If a paper jam occurs, follow the steps outlined in “Clearing Paper Jams” on page 7.4. • Follow the procedures on page 4.2. Ensure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly.• Do not overload the paper tray.• Do not remove the paper from the tray while printing.• Flex, fan, and straighten the paper before loading. • Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.• Do not mix paper types in a tray.• Use only recommended print materials. See “Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.• Ensure that the recommended print side of print materials is facing up in the paper tray and facing down in the Multi-purpose Tray.
Solving Problems7.12Solving Print Quality ProblemsDirt inside of the printer or improper paper loading may reduce print quality. See the table below to troubleshoot problems. Problem SolutionLight or faded printIf a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page:• The toner supply is low. You may be able to temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. See “Redistributing Toner” on page 6.2. 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 “Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.• A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the printer needs cleaning. See page 6.8.Toner specksThe paper may not meet specifications (for example, the paper is too moist or too rough). See “Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.DropoutsIf generally rounded, faded areas occur randomly on the page:• A single sheet of paper may be defective. Try reprinting the job.• The moisture content of the paper is uneven or the paper has moist spots on its surface. Try a different brand of paper. See “Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.• The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing process can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper.• The toner cartridge may be defective. See “Vertical repetitive defects” on the next column.• If these steps do not correct the problems, contact a service representative.Vertical linesIf black vertical streaks appear on the page:• A toner cartridge has probably been scratched. Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one. See page 6.4. If white vertical lines appear on the page:• Clean the inside of the printer. See “Cleaning the Inside of the Printer” on page 6.8. If you still have the same problems, replace the toner cartridge with a new one. See page 6.4.

See “Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.• 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 one of the old toner cartridges and install a new one.Toner smear• Clean the inside of the printer. See “Cleaning the Inside of the Printer” on page 6.8• Check the paper type and quality. See “Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.• Remove the paper transfer belt and install a new one. See “Replacing the Paper Transfer Belt” on page 6.5.Vertical repetitive defectsIf marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even intervals:• Clean the inside of the printer. See “Cleaning the Inside of the Printer” on page 6.8. After cleaning the inside of the printer, if you still have the same problems, install a new toner cartridge of the problem color. See “Replacing Toner Cartridges” on page 6.4.• 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.Background scatterBackground scatter results from bits of toner distributed on the printed page. • 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.Problem SolutionAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcAaBbCcA

Solving Problems7.16Common Windows ProblemsNOTE: Refer to the Microsoft Windows 98SE/Me/NT 4.0/2000/2003/XP User’s Guide that came with your PC for further information on Windows error messages.Common Macintosh ProblemsProblem Possible Cause and Solution“File in Use” message appears during installation.Exit all software applications. Remove all software from the StartUp Group, then restart Windows. Reinstall the printer driver.“Error Writing to LPTx” message appears. • Ensure that all cables are connected correctly and the printer is on.• If bi-directional communication is not turned on in the driver, it will also cause this message.“General Protection Fault”, “Exception OE”, “Spool32”, or “Illegal Operation” messages appear.Close all other applications, reboot Windows and try printing again.“Fail To Print”, “A printer timeout error occurred.” messages appear.These messages may appear during printing. Just keep waiting until the printer finishes printing. If the message appears in standby mode or after printing has been completed, check the connection and/or whether an error has occurred.Problem Possible Cause and SolutionThe printer does not print a document from Acrobat Reader.You should change the Print Method option to Print as Image when you print from Acrobat Reader.The document has printed, but the print job has not disappeared from the spooler in Mac OS 10.3.2.Update your Mac OS to OS 10.3.3 or higher.Common Linux ProblemsProblem Possible Cause and SolutionI can’t change settings in the configuration tool.You need to have administrator privileges to be able to change global settings.I am using the KDE desktop but the configuration tool and LLPR won’t start.You may not have the GTK libraries installed. These usually