CLEANING YOUR MACHINE
To maintain print and scan quality, follow the cleaning procedures below 
each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print and scan quality 
problems occur.
Cleaning the outsideClean the cabinet of the machine with  a soft lint-free cloth. You can dampen 
the cloth slightly with water, but be ca reful not to let any water drip onto or 
into the machine.
Cleaning the insideDuring the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate 
inside the machine. This buildup can c ause print quality problems, such as 
toner specks or smearing. Cleaning th e inside of the machine clears or 
reduces these problems.
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to 
cool down.
2. Using the handle, completely open the front cover.
If you have moved the ma chine, it is strongly recommended to operate 
this menu manually.
For CLX-6200FX, CLX-6210FX, CL X-6240FX users, before clearing 
the memory, make sure that all fax jobs have been completed, or you 
will lose those jobs.
Some menus may not appear in the display depending on options or 
models. If so, it is not applicable to your machine.

• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials 
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong 
substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.
• If your machine or its surrounding is contaminated with toner, we  recommend you to use cloth or tissue dampened with water to 
clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blown into the air may 
be harmful. 
• Do not touch the green surface, t he OPC drum or the front of the 
toner cartridge, with your hands or any other material. Use the 
handle on each cartridge in order to avoid touching this area.
• Be careful not to scratch the surf ace of the paper transfer belt.
• If you leave the front cover open for more than a few minutes, the  OPC drum can be exposed to light . This will cause damage to the 
OPC drum. Close the front cover should the installation need to 
be halted for any reason.

cover.
8. Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on
When you open the front cover, be careful not to touch the 
underneath of the control panel (the  lower part of the fuser unit). The 
temperature of the fuser unit might  be high and could damage your 
skin.
When you open the front cover and work inside the machine, it is 
highly recommend that you remove the paper transfer belt first. 
Because the work you do could cont aminate the paper transfer belt.
If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash 
it in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
If the front cover is not comple tely closed, the machine will not 
operate.

Cleaning the scan unit
Keeping the scan unit clean helps ensure the best possible copies. We 
suggest that you clean the scan unit at  the start of each day and during the 
day, as needed.

MAINTAINING TH E CARTRIDGE
Toner cartridge storage
Toner cartridges contain components that are sensitive to light, 
temperature, and humidity. Samsung suggests users follow the 
recommendations to ensure the optimum  performance, highest quality, and 
longest life from your new Samsung toner cartridge.
Store this cartridge in the same environment as the printer it will be used in; 
this should be in controlled office  temperature and humidity conditions. The 
toner cartridge should remain in its original, unopened package until 
installation – If original packaging is not available, cover the top opening of 
the cartridge with paper and  store in a dark cabinet. 
Opening the cartridge package prior to  use dramatically shortens its useful 
shelf and operating life. Do not store on  the floor. If the toner cartridge is 
removed from the printer, always store the cartridge:
• Inside the protective bag from the original package 
• Correct side up in a horizontal position (not standing on end)
• Do not store consumables in;  - Temperature greater than 40°C (104°F). 
- Humidity range less than 20% and not greater than 80%.
- An environment with extreme chang es in humidity or temperature.
- Direct sunlight or room light.
- Dusty places.
- A car for a long period of time.
- An environment where corrosive gases are present.
- An environment with salty air.
Handling instructions
• Do not touch the surface of the photos ensitive drum in the cartridge. 
• Do not expose the cartridge to unn ecessary vibrations or shock.
• Never manually rotate the drum, especia lly in the reverse direction; this 
can cause internal damage and toner spillage.
Use of Non-Samsung and re filled toner cartridge
Samsung Electronics does not reco mmend or approve the use of non-
Samsung brand toner cartridges in y our printer including generic, store 
brand, refilled, or remanufactured toner cartridges.
Estimated cartridge life 
Estimated cartridge life (the life of th e toner cartridge yield) depends on the 
amount of toner that print jobs requ ire. The actual print-out number may 
vary depending on the print density of  the pages you print on, operating 
environment, printing interval, media  type, and/or media size. For example, 
if you print a lot of graphics, the cons umption of the toner is high and you 
may need to change the cartridge more often.

machine caused by the use of a  refilled, remanufactured, or non-

66 _Maintenance
Redistributing toner
When a toner is low, faded or light  areas may appear. It is possible that 
colored images may be printed with incorrect colors due to flawed mixing of 
toner colors when one of the colored toner cartridges is low on toner. You 
can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the toner.
• The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on  the display.
• The SmartPanel program window ap pears on the computer telling you 
which color cartridge is low on toner.
1. Using the handle, completely open the front cover. 2.
Grasp the handles on the toner  cartridge and pull to remove the 
cartridge from the machine.
3. Holding both handles on the toner cartri dge, thoroughly rock it from side 
to side to evenly distribute the toner. 
• Do not touch the green surface, th e OPC drum or the front of the 
toner cartridge, with your hands  or any other material. Use the 
handle on each cartridge in order to avoid touching this area.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the paper transfer belt.
• If you leave the front cover open for more than a few minutes, the  OPC drum can be exposed to light. This will cause damage to the 
OPC drum. Close the front cover should the installation need to 
be halted for any reason.
