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 types 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.  
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the  
user’s authority to operate this equipment. In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone  
company should notify the customer that service may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may  
temporarily cease service, providing that they:  
a) promptly notify the customer.  
b) give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.  
c) inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication Commission pursuant to procedures set out in  
FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.  
You should also know that:  
Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.  
If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone line as your machine, you may experience transmission and  
reception problems with all the equipment. It is recommended that no other equipment, except for a regular telephone, share the line with  
your machine.  
If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we recommend that you install surge protectors for both the power  
and the telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or telephone and electronic specialty stores.  
When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency numbers, use a non-emergency number to advise the  
emergency service dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will give you further instructions on how to actually test the emergency  
number.  
This machine may not be used on coin service or party lines.  
This machine provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.  
You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by means of a standard modular jack, USOC RJ-11C.

REPLACING THE FITTED PLUG (FOR UK ONLY)  
Important  
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp plug and has a 13 amp fuse. When you change or examine the  
fuse, you must re-fit the correct 13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse cover. If you have lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until  
you have another fuse cover.  
Contact the people from you purchased the machine.  
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be suitable. However, some buildings (mainly old ones) do not have  
normal 13 amp plug sockets. You need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove the moulded plug.  
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.  
You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you plug it into a socket.  
Important warning:  
You must earth this machine.  
The wires in the mains lead have the following color code:  
Green and Yellow: Earth  
Blue: Neutral  
Brown: Live  
If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colors marked in your plug, do the following:  
You must connect the green and yellow wire to the pin marked by the letter “E” or by the safety ‘Earth symbol’ or colored green and yellow or  
green.  
You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “N” or colored black.  
You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “L” or colored red.  
You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.

REGULATORY COMPLIANCE STATEMENTS  
Wireless Guidance  
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. 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.  
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.

This chapter introduces you how to load originals and print media into your machine.  
This chapter includes:  
SELECTING PRINT MEDIA  
You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes,  
labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meet the guidelines  
for use with your machine. Print media 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:  
The type, size and weight of the print media for your machine are  
described later in this section.  
Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate for  
your project.  
Brightness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce  
sharper, more vibrant images.  
Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how  
crisp the printing looks on the paper.  
Some print media 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 print media, ensure that it  
meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.  
Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause  
problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by

Guidelines for special print media  
MEDIA TYPE  
Labels  
GUIDELINES  
MEDIA TYPE  
Envelopes  
GUIDELINES  
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 48.  
- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed  
backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets  
that have spaces between the labels, causing  
serious jams.  
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 or jamming may occur.  
- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should  
lie flat with less than 6 mm 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.  
- 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 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.  
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 wide or  
356 mm long.  
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 48.  
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. Check your machine’s  
specification to view the fusing temperature, see  
page 48. 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.  
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.  
Using photographic paper or coated paper may cause problems,  
requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by Samsung’s  
warranty or service agreements.

3. Load paper into the tray.  
CHANGING THE SIZE OF THE PAPER IN THE  
PAPER TRAY  
To load different sizes of paper, such as Legal-sized paper, you need to  
adjust the paper guides to extend the paper tray.  
To change the tray size to other size, you must adjust the paper length  
guide properly.  
1 Tray extend lever

3 Paper width guide  
4 Paper cover  
4. Slide the paper length guide until it lightly touches the end of the paper  
stack. Squeeze the paper width guide and slide it to the edge of the  
paper stack without causing it to bend.  
1. Pull the tray out of the machine. Open the paper cover and remove  
paper from the tray if necessary.  
For paper smaller than Letter-sized, return the paper guides to their  
original positions and adjust the paper length guide and paper width  
guide.  
2. Pressing and unlatching the guide lock in the top of the tray, pull the tray  
out manually.  
If the paper that you need to print is shorter than length 222 mm (8.74

