different requirements, however, Samsung makes several accessories

available to enhance your machine’s capabilities.

This chapter includes:

Precautions to take when installing accessories

Installing a memory module

Precautions to take when installing accessories

• Disconnect the power cord

control board cover

Never remove the control board cover while the power is turned on.

To avoid the possibility of an electrical shock, always disconnect the

power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external

accessories.

Note

If you want to remove an existing memory module, push the

two latches at the ends of the module outward.

Take out a new memory module from the plastic bag.

• Discharge static electricity

The control board and internal accessories (network interface card or

memory module) are sensitive to static electricity. Before installing or

removing any internal accessories, discharge static electricity from your

body by touching something metal, such as the metal back plate on any

device plugged into a grounded power source. If you walk around before

finishing the installation, repeat this procedure to discharge any static

electricity again.

Holding the memory module by the edges, align the memory

module on the slot at about a 30-degree tilt. Make sure that the

notches of the module and the grooves on the slot fit each other.

Installing a memory module

Your machine has a dual in-line memory module (DIMM). Use this

memory module slot to install additional memory.

Note

The notches and grooves illustrated above may not match

those on an actual memory module and its slot.

The machine has two memory slots with a factory pre-installed memory

module in one slot. When you are expanding the memory capacity, you

can add a memory module to the vacant memory slot. It is strongly

recommended that you expand a memory module in vacant memory slot

only without removing the pre-installed memory module. If your machine

has 128 MB memory capacity and you want to add 512 MB, the memory

capacity expands up to 640 MB.

Press the memory module into the slot with care until you hear a

'click'.

Order information is provided for optional memory module. (See

"Accessories" on page 8.1.)

Turn the machine off and unplug all cables from the machine.

Caution

Do not press the memory module strongly or the module

may be damaged. If the module does not seem to fit into

the slot properly, carefully try the previous procedure again.

Duty Cycle

11 Glossary

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, which is not small amount.

BOOTP

It stands for 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.

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. It has become the most widespread LAN

technology in use presently.

Control Panel

A control panel is a flat area where control or monitoring instruments are

displayed. They are typically found in top or front of the machine.

Coverage

Fuser Unit

This is the printing term used for toner usage measurement on printing

and generally used as 5% coverage. 5% coverage means that an A4

sized 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 over 5%

and at the same time, toner usage will be as much as the coverage.

This is the part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media.

It consists of two hot rollers. 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.

Default

Gateway

The first set values.

This is a connection between computer networks, or between a computer

network and a telephone line. And it is very popular, as it is a computer

or a network that allows access to another computer or network.

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.

Grayscale

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.

DIMM

Halftone

Dual Inline Memory Module, a small circuit board that holds memory.

DIMM stores all the data within the machine like printing data, received

fax data, or scanned data.

This is 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.

DNS

Intranet

The Domain Name Server (DNS) is a system that stores information

associated with domain names in a distributed database on networks.

This is 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.

DPI

This is the measurement of resolution which is used for printing or

scanning. Generally, more dots per inch result in a higher resolution,

more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size.

IP address

Duplex

An Internet Protocol address (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 (IP).

This is a mechanism which automatically flips 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.

IPM

The Images Per Minute.

ISO

Subnet Mask

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.

A bitmask used to tell how many bits in an octet(s) identify the

subnetwork, and how many bits provide room for host addresses.

TCP/IP

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP).

It is the set of communications protocols that implement the protocol

stack on which the Internet and most commercial networks run.

LED

A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that indicates the

status of a machine.

toner cartridge

Print Media

It is a kind of bottle within a machine like a printer which contains toner.

Toner is a powder used in laser printers and photocopiers which forms the

text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be melted by the heat of

the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.

Media such as papers, envelopes, labels, and transparencies which can

be used on a printer, a scanner, a fax or, a copier.

OPC Drum

URL

A mechanism that makes a virtual image for print using a laser beam

emitted from a laser printer, and it is usually green or gray-colored and

cylinder-shaped. An exposing unit of a drum is slowly worn away by its

usage of the printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it

becomes scratched from grit in paper.

Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents and

resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates what

protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the domain

name where the resource is located.

PDF

USB

Portable Document Format (PDF) is a proprietary file format developed

by Adobe Systems for representing two-dimensional documents in a

device-independent and resolution-independent format.

Universal serial bus (USB) is a standard that was developed by the USB

Implementers Forum, Inc., to connect computers and peripherals. Unlike

the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently connect a single

computer USB port to multiple peripherals.

PostScript

PostScript (PS) is a page description language and programming

language used primarily in the electronic and desktop publishing areas,

and that is run in an interpreter to generate an image.

PPM

Pages Per Minute. PPM shows the printer's speed, how many pages a

printer can actually print per minute.

PRN file

An interface for a device driver, this allows software to interact with the

device driver using standard input/output system calls, which simplifies

many tasks.

Protocol

This is a convention or standard that controls or enables the connection,

communication, and data transfer between two computing endpoints.

See PostScript.

Resolution

The sharpness of an image, measured in dots per inch (dpi). The higher

the dpi, the greater the resolution.

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.

Watermark

You can create a background text image to be printed on each

page of your document. For details, see “Using Watermarks” on

page 22.

•

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.

Grayscale Enhancement: Press the Smart Color tab. It

allows users to preserve the details of nature photos, and

improve contrast and readability among gray scaled colors,

when printing color documents in grayscale.

Overlay

Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and

letterhead paper. For details, see “Using Overlays” on page 23.

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.

Fine Edge: Press the Smart Color tab. It allows users to

emphasize edges of texts and fine lines for improving

readability and align each color channel registration in color

printing mode.

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.
