32 _Loading originals and print media loading originals and print media This chapter introduces you ho w to load originals and print media into your machine. This chapter includes: • Loading originals • Selecting print media • Changing the size of the paper in the paper tray • Loading paper • Adjusting the output support • Setting the paper size and type LOADING ORIGINALS You can use the scanner glass or DADF (or ADF) to load an original for copying, scanning, and sending a fax. On the scanner glass Make sure that no originals are in the DADF (or ADF). If an original is detected in the DADF (or ADF), the machine gives it priority over the original on the scanner glass. To get the best scan quality, especially for colored or gray-scaled images, use the scanner glass. 1. Lift and open the scanner lid. 2. Place the original face down on the scanner glass and align it with the registration guide at the top left corner of the glass. 3. Close the scanner lid. In the DADF (or ADF) Using the DADF (or ADF), you can load up to 50 sheets of paper (75 g/m2, 20 lb bond) for one job. When you use the DADF (or ADF): • In the ADF: Do not load paper smaller than 142 x 148 mm (5.6 x 5.8 inches) or larger than 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches). • In the DADF: Do not load paper smaller than 148 x 148 mm (5.8 x 5.8 inches) or larger than 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches). • Do not attempt to load the following types of paper: - carbon-paper or carbon-backed paper - coated paper - onion skin or thin paper - wrinkled or creased paper - curled or rolled paper - torn paper • Remove all staples and paper clips before loading. • Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely dry before loading. • Do not load originals that include di fferent sizes or weights of paper. CLX-6200ND, CLX-6210FX, CLX-6240FX has the DADF function which can let you scan on both sides of the original media at once. See Scan on both sides of paper on page 49. • Leaving the scanner lid open while copying may affect copy quality and toner consumption. • Dust on the scanner glass may c ause black spots on the printout. Always keep it clean. • If you are copying a page from a boo k or magazine, lift the scanner lid until its hinges are caught by the stopper and then close the lid. If the book or magazine is thicker than 30 mm, start copying with the lid open. Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals
Loading originals and print media_33 • Do not load booklets, pamphlets, tr ansparencies, or documents having other unusual characteristics. 1. Flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before loading originals. 2. Load the original face up into the DADF (or ADF). Make sure that the bottom of the original stack matches the paper size marked on the document input tray. 3. Adjust the document width guides to the paper size.SELECTING 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 machine. Print medi a that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following problems: • Poor print quality • Increased paper jams • Premature wear on the machine. Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are important factors that affect the machine’s performance and the output quality. When you choose print materials, 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. Dust on the DADF (or ADF) glass may cause black lines on the printout. Always keep it clean. • Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and still not produce satisfactory resu lts. 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 specif ied in this user’s guide. Using print media that does not me et these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by Samsung’s warranty or service agreements.

When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors: - Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m 2 or jamming may occur. - Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm 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 machine during operation. • Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well creased folds. • 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. 1Acceptable 2Unacceptable • Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 100. 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 from the edges of the envelope. • Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet. Labels • To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser machines. - When selecting labels, consider the following factors: - Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at your machine’s fusing temperature. Check your machine’s spec ification to view the fusing temperature, see page 99. - Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. - Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm of cu rl 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 machine components. • Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine. • Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged. Card stock or custom-sized materials • Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm wide or 356 mm long. • In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm away from the edges of the material. Preprinted paper • Letterhead must be printe d with heat-resistant ink 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 page 99. • 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. MEDIA TYPEGUIDELINES Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals
