Printing a demo page
2 Basic setup
After setting up your printer, print a demo page to make sure that the
printer is operating correctly.
This chapter includes:
•
Press and hold the Cancel button for about 2 seconds.
•
A demo page prints out.
Using toner save mode

Selecting print media
5 Loading 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 printer. Print media that does not meet the
guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following
problems:
This chapter will help you understand the types of paper you can use
with your printer and how to properly load paper in the different paper
trays for the best print quality.
This chapter includes:
• Poor print quality
•
•
•
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear on the printer
Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content,
are important factors that affect the printer’s performance and the output
quality. When you choose print media, consider the following:
• Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate
for your project.
• Size: You can use any size print media that fits easily within the paper
adjusters of the paper tray.
• Weight: Your printer supports print media weights as follows:
2
- 16 to 43 lb (60 to 163 g/m ) for the standard tray and manual tray
2
- 20 to 24 lb (75 to 90 g/m ) for the manual duplex printing
• 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.
Notes
• Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section
and still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the
result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and
humidity levels, or other variables over which Samsung has no
control.
• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that
it meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.
Caution
• Using print media that does not meet these specifications may
cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not
covered by Samsung’s warranty or service agreements.

Guidelines for special print media
Guidelines for selecting and storing print media
When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print media, keep
these guidelines in mind:
Type
Guidelines
Envelopes
• Successful printing on envelopes depends
upon the quality of the envelopes. When
selecting envelopes, consider the following
factors:
• Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on
the next column.
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause
paper jams and poor print quality.
- Weight: The weight of the envelope paper
should not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb) or jamming
may occur.
• For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper
specifically recommended for use in laser printers.
• Avoid using the following print media types:
- Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes
should lie flat with less than 6 mm
(0.25 inches) curl, and should not contain air.
- Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too
smooth or too rough
- Erasable bond paper
- Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled,
nicked, or otherwise damaged.
- Multi-paged paper
- Temperature: You should use envelopes that
are compatible with the heat and pressure of
the printer during operation.
• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp
and well creased folds.
- Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper
- Carbonless paper and Tracing paper.
• Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical
smells, and damage to your printer.
• Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it.
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 stamped envelopes.
• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps,
windows, coated lining, self-adhesive 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.
o
o
• Store unused print media at temperatures between 15 C and 30 C
o
o
(59 F to 86 F). The relative humidity should be between 10% and
70%.
• Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic
container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating
your paper.
• Load special print media types one sheet at a time through the
manual tray to avoid paper jams.
Acceptable
• To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from
sticking together, remove them as they print out.
Unacceptable
CAUTION: If you print 20 envelopes in succession, the surface
of the top cover may become hot. Please exercise caution.
• Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with
more than one flap that folds over to seal must
use adhesives compatible with the printer’s
fusing temperature of 180° C (356° F) for
0.1 second. The extra flaps and strips might
cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may
even damage the fuser.
• For the best print quality, position margins no
closer than 15 mm (0.6 inches) from the edges
of the envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the
envelope’s seams meet.

Type
Guidelines
Type
Guidelines
Transparencies • To avoid damaging the printer, use only
transparencies designed for use in laser
printers.
Preprinted
paper
• Letterhead 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 180° C (356° F)
for 0.1 second.
• Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and
should not adversely affect printer rollers.
• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a
moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes
during storage.
• Before you load preprinted paper, such as
forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the
paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink
can come off preprinted paper, reducing print
quality.
• Transparencies used in the printer must be able
to withstand 180° C (356° F), the printer’s
fusing temperature.
• Place them on a flat surface after removing
them from the printer.
• Do not leave them in the paper 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.
• To avoid fading, do not expose printed
transparencies to prolonged sunlight.
• Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled,
curled, or have any torn edges.
Loading paper
Labels
• To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels
designed for use in laser printers.
• When selecting labels, consider the following
factors:
Load the print media you use for the majority of your print jobs in the tray.
The tray can hold a maximum of 250 sheets of 75 g/m2 (20 lb) plain
paper.
- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be
stable at 180° C (356° F), the printer’s fusing
temperature.
Using the standard tray
- Arrangement: Only use labels with no
exposed backing between them. Labels can
peel off sheets that have spaces between the
labels, causing serious jams.
To load paper, open the tray and load paper with the side to be printed
on facing up.
- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with
no more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any
direction.
- 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 printer components.
• Do not run a sheet of labels through the printer
more than once. The adhesive backing is
designed for only a single pass through the
printer.
You can load letterhead paper with the design side face up. The top edge
of the sheet with the logo should be entered into the printer first.
• Do not use labels that are separating from the
backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or
otherwise damaged.
Notes
• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at
a time in the manual tray.
Card stock or
custom-sized
materials
• Do not print on print media smaller than 76 mm
(3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long.
• In the software application, set margins at least
6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of
the material.
• You can load previously printed paper. The printed side should
be facing down with an uncurled edge enter the printer first. If
you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper
around. Note that the print quality is not guaranteed.

