Regulatory Compliance Statements  
Wireless Guidance  
Low power, Radio LAN type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless  
communication devices), operating in the 2.4 GHz/5 GHz Band, may be  
present (embedded) in your printer system. The following section is a general  
overview of considerations while operating a wireless device.  
Only use drivers approved for the country in which the device  
will be used. See the manufacturer System Restoration Kit,  
or contact manufacturer Technical Support for additional  
information.  
Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for specific countries are listed  
in the specific country sections (or country group sections). The wireless  
devices in your system are only qualified for use in the countries identified by  
the Radio Approval Marks on the system rating label. If the country you will  
be using the wireless device in, is not listed, please contact your local Radio  
Approval agency for requirements. Wireless devices are closely regulated  
and use may not be allowed.  
Replacing the Fitted Plug (for UK Only)  
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.  
The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be embedded in  
your printer is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this time.  
Because the wireless devices (which may be embedded into your printer)  
emit less energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety standards and  
recommendations, manufacturer believes these devices are safe for use.  
Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to minimize human  
contact during normal operation.  
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.  
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless  
device and the body, for use of a wireless device near the body (this does not  
include extremities) is typical. This device should be used more than 20 cm  
(8 inches) from the body when wireless devices are on and transmitting.  
Warning  
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.  
This transmitter must not be collocated or operation in conjunction with any  
other antenna or transmitter.  
You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you  
plug it into a socket.  
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of  
common restrictions are listed below:  
Important warning: You must earth this machine.  
The wires in the mains lead have the following color code:  
Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with  
equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation  
regulations require wireless devices to be turned off while  
traveling in an airplane. IEEE 802.11 (also known as wireless  
Ethernet) and Bluetooth communication devices are  
examples of devices that provide wireless communication.  
• Green and Yellow:  
• Blue:  
Earth  
Neutral

• Brown:  
If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colors marked in your plug, do  
the following:  
In environments where the risk of interference to other  
devices or services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the  
option to use a wireless device may be restricted or  
eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen or flammable  
gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use of  
wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When in  
environments where you are uncertain of the sanction to use  
wireless devices, ask the applicable authority for  
You must connect the green and yellow wire to the pin marked by the letter  
“E” or by the safety ‘Earth symbol’ or colored green and yellow or green.  
You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “N”  
or colored black.  
You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “L”  
or colored red.  
authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.  
You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.  
Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless  
devices. Since your system is equipped with a wireless  
device, when traveling between countries with your system,  
check with the local Radio Approval authorities prior to any  
move or trip for any restrictions on the use of a wireless  
device in the destination country.  
If your system came equipped with an internal embedded  
wireless device, do not operate the wireless device unless all  
covers and shields are in place and the system is fully  
assembled.

Introduction  
4 Network setup  
Once you have connected your printer to a network with an RJ-45  
Ethernet cable, you can share the printer with other network users.  
This chapter gives you step-by-step instructions for setting up your  
printer for network connections.  
You need to set up the network protocols on the printer to use it as your  
network printer. Protocols can be set up by the following two methods:  
This chapter includes:  
Via network administration programs  
You can configure your printer’s print server settings and manage the  
printer via the following programs that came with your printer:  
SyncThru™ Web Admin Service: A web-based printer  
management solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web  
Admin Service provides you with an efficient way of managing  
network devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot  
network printers from any site with corporate intranet access.  
SyncThru™ Web Service: A web server embedded to your network  
print server, which allows you to configure the network parameters  
necessary for the printer to connect to various network environments.  
SetIP: A utility program allowing you to select a network interface and  
manually configure the addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol.  
For further details, refer to the user’s guide on the network utilities CD  
that came with your printer.  
Via the control panel  
You can set up the following basic network parameters through the  
printer’s control panel:  
• Configure TCP/IP  
• Configure IPX frame types for NetWare  
• Configure EtherTalk

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 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:  
• The type, size and weight of the print media for your machine are  
described later in this section.  
• 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.  
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:  
Media 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 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 media types one sheet at a time through the multi-  
purpose 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  
• 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 195° C (383° 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.

