Laser Safety Statement
The printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS 21 CFR,
chapter 1 Subchapter J for Class I(1) laser products, and elsewhere is certified as a
Class I laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC 825.
Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The laser system and printer
are designed so there is never any human access to laser radiation above a Class I level
during normal operation, user maintenance or prescribed service condition.
WARNING
Never operate or service the printer with the protective cover removed from Laser/
Scanner assembly. The reflected beam, although invisible, can damage your eyes.
When using this product, these basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons:
11 Never push objects of any kind into the machine through case or cabinet
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of fire or
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.
12 Your machine may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the document for
the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type machine). In this case,
replace the cover after placing document on the scan glass, by holding and
moving it down slowly until it seats on its location.
13 To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the machine. Take it to a
qualified service technician when repair work is required. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly
could cause electric shock when the unit is subsequently used.
14 Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, PC and AC wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
• When any part of the power cord, plug or connecting cable is damaged or frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled into the machine.
• If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the machine does not operate properly after instructions have been followed.
• If the machine has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.
• If the machine exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.
15 Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may require extensive
work by a qualified service technician to restore the machine to normal operation.
16 Avoid using this machine during a lightning storm. There may be a remote risk of
electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC power and telephone cord
for the duration of the lightning storm.
Ozone Safety
During normal operation, this machine produces ozone. The ozone
produced does not present a hazard to the operator. However, it is
advisable that the machine be operated in a well ventilated area.
If you need additional information about ozone, please request your
nearest Samsung dealer.

Radio Frequency Emissions
FCC Information to the User
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful interference, and
• This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
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 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.
ii
WARNING:
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

media
This chapter introduces you to how to load originals and print media into
your machine.
This chapter includes:
•Loading originals
•Selecting print media
•Loading paper
•Setting the paper size and type
•Selecting an output location
Loading originals
You can use the scanner glass or ADF to load an original for copying,
scanning, and sending a fax.
On the scanner glass
Make sure that no originals are in the ADF. If an original is detected in the
ADF, the machine gives it priority over the original on the scanner glass.
To get the best scan quality, especially for colored or gray-scaled images,
use the scanner glass.
1Lift and open the scanner lid.
2Place the original face down on the scanner glass and align it with
the registration guide at the top left corner of the glass.
3Close the scanner lid.
Notes
• Leaving the scanner lid open while copying may affect copy
quality and toner consumption.
• Dust on the scanner glass may cause black spots on the
printout. Always keep it clean.
• If you are copying a page from a book or magazine, lift the
scanner lid until its hinges are caught by the stopper and then
close the lid. If the book or magazine is thicker than 30 mm,
start copying with the lid open.
In the ADF
Using the ADF, you can load up to 50 sheets of paper (75 g/m2) for one
job.
When you use the ADF:
• Do not load paper smaller than 142 x 148 mm or larger than
216 x 356 mm.
• Do not attempt to load the following types of paper:
- carbon-paper or carbon-backed paper
- coated paper
- onion skin or thin paper
- wrinkled or creased paper
- curled or rolled paper
- torn paper
• Remove all staples and paper clips before loading.
• Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely
dry before loading.
• Do not load originals that include different sizes or weights of paper.
• Do not load booklets, pamphlets, transparencies, or documents
having other unusual characteristics.
5.1 <
Loading originals and print media>
To load an original into the ADF:
1Load the original face up into the ADF. Make sure that the bottom of
the original stack matches the paper size marked on the document
input tray.
2Adjust the document width guides to the paper size.
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

• 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:
• 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 machine supports print media weights as follows:
- 60 to 90 g/m
- 60 to 163 g/m2 bond for the multi-purpose tray
- 75 to 90 g/m
• 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.

Note
Dust on the ADF glass may cause black lines on the printout.
Always keep it clean.
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 Muratec has no control.
• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it
meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.

Guidelines for selecting and storing print media
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print materials,
keep these guidelines in mind:
• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on
page 5.3.
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause
paper jams and poor print quality.
• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper
specifically recommended for use in laser printers.
• Avoid using the following media types:
- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too
smooth or too rough
- Erasable bond paper
- Multi-paged paper
- 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 machine.
• 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.
• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15 °C and 30 °C.
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.
• Load special media types one sheet at a time through the multipurpose tray to avoid paper jams.
• To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from
sticking together, remove them as they print out.
Media typeGuidelines
Envelopes• 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/m
2
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.
• 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.
Acceptable
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 of 180 °C 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 from the edges of the
envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the
envelope’s seams meet.
5.4 <
Loading originals and print media>
Media typeGuidelines
Media typeGuidelines
Transparencies• To avoid damaging the machine, use only
transparencies designed for use in laser printers.
• Transparencies used in the machine must be
able to withstand 180 °C, the machine’s fusing
temperature.
• Place them on a flat surface after removing them
from the machine.
• 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.
Labels• To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels
designed for use in laser printers.
• When selecting labels, consider the following
factors:
- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be
stable at 180 °C, the machine’s fusing
temperature.
- 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: 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 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.
Preprinted
paper
• Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant
ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release
hazardous emissions when subjected to the
machine’s fusing temperature of 180 °C for
0,1 second.
• 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.
Loading paper
In the tray 1
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 75 g/m
paper.
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 12.1.

