Media and tray
This chapter provides information on how to load print media into your
machine.
3
Selecting print media
You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, and
labels. 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
•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 132).
•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.
•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 132).
•Make sure not to use the inkjet photo paper with this machine. It could
cause damage to the machine.
•Using flammable print media can cause a fire.
Use designated print media (see
•
"Print media specifications" on page 132
).
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 132).
•Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how crisp
the printing looks on the paper.

Multi-purpose tray
The multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as
postcards, note cards, and envelopes (see "Print media specifications" on page
132).
Tips on using the multi-purpose tray
•Load only one type, size and weight of print media at a time in the multipurpose tray.
•To prevent paper jams, do not add paper while printing when there is still
paper in the multi-purpose tray. This also applies to other types of print
media.
•Always load the specified print media only to avoid paper jams and print
quality problems (see "Print media specifications" on page 132).
•Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them

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 the 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.
•Do not store supplies in any of the following conditions:
-Temperature greater than 40°C (104°F).
1
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.
2
Toner cartridge usage
Samsung 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 printer warranty does not cover damage to the machine caused
by the use of refilled, remanufactured, or non-Samsung brand toner
cartridges.
-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.

Storing the toner cartridge

Estimated cartridge life
Estimated cartridge life (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
86
Page 87
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 312).
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 18).
•To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, 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 toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
•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.

Replacing the toner cartridge
The machine uses four colors and has a different toner cartridge for each one: yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), and black (K).
•The status LED and the toner-related message on the display indicate when each individual toner cartridge should be replaced.
•The computer’s Samsung Printing Status Program window appears on the computer telling you which color cartridge is empty on toner (see "Using Samsung
Printer Status" on page 312).
Check the type of the toner cartridge for your machine (see "Available supplies" on page 82).
•Shake the toner cartridge thoroughly side to side, it will increase the initial print quality.
•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 18).
•To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, 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 toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
•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.

When the life span of the waste toner container has expired, waste toner container-related message appears on the screen display of the control panel, indicating
the waste toner container needs to be replaced. Check the waste toner container for your machine (see "Available supplies" on page 82).
•Toner particles can be released inside the machine but it does not mean the machine is damaged. Contact a service representative when print quality problems
occur.
•When you pull out the waste toner container out of the machine, move the container carefully not to drop it from your hands.
•Make sure that you lay the waste toner container on a flat surface so that the toner does not spill.
