Loading originals and print media_28 loading originals and print media This chapter introduces you how 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 • Printing on special print materials • Adjusting the output support • Setting the paper size and type LOADING ORIGINALS You can use the scanner glass 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 ADF. If an original is detected in the 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 t he scanner glass and align it with the registration guide at the top left corner of the glass. 3. Close the scanner lid. In the ADF Using the ADF, you can load up to 50 sheets of paper (75 g/m2, 20 lb bond) for one job. When you use 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). • 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. • 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. • 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_29 2.Load the original face up into the 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 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.
