Regulatory Compliance Statements

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.

Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for

ecific 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, contact your local Radio Approval agency for requirements. Wireless devices are closely regulated and use may not be allowed.

The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be emb

edd

ed 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.

As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) betwe

en 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.

This transmitter must not be collocated or operation

in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. E

xamples of common restrictions are listed below:

Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless devices to be turned off while traveling in an airplane. IEEE 802.11 (also known as wireless Ethernet) and Bluetooth communication devices are examples of devices that provide wireless communication.

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 authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.

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.

Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use it. Contact manufacturer for service.

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.

Introducing useful network programs

There are several programs available to setup the network settings easily in network environment. For the network administrator especially, managing several machines on the network is possible.

Before using the programs below, set the IP address first.

SyncThru™ Web Service

Web server embedded on your network machine, which allows you to:

• Configure the network parameters necessary for the machine to connect

various network environments.

• Customize machine settings.

See "Using SyncThru™ Web Service" on page 51.

SyncThru™ Web Admin Service

A web-based machine management solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin Service provides you with an efficient way of managing network devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network machines from any site with corp

orate internet access. Download

this program from http://solution.samsungprinter.com.

Getting started

Choosing your network connection

Typically, you can only have one connection between your computer and the machine at a time. There are two types of network connections to consider:

• Wireless network without access Point (Ad-Hoc mode)

• Wireless network with an access Point (Infrastr

ucture mode)

Infrastructure mode

This is an environment generally used for homes and SOHOs (Small Office/ Home Office). This mode uses an access point to communicate with the wireless machine.

• See "Installing the machine on a wireless

network with an access point (Windows)" on page 28.

• See "Installing the machine on a wireless

network with an access point (Macintosh)" on page 31.

Ad-Hoc mode

This mode does not use an access point. The wireless computer and wireless machine communicates directly.

• See "Installing the machine on an Ad-Hoc

wireless network (Windows)" on page 29.

• See "Installing the machine on an Ad-Hoc

wireless network (Macintosh)" on page 32.

After choosing your configuration, follow the simple directions for your computer’s operating system, but first locate the software CD supplied with the machine before proceeding.

Page 27

Wireless network setup_ 27

Wireless network name and network key

Wireless networks require higher security, so when an access point is first set up, a network name (SSID), the type of security used, and a Network Key are created for the network. Locate this information before proceeding with the machine installation.

Printing network configuration report

In ready mode, press and hold the (WPS button) for about 15 seconds.

You can find your machine’s MAC address and IP address. For example:

• MAC Address: 00:15:99:41:A2:78

heck the wireless reception around the machine. If the reception is far

from th

e machine or there is an obstacle, you might have difficulty

receiving the signal.

Page 34

Wireless network setup_ 34

• Cycle the power for the access point (or wireless router), machine, and

computer. Sometimes cycling the power can recover network communication.

• Check whe

ther firewall software (V3 or Norton) is blocking the

communication. If the computer and the machine is con

nected on the same network and it cannot be searched, firewall software might be blocking the communication. Refer to the user's guide for the software to turn it off and try searching for the machine again.

• Check wh

ether the machine's IP address is allocated correctly. You can

check the IP address by printing the network configuration report.

• Check whether the access point (or wireless router) has a configured

security (password). If it has a password, refer to the access point (or wireless router) administrator.

• Check whe

ther the machine's IP address. Reinstall the machine driver and change the settings to connect to the machine on the network. Due to the characteristics of DHCP, the allocated IP address could change if the machine is not used for a long time or if the access point has been reset.

• Check

the wireless environment. You might not be able to connect to the network in the infrastructure environment where you need to type in a user's information before connecting to access point (or wireless router).

• Thi

s machine only supports IEEE 802.11 b/g/n and Wi-Fi. Other wireless

communication (Bluetooth) is not supported.

• When using the Ad-hoc mode, for operating systems such as Windows

Vista, you might need to set the wireless connection setting every time you use the wireless machine.

