Paper Specifications
Overview
Your printer accepts a variety of print materials, such as cut-
sheet paper (including up to 100% recycled fiber content 
paper), envelopes, labels, and custom-size paper. Properties, 
such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are 
important factors affecting the printer’s performance and the 
output quality. Paper that does not meet the guidelines outlined 
in this User’s Guide can cause the following problems:
• Poor print quality
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear on the printer.
NOTES: 
• Some paper may meet all of the guidelines in this guide 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 paper, ensure that the 
paper meets the requirements specified in this User’s Guide. 
CAUTION: Using paper that does not meet these specifications 
may cause problems, requiring repairs. These repairs are not 
covered by the Samsung warranty or service agreements.

Guidelines for Using Paper
For the best result, use conventional 75g/m2 (20lb) paper. 
Ensure that the paper is of good quality, and free of cuts, nicks, 
tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled 
or bent edges.
If you are unsure of what type of paper you are loading, such 
as bond or recycled paper, check the label on the package.
The following problems may cause print quality deviations, 
jamming or even damage to the printer.
NOTES: 
• Do not use letterhead paper printed with low-temperature  inks, such as those used in some types of thermography.
• Do not use raised or embossed letterhead.
• The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the  paper. Ensure that any colored paper or preprinted forms 
use inks that are compatible with this fusing temperature 
(180°C or 356°F for 0.1 second).

Printer and Paper Storage 
Environment
Paper storage environmental conditions directly affect the feed 
operation.
Ideally, the printer 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.
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 im portant 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 papers 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 days operation to 
prevent unwanted moisture changes.

Envelopes
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 factors:
• Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90g/m
2 (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 Seams
Double 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.
MinimumMaximum
Multi-purpose Tray 3.5 x 5.5in. (90 x 
140mm) 8.5 x 14in. (216 x 
356mm)
Correct
Incorrect
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 printer. The extra flaps and strips 
might cause wrinkling, creasing, or even jams and may even 
damage the fuser.
Envelope Margins
The 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 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. See “Printing on Envelopes” on page 4.4.
Labels
CAUTION: 
• 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
• 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.
