Paper Type and Size
Satisfactory print and receive quality can be obtained with many types of
plain paper. Since the quality of plain paper varies widely, test the print
quality before buying large quantities of paper. Your machine uses a
variety of papers including:
• Xerographic paper
• Bond paper
• Dual-purpose paper
Because all papers vary in physical characteristics, you can receive
mixed results from different packages of paper even through the
packages contain the same paper. If you encounter undesirable results,
try the other side of the paper, a different type, or another package of
the same kind of paper.
DO NOT use the following types of paper with your machine:
• Continuous form feed paper
• Synthetic paper
• Thermal paper
• Multi-sheet forms and documents
• Chemically treated paper
• Papers with raised, embossed lettering
To load paper with a preferred print side:
• If you are using xerographic paper, load the paper with the preferred
print side facing down.
• If you are using letterhead or bond paper, load the paper with the
preferred side facing up.
The following papers can be used in your machine for fax:
• Letter : 216 x 279 mm (8.5 x 11.0 in.) - 60 g/m2 ~ 90 g/m2 (16 ~ 24 lb)
• A4 : 210 x 297 mm (8.3 x 11.7 in.) - 60 g/m2 ~ 90 g/m2 (16 ~ 24 lb)

data in the document to fit into your recording paper size.
Original
Received data
Turn this feature on to reduce an incoming page that may need to be
divided into two pages with only a few lines on the second page. If the
fax machine cannot reduce the data to fit onto one page with this
feature enabled, the data will be divided and printed in actual size on
two or more sheets if necessary.
Select ON to enable. Note that this feature does not apply to the copy
mode.
Select OFF to turn this feature off. The overflow data will be printed
out on a second page.
• DISCARD SIZE — When receiving or copying a document as long as
or longer than the paper installed in your machine, you can set the
machine to discard any excess image at the bottom of the page to fit
onto the recording paper size.
Enter the desired discard size from 0 through 30 mm using the
number keypad.
If the received page is outside the margin set, it will be printed on two
sheets of paper at the actual size.
If the data is within the margin, and the Auto Reduction feature is on,
it will be reduced to fit onto the appropriate size paper (Discard does
not take place). If the Auto Reduction feature is turned OFF or fails,
the data within the margin will be discarded.
• RINGS TO ANSWER —You can select the number of times your
machine rings before answering an incoming call. If you are using your
machine as both a telephone and a fax machine, we suggest you set

• DRPD MODE — “Distinctive Ring” is a telephone company service
which enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several
different telephone numbers. The particular number someone uses to
call you on is identified by different ringing patterns, which consist of
various combinations of long and short ringing sounds. This feature is
often used by answering services who answer telephones for many
different clients and need to know which number someone is calling in
on to properly answer the phone.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature, your fax machine
can “learn” the ring pattern you designate to be answered by the FAX
machine. Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be
recognised and answered as a FAX call, and all other ringing patterns
will be forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine
plugged into the EXT. jack.
You can easily suspend or change Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection at
any time.
Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option, Distinctive
Ring service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone
company. To setup Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you will need
another telephone line at your location, or someone available to dial
your FAX number from outside.
Select ON to turn this feature on.
Select OFF to turn this feature off.
Select SET to setup or change the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection.
The LCD displays ‘WAITING RING’. Call your fax number from another
telephone. It is not necessary to place the call from a fax machine.
When your machine begins to ring, do not answer the call. The
machine requires several rings to learn the pattern.
When the machine completes learning, the LCD displays ‘END DRPD
SETUP’.
With the DRPD feature active, ‘DRPD’ appears in the display and the
previously set reception mode is ignored. If you turn off DRPD, the
machine returns to any previously set reception mode.
Notes:
• DRPD must be set up again if you re-assign your fax number, or
connect the machine to another telephone line.
• After DRPD has been set up, call your fax number again to verify that
the machine answers with a fax tone. Then have a call placed to a
different number assigned to that same line to be sure the call is
forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine plugged
into the EXT. jack.