• You

cannot use infrastructure mode and Ad-hoc mode at the same time

for Samsung wireless network machines.

• Check if the machine is within the range of the wireless network.

• The

machine is located away from obstacles that could block the

wireless signal. Remove any large metal objects between the access point (or wireless

router)

and the machine.

Make sure the machine and wireless acce

ss point (or wireless router) are not separated by poles, walls, or support columns containing metal or concrete.

• The

machine is located away from other electronic devices that may

interfere with the wireless signal. Many devices can interfere with

the wireless signal, including a

microwave oven and some Bluetooth devices.

r, more vibrant images.

• 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 section 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.

• Befo

re purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it meets the specifications in this user’s guide and that it meets your output requirements.

• Using print media that does not meet these specifications may

cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by the 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 67.)

• Using

inflammable print media can cause a fire.

• Use designated print media (See "Print media specifications" on

page 67).

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

Envelopes

Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes.

To print on an envelope, the stamp area should be on the left side and the e

nd of the

envelope with the stamp area should enter the printer first in the

center of the tray.

• When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:

- Weight: Th

e weight of the envelope paper should not exceed

90 g/m

otherwise, jams may occur.

- Construction: Prior to

printing, envelopes should lie flat with less

than 6 mm ( 0.24 inch.) of curl, and should not contain air.

- Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, nor

dama

ged.

- Temperature: Use en

velopes that are compatible with the heat and

pressure of the machine during operation.

• Use only wel

-constructed envelopes with sharp-and well-creased folds.

• Do not use stam

ped envelopes.

• Do not use envelope

s with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining,

self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.

• Do not use damag

ed or poo

rly made envelopes.

• Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to

e corner of the envelope.

1 Acceptable 2 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 about 170°C (338 °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 qual

ity, position margins no closer than 15 mm ( 0.59

inch.) from the edges of the envelope.

• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.

Transparencies

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

• Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand

machine’s fusing temperature.

• Pl

ace them on a flat surface after

removing them from the machine.

• Do not leave unused transparencies on 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 transparencies

carefully.

• T

o avoid fading, do not expose printed transpa

rencies to prolonged

sunlight.

• En

sure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn

dges.

• Do not use transparencies that separate from the backing sheet.

• To prevent transparencies from sticking

to each other, do not let the

printed sheets stack up as they are begin printed out.

Labels

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

• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:

- Adhesives: Th

e adhesive material should be stable at your

machine’s fusing temperature (about 170°C (338 °F)).

- Arra

ngement: Onl

y 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

(0.51 inch.) of curl in any direction.

- Co

ndition: D

o not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other

indications of separation.

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.

Page 40

Media and tray_ 40

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

wrinkle

d, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.

Card stock/Custom-sized paper

Postcards, cards and other custom-sized materials can be printed with this machine.

• Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm (3.00 inches) wide or 183 mm

(7.20 inches) long.

• In software applications, set the margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches)

away from the edges of the material.

Letterhead/Preprinted paper

Single-sided Double-sided

Face up Face down

• Letterhead/ Preprinted paper must be printed with heat-resistant ink that

will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing temperature (about 170°C(338 °F) for 0.1 second.

• Letterhea

d/ Prep

rinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not

adversely affect machine rollers.

• Forms and

letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to

prevent changes during storage.

• Before you load letterhead/preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the

paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.

Using the output support

The surface of the output tray may become hot if you print a large number of pages at once. Make sure that you do not touch the

surface, and do not allow children near it.

The printed pages stack on the output support, and the output support will help the printed pages to align. The printer sends printouts to the output tray by default.

Page 45

Printing_ 45

letterhead, you do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the machine, instead you can just print the letterhead overlay on your document.

Creating a new overlay

To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay file containing your content.

1. Create or open a document containing the content you want to use in

a ne

w page overlay. Position the items exactly where you want them

to appear when they are added to the original.

• Storing the toner cartridge

• Tips for moving & storing your machine

Printing a machine report

You can print a configuration page to view current printer settings, or to help troubleshoot printer problems.

