Loading in manual feeder

The manual feeder can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes (see "Print media specifications" on page 115).

Tips on using the manual feeder

• Load only one type, size and weight of print media at time in the manual feeder.

• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper while printing when there is still paper in the manual feeder.

• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the manual feeder first and be placed in the center of the tray.

• To ensure printing quality and to prevent paper jams, only load the available paper (see "Print media specifications" on page 115).

• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the manual feeder.

• When printing on special media, you must follow the loading guidelines (see "Printing on special media" on page 41).

• When papers overlap when printing using the manual feeder, open tray and remove the papers then try printing again.

• When paper does not feed well while printing, push the paper in manually until it starts feeding automatically.

• When the machine is in a power save mode, the machine does not feed paper from the manual feeder. Wake up the machine by pressing the power button before

using the manual feeder.

2. Menu Overview and Basic Setup

• 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.

1 Acceptable

2 Unacceptable

• 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 for 0.1 second about 170°C (338 °F). The extra flaps and strips

might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser

unit.

• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm from the

edges of the envelope.

• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.

Transparency

To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in

laser printers.

• Must withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.

• Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.

• Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long. 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 and tray

2. Menu Overview and Basic Setup

• Do not use transparencies that separate from the backing sheet.

• To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the printed

sheets stack up as they are being printed out.

• Recommended media: Transparency for a color laser printer by Xerox, such

as 3R 91331(A4), 3R 2780 (Letter).

Labels

To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser

printers.

• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:

-Adhesives: Should be stable at your machine’s fusing temperature.

Check your machine’s specifications to view the fusing temperature

(about 170°C (338°F)).

-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: Must lie flat with no more than 13 mm of curl in any direction.

Media and tray

2. Menu Overview and Basic Setup

-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/ Custom-sized paper

• In the software application, set the margins to at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches)

away from the edges of the material.

Media and tray

2. Menu Overview and Basic Setup

Preprinted paper

When loading preprinted paper, the printed side should be facing up with an

uncurled edge at the front. If you experience problems with paper feeding, turn

the paper around. Note that print quality is not guaranteed.

• Must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or

release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing

temperature for 0.1 second (about 170°C (338°F)).

• Preprinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely

affect machine rollers.

• Before you load preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry.

During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing

print quality.

Setting the paper size and type

After loading paper in the paper tray, set the paper size and type using the

control panel buttons.

The paper setting in the machine and driver should match to print without a

paper mismatch error.

To change the paper setting set in the machine, from the Samsung Easy Printer

Manager select (Switch to advanced mode) > Device Settings.

Or if your machine supports a display screen, you can set it using the (Menu)

button on the control panel.

3. Maintenance

Storing the toner cartridge

Toner cartridges contain components that are sensitive to light, temperature

and humidity. Samsung suggests users follow these recommendations to

ensure optimal 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 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 instructions 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

were installed in the machine.

• Do not store consumables in any of the following conditions:

-Temperature greater than 40°C (104°F).

-Humidity range less than 20% or 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.

Toner cartridge usage

Samsung 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

cartridges.

Storing the toner cartridge

3. Maintenance

Estimated cartridge life

Estimated 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, percentage of image area, printing interval, media type and/or

media size. For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the consumption of the

toner is higher and you may need to change the cartridge more often.

3. Maintenance

Redistributing toner

When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:

• White streaks or light printing occurs and/or density variation side to side.

• The Status LED blinks red.

If this happens, you can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still

occur even after you have redistributed the toner.

• Illustrations on this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on its options or models. Check your machine type (see "Machine overview" on page

18).

• 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.

• 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 area of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

• Do not use sharp objects such as a knife or scissors to open the toner cartridge package. They might scratch the drum of the cartridge.

• 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.

Fax Branding

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any

person to use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a

telephone facsimile machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin

at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of the

transmission the following information:

1 the date and time of transmission

2 identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the

message; and

3 telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business entity

or individual.