Setting Document Resolution and Contrast
We recommend sending documents printed using a typewriter, felt tip pen,
black ink, or laserwriter. The paper should be white or very light, and of
normal weight – not cardboard. Blue lines on a ruled pad do not fax well.
To send normal documents, there is no need to adjust the resolution and
the contrast.
To send documents with unusual contrast characteristics, including
photographs, adjust the resolution and contrast.
Resolution
To increase sharpness and clarity, press the Resolution button repeatedly
after loading a document until you find the desired mode. You can choose
between STANDARD, FINE, or SUPER FINE mode.
STANDARD (200X 100 dpi) works well for documents with normal sized
characters.
FINE (200 X 200 dpi) is good for documents containing small characters,
thin lines, or print from a dot-matrix printer.
SUPER FINE (300 X 300 dpi) works well for documents containing
extremely fine details. SUPER FINE works only if the remote machine also
has the SUPER FINE features.
Contrast
To compensate for the brightness or darkness of your document, press the
Rcv. Mode/Contrast button repeatedly after loading a document until
you find the desired mode. You can choose between NORMAL, DARKEN,
LIGHTEN, or PHOTO.
NORMAL works well for normal documents.
DARKEN works well for light print or faint pencil markings. The light
image and text on the document will be darker on the printed page.
LIGHTEN works well for dark print. The dark image and text on the
document will be lighter on the printed page.
PHOTO is used when faxing photographs or other documents containing
color or shades of gray. When you choose this mode, you should set the
resolution to FINE.

Receiving a Fax
About Reception Modes
Your machine has four reception modes:
• In FAX mode, the machine answers an incoming call and immediately
goes into receive mode.
• In AUTO mode, the machine answers an incoming call expecting to
receive a fax. If the machine does not sense a fax signal, it will
continue to sound the ringing tone to tell you it is a phone call. If you
do not lift the handset during the ringing, the machine will switch to
automatic fax reception mode.
• In ANS/FAX mode, the answering machine answers an incoming call,
and the caller can leave a message on the answering machine. If the
fax machine senses a fax tone on the line, the call automatically
switches to the fax machine.

Polling
What is Polling?
Polling is used when one fax machine requests another to send a
document. This is useful when the person with the original document is
not in the office. The person to receive the document calls the machine
holding the original and requests that the document be sent. In other
words, it “polls” the machine holding the original.
Polling Transmission
You can program the fax machine to send documents in your absence
when polled by a remote fax machine. A polling code is used to prevent
unauthorized polling of your machine. When you secure your machine in
this manner, only those who know the poll code can poll your machine.

Print Media
Selecting Print Media
The type of media you select affects the performance and print quality.
Selecting Media Types
Most photocopy paper, postcards, index cards, transparencies, envelopes,
and labels will work your printer, particularly paper that is marked for
use in laser printers. For the best results, use one of the papers
developed especially for an laser printer.
What to Consider
• Desired outcome. The paper you choose should be appropriate for
the project. For example, use greeting card paper when making party
invitations.
• Size. Choose any size paper that fits easily within the paper adjusters
of the printer.
• Weight. Use 20~24-pound or 75~90 g/m2 plain paper for
multipurpose, everyday use.
• Brightness. Some papers are whiter than others and produce sharper,
more vibrant colors. Use premium photo paper for documents with
photographs. Use white paper for documents with any other pictures.
• Surface smoothness. The smoothness of the paper affects how crisp
the printing looks on the paper. Glossy, coated paper works well for
pictures and charts where you want crisp lines.
Get the Right Paper
Your Samsung SF-530 series is designed to work well on most common
office paper types and with quality 25% cotton bond paper. Because your
printer uses toner to produce an image, paper that accepts toner
produces the best results. Be sure to test a variety of paper types before
buying large quantities.