Adjust the manual tray paper width guides to the width of the paper.
Do not force too much, or the paper will bend, which could result in
a paper jam or skew.
Using the manual tray
The manual tray can hold special sizes and types of print media, such as
transparency, postcard, note card, and envelope. It is useful for single
page printing on special print media.
To load paper in the manual tray:
1
Load one sheet of paper with the side to be printed on facing up.
3
When you print a document, set the paper source and type in the
software application. See the Software Section.
Tips on using the manual tray
• Load only one sheet of print media at a time in the manual tray.
Depending on the print media type you are using, keep the
following loading guidelines:
• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in
the manual tray. This also applies to the standard tray.
• Envelopes: Flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left
side.
• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the
manual tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.
• Transparencies: Print side up and the top with the adhesive strip
entering the printer first.
jams and print quality problems.
• Labels: Print side up and the top short edge entering the printer
first.
Using manual feed mode
• Preprinted paper: Design side up and the top edge entering the
printer first.
You can manually load a sheet of print media in the manual tray if you
select Manual Feeder in the Source option from the Paper tab when
you change print settings to print a document. See the Software
Section. Manually loading paper can be helpful when you want to check
the print quality after each page is printed.
• Card stock: Print side up and the short edge entering the printer
first.
• Previously printed paper: Previously printed side down and an
uncurled edge entering the printer first.
Load paper sheet-by-sheet in the manual tray, send print data to print the
first page, and press the Cancel button on the control panel to print each
following page.
Note
• For transparency, hold it by the edges and avoid touching the
print side. Oils from your fingers can cause print quality
problems.

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 printer lasts an average of 1,000 pages.) The actual
number may also be different depending on the print density of the
pages you print on, and the number of pages may be affected by
operating environment, printing interval, print media type, and print
media size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the
cartridge more often.

This chapter provides helpful information for what to do if you encounter
an error while using your printer.
• When removing paper that is jammed in the printer, if possible
always pull the paper in the direction that it normally moves so
as not to damage internal components. Always pull firmly and
evenly; do not jerk the paper. If the paper tears, ensure that all
fragments of paper are removed; otherwise a jam will occur
again.

• Do not overload the tray.
• Do not remove paper from the tray while your printer is printing.
• Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading.
• Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.
• Do not mix paper types in the tray.
.
Caution
• Ensure that the recommended print side of print media is facing up in
the tray.
• When removing the jammed paper, be careful not to touch the
heat roller (located underneath the inner cover). It is hot and
could cause burns!
• The top and inner cover themselves may also be hot due to
the heat roller. Allows the printer to cool before opening the
covers.

Background
scatter
Background scatter results from bits of toner
distributed on the printed page.
Wrinkles or
creases
• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.
• Check the paper type and quality. See page
5.2.
• Turn over the stack of paper in the tray. Also
try rotating the paper 180° in the tray.
• The paper may be too damp. Try printing with
a different batch of paper. Do not open
packages of paper until necessary so that the
paper does not absorb too much moisture.
• If background scatter occurs on an envelope,
change the printing layout to avoid printing
over areas that have overlapping seams on
the reverse side. Printing on seams can cause
problems.
• If background scatter covers the entire
surface area of a printed page, adjust the print
resolution through your software application or
via the printer properties window.

• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.
• Check the paper type and quality. See page
5.2.
• Ensure that the paper is loaded correctly and
the adjustable guides are not too tight or too
loose against the paper stack.
Loose toner
• Clean the inside of the printer.
• Check the paper type and quality. See page
5.2.
• If the problem persists, the printer may require
repair. Contact a service representative.
Curl or wave
• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.
• Check the paper type and quality. Both high
temperature and humidity can cause paper
curl. See page 5.2.
• Turn over the stack of paper in the tray. Also

Character voids are white areas within
characters that should be solid black:
• If you are using transparencies, try another
type of transparency. Because of the
composition of the transparency, some
character voids may be normal.

Print Odd Pages: Your printer prints only the odd numbered
pages of the document.
Print Even Pages: Your printer prints only the even
numbered pages of the document.
•
Use Printer Fonts: When Use Printer Fonts is checked, the
printer uses the fonts that are stored in its memory (resident
fonts) to print your document, rather than downloading the
fonts used in your document. Because downloading fonts takes
time, selecting this option can speed up your printing time.
When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match the fonts
used in your document to those stored in its memory. If,
however, you use fonts in your document that are very different
from those resident in the printer, your printed output will
appear very different from what it looks like on the screen.
This feature is available only when you use the PCL
printer driver.

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.