come with most Linux distributions, but you may have to install them manually. Refer to your distribution’s installation manual for more details about installing additional packages.I just installed this package but can’t find entries in the KDE/Gnome menus.Some versions of the KDE or GNOME desktop environments may require that you restart your session for the changes to take effect.I get a “Some options are not selected” error message while editing the printer settings.Some printers have conflicting settings, meaning that some settings for two options can’t be selected at the same time. When you change a setting and the Printer Package detects such a conflict, the conflicting option is changed to a “No Choice” value. You have to choose an option that does not conflict before being able to submit the changes.I can’t make a printer the system default. In some conditions, it may not be possible to change the default queue. This happens with some variants of LPRng, especially on recent RedHat systems that use the “printconf” database of queues.When using printconf, the /etc./printcap file is automatically refreshed from the database of printers managed by the system (usually through the “printtool” command), and the queues in /etc./printcap.local are appended to the resulting file. The default queue in LPRng is defined as the first queue in /etc./printcap, and therefore it is not possible for the Linux Printer Package to change the default when some queues have otherwise been defined using printtool.LPD systems identify the default queue as the one named “lp”. Thus, if there is already a queue by this name, and if it doesn’t have an alias, then you won’t be able to change the default. To work around this, you can either delete the queue or rename it by manually editing the /etc./printcap file.
Solving Problems7.17The N-up setting does not work correctly for some of my documents.The N-up feature is achieved through post-processing of the PostScript data that is sent to the printing system. However, such post-processing can only be adequately achieved if the PostScript data conforms to the Adobe Document Structing Conventions. Problems may arise when using N-up and other features that rely on post-processing if the document being printed isn’t compliant.I am using BSD lpr (Slackware, Debian, older distributions) and some options chosen in LLPR don’t seem to take effect.Legacy BSD lpr systems have a hard limitation on the length of the option string that can be passed to the printing system. As such, if you selected a number of different options, you may have exceeded the length of the options and some of your choices won’t be passed to the programs responsible for implementing them.Try to select fewer options that deviate from the defaults, to save on memory usage.I am trying to print a document in Landscape mode, but it prints rotated and cropped.Most Unix applications that offer a Landscape orientation option in their printing options will generate correct PostScript code that should be printed as is. In that case, you need to make sure that you leave the LLPR option set to its default Portrait setting, to avoid unwanted rotations of the page that would result in cropped output.Some pages come out all white (nothing is printed), and I am using CUPS.If the data being sent is in Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) format, some earlier versions of CUPS (1.1.10 and before) have a bug preventing them from being processed correctly. When going through LLPR to print, the Printer Package will work around this issue by converting the data to regular PostScript. However, if your application bypasses LLPR and feeds EPS data to CUPS, the document may not print correctly.I can’t print to an SMB (Windows) printer. To be able to configure and use SMB-shared printers (such as printers shared on a Windows printer), you need to have a correct installation of the SAMBA package that enables that feature. The “smbclient” command should be available and usable on your system.My application seems to be frozen while LLPR is running.Most Unix applications will expect a command like the regular “lpr” command to be non-interactive and thus return immediately. Since LLPR is waiting for user input before passing the job on to the print spooler, very often the application will wait for the process to return, and thus will appear to be frozen (its windows won’t refresh). This is normal and the application should resume functioning correctly after the user exits LLPR.Problem Possible Cause and SolutionHow do I specify the IP address of my SMB server?It can be specified in the “Add Printer” dialogue of the configuration tool, if you don’t use the CUPS printing system. Unfortunately, CUPS currently doesn’t allow you to specify the IP address of SMB printers, so you will have to be able to browse the resource with SAMBA in order to be able to print.Some documents come out as white pages when printing.Some versions of CUPS, especially those shipped with Mandrake Linux before the 8.1 release, have some known bugs when processing PostScript output from some applications. Try upgrading to the latest version of CUPS (at least 1.1.14). Some RPM packages for the most popular distributions are provided as a convenience with this Linux Printing Package.I have CUPS and