The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities,

equipment operations or procedures where such action is reasonably required

in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and

regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to render

any customer terminal equipment incompatible with telephone company

communications facilities, or require modification or alteration of such terminal

equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or performance, the customer

shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow the customer an opportunity

to maintain uninterrupted service

Ringer Equivalence Number

The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this machine

may be found on the label located on the bottom or rear of the machine. In some

instances you may need to provide these numbers to the telephone company.

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed

on the telephone line, and is useful for determining whether you have

“overloaded” the line. Installing several s of equipment on the same telephone

line may result in problems making and receiving telephone calls, especially

ringing when your line is called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of

the equipment on your telephone line should be less than five in order to assure

proper service from the telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may

not be usable on your line. If any of your telephone equipment is not operating

properly, you should immediately remove it from your telephone line, as it may

cause harm to the telephone network.

Low power, Radio LAN type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless

communication devices), operating in the 2.4 GHz/5 GHz band, may be present

(embedded) in your printer system which is intended for home or office use. This

section is only applicable if these devices are present. Refer to the system label

to verify the presence of wireless devices.

The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be embedded in

you printer is well below the RF exposure limits as set by the European

Commission through the R&TTE directive.

European states qualified under wireless approvals:

EU countries

European states with restrictions on use:

EEA/EFTA countries

Wireless guidance

Low power, Radio LAN devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication

devices), operating in the 2.4 GHz/5 GHz Band, may be present (embedded) in

your printer system. The following section is a general overview of

considerations while operating a wireless device.

Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for specific countries are listed in

the specific country sections (or country group sections). The wireless devices in

your system are only qualified for use in the countries identified by the Radio

Approval Marks on the system rating label. If the country you will be using the

wireless device in, is not listed, contact your local Radio Approval agency for

requirements. Wireless devices are closely regulated and use may not be

allowed.

The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be embedded in

your printer is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because

the wireless devices (which may be embedded into your printer) emit less

energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety standards and

recommendations, manufacturer believes these devices are safe for use.

Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to minimize human contact

during normal operation.

As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless

device and the body, for use of a wireless device near the body (this does not

include extremities) is typical. This device should be used more than 20 cm (8

inches) from the body when wireless devices are on and transmitting.

This transmitter must not be collocated or operation in conjunction with any

other antenna or transmitter.

Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of

common restrictions are listed below:

Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment

on commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless

devices to be turned off while traveling in an airplane. IEEE 802.11 (also

known as wireless Ethernet) and Bluetooth communication devices are

examples of devices that provide wireless communication.

Regulatory information

134

5. Appendix

In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or

services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless

device may be restricted or eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen

or flammable gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use of

wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When in environments

where you are uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices, ask the

applicable authority for authorization prior to use or turning on the

wireless device.

Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless devices.

Since your system is equipped with a wireless device, when traveling

between countries with your system, check with the local Radio

Approval authorities prior to any move or trip for any restrictions on the

use of a wireless device in the destination country.

If your system came equipped with an internal embedded wireless

device, do not operate the wireless device unless all covers and shields

are in place and the system is fully assembled.

Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any

way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use

it. Contact manufacturer for service.

Only use drivers approved for the country in which the device will be

used. See the manufacturer System Restoration Kit, or contact

manufacturer Technical Support for additional information.

Getting started

Understanding your network type

Typically, you can only have one connection between your computer and the

machine at a time.

Wireless network name and network password

Wireless networks require higher security, so when an access point is first set up,

a network name (SSID), the type of security used, and a Network Password are

created for the network. Ask your network administrator about this information

before proceeding with the machine installation.

Infrastructure mode

This is an environment generally used for homes and SOHOs

(Small Office/ Home Office). This mode uses an access point to

communicate with the wireless machine.

Ad hoc mode

This mode does not use an access point. The wireless

computer and wireless machine communicate directly.

Overlays are often used to take the place of letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing

exactly the 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 machine: just print the letterhead overlay on your document.

To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay containing your logo or image.

• The overlay document size must be the same as the document you print with the overlay. Do not create an overlay with a watermark.

Printing quality problems

If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, there might be a reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the problem.

Condition Suggested solutions

Light or faded print • If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page, the toner supply is low. Install a new toner cartridge (see "Replacing the

toner cartridge" on page 76).