PRINTING ON SPECIAL PRINT MATERIALS  
ADJUSTING THE OUTPUT SUPPORT  
The machine can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as  
postcards, note cards, and envelopes. Especially, it is useful for single page  
printing on letterhead or colored paper.  
The printed pages stack on the output tray, and the output support will help  
the printed pages align. To let the output support correctly align the pages  
you need to pull it out appropriately depending on the paper size.  
Feeding the print material manually  
Load only one size of print media at a time in the tray.  
To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in  
the tray. This also applies to other types of print media.  
Print media should be loaded face up with the side you want to print,  
and the top edge going into the tray first. Place print materials in the  
center of the tray.  
Always load only the specified print media to avoid paper jams and  
Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading  
them into the tray.  
1 Output support  
If the output support is incorrectly adjusted, printed pages may be  
mis-aligned or fall.  
If you continuously print many pages, the surface of the output tray  
may become hot. Be careful not to touch the surface, and  
especially keep children away from the surface.  
Depending on the media type you are using, keep the following  
loading guidelines:  
Envelopes: Flap side down and with the stamp area on the  
top left side.  
Labels: Print side up and top short edge entering the machine  
first.  
Preprinted paper: Design side up with the top edge toward the  
machine.  
Card stock: Print side up and the short edge entering the  
machine first.  
Previously printed paper: Previously printed side down with  
an uncurled edge toward the machine.  
SETTING THE PAPER SIZE AND TYPE  
After loading paper in the paper tray, you need to set the paper size and  
type using the printer driver. Follow these steps to make your changes  
permanent.  
The following procedure is for Windows XP. For other Windows OS,  
refer to the corresponding Windows User's Guide or online help.

CLEANING YOUR MACHINE  
To maintain print quality, follow the cleaning procedures below each time  
the toner cartridge is replaced or if print quality problems occur.  
Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials  
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong  
substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.  
If your machine or its surrounding is contaminated with toner, we  
recommend you to use cloth or tissue dampened with water to  
clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blown into the air may  
be harmful.  
4. Pull the waste toner container out of the machine using its handle.  
Cleaning the outside  
Clean the cabinet of the machine with a soft lint-free cloth. You can dampen  
the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or  
into the machine.  
Cleaning the inside  
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate  
inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as  
toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears or  
reduces these problems.  
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to  
cool down.  
2. Press the release button, completely open the front cover.

cartridge from the machine.  
To 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 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.  
Expected cartridge life  
The life of the toner cartridge yield depends on the amount of toner that print  
jobs require. The actual number may also be different depending on the  
print density of the pages you print on, and the number of pages may be  
affected by operating environment, printing interval, media type, and media  
size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the cartridge  
more often.  
3. Holding both handles on the toner cartridge, thoroughly rock it from side  
to side to evenly distribute the toner.  
Redistributing toner  
When a toner is low, faded or light areas may appear. It is possible that  
colored images may be printed with incorrect colors due to flawed mixing of  
toner colors when one of the colored toner cartridges is low on toner. You  
can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the toner.  
The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on  
the display.  
The SmartPanel program window appears on the computer telling you  
which color cartridge is low on toner.  
If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry  
cloth and wash it in cold water. Hot water sets toner into  
fabric.  
1. Press the release button, completely open the front cover.  
4. Slide the toner cartridge back into the machine.  
5. Close the front cover. Make sure the cover is securely latched.  
If the front cover is not completely closed, the machine will not