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 5.2 to avoid paper
jams and print quality problems.
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading
them into the multi-purpose tray.
• Make sure to open the rear cover when you print on transparencies. If
not, they may tear while exiting the machine.

Receiving faxes using DRPD mode
Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables an user
to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone
numbers. The particular number someone uses to call you is identified by
different ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long
and short ringing sounds. This feature is often used by answering
services who answer telephones for many different clients and need to
know which number someone is calling in on to properly answer the
phone.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature, your fax
machine can learn the ring pattern you designate to be answered by the
fax machine. Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be
recognized and answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will
be forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine plugged
into the EXT socket. You can easily suspend or change DRPD at any
time.
Before using the DRPD option, Distinctive Ring service must be installed
on your telephone line by the telephone company. To set up DRPD, you
will need another telephone line at your location, or someone available to
dial your fax number from outside.

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.
• Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner
cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching
this area.
Maintenance>
3With a dry lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from
the toner cartridge area and the toner cartridge cavity.
Caution
While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to touch
the transfer roller, located underneath the toner cartridge. Oil
from your fingers can cause print scan quality problems.
4Locate the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the top of the cartridge
compartment, and gently swab the glass to see if dirt turns the white
cotton black.
Cleaning the scan unit
Keeping the scan unit clean helps ensure the best possible copies. We
suggest that you clean the scan unit at the start of each day and during
the day, as needed.
1Slightly dampen a soft lint-free cloth or paper towel with water.
2Open the scanner lid.
3Wipe the surface of the scanner glass and ADF glass until it is clean
and dry.

Maintaining the toner cartridge
Toner cartridge storage
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.
13.3 <
Maintenance>
Expected cartridge life
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print
jobs require. When printing text at ISO 19752 5% coverage, a new toner
cartridge lasts an average of 8,000 pages. (The original toner cartridge
supplied with the MFX-3050 lasts an average of 4,000 impressions.
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.
Redistributing toner
3Thoroughly roll the cartridge 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner
evenly inside the cartridge.
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:
• White streaks or light printing occurs.
• Toner Low appears on the display.
•The Status LED blinks red.
If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish 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.
1Open the front cover.
2Pull the toner cartridge out.
Note
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.
Caution
Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge.
Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
4Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge
into the opening in the machine.
Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within
the machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it
locks into place completely.
13.4 <
Maintenance>
5Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.
3Remove the new toner cartridge from its bag.
4Remove the packing tape and roll the cartridge 5 or 6 items to
distribute the toner.
Thoroughly roll the cartridge to assure maximum copies per
cartridge. Save the box and the plastic bag for shipping.
Replacing the toner cartridge
When the toner cartridge is completely empty:
• Toner Empty appears on the display.
•The Status LED blinks red.
• The machine stops printing. Incoming faxes are
stored in memory.
At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced.
Note
You can set the machine to disregard the Toner Empty
message and to continue printing. See page 13.6.
1Open the front cover.
2Pull the toner cartridge out.
Note
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.
Caution
Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge.
Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
5Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge
into the opening in the machine.
Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within
the machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it
locks into place completely.
6Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.

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 13.4. If this does not improve the 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 5.8.
• 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 and page 2.4, respectively.
• A combination of faded or smeared defects
may indicate that the toner cartridge needs
cleaning. See page 13.5.
• The surface of the LSU part inside the
machine may be dirty. Clean the LSU. See
page 13.2.
• The paper may not meet specifications; for
example, the paper is too moist or too rough.
See page 5.8.
• The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the

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. See page 5.8.
• The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing
processes can cause some areas to reject
toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper.

If black vertical streaks appear on the page:
• The drum inside the toner cartridge has
probably been scratched. Remove the toner
cartridge and install a new one. See
page 13.5.
If white vertical streaks appear on the page:
• The surface of the LSU part inside the
machine may be dirty. Clean the LSU. See
page 13.2.
If the amount of background shading becomes
unacceptable:
• Change to a lighter weight paper. See
page 5.8.
• Check the machine’s environment: very dry
(low humidity) or high humidity (higher than
80% RH) conditions can increase the amount
of background shading.
• Remove the old toner cartridge and install a
new one. See page 13.5.
• Clean the inside of the machine. See
page 13.2.
• Check the paper type and quality. See
page 5.8.
• Remove the toner cartridge and install a new
one. See page 13.5.
If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of
the page at even intervals:
• The toner cartridge may be damaged. If a
repetitive mark occurs on the page, print a
cleaning sheet several times to clean the
cartridge; see page 13.5. After the printout, if
you still have the same problems, remove the
toner cartridge and install a new one. See
page 13.5.
• 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.

