Important Precautions and Safety Information  
When using this machine, these basic safety precautions should always be  
followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock and injury to people:  
15. Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions.  
Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may  
require extensive work by a qualified service technician to restore the  
machine to normal operation.  
1. Read and understand all instructions.  
2. Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.  
16. Avoid using this machine during a lightning storm. There may be a  
remote risk of electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC  
power and telephone cord for the duration of the lightning storm.  
3. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine and in the  
literature accompanying the machine.  
17. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.  
4. If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information,  
heed the safety information. You may have misunderstood the operating  
instruction. If you cannot resolve the conflict, contact your sales or  
service representative for assistance.  
18. Use only No.26 AWG or larger telephone line cord.  
Laser Safety Statement  
5. Unplug the machine from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack  
before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp  
cloth for cleaning.  
The printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS  
21 CFR, chapter 1 Subchapter J for Class I(1) laser products, and elsewhere  
is certified as a Class I laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC  
825.  
6. Do not place the machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. It may fall,  
causing serious damage.  
Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The laser system  
and printer are designed so there is never any human access to laser  
radiation above a Class I level during normal operation, user maintenance or  
prescribed service condition.  
7. Your machine should never be placed on, near or over a radiator, heater,  
air conditioner or ventilation duct.  
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power. Do not locate your machine  
where the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.  
WARNING  
Never operate or service the printer with the protective cover removed from  
Laser/Scanner assembly. The reflected beam, although invisible, can  
damage your eyes.  
9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish  
performance, and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.  
10. Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone or PC interface  
cords.  
11. Never push objects of any kind into the machine through case or cabinet  
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of  
fire or shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.  
12. Your machine may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the  
document for the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type  
machine). In this case, replace the cover after placing document on the  
scan glass, by holding and moving it down slowly until it seats on its  
location.  
13. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the machine.  
Take it to a qualified service technician when repair work is required.  
Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or  
other risks. Incorrect reassembly could cause electric shock when the  
unit is subsequently used.  
14. Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, PC and AC wall outlet and  
refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following  
conditions:  
•When any part of the power cord, plug or connecting cable is damaged  
or frayed.  
•If liquid has been spilled into the machine.  
Ozone Safety  
During normal operation, this machine produces ozone.  
The ozone produced does not present a hazard to the  
operator. However, it is advisable that the machine be  
operated in a well ventilated area.  
•If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.  
•If the machine does not operate properly after instructions have been  
followed.  
•If the machine has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.

If you need additional information about ozone, please request your nearest  
Samsung dealer.

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load  
placed on the telephone line, and is useful for determining whether you have  
“overloaded” the line. Installing several types of equipment on the same  
telephone line may result in problems making and receiving telephone calls,  
especially ringing when your line is called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence  
Numbers of the equipment on your telephone line should be less than five in  
order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases,  
a sum of five may not be usable on your line. If any of your telephone  
equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from  
your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network.

Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Directive (FAX)  
This Samsung product has been self-certified by Samsung for pan-European  
single terminal connection to the analogue public switched telephone  
network (PSTN) in accordance with Directive 1999/5/EC. The product has  
been designed to work with the national PSTNs and compatible PBXs of the  
European countries:  
You should also know that:  
• Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.  
• If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone  
line as your machine, you may experience transmission and reception  
problems with all the equipment. It is recommended that no other  
equipment, except for a regular telephone, share the line with your  
machine.  
In the event of problems, you should contact the Euro QA Lab of Samsung  
Electronics Co., Ltd. in the first instance.  
The product has been tested against TBR21. To assist in the use and  
application of terminal equipment which complies with this standard, the  
European Telecommunication Standards Institute (ETSI) has issued an  
advisory document (EG 201 121) which contains notes and additional  
requirements to ensure network compatibility of TBR21 terminals. The  
product has been designed against, and is fully compliant with, all of the  
relevant advisory notes contained in this document.  
• If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we  
recommend that you install surge protectors for both the power and the  
telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or  
telephone and electronic specialty stores.  
• When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to  
emergency numbers, use a non-emergency number to advise the  
emergency service dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will give  
you further instructions on how to actually test the emergency number.  
Replacing the Fitted Plug (for UK Only)  
• This machine may not be used on coin service or party lines.  
• This machine provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.  
IMPORTANT  
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp  
plug and has a 13 amp fuse. When you change or examine the fuse, you  
must re-fit the correct 13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse cover.  
If you have lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until you have another  
fuse cover.  
• You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by  
means of a standard modular jack, USOC RJ-11C.  
Please contact the people from you purchased the machine.  
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be  
suitable. However, some buildings (mainly old ones) do not have normal 13  
amp plug sockets. You need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove  
the moulded plug.

