Technology that simplies.

What good is advanced technology if it’s so complicated that you don’t want to use it? Samsung’s idea of
advanced technology includes not being interrupted with annoying things like paper jams, making your day
simpler and easier.

Intuitive Operation

screen and LEDs that inform you of your printer’s status at a glance.

Keep on Working

Samsung’s Anti-Jam Technology means more work with less downtime. Unlike other
models in this class, the Samsung ML-3312/3712 series uses an anti-jam roller, which
prevents unwanted situations such as misfeeds and paper jams.

The Samsung anti-jam
roller helps to eliminate
misfeeds, paper jams,
and waiting.