glossary  
DADF  
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.  
A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a mechanism that will  
automatically feed and flip over an original sheet of paper so that the  
machine can scan on both sides of the paper.  
ADF  
Default  
An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a mechanism that will  
automatically feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can  
scan some amount of the paper at once.  
The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its box  
state, reset, or initialized.  
DHCP  
AppleTalk  
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.  
AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc for  
computer networking. It was included in the original Macintosh (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.  
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.  
DNS  
BMP  
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.  
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.  
Dot Matrix Printer  
BOOTP  
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.  
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.  
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.  
CCD  
DRPD  
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.  
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.  
Collation  
Duplex  
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.  
A mechanism that will automatically flip 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 can print double-sided of paper.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
ECM  
Error Correction Mode (ECM) is an optional transmission mode built into  
Class 1 fax machines or fax modems. It automatically detects and  
corrects errors in the fax transmission process that are sometimes  
caused by telephone line noise.  
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 pseudo standard throughout the  
industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.  
Emulation  
Emulation is a technique of one machine obtaining the same results as  
another.  
50 _Glossary  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
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.  
Intranet  
A private network that uses Internet Protocols, network connectivity, and  
possibly the public telecommunication system to securely share part of  
an organization's information or operations with its employees.  
Sometimes the term refers only to the most visible service, the internal  
website.  
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.  
IP address  
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a unique number that devices use in  
order to identify and communicate with each other on a network utilizing  
the Internet Protocol standard.  
IPM  
The Images Per Minute (IPM) is a way of measuring the speed of a  
printer. An IPM rate indicates the number of single-sided sheets a printer  
can complete within one minute.  
EtherTalk  
A suite of protocols developed by Apple Computer for computer  
networking. It was included in the original Macintosh (1984) and is now  
deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.  
IPP  
The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) defines a standard protocol for  
printing as well as managing print jobs, media size, resolution, and so  
forth. IPP can be used locally or over the Internet to hundreds of  
printers, and also supports access control, authentication, and  
encryption, making it a much more capable and secure printing solution  
than older ones.  
FDI  
Foreign Device Interface (FDI) is a card installed inside the machine to  
allow a 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).  
IPX/SPX  
IPX/SPX stands for Internet Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet  
Exchange. It is a networking protocol used by the Novell NetWare  
operating systems. IPX and SPX both provide connection services  
similar to TCP/IP, with the IPX protocol having similarities to IP, and  
SPX having similarities to TCP. IPX/SPX was primarily designed for  
local area networks (LANs), and is a very efficient protocol for this  
purpose (typically its performance exceeds that of TCP/IP on a LAN).  
Fuser Unit  
The part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media. It  
consists of a hot roller and a back-up 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.  
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.  
Gateway  
A connection between computer networks, or between a computer  
network and a telephone line. It is very popular, as it is a computer or a  
network that allows access to another computer or network.  
ITU-T  
Grayscale  
The International Telecommunication Union is an international  
organization established to standardize and regulate international radio  
and telecommunications. Its main tasks include standardization,  
allocation of the radio spectrum, and organizing interconnection  
arrangements between different countries to allow international phone  
calls. A -T out of ITU-T indicates telecommunication.  
A 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.  
Halftone  
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.  
ITU-T No. 1 chart  
Standardized test chart published by ITU-T for document facsimile  
transmissions.  
HDD  
JBIG  
Hard Disk Drive (HDD), commonly referred to as a hard drive or hard  
disk, is a non-volatile storage device which stores digitally-encoded data  
on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces.  
Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group (JBIG) is an image compression

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.

RGB Color: This setting determines how colors are  
rendered. Standard is the most widely used setting  
which the color tone of this mode is the closest to that of  
standard monitor (sRGB Monitor). Vivid mode is  
appropriate for printing presentation data and charts.  
The color tone of Vivid mode produces more Vivid color  
images than that of Standard mode. Device mode is best  
used for printing fine lines, small characters and color  
drawings. The color tone of Device mode may be  
different from that of monitor, the pure toner colors are  
used for printing Cyan, Magenta and Yellow colors.  
Resolution(Quality): You can select the printing  
resolution. The higher the setting, the sharper the clarity  
of printed characters and graphics. The higher setting  
also may increase the time it takes to print a document.  
Color Mode: You can set the color options. Setting to  
Color typically produces the best possible print quality  
for color documents. If you want to print a color  
document in grayscale, select Grayscale  
.
Paper  
Set Paper Type to correspond to the paper loaded in the tray  
from which you want to print. This will let you get the best  
quality printout. If you load a different type of print material,