carton. Make sure that the machine has been packed with  
the following items:  
This chapter includes:  
AC Power Cord*  
Starter Toner Cartridge  
CD-ROM**  
Quick Install Guide  
Telephone Line Cord*  
(only for SCX-4521F)  
TAM Lead  
(only for SCX-4521F and UK)  
Paper Cover***  
*.The appearance of the power cord and the telephone line cord  
may differ depending on your country’s specifications.  
**.The CD-ROM contains the Samsung printer drivers, Scan  
drivers, Printer Settings Utility, SmarThru software, the  
User’s Guide, and the Adobe Acrobat Reader program.  
***.The paper cover is to prevent dust and moisture from  
contaminating your paper loaded in the tray. When you need  
to open the machine (for example, cleaning inside of the  
machine, removing the jammed paper or installing the toner  
cartridge), remove the paper cover from your machine.  
NOTES  
:
• Components may differ from country to country.  
• You should use the telephone line cord which is supplied  
with your machine. If you are replacing it with another  
vendor’s, it should be AWG #26 or larger telephone line  
cord.  
• Power cord must be plugged into a grounded power  
socket.

Close the front door. Make sure that the door is securely  
closed. If the cover is not firmly closed, printing errors  
may occur when you print.  
Thoroughly rolling the cartridge will assure maximum  
copies per cartridge.  
NOTE: 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.  
CAUTIONS:  
To prevent damage, do not expose the toner cartridge to  
light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of  
paper, if left exposed for more than a few minutes.  
• Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use  
the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.  
NOTE: When printing text at 5% coverage, you can expect a toner  
cartridge life of approximately 3,000 pages. (1,000 pages for the  
toner cartridge that is shipped with the machine.)

Paper Handling  
This chapter introduces you to the basics of selecting print  
materials and loading them into your machine.  
Selecting Print Materials  
You can print on a variety of print materials, such as plain  
paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Always use print  
materials that meet the guidelines for use with this machine.  
possible print quality, use only high-quality copier-grade paper.  
This chapter includes:  
When you choose print materials, consider the following:  
• Size: You can use any size paper that fits easily within the  
paper adjusters of the tray.  
2
• Weight: 16 ~ 24 lb (60 to 90 g/m bond) for the tray with  
2
multi-pages feeding, and 16 ~ 43 lb (60 to 165 g/m  
bond) for the manual tray and tray with single page  
feeding.  
• Brightness: Some papers are whiter than others and  
produce sharper, more vibrant images.  
• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the paper  
affects how crisp the printing looks on the paper.  
CAUTION: Using print materials that dose not conform to the  
specifications listed on page 10.2 may cause problems that  
may require service. This service is not covered by the  
warranty or service agreements.

