Print”, “A printer timeout error occurred.” messages appear.These messages may appear during printing. Just keep waiting until the machine finishes printing. If the message appears in standby mode or after printing has been completed, check the connection and/or whether an error has occurred.Common Linux ProblemsCondition Suggested solutionsThe machine doesn’t print.• Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open MFP configurator and switch to the Printers tab in Printers configuration window to look at the list of available printers. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the list. If not, please, invoke Add new printer wizard to set up your device.• Check if the printer 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, please, press the Start button. After that normal operation of the printer should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occurred. For instance, this could be an attempt to print document when MFP port is claimed by a scanning application.• Check if the MFP port is not busy. Since functional components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (MFP port), the situation of simultaneous access of different “consumer” application to the same MFP port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other “consumer” will encounter “device busy” response. You should open MFP ports configuration and select the port assigned to your printer. In the Selected port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other application. If this is the case, you should wait for completion of the current job or should press Release port button, if you are sure that the present owner 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 machine does not appear on the scanners list.• Check if your machine is attached to your computer. Make sure that it is connected properly via the USB port and is turned on.• Check if the scanner driver for your machine is installed in your system. Open MFP 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.
Troubleshooting9.11The machine does not appear on the scanners list (continued).• Check if the MFP port is not busy. Since functional components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (MFP port), the situation of simultaneous access of different “consumer” application to the same MFP port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other “consumer” will encounter “device busy” response. This can usually happen while starting scan procedure, and appropriate message box appears.• To identify the source of the problem, you should open MFP ports configuration and select the port assigned to your scanner. MFP 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 some other application. If this is the case, you should wait for completion of the current job or should press Release port button, if you are sure that the present port's owner is not functioning properly.The machine doesn’t scan.• Check if a document is loaded into the machine.• Check if your machine is connected to the computer. Make sure if it is connected properly if I/O error is reported while scanning.• Check if MFP port is not busy. Since functional components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (MFP port), the situation of simultaneous access of different “consumer” application to the same MFP port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device. The other “consumer” will encounter “device busy” response. This can usually happen while starting scan procedure, and appropriate message box will be displayed.To identify the source of the problem, you should open MFP ports configuration and select the port assigned to your scanner. MFP 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 some other application. If this is the case, you should wait for completion of the current job or should press Release port button, if you are sure that the present port’s owner is not functioning properly.Condition Suggested solutionsI can’t print when I installed both Linux Print Package (LPP) and MFP driver on the same machine simultaneously.• Since both Linux Printer Package and MFP driver make a symbolic link to “lpr” printing command, which is commonly used on Unix clones, it is not recommended to use both package on the same machine. • If you still want to use both packages simultaneously, please install the LPP first. • If you want to uninstall only one of them, please uninstall both packages and install that one you want to use again. • If you don’t want to uninstall MFP driver and install it again, you may make the necessary symbolic link yourself. Please, log in as root user and invoke the following command: ln -sf /usr/local/bin/samsung/slpr /usr/bin/lprCan’t 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 detail information, refer to the Help for Linux distribution CD or Gimp Front-end application.If you wish to use other kind of scan application, refer to the Help for application.I encounter error “Unable to open MFP port device file!” when printing a document.Please avoid changing print job parameters (via SLPR utility, 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 Linux MFP 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.Condition Suggested solutions

Advanced Printing16Using OverlaysWhat is an Overlay?An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that can be printed on any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. To print a letter with your company’s letterhead, you do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the printer. You need only tell the printer to print the letterhead overlay on your document.Creating a New Page OverlayTo use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay containing your logo or image.1Create or open a document containing text or an image for use in a new page overlay. Position the items exactly as you wish them to appear when printed as an overlay.2To save the document as an overlay, access printer properties.