(See "(WPS) button" on page 20.)

Cleaning a machine

If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty environment, you need to clean your machine regularly to keep the the most optimum print quality.

• Cleaning the outside of the machine with cleaning materials

containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.

• If your machine or the surroundin

g area is contaminated with toner, we recommend that you use a cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air and might be harmful if inhaled.

Cleaning the outside

Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the machine.

Cleaning the inside

During the printing process, paper dust, toner, and dust particles in the air 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.

1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to

cool down.

2. Ope

n the top cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean flat

sur

face.

• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to

light for more than few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.

• Do n

ot touch the green surface of the drum located in the toner cartridge or imaging unit. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

3. With a dry, lint-free cloth, wipe away an

y dust and spilled toner from the

toner cartridge area.

While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to damage the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents

Page 54

Maintenance_ 54

such as benzene or thinner to clean. Printing quality problems can occur and cause damage to the machine.

4. Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the top cover.

5. Plug in

the power cord and turn the machine on.

Storing the toner cartridge

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

Store this cartridge in the same environment as the printer it will be used in; this should be in controlled office temperature and humidity conditions. The toner cartridge should remain in its original, unopened package until installation – If original packaging is not available, cover the top opening of the cartridge with paper and store it 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, always store the cartridge according to the following guidelines:

• In

side the protective bag from the original package.

• Sto

re lying flat (not standing on end) with the same side facing up as if it

was installed in the machine.

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

- Te

mperature greater than 40°C (104°F).

- Humid

ity range less than 20% and not greater than 80%.

- An enviro

nment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature.

- Direct sunli

ght or room light.

- Dusty places.

- A ca

r for a long period of time.

- An enviro

nment where corrosive gases are present.

- An enviro

nment with salty air.

Handling instructions

• Do not touch the surface of the photoconductive drum in the cartridge.

• Do not expose

the cartridge to unnecessary vibrations or shock.

• Never

manually rotate the drum, especially in the reverse direction; this

can cause internal damage and toner spillage.

Use of non-Samsung and refilled toner cartridge

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 cartridge.

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, printing interval, media type, and/or media size. For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the consumption of the toner is high and you may need to change the cartridge more often.

Tips for moving & storing your machine

When moving the machine, do not tilt or turn it upside down. Otherwise, the inside of the machine may be contaminated by toner, which can cause damage to the machine or reduce print quality.

Troubleshooting_ 55

9.troubleshooting

This chapter gives helpful information for what to do if you encounter an error.

This chapter includes:

• Redistributing toner

• Tips for avoiding paper jams

• Clearing paper jams

• Solving other problems

Redistributing toner

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

• White streaks or light printing occurs.

• The

LED blinks red.

If this happens, you can temporarily improve print qu

ality 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.

1. Open the top cover.

When you open the top cover, make sure that the output tray is closed.

2. Pull the toner cartridge out.

3. Thoroughly roll the cartridge five or six times to distribute the toner

evenly inside 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.

Do not touch the drum in the the toner cartridge or imaging unit. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

4. Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge into

the opening in the machine.

The 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.

5. Close the top cover. Ensure that the cover is securely closed.

Tips for avoiding paper jams

By selecting the correct media types, most paper jams can be avoided. When a paper jam occurs, refer to the guidelines below:

• En

sure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly. (See

"Load

ing paper in the tray" on page 37.)

• Do

not overload the tray. Ensure that the pap

er level is below the paper

capacity mark on the inside of the tray.

• 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 paper types in a tray.

• Use only recommended print media.

• Ensure that the recommended side of the print media is facing the right

de. (See "Loading paper in the tray" on page 37.)

Clearing paper jams

If a paper jam occurs, the LED on the control panel lights orange. Find and remove the jammed paper.

To resume printing after clearing paper jams, you must open and close the top cover.

To avoid tearing the paper, pull the jammed paper out slowly and carefully. Follow the instructions in the following sections to clear the jam.

Page 56

Troubleshooting_ 56

In tray

Click this link to open an animation about clearing a jam.

