Storing documents to Document box

About Document Box

The Document Box feature makes it possible to store scanned data to the

hard drive. Users can send the stored data to various destinations such

as print, fax, e-mail, or an FTP/SMB server. The Document Box provides

three types of boxes: public (

) , secured (

) , and common

(

) . The public box can be created by all users and all users can store

data to public boxes. The secured box can be created with password by

all users. This means that the only users who know the password can

access to the box and store their data. A common box is provided by

default. Users cannot create, edit, and delete the common box. When a

user needs to store a job that is not assigned to a box (i.e., fax receiving

or PC printing in store mode), the data will be stored in the common box

by default.

operating environment, printing interval, media type, and/or media size.

For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the consumption of the toner is

high and you may need to change the cartridge more often.

Maintaining the toner 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.

Redistributing toner

When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life.

• White streaks or light printing occurs.

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.

• The message saying that the estimated toner cartridge life is closed

may appear on the display.

If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish print quality by

redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white

streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the

toner.

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:

Turn the machine off, then wait a few minutes for the machine to

cool.

• Inside the protective bag from the original package.

• Correct side up in a horizontal position (not standing on end).

Open the side cover.

• Do not store consumables in;

- Temperature greater than 40C (104F).

- Humidity range less than 20% nor greater than 80%.

- An environment with extreme changes 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 photosensitive drum in the cartridge.

• Do not expose the cartridge to unnecessary vibrations or shock.

• Never manually rotate the drum, especially in the reverse direction;

this can cause internal damage and toner spillage.

Open the front cover.

Use of non-Samsung and refilled toner cartridge

Samsung Electronics does not recommend or approve the use of non-

Samsung brand toner cartridges in your printer including generic, store

brand, refilled, or remanufactured toner cartridges.

Note

Samsungs printer warranty does not cover damage to the

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

non-Samsung brand toner cartridge.

Expected cartridge life

Estimated cartridge life (the life of the toner cartridge yield) depends on

the amount of toner that print jobs require. The actual print-out number

may vary depending on the print density of the pages you print on,

13.3

Make sure that the cover is securely latched and then turn the

machine on.

Note

Toner particles can be released inside the machine but it

does not mean the machine is damaged. Contact a service

representative when print quality problems occur.

Caution

If the cover is not completely closed, the machine will not

operate.

Pull the corresponding toner cartridge out from the machine.

Replacing the toner cartridge

The machine uses four colors and has a different toner cartridge for each

one: yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), and black (K).

• The status LED and the toner-related message on the display

indicates which each individual toner cartridge should be replaced.

• The machine stops printing. Incoming faxes are saved in memory.

At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced. Check the type of

the toner cartridge for your machine. (Page 15.1)

Turn the machine off, then wait a few minutes for the machine to

cool.

Open the side cover.

Thoroughly roll the toner cartridge five or six times to distribute the

toner evenly inside the cartridge.

Note

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and

wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

Hold the toner cartridge and align it with the corresponding slot

inside the machine. Insert it back into its slot until it locks in place.

Light or faded print

If a vertical white streak or faded area appears

on the page:

• The toner supply is not enough. You may be

able to temporarily extend the toner

cartridge life. If this does not improve the

print quality, install a new toner cartridge.

• The color tone might not be adjusted. Adjust

the color tone. (Page 12.12)

• The paper may not meet paper

specifications; for example, the paper may

be too moist or rough. (Page 4.3)

White Spots

White spots appears on the page:

Vertical repetitive

defects

If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side

of the page at even intervals:

• The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from

a paper falls to the inner devices within the

machine, so the transfer roller may be dirty.

Clean the inside of your machine.

(Page 13.2) Contact a service

representative.

• The paper path may need cleaning. Contact

a service representative.

• The imaging unit may be damaged. If a

repetitive mark occurs on the page, run a

cleaning sheet through several times to

clean the cartridge; contact a service

representative. After the printout, if you still

have the same problems, remove the

imaging unit and then, install a new one.

(Page 13.4)

• Parts of the machine may have toner on

them. If the defects occur on the back of the

page, the problem will likely correct itself

after a few more pages.

Vertical lines

If black vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The drum inside the printer has probably

been scratched. Remove the imaging unit

and install a new one. (Page 13.6)

• The fusing assembly may be damaged.

