Media and tray

This chapter provides information on how to load print media into your
machine.

2

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.

Guidelines for select the print media

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

• 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 user’s guide and
still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of the sheets
characteristics, improper handling, unacceptable temperature and
humidity levels, or other variables over which cannot be controlled.

• 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 or require repairs. Such repairs are not covered by Samsung’s
warranty or service agreements.

• The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media
type used (see "Print media specifications" on page 127).

• Make sure not to use the inkjet photo paper with this machine. It could
cause damage to the machine.

• 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
in print media specifications (see "Print media specifications" on page 127).

• 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.

• Using flammable print media can cause a fire.

• Use designated print media (see "Print media specifications" on page

127).

The use of flammable media or foreign materials left in the printer may lead
to overheating of the unit and, in rare cases may cause a fire.

The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media type used
(see "Print media specifications" on page 127).

Labels

To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser
printers.

• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:

- Adhesives: Should be stable at your machine’s fusing temperature
about 170°C (338°F).

• Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The
adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine.

• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled,
bubbled, or otherwise damaged.

Card stock/ Custom-sized paper

- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them.
Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing
serious jams.

- Curl: Must lie flat with no more than 13 mm of curl in any direction.

- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.
Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause
paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine
components.

• In the software application, set the margins to at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches)
away from the edges of the material.

Depending on the options, percentage of image area and job mode used, the toner cartridge’s lifespan may differ.

When purchasing new toner cartridges or other supplies, these must be purchased in the same country as the machine you are using. Otherwise, new toner
cartridges or other supplies will be incompatible with your machine due to different configurations of toner cartridges and other supplies according to the specific
country conditions.

• The toner cartridge included in the printer/all-in-one product you purchased is not available for sale and is not guaranteed to be compatible with any

other printer.

• Samsung does not recommend using non-genuine Samsung toner cartridge such as refilled or remanufactured toner. Samsung cannot guarantee non-genuine

Samsung toner cartridge's quality. Service or repair required as a result of using non-genuine Samsung toner cartridges will not be covered under the machine’s

warranty.

3. Maintenance

82

Available maintenance parts

You need to replace the maintenance parts at specific intervals to keep the machine in the best condition and avoid print quality and paper feeding problems
resulting from the worn-out parts. Maintenance parts are mostly rollers, belts and pads. However, the replacement period and parts may differ depending on the
model. Replacing maintenance parts can be performed only by an authorized service provider, dealer, or the retailer where you bought the machine. To purchase
maintenance parts, contact the retailer where you bought the machine. The replacement period for the maintenance parts is informed by the "Samsung Printer
Status" program. Or on the UI (User Interface) if your machine supports a display screen. The replacement period varies based on the operating system used,
computing performance, application software, connecting method, paper type, paper size, and job complexity.

3. Maintenance

83

Storing the toner cartridge

Toner cartridges contain components that are sensitive to light, temperature
and humidity. Samsung suggests users follow these recommendations to
ensure optimal performance, highest quality, and longest life from your new
Samsung toner cartridge.

Store this cartridge in the same environment in which the printer will be used.
This should be in controlled temperature and humidity conditions. The toner
cartridge should remain in its original and unopened package until installation
– if original packaging is not available, cover the top opening of the cartridge
with paper and store in a dark cabinet.

Opening the cartridge package prior to use dramatically shortens its useful shelf
and operating life. Do not store on the floor. If the toner cartridge is removed
from the printer, follow the instructions below to store the toner cartridge
properly.

• Store the cartridge inside the protective bag from the original package.

• Store lying flat (not standing on end) with the same side facing up as if it
were installed in the machine.

1

Handling instructions

• Do not expose the cartridge to unnecessary vibrations or shock.

2

Toner cartridge usage

Samsung Electronics does not recommend or approve the use of non-Samsung
brand toner cartridges in your printer including generic, store brand, refilled, or
remanufactured toner cartridges.

Samsung’s printer warranty does not cover damage to the machine caused
by the use of a refilled, remanufactured, or non-Samsung brand toner
cartridges.

• Do not store consumables in any of the following conditions:

- Temperature greater than 40°C (104°F).

- Humidity range less than 20% or greater than 80%.

- An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature.

- Direct sunlight or room light.

- Dusty places.

- A car for a long period of time.

- An environment where corrosive gases are present.

- An environment with salty air.

3

Estimated cartridge life

Estimated cartridge life (the life of the toner cartridge yield) depends on the
amount of toner that print jobs require. The actual print yield may vary
depending on the print density of the pages you print on, operating
environment, percentage of image area, printing interval, media type and/or
media size. For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the consumption of the
toner is higher and you may need to change the cartridge more often.

3. Maintenance

84

Redistributing toner

When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:

• White streaks or light printing occurs and/or density varies from side to side.

• The Status LED blinks orange. The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on the display.

• The computer’s Samsung Printing Status program window appears on the computer telling you which color cartridge is low on toner (see "Using Samsung Printer
Status" on page 271).

If this happens, you can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still
occur even after you have redistributed the toner.

Illustrations on this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on its options or models. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page 21).

• Do not use sharp objects such as a knife or scissors to open the toner cartridge package. They might scratch the drum of the cartridge.

• If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

• When opening a scan unit, hold the document feeder and scan unit together.

• Printing even after the toner empty status can cause serious damage to your machine.

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 and reduces these problems.

• To prevent damage to the imaging unit, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.

• Do not touch the green area of the imaging unit. Use the handle on the imaging unit to avoid touching this area.

• Use a dry lint free cloth when cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to damage the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents such
as benzene or thinner. Printing quality problems can occur and cause damage to the machine.

• Use a dry lint-free cloth to clean the machine.

• Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to cool down. If your machine has a power switch, turn the power switch off before
cleaning the machine.

Tips for avoiding paper jams

By selecting the correct medias, most paper jams can be avoided. To avoid paper jams, refer to the following guidelines:

• Ensure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly (see "Tray overview" on page 41).

• Do not remove paper from the tray while your machine is printing.

• Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading.

• Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.

• Do not mix papers in a tray.

• Use only recommended print media (see "Print media specifications" on page 127).

• Perforated or embossed paper does not separate easily. Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and fan them.

Feed single paper from tray if there are multi-feeds or paper jams.

• Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain long paper is recommended.

• Do not use rough-edged paper.