To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to  
prolonged sunlight.  
Guidelines for Paper and Special  
Materials  
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special  
material, keep these guidelines in mind:  
Only use transparencies recommended for use in laser  
printers.  
Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or  
have any torn edges.  
• Always use paper and other materials that conform with  
• For labels:  
Verify that their adhesive material can tolerate a fusing  
temperature of 200 oC (392 o F) for 0.1 second.  
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn  
paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.  
Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material  
between them. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off  
during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed  
adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.  
• Use only high quality copier grade paper for the best print  
quality.  
• Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a  
texture that is too smooth or too rough. Paper jams may  
occur.  
Do not load a sheet of them through the machine more  
than once. The adhesive backing is designed for one pass  
through the machine.  
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to  
use. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor.  
Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether  
it is packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from  
moisture, or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle  
or curl.  
Do not use labels that are separating from the backing  
sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled or otherwise damaged.  
Only use labels recommended for laser printers.  
• For Card Stock or Custom-sized materials:  
o
Postcards, 3.5 x 5.8 in. (89 x 148 mm) cards and other  
custom-sized materials can be printed with this printer.  
The minimum size is 3 x 5 in. (76 x 127 mm) and the  
maximum size is 8.5 x 14 in. (216 x 356 mm)  
• Store unused materials at temperatures between 15 C  
o
o
o
and 30 C (59 F to 86 F). The relative humidity should  
be between 10 % and 70 %.  
• During storage, you should use a moisture-proof wrap,  
such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and  
moisture from contaminating your paper.  
Always insert the short-edge into the tray first. If you  
want to print in landscape mode, make this selection  
through your software. Inserting paper long-edge first  
may cause a paper jam.  
• Load special paper types one sheet at a time through the  
manual tray or the tray to avoid paper jams.  
Do not print on media smaller than 3 in. (76 mm) wide or  
5 in. (127 mm) long.  
• Only use materials specifically recommended for use in  
laser printers.  
• For preprinted paper:  
To prevent special materials, such as transparencies and  
label sheets from sticking together, remove them as they  
print out.  
Letterheads must be printed with heat-resistant ink that  
will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions  
when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature of  
200 °C (392 °F) for 0.1 second.  
• For envelopes:  
Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well  
creased folds.  
Ink on letterheads must be non-flammable and should not  
adversely affect any printer rollers.  
Do not use envelopes with clasps and snaps.  
Forms and letterheads should be sealed in a moisture-  
proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage.  
Do not use envelopes with windows, coated lining, self-  
adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.  
Before you load preprinted paper as forms and  
letterheads, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During  
the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper.  
Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.  
Only use envelopes recommended for laser printers.  
Before loading envelopes in the tray, make sure that they  
are undamaged and are not stuck together.  
• Do not use Carbonless paper and Tracing paper. Use of  
these types of paper could result in chemical smells and  
could damage your machine.  
Do not feed stamped envelopes.  
• For transparencies:  
Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the  
machine.  
Do not leave them in the tray for long periods of time.  
Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty  
printing.  
To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them  
carefully.

NOTES:  
Loading Paper  
• When you print more than 20 envelopes in succession, print  
speed may be reduced.  
Proper paper loading helps prevent paper jams and ensure  
trouble-free printing. Do not remove the paper in the tray while  
a job is printing. Doing so may cause a paper jam. See “Paper  
acceptable paper size and capacity for the tray.  
• If you experience jams with card stock feeding, turn the  
paper around and try again.  
• Manually loading paper and pressing Start to start feeding is  
only available with PC printing.  
• Because the Manual Feed mode does not print jobs  
automatically and continuously, incoming faxes are stored in  
memory instead of printing immediately. (Only for SCX-  
4521F)  
• When you press Stop/Clear in the Manual Feed mode, the  
print job in progress is canceled.  
Using the Tray  
The tray holds 150 sheets of paper.  
Load a stack of paper into the tray and print. For details about  
loading paper in the tray, see “Loading Paper” on page 2.3.  
To use the special material like envelope, label and card,  
remove the stack of plain paper and load one sheet of special  
material into the tray.  
Verifying an Output Location  
Using the Manual Tray  
The machine has a paper output location which holds 50 sheets  
of paper. The output tray collects printed paper face down, in  
the order in which the sheets were printed.  
When you print a document using your PC and want to check  
the print quality after each page is printed, load the paper in  
the manual tray and select Manual Feed for Source from the  
software application.  
1
Load the print material in the tray with the print side up.  
NOTE: Pull the paper output extension not to drop the printed  
paper.  
Push the print material firmly into the manual tray.  
Adjust the paper guide against the print material without  
bending the material.  
Select Manual Feed for Source from the software  
application, and then select the correct paper size and