Contact a service representative.

If white vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The surface of the LSU part inside the

machine may be dirty. Clean the LSU.

Contact a service representative.

Background scatter Background scatter results from bits of toner

randomly distributed on the printed page.

• The inside of the Imaging Unit may be dirty.

Change the Imaging Unit.

• The paper may be too damp. Try printing

with a different batch of paper. Do not open

packages of paper until necessary so that

the paper does not absorb too much

moisture.

• If background scatter occurs on an

envelope, change the printing layout to

avoid printing over areas that have

overlapping seams on the reverse side.

Printing on seams can cause problems.

• If background scatter covers the entire

surface area of a printed page, adjust the

print resolution through your software

application or in printer properties.

If vertical streaks appear on the page:

• The surface of the scanner glass and its

white sheet may be dirty. Clean these unit.

See 13.2 . If this problem persists, contact a

service representative.

If the amount of background shading becomes

unacceptable:

• Change the IBT if it has reached its lifespan.

• Check the environmental conditions: very

dry conditions (low humidity) or a high level

of humidity (higher than 80% RH) can

increase the amount of background

shading.

Misformed

characters

• If characters are improperly formed and

producing hollow images, the paper stock

may be too slick. Try different paper.

• Remove the old imaging unit and then,

Possible Cause and Solution

The machine does

not appear on the

scanners list.

• Check if your machine is attached to your

computer. Make sure that it is connected

properly via the USB port and is turned on.

• Check if the scanner driver for your machine is

installed in your system. Open the Unified

Driver configuration tool, switch to Scanner

configuration, then press Drivers. Make sure

that the window lists a driver with a name

corresponding to your machine's name. Check

if the port is not busy. Since functional

components of MFP (printer and scanner)

share the same I/O interface (port), the

situation of simultaneous access to different

“consumer” applications using the same port is

possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one

of them is allowed to gain control over the

device at a time. The other “consumer” will

encounter a “device busy” response. This

usually happens while starting the scan

procedure, and an appropriate message box

appears.

• To identify the source of the problem, you

should open ports configuration and select the

port assigned to your scanner. The port symbol

/dev/mfp0 corresponds to LP:0 designation

displayed in the scanners’ options, /dev/mfp1

relates to LP:1 and so on. USB ports start at /

dev/mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to /

dev/mfp4 respectively, and so forth

sequentially. In the Selected port pane you can

see if the port is occupied with some other

application. If this is the case, you should wait

for completion of the current job or you should

press the Release port button, if you are sure

that the port owner is not functioning properly.

Protocol) printing.

• Check if the printer driver is installed in your

system. Open the Unified Driver configuration

tool and switch to the Printers tab in the

Printers configuration window to look at the list

of available printers. Make sure that your

machine is displayed on the list. If not, use the

Add new printer wizard to set up your device.

• Check if the printer has started. Open Printers

configuration and select your machine on the

printers list. Look at the description in the

Selected printer pane. If its status contains

“(stopped)” string, please, press the Start

button. After that, normal operation of the

printer should be restored. The “stopped”

status might be activated when some

problems in printing occurred. For instance,

this could be an attempt to print documents

when the port is claimed by a scanning

application.

• Check if the port is not busy. Since functional

components of MFP (printer and scanner)

share the same I/O interface (port), the

situation of simultaneous access for different

“consumer” application to the same port is

possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one

of them is allowed to gain control over the

device at a time. The other “consumer” will

encounter “device busy” response. You should

open the ports configuration and select the

port assigned to your printer. In the Selected

port pane you can see if the port is occupied

by some other application. If this is the case,

you should wait for completion of the current

job or you should press the Release port

button, if you are sure that the owner is not

functioning properly.

• Check if your application has special print

options such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified

in the command line parameter then remove it

to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select

“print” -> “Setup printer” and edit the command

line parameter in the command item.

the print jobs whenever print options are changed

and then try to restart the job from the beginning.

Since Unified Linux Driver locks port while

printing, the abrupt termination of the driver

keeps the port locked and therefore unavailable

CSV

18Glossary

Comma Separated Values (CSV). A type of file format, CSV is used

to exchange data between disparate applications. The file format, as

it is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a pseudo standard

throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.

