Thank You for Choosing Samsung

Thank you for choosing Samsung! Your new machine represents the very latest technology. It is a full-featured, high-performance machine built to strict quality standards set by Samsung

the highest in the industry. WeÕre proud to offer you a

product that will provide convenient, dependable service for years to come.

Important Safety Information

Always be careful when using the machine. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and other injuries, keep these safety considerations in mind when installing, using, and maintaining your machine:

¥ Stability. Place the machine on a secure, stable surface. The machine can cause serious

damage if it falls.

¥ Power Supply. Provide the correct power to the machine, as listed on its back. If you

arenÕt sure of the type of power thatÕs supplied to your home or office, call your electric company.

¥ Grounding. If the plug has three prongs, it must be plugged into a grounded

(threehole) outlet. Grounded plugs and outlets are designed for your safety

donÕt try to make a three-prong plug fit into a two-prong outlet by modifying the plug or outlet in any way. If you canÕt insert the plug into your wall outlet easily, the outlet should be inspected by a qualified electrician.

¥ Overload. DonÕt plug too many electrical devices into a wall outlet or extension cord.

An overloaded outlet is a fire and electrical shock hazard.

¥ Cleaning. Before cleaning the machine, unplug it from both the power outlet and the

telephone jack. Clean exposed parts with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water. DonÕt use aerosol cleaners.

¥ Thunderstorms. Unplug electrical appliances during thunderstorms. Avoid using any

telephone (except a cordless model) during a thunderstorm, since thereÕs a small chance you could get an electrical shock from lightning.

¥ Gas Leaks. Never use any telephone close to a gas leak. If you think gas is leaking,

call the gas company immediately, but use a telephone far away from the leak area. A small electrical spark in the telephone could cause a fire.

Fax Theory

Thank you for your purchase of this SAMSUNG multi-function fax machine. We want you to get maximum use from your new equipment, therefore we would like to explain a little bit about FAX machines and how they work. This will help when reading the rest of this manual and becoming acquainted with FAX machines in general, plus all the features available with your new machine.

Most people donÕt realize it, but the fax machine has been around in various forms since the time of the invention of the telegraph in the mid-nineteenth century. Early fax machines were large, slow, and difficult to operate. Equipment and techniques for sending copies of documents across long distances have improved over the years, and todayÕs fax machine is small, fast, and easy to operate.

A fax machine may appear complex, but in reality, modern fax machines are merely a combination of several very familiar machines.

First of all, faxing makes use of processes very much like an office copier. When you send a fax document to someone, the machine makes an internal copy of it (a facsimile, hence the term ÒfaxÓ), and converts that copy to electronic signals which we call ÒdataÓ. The data is then sent out over the telephone line as a series of audible tones. When you receive a fax from someone else, the copy process simply converts these tones from the telephone line back to data, and then to printed output.

Fax machines depend very much on telephone technology, since they must dial telephone numbers, answer calls, and exchange fax data (their version of ÒspeechÓ) over the phone line with other fax machines.

To send a fax document, you tell the fax machine the telephone number to call by entering the number on a Touch-Tone keypad, just like a telephone. You may also store frequently-called numbers in the machineÕs various memory locations. This makes dialling faster, more accurate, and allows your machine to ÒrememberÓ telephone numbers for performing many automatic functions.

After dialling the number, the fax machine you are calling answers the call and, just as people do, the machines introduce themselves and make sure they have compatible features and speak the same ÒlanguageÓ (fax engineers call this process ÒhandshakingÓ). The machines also determine the quality of the sound over the telephone line and decide whether they should continue, or perhaps ÒtalkÓ slower in the case of noise or low volume. They may even refuse to speak to each other and will hang up, rather than waste time when it is not possible to have a ÒconversationÓ (just like people!). In this case, they often try the call again later, when the telephone connection may be better.

After a few seconds exchanging pleasantries (handshaking), the machines decide to get down to the business of the call: sending and receiving a fax document.

A fax document is one or more sheets of paper which have been placed in the transmitting (sending or TX) machine. As soon as the machines have finished with their ÒintroductionsÓ, the document begins to move through the transmitting machine where it is read and converted to a data signal, exactly as in a copier. The difference here is that the print mechanism of the copying process is not located in the same machine as the reading mechanism. It is several miles, or even several thousand miles, away, and prints the data signals which arrive over the telephone line in the form of tones.

As far as it goes, this description of the fax process is accurate, and should be kept in mind whenever using any fax machine.

Multi-function machine

But...your new SAMSUNG multi-function machine provides features far beyond those of the basic fax. The multi-function fax machine package, consisting of the SF4100 or SF4200 series fax machine and the software for your PC, are designed to work together to effectively combine the utility of the fax machine with the power of the Personal Computer, thus providing a spectrum of useful features not possible with either unit alone.

Your PC utilizes the SAMSUNG multi-function machine as an input and output device, very much like any other attachment you may currently have connected to your computer. This package will enable you to scan text and graphic documents and store or edit them in your PC. You may also print any document contained in your PC, in color, on your multi-function machine.

Additionally, your PC serves as a versatile control unit for your multi-function machine. You will see how to receive faxes directly into your PC, send documents directly from word processing or graphics applications, even control your multi-function machine remotely, a very useful feature when traveling out of the office to other locations.

The remainder of this manual will show you how to use each of these features to save time and money.

Paper Type and Sizes

Because all paper varies in physical characteristics, you can receive mixed results from different packages of paper even though the packages contain the same type of paper. If you encounter undesirable results, try the other side of the paper, a different type, or another package of the same kind of paper.

Do not use the following types of paper with the printer: ¥ Continuous form feed paper ¥ Synthetic paper ¥ Thermal paper ¥ Multi-sheet forms and documents ¥ Chemically treated paper (carbonless paper) ¥ Papers with raised, embossed lettering

To load paper with a preferred print side: ¥ If youÕre using xerographic paper, load the paper with the preferred print side facing

down.

¥ If youÕre using letterhead or bond paper, load the paper with the preferred side facing up.

The following paper sizes can be used in your machine for fax:

Note : To print on card stock, load the stock with the envelope guide in an upright position.
