•Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to the
corner of the envelope.
1Acceptable
2Unacceptable
•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.
•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.
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
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.
-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.
Media and tray

2. Menu Overview and Basic Setup
•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.
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.

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.
1
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.
2
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.

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.
71
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 in this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on the model and options installed. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page 20).
•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.
•When opening a scan unit, hold the document feeder and scan unit together.

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.

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.
ConditionSuggested 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 "Toner
cartridge" on page 73).
•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 77).
•The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page
77). 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 52).

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 77).
•The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a service representative (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 77).
DropoutsIf 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 52).
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 77).
•The paper path may need cleaning. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 77).
If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.

Vertical linesIf black vertical streaks appear on the page:
•The surface (drum part) of the toner cartridge inside the machine has probably been scratched. Remove the toner cartridge and
install a new one (see "Toner cartridge" on page 73).
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
77). If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
Black or color backgroundIf 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 "Toner cartridge" on page 73).
•Thoroughly redistribute the toner (see "Redistributing toner" on page 71).
Toner smear•Clean the inside of the machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 77).
•Check the paper type and quality.
•Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one (see "Toner cartridge" on page 73).
ConditionSuggested solutions
Printing quality problems

6. Troubleshooting
Vertical repetitive defectsIf 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
"Toner cartridge" on page 73).
•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 scatterBackground 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 52).
•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 52). 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 71).
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 52).
•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.

Common Linux problems
Refer to the Linux User’s Guide that came with your computer for further information on Linux error messages.
ConditionSuggested solutions
There is no xsane nor simple-
scan application on my Linux
machine.
•For some Linux distributions, there might be no default scan application. To use scan features, install one of scan applications using
download center supplied by O/S (ex. Ubuntu Software Center for Ubuntu, Install/Remove Software for openSUSE, Software
for Fedora).
Scanner can not be found via
network.
For some Linux distributions, strong firewall is enabled and it may block our installer from opening necessary port for searching
network devices. In such case, open snmp port - 22161 manually or disable the firewall temporarily while using the device.
Printing with more than two
copies does not work.
The problem occurs on Ubuntu 12.04 due to problem in standard CUPS filter 'pdftops' (actual output point it out exactly) and it has
been fixed already. Updating 'cups-filters' package from version 1.0.17 to version 1.0.18 fixes the problem ('pdftops' is a part of 'cups-
filters' package).
Printing PDF files does not
work.
The problem occurs on openSUSE 12.3 and it has some problem in standard CUPS filter 'pdftops' that may affect certain PDF
documents (it seems this issue relates somehow to fonts used in PDF). Due to this problem, incorrect Postscript is generated and
device fails to print it. We are waiting for the patch.
Unchecking collate option in
Print dialog does not work.
For some distributions, GNOME Print Dialog has an issue handling collate option. As workaround, set the default value of collate option
to 'False' using system's Printing utility(execute "system-config-printer" in Terminal program).
Printing always works with
duplex.
This duplex issue was in Ubuntu 9.10 cups package and was already fixed in security updates for this package, starting from cups
version 1.4.1-5ubuntu2.2.
