GUIDELINES

 

 

Preprinted

• Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink

paper

that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous

 

emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing

 

temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s

 

specification to view the fusing temperature, see

 

"General specifications" on page 86.

 

• 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.

 

 

Using photographic paper or coated paper may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by Samsung’s warranty or service agreements.

CHANGING THE SIZE OF THE PAPER IN THE PAPER TRAY

To load longer sizes of paper, such as Legal-sized paper, you need to adjust the paper guides to extend the paper tray.

To change the tray 1 size to other size, you must adjust the paper length guide properly.

1.Pull the tray 1 out of the machine. Open the paper cover and remove paper from the tray 1 if necessary.

2.Pressing and unlatching the guide lock in the top of the tray, pull the tray out manually.

3.Load paper into the tray.

4.Slide the paper length guide until it lightly touches the end of the paper stack. Squeeze the paper width guide and slide it to the edge of the paper stack without causing it to bend.

For paper smaller than Letter-sized, return the paper guides to their original positions and adjust the paper length guide and paper width guide.

If the paper that you need to print is shorter than length 222 mm (8.74 inches), press and unlatch the guide lock in the tray, push the tray in manually. Adjust the paper length guide and paper width guide.

• Do not push the paper width guides far enough to cause the materials to warp.

If you do not adjust the paper width guides, it may cause paper jams.

5.Close the paper cover.