course, place only one sheet at a time on the document glass.  
When you use the ADF:  
• Do not load documents smaller than 5.6 x 5.8 in. (142 x  
148 mm) or larger than 8.5 x 14 in. (216 x 356 mm).  
• Do not attempt to feed the following types of documents:  
- carbon-paper or carbon-backed paper  
- coated paper  
- onion skin or thin paper  
- wrinkled or creased paper  
- curled or rolled paper  
- torn paper  
• Remove all staples and paper clips before loading  
documents.  
• Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper  
is completely dry before loading documents.  
• Do not load documents that include different sizes or  
weights of paper.  
• Do not load booklet, pamphlet, transparencies, or  
documents having other unusual characteristics.

telephone or answering machine plugged into the EXT. jack.  
“Distinctive Ring” is a telephone company service which  
enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several  
different telephone numbers. The particular number someone  
uses to call you is identified by different ringing patterns, which  
consist of various combinations of long and short ringing  
sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who  
answer telephones for many different clients and need to know  
which number someone is calling in on to properly answer the  
phone.  
Receiving Faxes in the Memory  
Since your machine is a multi-tasking device, it can receive  
faxes while you are making copies or printing. If you receive a  
fax while you are copying or printing, your machine stores  
incoming faxes in memory. Then, as soon as you finish copying  
or printing, the machine automatically prints the fax.  
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature, your fax  
machine can “learn” the ring pattern you designate to be  
answered by the fax machine. Unless you change it, this ringing  
pattern will continue to be recognized and answered as a fax  
call, and all other ringing patterns will be forwarded to the  
extension telephone or answering machine plugged into the  
EXT. jack. You can easily suspend or change Distinctive Ring  
Pattern Detection at any time.  
Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option,  
Distinctive Ring service must be installed on your telephone line  
by the telephone company. To set up Distinctive Ring Pattern  
Detection, you will need another telephone line at your  
location, or someone available to dial your fax number from  
outside.

Cleaning Your Machine  
To maintain print quality, follow the cleaning procedures below  
each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print quality  
problems occur.  
CAUTIONS:  
• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials  
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong  
substances can discolor or crack the cabinet.  
• While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to  
touch the transfer roller, located underneath the toner  
cartridge. Oil from your fingers can cause print quality  
problems.  
CAUTIONS:  
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.  
Cleaning the Outside  
Clean the cabinet of the machine with a soft lint-free cloth. You  
can dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to  
let any water drip onto or into the machine.  
• Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use  
the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.  
4
Remove the manual tray by pulling it out.  
Cleaning the Inside  
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles 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 or reduces these problems.  
1
Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for  
the machine to cool down.

Locate the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the top of the  
cartridge compartment, and gently swab the glass to see if  
dirt turns the white cotton black.  
Maintaining the Toner Cartridge  
Toner cartridge storage  
To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following  
guidelines in mind:  
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until  
ready for use.  
• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The machine warranty  
does not cover damage caused by using a refilled  
cartridge.  
• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as your  
machine.  
7
8
Reinsert the manual tray, toner cartridge and close the  
door.  
Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on.  
To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose  
it to light for more than a few minutes.  
Saving toner  
To save toner, press the Toner Save button on the control  
panel; see Toner Save Mode” on page 2.12. The button  
backlight turns on. Using this feature extends the life of the  
toner cartridge and reduces your cost per page, but it also  
reduces print quality.  
Cleaning the Scan Unit  
Keeping the scan unit clean helps ensure the best possible  
copies. We suggest that you clean the scan unit at the start of  
each day and during the day, as needed.  
1
2
Slightly dampen a soft lint-free cloth or paper towel with  
water.  
Open the document cover.  
Expected Cartridge Life  
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner  
that print jobs require. When printing text at ISO 19752 5%  
coverage, a new toner cartridge lasts an average of 3,000  
pages. (The original toner cartridge supplied with the machine  
lasts an average of 1,000 pages.) The actual number may be  
different depending on the print density of the page you print.  
If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the  
cartridge more often.