• The paper may not meet paper specifications; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough.

• If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low or the toner save mode is on. Adjust the print resolution and turn

the toner save mode off. See the help screen of the printer driver.

• A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. Clean the inside of your machine

(see "Cleaning the machine" on page 83).

• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page

83). If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.

The top half of the paper is

printed lighter than the rest of

the paper

The toner might not adhere properly to this type of paper.

• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set the paper type to Recycled (see

"Opening printing preferences" on page 53).

6. Troubleshooting

Toner specks • The paper may not meet specifications; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough.

• The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 83).

• The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a service representative (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 83).

Dropouts If faded areas, generally rounded, occur randomly on the page:

• 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.

• The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing processes can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper.

• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set type to Thick (see "Opening

printing preferences" on page 53).

If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.

White Spots If white spots appear on the page:

• The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from paper falls to the inner components within the machine, so the transfer roller may be

dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 83).

• The paper path may need cleaning. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 83).

If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.

6. Troubleshooting

Vertical lines If black vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The surface (drum part) of the cartridge inside the machine has probably been scratched. Remove the cartridge and install a new

one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 76, "Replacing the imaging unit" on page 79).

If white vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page

83). If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.

Black or color background If the amount of background shading becomes unacceptable:

• Change to a lighter weight paper.

• Check the environmental conditions: very dry conditions or a high level of humidity (higher than 80% RH) can increase the amount

of background shading.

• Remove the old toner cartridge and install a new one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 76).

• Thoroughly redistribute the toner (see "Redistributing toner" on page 73).

Toner smear • Clean the inside of the machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 83).

• Check the paper type and quality.

• Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 76).

Condition Suggested solutions

Printing quality problems

6. Troubleshooting

Vertical repetitive defects If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even intervals:

• The toner cartridge may be damaged. If you still have the same problem, remove the toner cartridge and, install a new one (see

"Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 76).

• Parts of the machine 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 Background scatter results from bits of toner randomly 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.

Or select Thick from the Printing Preferences window (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 53).

• If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print resolution through your software application

or in Printing Preferences (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 53). Ensure the correct paper type is selected. For example:

If Thicker Paper is selected, but Plain Paper actually used, an overcharging can occur causing this copy quality problem.

• If you are using a new toner cartridge, redistribute the toner first (see "Redistributing toner" on page 73).

Toner particles are around bold

characters or pictures

The toner might not adhere properly to this type of paper.

• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set the paper type to Recycled (see

"Opening printing preferences" on page 53).

• Ensure the correct paper type is selected. For example: If Thicker Paper is selected, but Plain Paper actually used, an overcharging

can occur causing this copy quality problem.

• Remove the toner cartridge and then, install a new one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 76).

If the problem persists, the machine may require repair. Contact a service representative.

Character voids Character voids are white areas within parts of characters that should be solid black:

• If you are using transparencies, try another type of transparency. Because of the composition of transparencies, some character

voids are normal.

• You may be printing on the wrong surface of the paper. Remove the paper and turn it around.

• The paper may not meet paper specifications.

Horizontal stripes If horizontally aligned black streaks or smears appear:

• The toner cartridge may be installed improperly. Remove the cartridge and reinsert it.

6. Troubleshooting

Copying problems

Condition Suggested solutions

Copies are too light or too dark. Adjust the darkness in copy feature to lighten or darken the backgrounds of copies (see "Changing the settings for each copy" on page

58).

If the defect still appears after

cleaning the machine.

set the Copy Feature > Adjust Bkgd. > Auto. (see "Menu overview" on page 30).

Smears, lines, marks, or spots

appear on copies.

• If the defects are on the original, adjust darkness in copy feature to lighten the background of your copies.

• If there are no defects on the original, clean the scan unit (see "Cleaning the scan unit" on page 88).

Copy image is skewed. • Ensure that the original is aligned with the registration guide.

• The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 83).

Blank copies print out. Ensure that the original is face down on the scanner glass or face up in the document feeder.

If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.

Image rubs off the copy easily. • Replace the paper in the tray with paper from a new package.

