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.  
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.  
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, please contact your local Radio  
Approval agency for requirements. Wireless devices are closely regulated  
and use may not be allowed.  
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.  
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.  
Please 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.  
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.  
Warning  
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.  
This transmitter must not be collocated or operation in conjunction with any  
other antenna or transmitter.  
You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you  
plug it into a socket.  
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of  
common restrictions are listed below:  
Important warning: You must earth this machine.  
The wires in the mains lead have the following color code:  
Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with  
equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation

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  
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.  
authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.  
You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.  
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.

Introduction  
• TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol  
• DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol  
• BOOTP: Bootstrap Protocol  
Once you have connected your printer to a network with an RJ-45  
Ethernet cable, you can share the printer with other network users.  
You need to set up the network protocols on the printer to use it as your  
network printer. Protocols can be set up by the following two methods:  
Via network administration programs  
You can configure your printer’s print server settings and manage the  
printer via the following programs that came with your printer:  
SyncThru™ Web Admin Service: Web-based printer management  
solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin  
Service provides you with an efficient way of manageing network  
devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network  
machines from any sith with corporate internet access. Download this  
SyncThru™ Web Service: A web server embedded to your network  
print server, which allows you to configure the network parameters  
necessary for the printer to connect to various network environments.  
SetIP: Utility program allowing you to select a network interface and  
manually configure the IP addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol.  
See Using SetIP program on page 4.2.  
Via the control panel  
You can set up the following basic network parameters through the  
printer’s control panel:  
• Configure TCP/IP  
• Configure EtherTalk

Configuring TCP/IP  
Using SetIP program  
Your printer can be set up with a variety of TCP/IP network information,  
such as an IP address, a subnet mask, a gateway, and DNS addresses.  
There are several ways in which your printer can be assigned a TCP/IP  
address, depending on your network.  
This program is for the network IP setting using the MAC address which  
is the hardware serial number of the network printer card or interface.  
Especially, it is for the network administrator to set several network IPs  
at the same time.  
• Static addressing: A TCP/IP address is assigned manually by the  
system administrator.  
1
2
Insert the driver CD provided along with your machine.  
• Dynamic addressing via BOOTP/DHCP (default): A TCP/IP address  
is assigned automatically by the server.  
Start Windows Explorer and open the X drive. (X represents your  
CD-ROM drive.)  
Note  
Before configuring TCP/IP, you need to set the network  
protocol to TCP/IP.

Selecting print media  
5 Loading 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 printer. Print media that does not meet the  
guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following  
problems:  
This chapter will help you understand types of paper you can use with  
your printer and how to properly load paper in the different paper trays  
for the best print quality.  
This chapter includes:  
• Poor print quality  
• Increased paper jams  
• Premature wear on the printer.  
Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content,  
are important factors that affect the printer’s performance and the output  
quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following:  
• Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate  
for your project.  
• Size: You can use any size media that fits easily within the paper  
adjusters of the paper tray.  
• Weight: Your printer supports print media weights as follows:  
2
- 16 to 24 lb bond (60 to 90 g/m ) for the tray 1 and optional tray 2  
2
- 16 to 43 lb bond (60 to 163 g/m ) for the multi-purpose tray  
2
- 20 to 24 lb (75 to 90 g/m ) for the duplex printing  
• 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.  
Notes  
• 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.  
Caution  
Using print media that does not meet these specifications may  
cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not  
covered by Samsung’s warranty or service agreements.