Media type  
Guidelines  
Media 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 195° C (383° 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 195° C (383° 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  
1. The tray 1 can hold a maximum of 500 sheets of 75 g/m2 (20 lb) plain  
paper.  
- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be  
stable at 195° C (383° F), the printer’s fusing  
temperature.  
You can purchase optional trays and attach them below the standard tray  
to load an additional 500 sheets of paper for each tray. You can attach  
up to three additional trays. For order information for optional trays, see  
- Arrangement: Only use labels with no  
exposed backing between them. Labels can  
peel off sheets that have spaces between the  
labels, causing serious jams.  
The paper level indicator on the front of the tray 1 and the optional trays  
shows the amount of paper currently left in the tray. When the tray is  
empty, the indicator of the bar is completely lowered.  
- 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.  
• Do not use labels that are separating from the  
backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or  
otherwise damaged.  
Full  
Empty  
Card stock or  
custom-sized  
materials  
• Do not print on 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.

• Envelopes: Flap side down and with the stamp area on the top left  
side.  
Using the multi-purpose tray  
The multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and types of print media,  
such as transparencies, postcards, note cards, and envelopes. It is  
useful for single page printing on letterhead or colored paper.  
Note  
To print on envelopes, you must open the rear cover and push  
the fuser levers upwards. The print quality will be enhanced.  
To load paper in the multi-purpose tray:  
1
Pull the multi-purpose tray down towards you and pull the multi-  
purpose tray extension to hold longer paper.  
• Transparencies: Print side up and the top with the adhesive strip  
entering the printer first.  
2
If you are using paper, flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to  
separate the pages before loading.  
• Labels: Print side up and the top short edge entering the printer  
first.  
• Preprinted paper: Design side up and the top edge entering the  
printer first.  
• 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.  
For transparencies, hold them by the edges and avoid touching the  
print side. Oils from your fingers can cause print quality problems.  
Note  
3
Load the paper with the side to be printed on facing up.  
• Make sure that you have not loaded too much print media. The  
print media buckles if you load a stack that is too deep or if you  
push it in too far.  
Caution  
• When you print on special media like envelopes, labels,  
transparencies, or cards, the output location should be the rear  
cover. Open the rear cover to use it. See page 5.8.

For information about setting the paper source and type on the  
control panel, see page 2.3.  
After printing, put the multi-purpose tray extension back to its place  
and close the multi-purpose tray.  
Tips on using the multi-purpose tray  
• Load only one size of print media at a time in the multi-purpose tray.  
To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in  
the multi-purpose tray. This also applies to other tray.  
• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the  
multi-purpose tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.  
• Always load only the print media specified in page 5.2 to avoid paper  
jams and print quality problems.

When you print a document, set the paper source to Manual Feed  
and select the appropriate paper size and type in the software  
application. See the Software section.  
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading  
them into the multi-purpose tray.  
Print a document.  
• When you print on 76 mm x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches) sized media on  
the multi-purpose tray, open the rear cover for straight paper path to  
avoid paper jams.  
The display shows a message prompting you to load paper and  
press Stop.  
• When you print on transparencies, open the rear cover. If not they  
may tear while exiting the printer.  
5
Press Stop.  
The printer picks up the print media and prints. After one page is  
printed, the message appears again.  
Using manual feed mode  
Note  
You can manually load a sheet of print media in the multi-purpose tray if  
you select Manual Feed 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.  
• If you do not press the button, after a pause the printer will  
automatically pick the print media.