Using Your Printer in Linux237Using Your Printer in LinuxYou can use your machine in a Linux environment. This chapter includes:• Getting Started• Installing the Unified Linux Driver• Using the Unified Driver Configurator• Configuring Printer Properties• Printing a Document• Scanning a DocumentGetting StartedThe supplied CD-ROM provides you with Samsung’s Unified Linux Driver package for using your machine with a Linux computer.Samsung’s Unified Linux Driver package contains printer and scanner drivers, providing the ability to print documents and scan images. The package also delivers powerful applications for configuring your machine and further processing of the scanned documents.After the driver is installed on your Linux system, the driver package allows you to monitor a number of machine devices via fast ECP parallel ports and USB simultaneously. The acquired documents can then be edited, printed on the same local or network machine devices, sent by e-mail, uploaded to an FTP site, or transferred to an external OCR system.The Unified Linux Driver package is supplied with a smart and flexible installation program. You don't need to search for additional components that might be necessary for the Unified Linux Driver software: all required packages will be carried onto your system and installed automatically; this is possible on a wide set of the most popular Linux clones.Installing the Unified Linux DriverInstalling the Unified Linux Driver1Make sure that you connect your machine to your computer. Turn both the computer and the machine on.2When the Administrator Login window appears, type in root in the Login field and enter the system password.NOTE: You must log in as a super user (root) to install the printer software. If you are not a super user, ask your system administrator.3Insert the printer software CD-ROM. The CD-ROM will automatically run.If the CD-ROM does not automatically run, click the icon at the bottom of the desktop. When the Terminal screen appears, type in:If the CD-ROM is secondary master and the location to mount is /mnt/cdrom,[root@localhost root]#mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom[root@localhost root]#cd /mnt/cdrom/Linux[root@localhost root]#./install.sh If you still failed to run the CD-ROM, type the followings in sequence:[root@localhost root]#umount/dev/hdc[root@localhost root]#mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdromNOTE: The installation program runs automatically if you have an autorun software package installed and configured.

Using Your Printer in Linux25Using the Unified Driver ConfiguratorUnified Linux Driver Configurator is a tool primarily intended for configuring Printer or MFP devices. Since an MFP device combines the printer and scanner, the Unified Linux Driver Configurator provides options logically grouped for printer and scanner functions. There is also a special MFP port option responsible for the regulation of access to an MFP printer and scanner via a single I/O channel.After installing the Unified Linux driver, the Unified Linux Driver Configurator icon will automatically be created on your desktop.Opening the Unified Driver Configurator1Double-click Unified Driver Configurator on the desktop.You can also click the Startup Menu icon and select Samsung Unified Driver and then Unified Driver Configurator.2Press each button on the Modules pane to switch to the corresponding configuration window. You can use the onscreen help by clicking Help.3After changing the configurations, click Exit to close the Unified Driver Configurator.Printers Configuration buttonScanners Configuration buttonPorts Configuration buttonPrinters ConfigurationPrinters configuration has the two tabs: Printers and Classes.Printers TabYou can see the current system’s printer configuration by clicking on the printer icon button on the left side of the Unified Driver Configurator window.You can use the following printer control buttons:•Refresh: renews the available printers list.•Add Printer: allows you to add a new printer.•Remove Printer: removes the selected printer.•Set as Default: sets the current printer as a default printer.•Stop/Start: stops/starts the printer.•Test: allows you to print a test page to check if the machine is working properly.•Properties: allows you to view and change the printer properties.

Since the MFP 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 Samsung Unified Linux Driver package provides an appropriate port sharing mechanism that is used by Samsung printer and scanner drivers. The drivers address their devices via so-called MFP ports. The current status of any MFP port can be viewed via the Ports Configuration. The port sharing prevents you from accessing one functional block of the MFP device, while another block is in use.When you install a new MFP 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 MFP’s functionality. For MFP scanners I/O ports are being chosen by scanner drivers automatically, so proper settings are applied by default.Switches to ports configuration.Shows the port type, device connected to the port and statusShows all of the available ports.
