Frequently Asked Questions About USB

Q

What is USB?

Q

Universal Serial Bus (USB) makes it easy to connect devices to

A

your computer without having to open your PC. USB uses a
standard port and plug combination for connecting devices like
printers, modems, scanners, and digital cameras. It also offers
the benefit of being able to easily add, remove, and move
devices.

Because USB is a relatively new technology, we recommended
using a parallel printing connection. However, USB is an option
to customers who want to print from Windows 98/Me/2000/XP,
Macintosh using a USB cable. If your computer’s USB port is
enabled and properly setup, you can connect your printer to it
or to a chain of USB devices via a USB cable.

How can I determine if my computer’s USB port is enabled?

Q

Q

1

A

A

In Windows 98/Me, select Start ➝ Settings ➝ Control Panel.

2

Double-click the System icon.

3

Click the Device Manager tab.

4

Click the plus (+) icon before the Universal Serial Bus
Controller item.

If you see a USB host controller and a USB root hub listed, USB is
properly enabled. If you have multiple hubs on the USB chain, try
connecting your printer to a different hub or to another USB
device. Also, make sure the cable connections are firm. (USB hubs
are hardware devices into which you can plug multiple USB
cables.)

If you do not see these devices listed, refer to your computer’s
documentation or contact the manufacturer for more information
on enabling and setting up USB. Remember, you can always use a
parallel cable to connect your printer’s parallel port to your
computer. (If you decide to switch to a parallel cable connection,
you may need to remove and reinstall the printer software. )

USB uses a different naming convention for USB devices. After
the printer has been installed, you see SSUSB:(your printer
name) instead of LPT.

When operated on a USB chain, your printer may become
slower if other USB devices are being used while you’re
printing. For optimal print performance, avoid using other
devices in the USB chain while printing.

Print Media

Print Media

This chapter will help you understand what kind of paper
you can use with the ML-1450 series printer and how to
properly load paper in the different paper trays for the
best print quality.

Topics included in this chapter are:

◆ Choosing Paper and Other Media

◆ Selecting the Output Tray

◆ Loading Paper

◆ Printing on Envelopes

◆ Printing on Labels

◆ Printing on Transparencies

◆ Printing on Preprinted Paper

◆ Printing on Card Stock or Custom-sized Media

Choosing Paper and Other Media

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper,
envelopes, labels, transparencies, card stocks and so on. See
“Paper Specifications” on page A.2. To get the best possible
print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.

When you choose print media, consider the following:

• Desired outcome: The paper you choose should be
appropriate for the project.

• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the
paper adjusters of the paper tray.

• Weight : Your printer supports paper weight as follows:

• 16~28 lbs bond for Tray 1 or optional Tray 2

• 16~43 lbs bond for Multi-Purpose Tray

• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and
produce sharper, more vibrant images.

• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper affects
how crisp the printing looks on the paper.

• Opacity: Opacity refers to the degree to which printing on
one side of the paper shows through the other side. Use
paper high in opacity (or thicker paper) for two-sided
(duplex) printing.

Always test a sample of paper before purchasing large
quantities.

CAUTION: Using media that does not confirm to the specification

listed in the paper specification can cause problems that may
require service. This service is not covered by the warranty or
service agreements.

Paper Guidelines

When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special
media, keep these guidelines in mind:

• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper
can cause paper jams and poor print quality.

• Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multi-part paper.

• Use only high-quality, copier grade paper.

• Do not use paper that has been already printed on or that
has been fed through a photocopier.

• Do not use paper with irregularities, such as tabs or
staples.

• Do not attempt to load any tray during printing and never
overfill the tray. This could cause a paper jam.

Choosing Paper and Other Media

• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or
texture that is too smooth or too rough.

• Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white
photocopy paper. The pigments must withstand the printer’s
fusing temperature of 400°F (205°C) for 0.1 second without
deterioration. Do not use paper with a colored coating that
was added after the paper was produced.

• Preprinted forms must be printed with nonflammable, heat­resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release
hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer’s
approximately 400°F (205°C) fusing temperature for 0.1
second.

• Store paper in its ream wrapper until it is ready to use.
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 paper away from moisture, direct sunlight or other
conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.

P

RINT MEDIA

4.3

Selecting the Output Tray

The printer has two output locations: the rear output tray and the top output tray.
To use the top output tray, be sure the rear output tray is closed. To use the rear output tray,
open it.

• If paper coming out of the top output tray has problems, such as excessive curl, try

printing to the rear output tray.

• To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear output tray while the printer is
printing.

Printing to the Top Output Tray

The top output tray collects paper face-down, in
correct order. The top output tray should be used

for most print jobs and is recommended for printing
the following:

• over 250 sheets of paper, continuously

(Face down)

Printing to the Rear Output Tray

The printer always prints to the rear output tray if it
is open. Paper comes out of the printer face-up,
with the last page on top.

Printing from the Multi-Purpose Tray to the rear
output tray provides the straight paper path.

Using the Multi-Purpose Tray

The Multi-Purpose Tray is located in the front of your printer.
It can be closed when you are not using it, making the printer
more compact. The Multi-Purpose Tray can hold several sizes
and types of paper, such as transparencies, cards, and
envelopes. You may also want to use the Multi-Purpose Tray
for single page print jobs on letterheads, colored paper for use
as separator sheets, or other special paper that you do not
normally keep in the paper tray.