Printing to the output tray (Face down)  
Selecting an output location  
The output tray collects paper face down, in the order in which the sheets  
were printed. The tray should be used for most print jobs.  
The printer has two output locations; the rear cover (face up) and the  
output tray (face down).  
Printing to the rear cover (Face up)

Cleaning the printer  
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can  
accumulate inside the printer. This buildup can cause print quality  
problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Your printer has a cleaning  
mode that can correct and prevent these types of problems.  
Caution  
• Cleaning the cabinet of the printer with cleaning materials  
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvents, or other strong  
substances can discolor or crack the cabinet.  
Cleaning the outside of the printer  
Clean the cabinet of the printer 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 printer.  
Cleaning the inside of the printer  
There are two methods to clean the inside of the printer:  
• Clean the inside manually.  
• Print a cleaning sheet, which can be done from the control panel.  
Cleaning the inside of the printer manually

clear the problem by printing a cleaning sheet, provided by your printer.  
You can print:  
To save toner, press Toner Save on the control panel. The button  
backlight turns on.  
Using this feature extends the life of the toner cartridge and reduce your  
cost per page, but it also reduces print quality.

To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following guidelines in  
mind:  
- Invalid Toner, NonGenuine Toner, Replace Toner,  
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until ready for  
use.  
Toner Exhausted  
• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The printer warranty does not cover  
damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.  
• Store toner cartridge in the same environment as the printer.  
To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for  
more than a few minute.  
Expected cartridge yield  
The toner cartridge yield depends on the amount of toner that print jobs  
require. 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, media type, and  
media size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the  
cartridge more often.  
Your machine sets the toner remains in 3 levels, Toner Low, Replace  
Toner, and Toner Exhausted. The machine is designed to detect the  
toner remains and stop printing when the level is Toner Exhausted, for  
preventing your machine from severe contamination or malfunction.  
Refer to page 7.1 for supplies information.

Redistributing toner cartridge  
Note  
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:  
• White streaks and light printing occur.

• 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.  
4
Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the  
cartridge into the opening in the printer.  
If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish 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.  
Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves  
within the printer will guide the cartridge into the correct position  
until it locks into place completely.

Note  
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.  
This chapter includes:  
When a paper jam occurs, the Status LED lights red. Open and close  
the top cover. The jammed paper automatically exits the printer.

If white vertical streaks appear on the page:  
• The surface of the LSU part inside the printer  
may be dirty. Clean the LSU. See page 8.2.  
• The toner supply is low. You may be able to  
temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. See  
page 8.4. If this does not improve print quality,  
install a new toner cartridge.  
• The paper may not meet paper specifications  
(for example, the paper is too moist or too  
rough). See page 5.3.  
• If the entire page is light, the print resolution  
setting is too light or toner save mode is on.  
Adjust the print resolution and toner save  
mode in the printer properties. See the  
Software section.  
• If the entire page is faded with "Toner Low  
Replace Toner" message on LCD,  
set "CLR Empty Msg." to "On" referring to  
page 8.6. In this case, you can keep printing  
but the quality cannot be guaranteed, and the

• A combination of faded or smeared defects  
may indicate that the printer needs cleaning.  
See page 8.1.  
Gray  
background  
If the amount of background shading becomes  
unacceptable, the procedures below may fix the  
problem.  
• Change to lighter weight pages. See page 5.3.  
• Check the printer’s environment; very dry (low  
humidity) or high humidity (higher than 80%  
RH) conditions can increase the amount of  
background shading.  
• Remove the old toner cartridge and install a  
new one. See page 8.5.  
Toner smear  
• Clean the inside of the printer. See page 8.1.  
• Check the type and quality. See page 5.2.

• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.  
• Check the 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  
try rotating the paper 180° in the tray.  
• Try printing to the rear cover (face-up).  
• The toner cartridge may be damaged. If a  
repetitive mark occurs on the page, print a  
cleaning sheet several times to clean the  
cartridge; see page 8.3. After the printout, if  
you still have the same problems, install a new  
toner cartridge. See page 8.5.  
• Parts of the printer may have toner on them. If  
the defects occur on the back of the page, the  
problem will likely correct itself after a few  
more pages.  
• The fusing assembly may be damaged.  
Contact a service representative.  
Wrinkles or

• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly.  
• Check the paper type and quality. See page

Background  
scatter  
Background scatter results from bits of toner  
distributed on the printed page.  
• 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.