1. If the output tray is opened, close the outpu

t tray first.

2. Open and close the top cover. The jammed paper is automatically

ejected

from the machine. Make sure to open the output tray before

paper ejects from the machine. If the paper does not eject, go to the next step.

3. Remove the jammed

Printing quality problems

If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, there might be a reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the problem.

Condition Suggested Solutions

Light or faded print • 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 "Redistributing toner" on page 55.) If this does not improve the print quality, install a new toner cartridge.

• T

he paper may not meet pape

r specification; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough. (See "Print media specifications" on page 67.)

• If the entire pa

ge is lig

ht, 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.

• A combina

tion of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 53.)

Toner specks

• The paper may not meet specification; for

example, the paper may be too moist or rough. (See "Print media specifications" on page 67.)

rocesses can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper.

• Change the printer option and try again. Go

to Printing

Preferences, click the Paper

tab, and set type to Thick. (See "Opening printing preferences" on page 42.)

• If th

ese steps do not correct the problem,

ntact a service representative.

White Spots If white spots appear on the page:

• The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from a

per falls to the inner devices within the machine, so the transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 53.)

• T

he paper path may need cleaning. (See

"Cleaning the inside" on page 53.)

Vertical lines

If black vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The surface (drum part)

of the toner cartridge inside the machine has probably been scratched. Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one. (See "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 64.)

If white vertical streaks appear on the page:

• T

he surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. (See "Cleaning the inside" on page 53.)

Black background If the amount of background shading becomes

unacceptable:

• Ch

ange to a lighter weight paper. (See "Print

medi

a specifications" on page 67.)

• Check the environmental conditions: very

dry conditions or a high level of humidity (higher than 80% RH) can increase the amount of background shading.

• Re

move the old toner cartridge and, install a

w one. (See "Replacing the toner

cartridge" on page 64.)

Toner smear

If toner smears on the page:

• Clean the inside of the machine. (See

Vertical repetitive defects

If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even intervals:

• T

he toner cartridge may be damaged. If you

still

have the same problem, remove the toner cartridge and, install a new one. (See "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 64.)

• 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.

Background scatter

Background scatter results from bits of toner randomly distributed on the printed page.

• T

he paper may be too damp. Try printing

ith a fresh ream 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,

ange the printing layout to avoid printing over areas that have overlapping seams on the reverse side. Printing on seams can cause problems.

• If b

ackground scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print quality through your software application or in Printing Preferences. (See "Opening printing preferences" on page 42.)

“File in Use” message appears during installation.

Exit all software applications. Remove all software from the startup group, then restart Windows. Reinstall the printer driver.

“General Protection Fault”, “Exception OE”, “Spool 32”, or “Illegal Operation” messages appear.

Close all other applications, reboot Windows and try printing again.

“Fail To Print”, “A printer timeout error occurred” messages appear.

These messages may appear during printing. Just keep waiting until the machine finishes printing. If the message appears in ready mode or after printing has been completed, check the connection and/or whether an error has occurred.

Refer to the Microsoft Windows User’s Guide that came with your computer for further information on Windows error messages.

Common Linux problems

condition Suggested solutions

The machine does not print.

• Check if the printer driver is installed in your

system. Open the Unified Driver Configurator and switch to the Printers tab in Printers configuration window to look at the list of available machines. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the list. If not, open Add new printer wizard to set up your device.

• Ch

eck if the machine is started. Open

Printers con

figuration and select your

machine on the printers list. Look at the description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains Stopped string, press the Start button. After that normal operation of the machine should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occur.

• Check if your application is not using a 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 the command line parameter.

The machine does not print whole pages, and output is printed on half the page.

It is a known problem that occurs when a color machine is used on version 8.51 or earlier of Ghostscript, 64-bit Linux OS, and has been reported to bugs.ghostscript.com as Ghostscript Bug 688252. The problem is solved in AFPL Ghostscript v. 8.52 or above. Download the latest version of AFPL Ghostscript from http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghostscript/ and install it to solve this problem.