Paper that Might Not Work
• Highly textured stock, such as linen, may not print evenly because the
toner can bleed.
• Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically designed for
laser printers can jam the printer and repel toner.
• Multi-part forms, such as duplicate or triplicate forms can wrinkle and
jam; the toner is also more likely to smear.
• Paper in poor condition — with tears, dust, wrinkles, curled or bent
edges, or that doesn’t lie flat can jam the printer.
• Envelopes with thick or crooked edges; envelopes that are damaged,
curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped; envelopes that are shiny or
embossed; or envelopes with clasps or windows.
Selecting Media Sizes
The paper input tray can hold up to 150 sheets of 20 Ib (75 g/m2)
paper. The single-sheet manual input tray is designed to hold one sheet.
Both can be adjusted to hold media measuring from 3.87 by 6.38
inches (98.5 by 162 mm) to 8.5 by 14 inches (216 by 356 mm). This
includes, but is not limited to, the following paper and envelope sizes:
•A4:
•A5:
•B5:
•Letter:
•Folio:
•Legal:
•Executive:
•No.10 Envelopes:
•DL. Envelopes:

Using the Automatic Paper Input Tray
You can stack paper or transparencies in the automatic paper tray to
feed automatically. The automatic tray can hold a maximum of 150
sheets of plain paper. The maximum capacity may be reduced depending
on the thickness.
For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper
(see page 4.10).
Note: If you experience feeding problems, try printing one at a time from
the manual input tray. See page 4.5.
1. Pull the paper input support completely out of the unit.
2. Prepare the print material for loading.
• For paper:
- Flex or fan the paper back and forth. Do not fold or crease the
paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface.

• For transparencies:
- Hold the transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print
side.
- Fan the stack of transparencies to prevent feeding failures.
Be careful not to scratch or leave fingerprints on the print sides.
3. Load the print material into the paper tray. Load only as much paper
as will fit beneath the lip protruding from the paper-length adjuster.
Neatly stacking the paper before loading will help prevent print
problems. Do not mix types. See the following directions to load each
type of print material.
• Load paper with the print side facing up.
• Load letterhead paper face up with the top of the page going
into the tray first.

4. Slide both paper adjusters to fit against the paper’s edges. Ensure
the paper line flat in the tray.
Print Side Up
Most papers prints better on one side than on the other. This is
especially true for coated or specially treated paper. The print side is
usually indicated on the paper package. Be sure to insert the paper into
the paper tray of the printer with the print side up.
Using the Manual Paper Input Tray
To load a single envelope, card stock, or specialty paper, use the manual
paper input tray. When you use the manual input tray, you must feed
one piece of media at a time. Manual feeding is helpful when printing on
heavy paper or when experiencing paper jam with the automatic paper
input tray.

Specialty Paper Guidelines
• Read all instructions that come with special paper for important
information regarding how to achieve the highest print quality.
• It is recommended to feed one sheet at a time for special paper types.
• For transparency film, follow these guidelines:
- Let printed sheets of film dry completely before storing.
- When a sheet of film has dried completely, cover its printed side with
a sheet of plain (not coated) paper before storing; This is
recommended even if placed in a clear file or plastic holder.
- Do not leave the film in the paper tray for long periods of time as
dust and dirt may accumulate, resulting in poor copy quality.
- To avoid fading, do not expose the printed film to prolonged direct
sunlight.
- Store unused papers and films flat. Do not remove papers from their
protective packaging until ready for use.
- Store unused film at temperatures between 59oF to 86oF (15oC to 30
oC). The relative humidity should be between 10% and 70%.
• For labels, follow these guidelines:
- Verify that the labels’ adhesive material can tolerate fusing
temperature of 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second.
- Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between the
labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing,
which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause
damage to printer components.
- Do not feed a sheet of labels through the printer more than once.
The adhesive backing is designed for one pass through the printer.
- Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are
wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
• If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may
curl slightly due to the large amount of toner. To print dense graphics,
try printing on heavier stock.
• Do not use paper that is thicker than the specifications as it may
damage the toner cartridge.

Using Page Overlays
What is an Overlay?
Dear ABC
An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer HDD as a
special file format that can be printed on any document you choose.
Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and
letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead, for example,
you can create an overlay containing the exact same information as is
currently on your letterhead. Then when you want to print a letter with
your company’s letterhead, you do not need to load preprinted
letterhead paper in the printer. You need only to tell the printer to print
the letterhead overlay on your document.

