Media and tray

This chapter provides information on how to load print media into your machine.

Selecting print media

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. 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.

•

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 109).

• 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.

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 109).

• 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.

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

•

Use designated print media (see

"Print media specifications" on page 109

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.

Loading in manual feeder

The manual feeder can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes (see "Print media specifications" on page 109).

Tips on using the manual feeder

• Load only one type, size and weight of print media at time in the manual feeder.

• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper while printing when there is still paper in the manual feeder.

• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the manual feeder first and be placed in the center of the tray.

• To ensure printing quality and to prevent paper jams, only load the available paper (see "Print media specifications" on page 109).

• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the manual feeder.

• When printing on special media, you must follow the loading guidelines (see "Printing on special media" on page 39).

• When papers overlap when printing using the manual feeder, open tray and remove the papers then try printing again.

• When paper does not feed well while printing, push the paper in manually until it starts feeding automatically.

• When the machine is in a power save mode, the machine does not feed paper from the manual feeder. Wake up the machine by pressing the power button before using the manual feeder.

Envelope

Printing successfully on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes.

To print an envelope, place it as shown in the following figure.

- Temperature: should resist the heat and pressure of the machine

during operation.

• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well-creased folds.

• Do not use stamped envelopes.

• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, selfadhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.

• Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.

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

1 Acceptable 2 Unacceptable

If envelopes are printed out with wrinkles, creases, or black bold lines, open the rear cover and try printing again. Keep the rear cover opened during printing.

• When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:

- Weight: should not exceed 90 g/m2 otherwise; jams may occur.

- Construction: should lie flat with less than 6 mm curl and should not

contain air.

- Condition: should not be wrinkled, nicked, nor damaged.

• 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 for 0.1 second about 170°C. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser unit.

• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm from the edges of the envelope.

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

2. Menu Overview and Basic Setup

Page 41

Media and tray

Transparency

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

• 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 being printed out.

• Recommended media: Transparency for a color laser printer by Xerox, such as 3R 91331(A4), 3R 2780 (Letter).

• Must withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.

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

• Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.

• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.

• To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight.

• Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges.

2. Menu Overview and Basic Setup

Page 42

Media and tray

Labels

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

- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other

indications of separation.

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. 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 wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.

• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:

- Adhesives: Should be stable at your machine’s fusing temperature.

Check your machine’s specifications to view the fusing temperature (about 170°C).

- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them.

Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.

- Curl: Must lie flat with no more than 13 mm of curl in any direction.

Card stock/ Custom-sized paper

• In the software application, set the margins to at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material.

Preprinted paper

When loading preprinted paper, the printed side should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the front. If you experience problems with paper feeding, turn the paper around. Note that print quality is not guaranteed.

• Must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second (about 170°C).

• Preprinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect machine rollers.

• Before you load 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.

The replacement period varies based on the operating system used, computing performance, application software, connecting method, paper type, paper size, and job complexity.

3. Maintenance

Page 69

Storing the toner cartridge

Toner cartridge contains 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 their 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).

- Humidity range less than 20% or greater than 80%.

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.

Toner cartridge usage

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 refilled, remanufactured, or non-Samsung brand toner cartridges.

- 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.

3. Maintenance

Page 70

Storing the 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, 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

Page 71

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 264).

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 19).

• 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.

• When opening a scan unit, hold the document feeder and scan unit together.

• Printing even after the toner empty status can cause serious damage to your machine.

Tips for avoiding paper jams

By selecting the correct medias, most paper jams can be avoided. To avoid paper jams, refer to the following guidelines:

• Ensure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly (see "Tray overview" on page 35).

• 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 papers in a tray.

• Use only recommended print media (see "Print media specifications" on page 109).

• Perforated or embossed paper does not separate easily. Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and fan them.

Feed single paper from tray if there are multi-feeds or paper jams.

• Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain long paper is recommended.

• Do not use rough-edged paper.