Curl or wave
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.
• If background scatter covers the entire surface
area of a printed page, adjust the print
resolution through your software application or
the printer properties.
• If characters are improperly formed and
producing hollow images, the paper stock may
be too slick. Try a different paper. See page
5.8.
• If characters are improperly formed and
producing a wavy effect, the scanner unit may
need service. For service, contact a service
representative.
• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.
• Check the paper type and quality. See
page 5.8.
• Ensure that the paper or other material is
loaded correctly and the guides are not too
tight or too loose against the paper stack.
• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.
• Check the paper type and quality. Both high
temperature and humidity can cause paper
curl. See page 5.8.
• Turn over the stack of paper in the tray. Also
try rotating the paper 180° in the tray.

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

These messages may appear during printing.
Just keep waiting until the machine finishes
printing. If the message appears in standby
mode or after printing has been completed,
check the connection and/or whether an error
has occurred.
Note
Refer to Microsoft Windows 98/Me/NT 4.0/2000/XP User’s Guide
that came with your PC for further information on Windows error
messages.
The following situations are PS language specific and may occur when
several printer languages are being used.
Note
To receive a printed or screen-displayed message when PostScript
errors occur, open the Print Options window and click the desired
selection next to the PostScript errors section.
ProblemPossible CauseSolution

Error” message
appears.
A PostScript
error page
prints.
The PostScript
driver may not be
installed correctly.
The print job was
too complex.
The print job may
not be PostScript.
• Install the PostScript
driver, referring to the
Software Section
• Print a configuration page
and verify that the PS
version is available for
printing.
• If the problem persists,
contact a service
representative.
You might need to reduce
the complexity of the page or
install more memory.
Make sure that the print job
is a PostScript job. Check to
see whether the software
application expected a setup
or PostScript header file to
be sent to the machine.

Common Linux problems
ProblemPossible Cause and Solution
ProblemPossible Cause and Solution
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 Printers configuration window to
look at the list of available printers. Make
sure that your machine is displayed on
the list. If not, please, invoke Add new
printer wizard to set up your device.
• Check if the printer is started. Open
Printers configuration and select your
machine on the printers list. Look at the
description in the Selected printer pane.
If its status contains “(stopped)” string,
please, press the Start button. After that
normal operation of the printer should be
restored. The “stopped” status might be
activated when some problems in
printing occurred. For instance, this
could be an attempt to print document
when port is claimed by a scanning
application.
• Check if the port is not busy. Since
functional components of MFP (printer
and scanner) share the same I/O
interface (port), the situation of
simultaneous access of different
“consumer” application 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
“consumer” will encounter “device busy”
response. You should open ports
configuration and select the port
assigned to your printer. In the Selected
port pane you can see if the port is
occupied by some other application. If
this is the case, you should wait for
completion of the current job or should
press Release port button, if you are
sure that the present owner is not
functioning properly.
• Check if your application has special
print option 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 command line
parameter in the command item.
The machine does not
appear on the
scanners list
• Check if your machine is attached to
your computer. Make sure that it is
connected properly via the USB port and
is turned on.
• Check if the scanner driver for your
machine is installed in your system.
Open Unified 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. Check if
the port is not busy. Since functional
components of MFP (printer and
scanner) share the same I/O interface
(port), the situation of simultaneous
access of different “consumer”
application 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 “consumer”
will encounter “device busy” response.
This can usually happen while starting
scan procedure, and appropriate
message box appears.
• To identify the source of the problem,
you should open 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
some other application. If this is the
case, you should wait for completion of
the current job or should press Release
port button, if you are sure that the
present port's owner is not functioning
properly.

I encounter error
“Cannot open port
device file” when
printing a document.
Please avoid changing print job
parameters (via LPR GUI, for example)
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
port while printing, the abrupt termination
of the driver keeps the port locked and
therefore unavailable for subsequent print
jobs. If this situation occurred, please, try
to release the port.
Common Macintosh problems
ProblemSuggested solutions
The printer does not print
a document from Acrobat
Reader.
The document has
printed, but the print job
has not disappeared from
the spooler in
Mac OS 10.3.2.
You should change the Print Method
option to Print as Image when you print
from Acrobat Reader.
Update your Mac OS to OS 10.3.3. or
higher.
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 detail information,
refer to the Help for Linux distribution CD
or Gimp Front-end application.
If you wish to use other kind of scan
application, refer to the Help for