Precautions when installing accessories  
10 Installing accessories  
Your printer is a full-featured laser printer that has been optimized to  
meet the majority of your printing needs. Recognizing that each user  
may have different requirements, however, Samsung makes several  
accessories available to enhance the printer’s capabilities.  
Disconnect the power cord:  
Never remove the control board cover while the printer is plugged in.  
To avoid the possibility of an electrical shock, always disconnect the  
power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external  
accessories.  
This chapter includes:  
Discharge static electricity:  
The control board and internal accessories (Wireless network interface  
card, DIMM, and hard disk) are sensitive to static electricity. Before  
installing or removing internal accessories, discharge static electricity  
from your body by touching something metal, such as the metal back  
plate on any device plugged into a grounded power source. If you walk  
round before finishing installation, discharge any static electricity once  
again.  
Installing a memory DIMM  
Your printer has a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) slot. Use this  
DIMM slot to install additional memory.  
Your printer has 64 MB of memory which can be expanded to 512 MB.  
For information about ordering optional DIMMs, see page 7.1.

Advanced Options  
Graphics Tab  
Use the following Graphic options to adjust the print quality for  
your specific printing needs. See “Printing a Document” on  
page 12 for more information on accessing printer properties.  
You can set advanced settings by clicking the Advanced  
Options button.  
TrueType Options: This option determines what the driver  
tells the printer about how to image the text in your document.  
Select the appropriate setting according to the status of your  
document. This option may be available only in  
Windows 9x/Me, depending on your particular printer  
model.  
Click the Graphic tab to display the properties shown below..  
-
Download as Outline: When this option is selected, the  
driver will download any TrueType fonts that are used in your  
document not already stored (resident) on your printer. If,  
after printing a document, you find that the fonts did not print  
correctly, choose Download as bit image and resubmit your  
print job. The Download as bit image setting is often useful  
when printing Adobe. This feature is available only  
when you use the PCL printer driver.  
-
-
Download as Bitmap: When this option is selected, the  
driver will download the font data as bitmap images.  
Documents with complicated fonts, such as Korean or  
Chinese, or various other fonts, will print faster in this setting.  
Print as Graphics: When this option is selected, the driver  
will download any fonts as graphics. When printing documents  
with high graphic content and relatively few TrueType fonts,  
printing performance (speed) may be enhanced in this  
setting.  
Print All Text To Black: When the Print All Text To Black  
option is checked, all text in your document prints solid black,  
regardless of the color it appears on the screen.  
Resolution  
The Resolution options you can select may vary  
depending on your printer model. The higher the setting,  
the sharper the clarity of printed characters and graphics. The  
higher setting also may increase the time it takes to print a  
document.  
Image Mode  
The available options are Normal and Text Enhance. Some  
printers do not support this feature.  
Printer Setting: If you select this option, this feature is  
determined by the setting you’ve made on the control panel of  
the printer.  
Normal: This setting is for normal documents.  
Text Enhancement: Image Mode allows the user to enhance  
printouts.  
Toner Save Mode  
Selecting this option extends the life of your toner cartridge and  
reduces your cost per page without a significant reduction in print  
quality. Some printers do not support this feature.  
Printer Setting: If you select this option, this feature is  
determined by the setting you’ve made on the control panel of  
the printer.  
On: Select this option to allow the printer to use less toner on  
each page.  
Off: If you don’t need to save toner when printing a document,  
select this option.

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.  
Extras Tab  
You can select output options for your document. See “Printing  
a Document” on page 12 for more information about accessing  
the printer properties.  
Click the Extras tab to access the following feature:  
Save as Form for Overlay: Select Save as Form for Overlay to  
save the document as a form file (C:\FORMOVER\*.FOM). Once  
this option is selected, the printer driver requires the file name  
and the destination path each time you print. If you want to  
preset the file name and specify the path, click on the button in  
the Output to area, and type the file name and specify the path.  
This feature is available only when you use the PCL  
printer driver.  
Job Setting

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.