some options (such as N-up) seem to be always enabled even though I don’t choose them in LLPR.There may be some local options defined in your ~/.lpoptions file, which are manipulated by the lpoptions command. These options are always used if not overridden by LLPR settings. To get rid of all options for a printer, run the following command, replacing “printer” with the name of the queue: lpoptions -x printerI configured a printer to print to a file, but I get “Permission denied” errors.Most printing systems will not run as the super-user but as a special user (usually “lp”). Therefore, make sure that the file you have chosen to print to is accessible to the user owning the spooler daemon.On my PCL (or GDI) printer, I sometimes get error messages printing instead of my document.Unfortunately, some Unix applications may generate non-compliant PostScript output that may not be supported by Ghostscript, or even the printer itself in PostScript mode. You can try to capture the output to a file and view the results with Ghostscript (gv or ghostview will allow you to do so interactively) and see if you get error messages. However, since the application is probably at fault, contact your software vendor to inform them of the issue.Some color images come out all black. This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU Ghostscript version 7.05) when the base color space of the document is indexed color space and it is converted through CIE color space. Because Postscript uses CIE color space for Color Matching System, you should upgrade Ghostscript on your system to at least GNU Ghostscript version 7.06 or later. You can find recent Ghostscript versions at www.ghostscript.com.Problem Possible Cause and Solution
Using Your Printer on a Network (CLP-600N only)8.18Using Your Printer on a Network (CLP-600N only)If you work in a networked environment, the printer can be shared by other users on the network.This chapter includes:• About Sharing the Printer on a Network• Setting Up a Network-Connected PrinterNOTE: If you are a CLP-600 user, you can only connect your printer to a network locally, for use via a single computer.About Sharing the Printer on a NetworkIf you work in a networked environment, you can connect your printer to the network.Locally-Shared PrinterYou can connect the printer directly to a selected computer, which is called the “host computer” on the network. The printer can then be shared by other users on the network through a Windows 98SE/Me/XP/NT 4.0/2000/2003 network printer connection.For details about sharing the printer locally, see the Software User’s Guide.Wired Network-connected Printer The CLP-600N printer has a built-in network interface. For more information about connecting your printer to a network, see 2.7.Wireless Network-connected PrinterTo use a CLP-600N printer in a wireless network environment, you need to install an optional wired/wireless network interface card in your printer.Contact your Samsung dealer or the retailer where you bought your printer. We strongly recommend that the card be installed by a trained service professional.Printing Across a NetworkWhether the printer is locally connected or network-connected, you need to install the CLP-600 series printer software on each computer that prints documents using the printer.Setting Up a Network-Connected PrinterYou have to set up the network protocols on the printer to use it as your network printer. Setting protocols can be accomplished by using the supplied network program. Please refer to the Network User’s Guide. You can configure the basic network parameters through the printer’s control panel. Use the printer control panel to do the following:• Enable or disable network protocols (IPX/SPX)•Configure TCP/IP• Configure IPX frame types Configuring Network Parameters on the Control PanelSupported Operating SystemsNOTE: The operating systems supported by the network card may be different than the operating systems supported by the printer.

After you have entered the last letter of the name, press the Enter button ( ) once again to save the ID. The way to enter the key number for the encryption key is the same as to enter letters.•Operation Mode: “Ad-Hoc” mode allows the wireless devices to communicate directly with each other. This is the default operating mode for the print server. If your network uses an Access Point, you must reconfigure the operation mode to “InfraStructure”. “InfraStructure” mode allows both wireless and cabled computers to send files to the printer through an Access Point. •Frequency Mode: “IEEE802.11a”, “IEEE802.11g”, or “IEEE802.11a, g”.The Samsung print server can be configured to operate in the following frequency modes:- IEEE802.11a mode: The radio uses IEEE802.11a standard(5GHz).- IEEE802.11g mode: The radio uses the frequency range defined in IEEE802.11g standard(2.4GHz). This mode is compatible with IEEE802.11b standard.- IEEE802.11a, g mode: The radio uses the frequency range defined in IEEE802.11a and IEEE802.11g standard(5GHz and 2.4GHz).The default setting is “IEEE802.11a, g”.•Channel: This option is available in the “Ad-Hoc” mode only. In most cases, you will not need to change this setting. The print server will scan all available channels for the specified network and will adapt its channel to the one detected.