Redistributing Toner  
CAUTION: Do not touch the green underside of the toner  
cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching  
this area.  
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life, white  
streaks or light printing occurs. The LCD displays the warning  
message, “[Toner Low]. You can temporarily reestablish print  
quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In  
some case, white streaks or light printing still occurs even after  
you have redistributed the toner.

Reinstall the cartridge and close the front door. Make sure  
that the cover is securely closed. If it is not firmly closed,  
printing error may occur when you print.  
1
Open the front door.  
Replacing the Toner Cartridge  
When the display on the control panel shows the warning  
message, “[Toner Empty]” the toner cartridge has run out but  
continues printing. For the SCX-4521F, incoming faxes are  
saved in memory. At this stage, the toner cartridges needs to  
be replaced.  
NOTE: You can set the machine to ignore the “[Toner Empty]”  
message and to continue printing incoming faxes. See

Suggested solutions  
Condition  
Suggested solutions  
The document does  
not feed into the  
machine.  
• Make sure that the document is not wrinkled and  
you are putting it in correctly. Check that the  
document is the right size, not too thick or thin.  
The scanner does  
not work.  
• Make sure that you place the document to be  
scanned face down on the document glass, or face  
up in the Automatic Document Feeder.  
• Make sure that the ADF (Automatic Document  
Feeder) cover is firmly closed.  
• There may not be enough available memory to hold  
the document you want to scan. Try the Prescan  
function to see if that works. Try lowering the scan  
resolution rate.  
Faxes are not  
received  
automatically.  
• Fax mode should be selected.  
• Make sure that there is paper in the tray.  
• Check to see if the display shows “Memory Full.  
• Check that the USB or parallel cable is connected  
properly.  
The machine does  
not send.  
• Make sure that the document is loaded in the ADF  
or on the document glass.  
• Make sure that the USB or parallel cable is not  
defective. Switch the cable with a known good  
cable. If necessary, replace the cable.  
• “TX” should show up on the display.  
• Check the fax machine you are sending to, to see  
if it can receive your fax.  
• If you are using a parallel cable, ensure that it is  
compliant with IEEE 1284 standards.  
• Check that the scanner is configured correctly.  
Check scan setting in the SmarThru Configuration  
or the application you want to use to make certain  
that the scanner job is being sent to the correct  
port, for example, LPT1.  
The incoming fax has  
blank spaces or is of  
poor-quality.  
• The fax machine sending you the fax may be  
faulty.  
• A noisy phone line can cause line errors.  
• Check your machine by making a copy.  
• The toner cartridge may be empty. Replace the  
toner cartridge, referring to “Replacing the Toner  
The unit scans very  
slowly.  
• Check if the machine is printing received data. If so,  
scan the document after the received data has been  
printed.  
Some of the words  
on an incoming fax  
are stretched.  
The fax machine sending you the fax had a  
temporary document jam.  
• Graphics are scanned more slowly than text.  
• Communication speed slows in scan mode because  
of the large amount of memory required to analyze  
and reproduce the scanned image. Set your  
computer to the ECP printer mode through BIOS  
setting. It will help to increase the speed. For  
details about how to set BIOS, refer to your  
computer User’s Guide.  
There are lines on  
the documents you  
send.  
Check your scanning glass for marks and clean it.  
The machine dials a  
number, but a  
connection with the  
other fax machine  
fails.  
The other fax machine may be turned off, out of  
paper, or cannot answer incoming calls. Speak with  
the other machine operator and ask her/him to sort  
out the problem.