Cleaning the Machine
To maintain print quality, follow the cleaning procedures below every
time the toner cartridge is replaced or whenever print quality problems
occur. As much as possible, keep your machine free from dust and
debris.
Note:
• Do not use ammonia-based sprays or volatile solvents such as thinner to
clean the machine, as these can damage the machine’s surface.
• While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful no to touch the
transfer roller (located underneath the toner cartridge). The oil from your
hands on the roller can cause print quality problems.
Cleaning the Outside
Wipe the outside surfaces of your machine with a soft, clean, and lint-
free cloth. You can dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful
not to let any water drip onto the machine or inside it.
Cleaning the Inside
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can
accumulate inside the machine. Over time, this buildup can cause print
quality problems such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning inside the
printer will eliminate or reduce these problems.
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord, then wait for the
machine to be cool.

Managing the Toner Cartridge
Expected Cartridge Life
The life of your toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner used in
each print job. For instance, when you print a typical business letter with
about 5% page coverage, you can expect a toner cartridge life of
approximately 2,500 pages (1,000 pages only for the toner cartridge
shipped with your machine). The actual number may vary according to
the print density of the page you print. If you print a lot of graphics, you
may need to change the cartridge more often.
You can extend the life of your toner cartridge by using Toner Save Mode
on the printer properties (page 4.11) or on the front panel (page 1.22).
The Toner Save Mode uses less toner than normal printing. The printed
image is much lighter, and is adequate for printing drafts or proofs.
Redistributing the Toner Cartridge
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life, white streaks or hue
changes will occur. You can temporarily re-establish the print quality by
re-distributing the remaining toner in the cartridge.
1. Open the cover and remove the toner cartridge.
2. Gently shake the cartridge to distribute the toner evenly inside the
cartridge.
3. Reinstall the cartridge and close the cover.
This is typically successful one time only. When the toner eventually runs
out, only blank pages will print when a print job is sent, or when
a fax is received. At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced.
See the following page.

Take the following steps to replace the toner cartridge:
1. Pulling the cover release buttons toward you, open the cover.
2. Remove the old toner cartridge. Follow the instructions printed on the
cartridge box to recycle the used cartridge.
3. Unpack a new toner cartridge from its plastic bag, and then remove
the paper rolled the cartridge.

Tips for Avoiding Paper Jams
By carefully selecting print materials and loading them properly, you
should be able to avoid most paper jams. If jams do occur, follow the
steps outlined in “Clearing Paper Jams” starting on page 6.1. If jams
occur frequently, make sure that you are following these preventative
tips:
• Follow the procedures in “Loading Paper” on page 1.15 to load paper
properly. Make sure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly.
• Do not overload the paper. Up to 150 sheets can be loaded in the
automatic paper input tray at a time and the manual input tray holds
only one sheet at a time.
• If you are needed to add more sheets of paper while printing, remove
the remaining paper from the tray at first. Then, reinsert them with the
new paper. Note that adding new paper into the remains in the tray
may cause paper jams or multiple feeding.
• Envelopes with self-stick adhesives may cause wrinkling, creasing, or
even jams and may even damage your machine.
• Fan stacks of labels or transparencies before loading them into the
automatic paper input tray. If jams occur when using the paper input
tray, try feeding one sheet at a time in the manual input tray.
• Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or highly curled paper.
• Do not mix paper sizes in the paper input tray.
• Use only recommended print media.
• Make sure that the recommended print side is facing up when loading
it in the paper input tray.
• Keep print media stored in a suitable environment.