Using Your Printer on a Network (CLP-600N only)8.5•Security Mode: “None”, “Static WEP”, or “WPA” The Samsung print server provides three kinds of Security Modes (such as “None” Static WEP, and WPA) for easy setting of wireless network security. “None” security mode is used when the validation of wireless device's identity and data encryption are not required for your network. Static WEP uses WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) algorithm suggested by IEEE802.11 standard for security. A WEP algorithm provides data encryption and decryption for data communication. Static WEP security requires WEP key for data encryption, decryption, and authentication. WPA provides more security and better key management than Static WEP by using IEEE802.1X EAP authentication and dynamic encryption (such as dynamic WEP, TKIP, AES). WPA cannot be configured on printer's control panel. In order to choose WPA as security mode, you must use SWAS (Syncthru Web Admin Service). For more information about WPA settings, see the Network User's Guide. The default setting is “None”.•Authentication: “Open System” or “Shared Key”. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. If required by your network, the proper authentication method must be configured on the print server. The default setting is “Open System”.•WEP Encryption: “64-bit WEP” or “128-bit WEP”. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. If your network uses Static WEP encryption keys, you must configure the encryption keys. You can configure up to four keys. The active key must match the value and active key position (for example, Key 1) configured on other wireless devices. The default setting is “64-bit WEP”.•Using Key: Select the key to use in your network. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. The default setting is “Key 1”.•Key Type: Select the key type of your network. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. The default setting is “Hexadecimal”.•Key1, Key2, Key3, Key4: Enter the key number for “Encryption”. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. The default setting is 0 for all keys. The numbers you can enter are as follows:NOTE: Your changes for wireless parameters will be applied after resetting the print server.

Remember that paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses moisture rapidly.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.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.The paper storage environment should be properly maintained to ensure optimum printer 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 should be stored at or near room temperature.• The air should not be too dry or too humid.• The best way to store an opened ream of paper is to rewrap it tightly in its moisture-proof wrapping. If the printer environment is subject to extremes, unwrap only the amount of paper to be used during the day's operation to prevent unwanted moisture changes.
Specifications10.4EnvelopesEnvelope 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 factors:• Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90g/m2 (24lb) or jamming may occur.• Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6mm (0.25in.) curl, and should not contain air.• 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 printer.• Size: You should only use envelopes within the following size ranges.NOTES:• Use only the Multi-purpose Tray to print envelopes.• You may experience some paper jams when using any media with a length less than 140mm(5.5in.). 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 “Printer and Paper Storage Environment” on page 10.3.Envelopes with Double Side SeamsDouble side-seam 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.Minimum MaximumMulti-purpose Tray 3.5 x 5.5in. (90 x 140mm) 8.5 x 14in. (216 x 356mm)CorrectIncorrectEnvelopes with Adhesive Strips or FlapsEnvelopes 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 printer. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or even jams and may even damage the fuser.Envelope MarginsThe following gives typical address margins for a commercial #10 or DL envelope.NOTES:• For best print quality, position margins no closer than 15mm (0.6in.) from the edges of the envelope.• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.Envelope StorageProper 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. See “Printing on Envelopes” on page 4.4.LabelsCAUTION: • To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels recommended for laser printers.• To prevent serious jams, always use the Multi-purpose Tray to print labels and always use the rear output tray.• Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once and never print on a partial sheet of labels.When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:• Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 180°C (356°F), the printer’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.• Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 5in. (13mm) of curl in any direction.• Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.See “Printing on Labels” on page 4.5.Type of Address Minimum MaximumReturn address 0.6in.