• Check if the scanner driver for you machine is installed in  
your system. Open MFP Configurator, switch to Scanners  
configuration, then press Drivers. Make sure that driver  
with a name corresponding to your machine's name is  
listed in the window.  
The machine  
doesn’t print.  
• Check if the printer driver is installed in your system.  
Open MFP configurator and switch to the Printers tab in  
Printers configuration window to look at the list of  
available printers. Make sure that your machine is  
displayed on the list. If not, please, invoke Add new  
printer wizard to set up your device.  
• Check if the MFP port is not busy. Since functional  
components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same  
I/O interface (MFP port), the situation of simultaneous  
access of different “consumer” application to the same  
MFP port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one  
of them at a time is allowed to gain control over the  
device. The other “consumer” will encounter “device  
busy” response. This can usually happen while starting  
scan procedure, and appropriate message box displays.  
To identify the source of the problem, you should open  
MFP ports configuration and select the port assigned to  
your scanner. MFP port's symbol /dev/mfp0 corresponds  
to LP:0 designation displayed in the scanners’ options, /  
dev/mfp1 relates to LP:1 and so on. USB ports start at /  
dev/mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to /dev/mfp4  
respectively and so forth sequentially. In the Selected  
port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some  
other application. If this is the case, you should wait for  
completion of the current job or should press Release  
port button, if you are sure that the present port's owner  
is not functioning properly.  
• Check if the printer is started. Open Printers  
configuration and select your machine on the printers list.  
Look at the description in the Selected printer pane. If its  
status contains “(stopped)” string, please, press the  
Start button. After that normal operation of the printer  
should be restored. The "stopped" status might be  
activated when some problems in printing occurred. For  
instance, this could be an attempt to print document  
when MFP port is claimed by a scanning application.

to ensure optimum performance. The required condition is 20  
to 24 °C (68 to 75 °F), with a relative humidity of 45 % to 55  
%. The following guidelines should be considered when  
evaluating the paper’s storage environment:  
Paper Specifications  
Category  
Specifications  
Acid content  
Caliper  
5.5 pH or lower  
• Paper should be stored at or near room temperature.  
• The air should not be too dry or too humid.  
3.0 ~ 7.0 mils (0.094 ~ 0.18 mm)  
Flat within 0.02 in. (5 mm)  
Cut with sharp blades with no visible fray.  
Curl in ream  
Cut edge conditions  
• The best way to store an opened ream of paper is to  
rewrap it tightly in its moisture-proof wrapping. If the  
machine environment is subject to extremes, unwrap  
only the amount of paper to be used during the day’s  
operation to prevent unwanted moisture changes.  
Must not scorch, melt, offset or release hazardous  
emissions when heated to 200 °C (392 °F) for 0.1  
second.  
Fusing compatibility  
Envelopes  
Grain  
Long grain  
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary  
considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within  
a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on  
envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When  
selecting envelopes, consider the following components:  
Moisture content  
Smoothness  
4 % ~ 6 % by weight  
100 ~ 400 Sheffield  
• Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not  
exceed 24 lb (90 g/m2 bond) or jamming may occur.  
Paper Output Capacity  
• Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat  
with less than 0.25 in. (6 mm) curl, and should not  
contain air.  
Output Location  
Capacity  
50 sheets of 20 lb (75 g/m2 bond) paper  
Face-down output tray  
• Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked or  
otherwise damaged.  
Temperature: You should use envelopes that are  
compatible with the heat and pressure of the machine.  
Paper Storage Environment  
Paper storage environmental conditions directly affect the feed  
operation.  
• Size: You should only use envelopes within the following  
size ranges.  
Ideally, the machine and paper storage environment should be  
at or near room temperature, and not too dry or humid.  
Remember that paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses  
moisture rapidly.  
Minimum  
Maximum  
8.5 x 14 in.  
3 x 5 in.  
(76 x 127 mm)  
(216 x 356 mm)  
Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the  
moisture in paper to evaporate, while cold causes it to  
condense on the sheets. Heating systems and air conditioners  
remove most of the humidity from a room. As paper is opened  
and used, it loses moisture, causing streaks and smudging.  
Humid weather or water coolers can cause the humidity to  
increase in a room. As paper is opened and used it absorbs any  
excess moisture, causing light print and dropouts. Also, as  
paper loses and gains moisture it can become distorted. This  
can cause paper jams.  
NOTES:  
• Load only one sheet of paper at a time to print envelopes.  
• You may experience some paper jams when using any media  
with a length less than 5.5 in. (140 mm). This may be  
caused by paper that has been affected by environmental  
conditions. For optimum performance, make sure you are  
storing and handling the paper correctly. Please refer to  
Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be  
used in a short time (about 3 months). Paper stored for long  
periods may experience heat and moisture extremes, which  
can cause damage. Planning is important to prevent damage to  
large supplies of paper.  
Unopened paper in sealed reams can remain stable for several  
months before use. Opened packages of paper have more  
potential for environment damage, especially if they are not  
wrapped with a moisture-proof barrier.