Connecting Other Devices to the Phone Line
You can connect other devices to the same phone line as the SF-530
series product.
Deciding What to Connect
You have connected the SF-530 series to the wall jack. Generally, there
are three other devices that can be connected to the same phone line:
• a telephone
• an answering machine
• an external modem or a computer with an internal modem
Which, of these you connect to this phone line depends on your
configuration. Please see the following configurations.
Situation 1
You connected the SF-530 series to a wall jack with a phone
line for fax calls only (a dedicated fax line).
You do not need to connect any other devices. However:
• You can connect an external modem or a computer with an internal
modem to this phone line if you want to use the fax line to access the
Internet or e-mail.
• You can connect an extra telephone to this wall jack if you would like
to make outgoing voice calls.
To connect any of these devices to the same phone line, go to
“Connecting Other Devices, Overview” on page A.3. If you have another
wall jack for this phone line, you can connect the extra phone and/or
external modem or computer with internal modem to the other wall jack.
Note: Because this is a dedicated fax line, you should never have an
answering machine or computer connected. Or, using computer
voicemail, you must connect the computer with internal modem or
the external modem to your dedicated voice line. You will connect to
the Internet or e-mail using the dedicated voice line.
A.1
Appendix
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Situation 2
You connected the SF-530 series to a wall jack with a phone
line for fax and voice calls (a shared line).
Connect any other devices you have to this phone line. To connect the
other devices you have to the same wall jack as the product, go to
Appendix “Connecting Other Devices, Overview” on page A.3.
If you have another wall jack for this phone line, you can connect some
of the devices to that wall jack. However, if you have an answering
machine or computer with voicemail, make sure to connect it to the
same wall jack as the SF-530 series.
Special Situations
You have two phone lines coming into one wall jack.
When you connected the SF-530 series, you should have plugged it into
a phone unit splitter connected to the wall jack. Proceed as if that side of
the phone unit splitter is a phone line for fax calls only (a dedicated
line). See “Situation 1” on page A.1.
You have one phone line with two phone numbers and
distinctive ring service.
Use the same guidelines in “Situation 2” above for connecting other
devices. You can change settings for distinctive ring later.

Safety Information
Important Precautions and Safety Information
When using this fax machine, these basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.
3. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product and in the
literature accompanying the product.
4. If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information, heed
the safety information. You may have misunderstood the operating
instruction. If you cannot resolve the conflict, contact your sales or service
representative for assistance.
5. Unplug the fax machine from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack before
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth for
cleaning.
6. Do not place the fax machine on an unstable cart, stand, or table. It may fall,
causing serious damage.
7. Your fax machine should never be placed on, near, or over a radiator, heater,
air conditioner, or ventilation duct.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power, telephone. Do not locate your fax
machine where the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.
9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish
performance, and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
10. Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone, or PC interface
cords.
11. Never push objects of any kind into the fax machine through case or cabinet
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of fire
or shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the fax machine.
A.6
Appendix

12. Your product may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the document
for the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type product). In
this case, replace the cover after placing document on the scan glass, by
holding and moving it down slowly until it seats on its location.
13. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the fax machine.
Take it to aqualified service technician when repair work is required.
Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other
risks. Incorrect reassembly could cause electric shock when the unit is
subsequently used.
14. Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, PC, and AC wall outlet, and
refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
• When any part of the power cord, plug, or connecting cable is damaged or
frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled into the product.
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the product does not operate properly after instructions have been
followed.
• If the product has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.
• If the product exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.
15. Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may require
extensive work by a qualified service technician to restore the product to
normal operation.
16. Avoid using this fax machine during a lightning storm. There may be a
remote risk of electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC
power and telephone for the duration of the lightning storm.
17. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
In Case of Interference
In normal operation, your SAMSUNG fax machine produces and uses radio-
frequency energy. In some cases, this can cause interference to other electronic
equipment. Part 15 of the FCC rules establishes guidelines limiting the amount
of radio-frequency energy which may be produced by electronic equipment.
Tests have proven that your Samsung FAX machine meets or exceeds these
guidelines, and is classified a “Class B Digital Device” for operation in a
residential environment. When installed and operated according to instructions,
your SAMSUNG fax machine should not cause interference to the types of
equipment expected to be found in a normal residential environment.
Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.