Guidelines for special print media  
Guidelines for selecting and storing print media  
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print materials,  
keep these guidelines in mind:  
Media type  
Guidelines  
• Successful printing on envelopes depends upon  
the quality of the envelopes. When selecting  
envelopes, consider the following factors:  
• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on  
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause  
paper jams and poor print quality.  
- Weight: The weight of the envelope paper  
should not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb) or jamming  
may occur.  
• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper  
specifically recommended for use in laser printers.  
- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes  
should lie flat with less than 6 mm  
• Avoid using the following media types:  
- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too  
smooth or too rough  
(0.25 inches) curl, and should not contain air.  
- Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled,  
nicked, or otherwise damaged.  
- Erasable bond paper  
- Multi-paged paper  
- Temperature: You should use envelopes that  
are compatible with the heat and pressure of  
the printer during operation.  
• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp  
and well creased folds.  
- Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper  
- Carbonless paper and Tracing paper.  
• Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical  
smells, and damage to your printer.  
• Do not use stamped envelopes.  
• Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it.  
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.  
• 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.  
o
o
• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15 C and 30 C  
Envelopes  
o
o
(59 F to 86 F). The relative humidity should be between 10% and  
70%.  
• Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic  
container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating  
your paper.  
Acceptable  
• Load special media types one sheet at a time through the multi-  
purpose tray to avoid paper jams.  
To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from  
sticking together, remove them as they print out.  
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 printer’s  
fusing temperature of 200° C (392° 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.

Media type  
Guidelines  
Media type  
Guidelines  
To avoid damaging the printer, use only  
transparencies designed for use in laser printers.  
• Transparencies used in the printer must be able  
to withstand 200° C (392° F), the printer’s fusing  
temperature.  
• 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 of 205° C (400° F)  
for 0.1 second.  
• Place them on a flat surface after removing them  
from the printer.  
• 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.  
Preprinted  
paper  
• 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.  
Transparencies  
Loading paper  
To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels  
designed for use in laser printers.  
• When selecting labels, consider the following  
factors:  
Load the print media you use for the majority of your print jobs in the tray  
1. The tray 1 can hold a maximum of 250 sheets of 21 lb plain paper.  
- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be  
stable at 200° C (392° F), the printer’s fusing  
temperature.  
You can purchase an optional tray (tray 2) and attach it below the  
standard tray to load an additional 250 sheets of paper. For order  
information for an optional tray, see page 7.1.  
- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed  
backing between them. Labels can peel off  
sheets that have spaces between the labels,  
causing serious jams.  
The paper level indicator on the front of the tray 1 and the optional tray  
2 shows the amount of paper currently left in the tray. When the tray is  
empty, the indicator bar appears at the bottom.  
- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with  
no more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any  
direction.  
Labels  
- 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 printer components.  
• Do not run a sheet of labels through the printer  
more than once. The adhesive backing is  
designed for only a single pass through the  
printer.  
Full  
Empty  
• Do not use labels that are separating from the  
backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or  
otherwise damaged.  
• 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.

If you are using paper, flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to  
separate the pages before loading.  
• Transparencies: Print side up and the top with the adhesive strip  
entering the printer first.  
• Labels: Print side up and top short edge entering the printer first.  
• Preprinted paper: Design side up with the top edge toward the  
printer.  
• Card stock: Print side up and the short edge entering the printer  
first.  
For transparencies, hold them by the edges and avoid touching the  
print side. Oils from your fingers can cause print quality problems.  
• Previously printed paper: Previously printed side down with an  
uncurled edge toward the printer.  
Note  
Make sure that you have not loaded too much print material.  
The print material buckles if you load a stack that is too deep or  
if you push it in too far.  
Caution  
When you print on special material like envelopes, labels,  
transparencies, or cards, the output location should be the  
rear cover. Open the rear cover to use it. See page 5.8.

Tips on using the multi-purpose tray  
• Load only one size of print media at a time in the multi-purpose tray.  
To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in  
the multi-purpose tray. This also applies to other types of print media.  
• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the  
multi-purpose tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.  
• Always load only the print media specified in page 5.1 to avoid paper  
jams and print quality problems.