• In high humidity areas, do not leave paper in the machine for extended periods of time.

Frequent copy paper jams

occur.

• Fan the paper, then turn it over in the tray. Replace the paper in the tray with a fresh supply. Check/adjust the paper guides, if

necessary.

• Ensure that the paper is the proper type and weight (see "Print media specifications" on page 115).

• Check for copy paper or pieces of copy paper remaining in the machine after a paper jam has been cleared.

Toner cartridge produces fewer

copies than expected before

running out of toner.

• Your originals may contain pictures, solids, or heavy lines. For example, your originals may be forms, newsletters, books, or other

documents that use more toner.

• The scanner lid may be left open while copies are being made.

• Turn the machine off and back on.

158

6. Troubleshooting

Scanning problems

Condition Suggested solutions

The scanner does not work. • Make sure that you place the original to be scanned face down on the scanner glass, or face up in the document feeder (see

"Loading originals" on page 48).

• There may not be enough available memory to hold the document you want to scan. Try the Prescan function to see if that works.

Try lowering the scan resolution rate.

• Check that the machine printer cable is connected properly.

• Make sure that the machine printer cable is not defective. Switch the printer cable with a known good cable. If necessary, replace

the printer cable.

• Check that the scanner is configured correctly. Check scan setting in the application you want to use to make certain that the

scanner job is being sent to the correct port (for example, USB001).

The unit scans very slowly. • Check if the machine is printing received data. 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.

Common Linux problems

Condition Suggested solutions

The 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 the

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 from the printers list. Look at the

description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains Stopped, press the Start button. Normal operation of the machine

should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occur.

• Check if your application has special print options 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 the command line parameter in the

command item.

The machine does not print

whole pages, and output is

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.

“Cannot open port device file”

error message appears when

printing a document.

Avoid changing print job parameters (e.q., via LPR GUI) 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 the Port configuration window.

Operating system problems

165

6. Troubleshooting

Refer to the Linux User’s Guide that came with your computer for further information on Linux error messages.

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.

The machine does not scan. • Ensure a document is loaded into the machine, ensure your machine is connected to the computer.

• If there is an I/O error while scanning.

Glossary

The 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.

802.11

802.11 is a set of standards for wireless local area network (WLAN)

communication, developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE

802).

802.11b/g/n

802.11b/g/n can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band. 802.11b

supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, 802.11n supports bandwidth up to 150

Mbps. 802.11b/g/n devices may occasionally suffer interference from

microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and Bluetooth devices.

Access point

Access 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.

ADF

An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a scanning unit that will automatically

feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan some amount of the

paper at once.

AppleTalk

AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc for

computer networking. It was included in the original Mac (1984) and is now

deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.

BIT Depth

A computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to represent 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.

BMP

A bitmapped graphics format used internally by the Microsoft Windows

graphics subsystem (GDI), and used commonly as a simple graphics file format

on that platform.

Glossary

172

Glossary

BOOTP

Bootstrap 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.

CCD

Charge 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.

Collation

Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collation is

selected, the device prints an entire set before printing additional copies.

Control Panel

A control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or monitoring

instruments are displayed. They are typically found in front of the machine.

Coverage

It 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.

CSV

Comma 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.

DADF

A 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.

Default

The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its box state,

reset, or initialized.

Glossary

173

Glossary

DHCP

A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server networking

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.

DIMM

Dual 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.

DLNA

The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a standard that allows devices on

a home network to share information with each other across the network.

DNS

The 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 Printer

A 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.

DPI

Dots Per Inch (DPI) is a measurement of resolution that is used for scanning and

printing. Generally, higher DPI results in a higher resolution, more visible detail

in the image, and a larger file size.

DRPD

Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection. Distinctive Ring is a telephone company

service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several

different telephone numbers.

Duplex

A 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 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.

Glossary

An emulator duplicates the functions of one system with a different system, 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.

Ethernet

Ethernet 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.

third party device such as a coin operated device or a card reader. Those devices

allow the pay-for-print service on your machine.

FTP

A File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a commonly used protocol for exchanging 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.