In the event your SAMSUNG fax machine appears to cause interference to other
electronic equipment, it can often be easily remedied. First determine if the
source of interference really is your FAX machine. To do this, turn its power off
and on while observing the equipment experiencing the interference. If the
interference disappears when you turn the FAX machine off, the following steps
can be very effective in correcting interference problems:
• Connect the FAX machine to an AC outlet which is on a different circuit
breaker from the equipment experiencing interference.
• Increase the distance between the FAX machine and the equipment
experiencing interference.
• Cable TV amplifiers and splitters are extremely prone to interference. Be
certain that they are as far as possible from the FAX machine and its AC
power and telephone cords.
• Replace “twin lead” antenna wire with shielded coaxial cable, and use proper
connectors and adaptors.
• Turn or relocate the receiving antenna. In most cases this is easily done by
sim-ply moving a radio. A TV antenna may need to be re-oriented or installed
in another area of the building.
• Consult your dealer, a reputable radio/TV technician, or an Amateur Radio
Operator for help.
* To locate an Amateur Radio Operator in your area, contact The American
Radio Relay League, 610 Main St., Newington, CT 06111.
Fax Branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any
person to use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a
telephone facsimile machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin
at the top or bottom of each transmitted page
or on the first page of the transmission the following information:
(1) the date and time of transmission
(2) identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the
message; and
(3) telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business
entity or individual.
See pages 1.22 to 1.23 for instructions on how to enter this information into
your Samsung FAX machine’s memory.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment operations, or procedures where such action is reasonably required
in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and
regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to
render any customer terminal equipment incompatible with telephone company
communications facilities, or require modification or alteration of such terminal
equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or performance, the customer
shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow the customer an opportunity
to maintain uninterrupted service.

Telephone Company Information
FCC IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this equipment
may be found on the label located on the bottom or rear of the machine. In some
instances you may need to provide these numbers to the telephone company.
RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed on
the telephone line, and is useful for determining whether you have “overloaded”
the line. Installing several types of equipment on the same telephone line may
result in problems making and receiving telephone calls, especially ringing when
your line is called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of the equipment on
your telephone line should be less than five in order to assure proper service from
the telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may not be usable on your
line. If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should
immediately remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the
telephone network.
WARNING:
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not
expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate
this equipment. In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the
telephone network, the telephone company should notify the customer that service
may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may
temporarily cease service, providing that they:
a) Promptly notify the customer.
b) Give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.
c) Inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal
Communication Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and
Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.
You should also know that:
• Your Samsung FAX machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX
system.
• If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone line as
your FAX machine, you may experience transmission and reception problems with
all the equipment. It is recommended that no other equipment, except for a
regular telephone, share the line with your FAX machine.
• If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we
recommend that you install surge protectors for both the power and the
telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or
telephone and electronic specialty stores.
• When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency
numbers, use a non-emergency number to advise the emergency service
dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will give you further instructions on
how to actually test the emergency number.
• This equipment may not be used on coin service or party lines.
• This telephone provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.
• You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by means of a
standard modular jack, USOC RJ-11C.

Replacing the fitted plug (for UK Only)
Important
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp plug and has a 13
amp fuse. When you change or examine the fuse, you must re-fit the correct 13 amp fuse. You
then need to replace the fuse cover. If you have lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until
you get another fuse cover from the people whom you bought the machine.
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be suitable.
However, some buildings (mainly old ones) do not have normal 13 amp plug sockets. You
need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove the moulded plug.
Warning
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.
You cannot rewire the plug or you may get an electric shock
if you put it into a socket.
Important warning: You must earth this machine.
The wires in the mains lead have the following colour code:
• Green and Yellow
• Blue
• Brown
: Earth
: Neutral
: Live
If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colours marked in your plug, do the following:
You must connect the green and yellow wire to the pin marked by the letter ‘E’, or by the
safety ‘Earth symbol’ or coloured green and yellow or green.
You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter ‘N’ or coloured
black.
You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter ‘L’ or coloured
red.
You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.