Envelopes with Double Side Seams  
Labels  
Double side-seams construction has vertical seams at both  
ends of the envelope rather than diagonal seams. This style  
may be more likely to wrinkle. Be sure the seam extends all the  
way to the corner of the envelope as illustrated below.  
CAUTIONS:  
To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels  
recommended for laser printers.  
To prevent serious jams, always load one sheet of paper at a  
time to print labels.  
• Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once and  
never print on a partial sheet of labels.  
Correct  
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:  
• Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at  
180°C (356°F), the machine’s fusing temperature.  
• Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing  
between them. Labels can peel off sheets with spaces  
between the labels, causing serious jams.  
Incorrect  
• Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more  
than 5 in. (13 mm) of curl in any direction.  
• Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles or  
other indications of separation.  
Envelopes with Adhesive Strips or Flaps  
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one  
flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with  
the heat and pressure in the machine. The extra flaps and strips  
might cause wrinkling, creasing or even jams and may even  
damage the fuser.  
Transparencies  
Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand  
180°C (356°F), the machine’s fusing temperature.  
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the machine, use only  
transparencies recommended for use in laser printers.  
Envelope Margins  
The following gives typical address margins for a commercial  
#10 or DL envelope.  
Type of Address  
Return address  
Minimum  
0.6 in. (15 mm)  
2 in. (51 mm)  
Maximum  
2 in. (51 mm)  
3.5 in. (90 mm)  
Delivery address  
NOTES:  
• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than  
0.6 in. (15 mm) from the edges of the envelope.  
• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams  
meet.  
Envelope Storage  
Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality.  
Envelopes should be stored flat. If air is trapped in an envelope,  
creating an air bubble, then the envelope may wrinkle during  
printing.

An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard  
disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that can be printed on  
any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of  
preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using  
preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the  
exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. To  
print a letter with your company’s letterhead, you do not need  
to load preprinted letterhead paper in the printer. You need only  
tell the printer to print the letterhead overlay on your  
document.

Sharing Ports Between Printers and Scanners  
Scanners Configuration  
In this window, you can monitor the activity of scanner devices,  
view a list of installed Samsung MFP devices, change device  
properties, and scan images.  
Your machine may be connected to a host computer via the  
parallel port or USB port. Since the MFP device contains more  
than one device (printer and scanner), it is necessary to  
organize proper access of “consumer” applications to these  
devices via the single I/O port.  
The Samsung Unified Linux Driver package provides an  
appropriate port sharing mechanism that is used by Samsung  
printer and scanner drivers. The drivers address their devices  
via so-called MFP ports. The current status of any MFP port can  
be viewed via the Ports Configuration. The port sharing  
prevents you from accessing one functional block of the MFP  
device, while another block is in use.  
Switches to  
Scanners  
configuration.  
Shows all of the  
installed scanners.  
When you install a new MFP device onto your system, it is  
strongly recommended you do this with the assistance of an  
Unified Driver Configurator. In this case you will be asked to  
choose I/O port for the new device. This choice will provide the  
most suitable configuration for MFP’s functionality. For MFP  
scanners I/O ports are being chosen by scanner drivers  
automatically, so proper settings are applied by default.  
Shows the vendor,  
model name and type  
of your scanner.