You can load approximately 100 sheets of paper, 10 envelopes,
20 transparencies, 10 card stocks or 25 labels at a time.

When you print from the Multi-Purpose Tray, you must select
Multi-Purpose Tray for Paper Source from your software
application, and then select the paper size and type from the
software application for the paper you have loaded.
See page 5.3.

Loading Paper

• Load only one size of print media at a time in the Multi­Purpose 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 materials.

• Print media should be loaded face up with the top of the
print media going into the Multi-Purpose Tray first and

be

placed against the left edge of the tray.

• Do not place objects on the Multi-Purpose Tray. Also avoid
pressing down or applying excessive force on it.

Printing on Labels

Guidelines

• Only use labels recommended for laser printers.

• Do not load more than 25 labels into the Multi-Purpose Tray at a time.

• Verify that the labels’ adhesive material can tolerate fusing temperature of 200°C
(392°F) for 0.1 second.

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between the 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 feed a sheet of labels through the printer more than once. The adhesive backing
is designed for one pass through the printer.

• Do not use labels that are wrinkled, bubbled, separated from the backing sheet, or
damaged in any way.

1

Open the Multi-Purpose Tray and the
rear output tray.

2

Load labels with print side up, and
against the left edge of the tray. Adjust
the guide to fit the width of the labels.

page 5.3.

Note: To prevent them from sticking
together, remove label sheet from the
output tray as they are printed out.

4.14

P

RINT MEDIA

Printing on Transparencies

Guidelines

• Only use transparencies recommended for use in laser printers.

• Do not load more than 20 transparencies into the Multi-Purpose Tray at a time.

• Make sure that the transparencies are not wrinkled or curled, and that they do not have
any torn edge.

• Hold the transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side. Oils from your
fingers that are deposited on the transparency can cause print quality problems.

• Be careful not to scratch or leave fingerprints on the print side.

1

Open the Multi-Purpose Tray and pull
the extender out of its full-length
position.

2

Load transparencies with print side
up, and the top with the adhesive
strip entering the printer first.

Adjust the guide to fit the width of the
transparencies.

3

When you print on transparencies,
configure the paper source, type and
size in the software application. For
details, see page 5.3.

Notes:

• To prevent transparencies from sticking
together, remove them from the output
tray as they are printed.

• Place transparencies on a flat surface
after removing them from the printer.

Printing on Preprinted Paper

XXXXXXXXXX

Preprinted paper is paper that has some type of printing placed on it before it is sent through
the printer (paper that has a preprinted logo at the top of the page, for example).

Guidelines

• Letterheads 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 400°F
(205°C) for 0.1 second.

• Ink on letterheads must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect any printer
rollers.

• Forms and letterheads should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes
during storage.

• Before you load preprinted paper as forms and letterheads, verify that the ink on the
paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper.

Using Toner Save Mode

Toner Save mode allows the printer to use less toner on each
page. Selecting this option will extend the life of your toner
cartridge and reduce your cost per page, but will reduce print
quality. This setting is not available with 1200 dpi settings.

There are two ways to enable the Toner Save mode.

To enable this feature from the ML-1450 series
printer

Press the Toner Save button on the control panel. The printer
must be in the ready mode (Data light is on).

• If the button backlight is on, toner save mode activates and
the printer uses less toner to print a page.

• If the button backlight is off, toner save mode is disabled
and the printer prints in the normal mode.

To enable this feature from the software application

1. When you change the print settings from your software

application, access the printer properties. See page 5.2 to
access the printer properties.

2. Click the Graphic tab, and select the Toner Save Mode

option. You can select from:

• Printer Setting: If you select this option, this feature is
determined by the setting you’ve made on the control
panel of the printer.

• Standard: If you don’t need to save toner to print a
document, select this option.

• Save: Select this option to allow the printer to use less
toner on each page.

3. Click OK.

Printing on Both Sides of the Paper (Manual Duplexing)

To print on both sides of the paper (manual duplexing), you
must run the paper through the printer twice. You can print
using the top output tray (face down tray) or the rear output
tray (face up tray). Samsung recommends using the top
output tray for light-weight paper. Use the rear output tray for
any heavy media or media that tends to curl when printed,
such as envelopes and card stock.

Note: To print on both sides of the paper, you must use the

Multi-Purpose Tray for the paper input source. Load paper in the

Multi-Purpose Tray.

When you change the print settings from your software
application, access the printer properties. See page 5.2 to
access the printer properties.

From the Paper tab, select the paper orientation, source,

What is an Overlay?

Creating a New Page

Overlay

An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer HDD
as a special file format that can be printed on any document
you choose. Overlays are often used to take the place of
preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using
preprinted letterhead, for example, you can create an overlay
containing the exact same information that is currently on
your letterhead. Then when you want to print a letter with
your company’s letterhead, you do not need to load preprinted
letterhead paper in the printer. You need only to tell the
printer to print the letterhead overlay on your document.

To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay
containing your logo or image.

1

Create or open a document containing a text or image you
want to use for page overlay. Position the items exactly as
you wish them to appear when printed as an overlay. If
needed, save the file for later use.