I encounter the “Cannot open port device file” error when printing a document.

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 the port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps the port locked and unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurs, try to release the port by selecting Release port in Port configuration window.

Refer to the Linux User’s Guide that came with your computer for further information on Linux error messages.

Character Voids

Character voids are white areas within parts of characters that should be solid black:

• If you

are using transparencies, try another

type of tra

nsparency. Because of the composition of transparencies, some character voids are normal.

• Yo

Glossary_ 71

glossary

The following glossary helps you get familiar with the product by understanding the terminologies commonly used with printing as well as mentioned in this user’s guide.

802.11

802.11 is a set of standards for wireless local area network (WLAN) communication, developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE 802).

802.11b/g/n

802.11b/g/n can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band.

802.11b supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, 802.11n supports bandwidth up to 150 Mbps. 802.11b/g/n devices may occasionally suffer interference from microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and Bluetooth devices.

Access point

Access Point or Wireless Access Point (AP or WAP) is a device that connects wireless communication devices together on wireless local area networks (WLAN), and acts as a central transmitter and receiver of WLAN radio signals.

ADF

An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a scanning unit that will automatically feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan some amount of the paper at once.

AppleTalk

AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc for computer networking. It was included in the original Macintosh (1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.

BIT Depth

A computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to represent the color of a single pixel in a bitmapped image. Higher color depth gives a broader range of distinct colors. As the number of bits increases, the number of possible colors becomes impractically large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly called as monochrome or black and white.

BMP

A bitmapped graphics format used internally by the Microsoft Windows graphics subsystem (GDI), and used commonly as a simple graphics file format on that platform.

BOOTP

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. BOOTP enables 'diskless workstation' computers to obtain an IP address prior to loading any advanced operating system.

CCD

Charge Coupled Device (CCD) is a hardware which enables the scan job. CCD Locking mechanism is also used to hold the CCD module to prevent any damage when you move the machine.

Collation

Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collation is selected, the device prints an entire set before printing additional copies.

Control Panel

A control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or monitoring instruments are displayed. They are typically found in front of the machine.

Coverage

It is the printing term used for a toner usage measurement on printing. For example, 5% coverage means that an A4 sided 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 higher and at the same time, a toner usage will be as much as the coverage.

CSV

Comma Separated Values (CSV). A type of file format, CSV is used to exchange data between disparate applications. The file format, as it is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a de facto standard throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.

DADF

A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a scanning unit that will automatically feed and turn over an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan on both sides of the paper.

Default

The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its box state, reset, or initialized.

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. DHCP also provides a mechanism for allocation of IP addresses to client hosts.

Dot Matrix Printer

A dot matrix printer refers to a type of computer printer with a print head that runs back and forth on the page and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like a typewriter.

DPI

Dots Per Inch (DPI) is a measurement of resolution that is used for scanning and printing. Generally, higher DPI results in a higher resolution, more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size.

Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection. Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers.

Duplex

A mechanism that will automatically turn 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 Unit can print on both sides of paper during one print cycle.

Duty Cycle

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.

ECM

Error Correction Mode (ECM) is an optional transmission mode built into Class 1 fax machines or fax modems. It automatically detects and corrects errors in the fax transmission process that are sometimes caused by telephone line noise.

Emulation

Emulation is a technique of one machine obtaining the same results as another.

An emulator duplicates the functions of

one system with a different system, so that the second system behaves like the first system. Emulation focuses on exact reproduction of external behavior, which is in contrast to simulation, which concerns an abstract model of the system being simulated, often considering its internal state.

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. Ethernet is mostly standardized as IEEE 802.3. It has become the most widespread LAN technology in use during the 1990s to the present.

Fuser Unit

The part of a laser printer that fuses the toner onto the print media. It consists of a heat roller and a pressure roller. 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.

Gateway

A connection between computer networks, or between a computer network and a telephone line. It is very popular, as it is a computer or a network that allows access to another computer or network.

Grayscale

A 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.

Halftone

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.

HDD