When you print a document, set the paper source to Manual Feed  
and select the appropriate paper size and type in the software  
application. See the Software Section.  
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading  
them into the multi-purpose tray.  
Print a document.  
• When you print on 76 mm x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches) sized media on  
the multi-purpose tray, open the rear cover for straight paper path to  
avoid paper jams.  
The display shows a message prompting you to load paper and  
press OK.  
• Make sure to open the rear cover when you print on transparencies. If  
not, they may tear while exiting the printer.  
5
Press Stop.  
The printer picks up the print material and prints. After one page is  
printed, the message appears again.  
Using manual feed mode  
Note  
You can manually load a sheet of print material in the multi-purpose tray  
if you select Manual Feed in the Source option from the Paper tab when  
you change print settings to print a document. See the Software  
Section. Manually loading paper can be helpful when you want to check  
the print quality after each page is printed.  
If you do not press the button, after a pause the printer will  
automatically pick the print material.  
6
Insert the next sheet into the multi-purpose tray and press Stop.  
Repeat this step for every page to be printed.  
This loading procedure is almost the same as the procedure for loading  
in the multi-purpose tray, except you load paper sheet-by-sheet in the  
tray, send print data to print the first page, and press OK on the control  
panel to print each following page.

Printing to the rear cover (Face up)  
Selecting an output location  
Using the rear cover, paper comes out of the printer face up.  
The printer has two output locations; the rear cover (face up) and the  
output tray (face down).  
Printing from the multi-purpose tray to the rear cover provides a straight  
paper path. Using the rear cover might improve the output quality with  
special print media.  
To use the rear cover, open it by pulling down.

The printer sends output to the output tray by default. To use the output  
tray, make sure that the rear cover is closed.  
Notes  
• If paper coming out of the output tray has problems, such as  
excessive curl, try printing to the rear cover.  
Caution  
To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear cover while  
the printer is printing.  
The fuser area inside the rear cover of your printer becomes  
very hot when in use. Take care when you access this area.  
Printing to the output tray (Face down)  
The output tray collects paper face down, in the order in which the sheets  
were printed. The tray should be used for most print jobs.

Cleaning the inside of the printer  
8Maintenance  
There are two methods to clean the inside of the printer:  
• Clean the inside manually.  
This chapter provides information for maintaining your printer and the  
toner cartridge, as well as suggestions for high-quality and economical  
printing.  
• Print a cleaning sheet, which can be done from the control panel.  
Cleaning the inside of the printer manually  
This chapter includes:  
1
Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the printer  
to cool down.  
2
Open the front cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a  
clean flat surface.  
Printing information page  
From the printer’s control panel, you can print pages that give detailed  
information about the printer. They can be help you maintain your printer.  
1
Press Menu until Information appears on the bottom line of the  
display and press OK.  
2
Press the scroll buttons until the information page you want  
appears and press OK.  
A page prints out.  
Cautions  
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.  
Cleaning the printer  
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can  
accumulate inside the printer. This buildup can cause print quality  
problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Your printer has a cleaning  
mode that can correct and prevent these types of problems.  
• Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner  
cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching  
this area.  
3
With a dry lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from  
the toner cartridge area and the toner cartridge cavity.  
Cleaning the outside of the printer  
Clean the cabinet of the printer 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 printer.  
Caution  
If your machine or its surrounding is contaminated with toner,  
we recommend you to use a cloth or tissue dampened with  
water to clean it. Toner blown into the air by a vacuum cleaner  
maybe harmful.  
Caution  
Cleaning the cabinet of the printer with cleaning materials  
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvents, or other strong  
substances can discolor or crack the cabinet.  
Caution  
While cleaning the inside of the printer, be careful not to touch  
the transfer roller, located underneath the toner cartridge. Oil  
from your fingers can cause print scan quality problems.

Locate the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the top of the cartridge  
compartment, and gently swab the glass with a cotton swab  
checking to see if dirt turns the cotton black.  
To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for  
more than a few minute.  
Expected cartridge life  
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print  
jobs require. When printing text at 5% coverage, the toner cartridge  
lasts an average of either 10,000 or 4,000 pages. (The original toner  
cartridge supplied with the printer lasts an average of 4,000 pages;  
however, it varies depending on the product configuration.) 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.  
Your machine sets the toner remains in 3 levels, Toner Low, Replace  
Toner, and Toner Exhausted. The machine is designed to detect the  
toner remains and stop printing when the level is Toner Exhausted, for  
preventing your machine from severe contamination or malfunction.  
Refer to page 7.1 for supplies information.

Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the front cover.  
Plug in the power cord and turn the printer on.  
Printing a cleaning sheet  
Saving Toner  
If you are experiencing blurred, faded, or smeared printouts, you can  
clear the problem by printing a cleaning sheet, provided by your printer.  
You can print:  
To save toner, press Toner Save on the control panel. The button  
backlight turns on.  
• OPC Cleaning sheet: cleans the OPC drum of the toner cartridge.  
Using this feature extends the life of the toner cartridge and reduce  
your cost per page, but it also reduces print quality.  
• Fuser Cleaning sheet: cleans the fuser unit inside the printer.  
This process will produce a page with toner debris, which should be  
discarded.  
Checking the remaining toner  
You can check the level of toner left in the cartridge.

Clearing paper jams  
9Troubleshooting  
Note  
This chapter provides helpful information for what to do if you encounter  
an error while using your printer.  
When removing paper that is jammed in the printer, if possible  
always pull the paper in the direction that it normally moves so  
as not to damage internal components. Always pull firmly and  
evenly; do not jerk the paper. If the paper tears, ensure that all  
fragments of paper are removed; otherwise a jam will occur  
again.  
This chapter includes:  
When a paper jam occurs, the Status LED lights red. Open and close the  
front cover. The jammed paper automatically exit the printer.  
If the paper does not exit, check the display on the control panel. The

Condition  
Suggested solutions  
If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on  
the page:  
• The toner supply is low. You may be able to  
temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. See  
page 8.3. If this does not improve print quality,  
install a new toner cartridge.  
• The paper may not meet paper specifications  
(for example, the paper is too moist or too  
rough). See page 5.3.  
• If the entire page is light, the print resolution  
setting is too light or toner save mode is on.  
Adjust the print resolution and toner save mode  
in the printer properties. See the Software

TrueType Options: This option determines what the driver  
tells the printer about how to image the text in your document.  
Select the appropriate setting according to the status of your  
document.  
Click the Extras tab to access the following feature:  
-
Download as Outline: When this option is selected, the  
driver will download any TrueType fonts that are used in your  
document not already stored (resident) on your printer. If,  
after printing a document, you find that the fonts did not print  
correctly, choose Download as bit image and resubmit your  
print job. The Download as bit image setting is often useful  
when printing Adobe. This feature is available only  
when you use the PCL printer driver.  
-
-
Download as Bitmap: When this option is selected, the  
driver will download the font data as bitmap images.  
Documents with complicated fonts, such as Korean or  
Chinese, or various other fonts, will print faster in this setting.  
Print as Graphics: When this option is selected, the driver  
will download any fonts as graphics. When printing documents  
with high graphic content and relatively few TrueType fonts,  
printing performance (speed) may be enhanced in this  
setting.  
Print All Text To Black: When the Print All Text To  
Black option is checked, all text in your document prints solid  
black, regardless of the color it appears on the screen.  
Print All Text To Darken: When the Print All Text To  
Darken option is checked, all text in your document is allowed  
to print darker than on a normal document. Some printers do  
not support this feature.  
Watermark  
You can create a background text image to be printed on each  
page of your document. For details, see “Using Watermarks” on  
Overlay  
Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and  
letterhead paper. For details, see “Using Overlays” on page 22.  
Output Options  
Print Subset: You can set the sequence in which the pages  
print. Select the print order from the drop-down list.

-
Normal (1,2,3): Your printer prints all pages from the first  
page to the last page.  
Reverse All Pages (3,2,1): Your printer prints all pages  
from the last page to the first page.  
Print Odd Pages: Your printer prints only the odd numbered  
pages of the document.  
Print Even Pages: Your printer prints only the even  
numbered pages of the document.  
Use Printer Fonts: When Use Printer Fonts is checked, the  
printer uses the fonts that are stored in its memory (resident  
fonts) to print your document, rather than downloading the  
fonts used in your document. Because downloading fonts takes  
time, selecting this option can speed up your printing time.  
When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match the fonts  
used in your document to those stored in its memory. If,  
however, you use fonts in your document that are very different  
from those resident in the printer, your printed output will  
appear very different from what it looks like on the screen.  
This feature is available only when you use the PCL  
printer driver.

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