Note

The following glossary helps you get familiar with the product by

understanding the terminologies commonly used with printing

as well as mentioned in this user's guide.

DADF

A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a mechanism that

will automatically feed and flip over an original sheet of paper so that

the machine can scan on both sides of the paper.

ADF

Default

An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a mechanism that will

automatically feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can

scan some amount of the paper at once.

The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its

box state, reset, or initialized.

DHCP

AppleTalk

A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server

networking protocol. A DHCP server provides configuration

parameters specific to the DHCP client host requesting, generally,

information required by the client host to participate on an IP

network. DHCP also provides a mechanism for allocation of IP

addresses to client hosts.

AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc

for computer networking. It was included in the original Macintosh

(1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP

networking.

BIT Depth

A computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to

represent the color of a single pixel in a bitmapped image. Higher

color depth gives a broader range of distinct colors. As the number of

bits increases, the number of possible colors becomes impractically

large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly called as monochrome

or black and white.

DIMM

Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM), a small circuit board that holds

memory. DIMM stores all the data within the machine like printing

data, received fax data.

DNS

BMP

The Domain Name Server (DNS) is a system that stores information

associated with domain names in a distributed database on

networks, such as the Internet.

A bitmapped graphics format used internally by the Microsoft

Windows graphics subsystem (GDI), and used commonly as a

simple graphics file format on that platform.

Dot Matrix Printer

BOOTP

A dot matrix printer refers to a type of computer printer with a print

head that runs back and forth on the page and prints by impact,

striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like a

typewriter.

Bootstrap Protocol. A network protocol used by a network client to

obtain its IP address automatically. This is usually done in the

bootstrap process of computers or operating systems running on

them. The BOOTP servers assign the IP address from a pool of

addresses to each client. BOOTP enables 'diskless workstation'

computers to obtain an IP address prior to loading any advanced

operating system.

DPI

Dots Per Inch (DPI) is a measurement of resolution that is used for

scanning and printing. Generally, higher DPI results in a higher

resolution, more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size.

CCD

DRPD

Charge Coupled Device (CCD) is a hardware which enables the

scan job. CCD Locking mechanism is also used to hold the CCD

module to prevent any damage when you move the machine.

Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection. Distinctive Ring is a telephone

company service which enables a user to use a single telephone line

to answer several different telephone numbers.

Collation

Duplex

Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When

collation is selected, the device prints an entire set before printing

additional copies.

A mechanism that will automatically flip over a sheet of paper so that

the machine can print (or scan) on both sides of the paper. A printer

equipped with a Duplex can print double-sided of paper.

Control Panel

A control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or

monitoring instruments are displayed. They are typically found in

front of the machine.

Duty Cycle

Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer

performance for a month. Generally the printer has the lifespan

limitation such as pages per year. The lifespan means the average

capacity of print-outs, usually within the warranty period. For

example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 pages per month assuming 20

working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages a day.

Coverage

It is the printing term used for a toner usage measurement on

printing. For example, 5% coverage means that an A4 sided paper

has about 5% image or text on it. So, if the paper or original has

complicated images or lots of text on it, the coverage will be higher

and at the same time, a toner usage will be as much as the

coverage.

18.1

ECM

IEEE

Error Correction Mode (ECM) is an optional transmission mode built

into Class 1 fax machines or fax modems. It automatically detects

and corrects errors in the fax transmission process that are

sometimes caused by telephone line noise.

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is an

international non-profit, professional organization for the

advancement of technology related to electricity.

IEEE 1284

Emulation

The 1284 parallel port standard was developed by the Institute of

Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The term "1284-B"

refers to a specific connector type on the end of the parallel cable

that attaches to the peripheral (for example, a printer).

Emulation is a technique of one machine obtaining the same results

as another.

An emulator duplicates the functions of one system with a different

system, so that the second system behaves like the first system.

Emulation focuses on exact reproduction of external behavior, which

is in contrast to simulation, which concerns an abstract model of the

system being simulated, often considering its internal state.

Intranet

A private network that uses Internet Protocols, network connectivity,

and possibly the public telecommunication system to securely share

part of an organization's information or operations with its

employees. Sometimes the term refers only to the most visible

service, the internal website.

Ethernet

Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local

area networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical

layer, and frame formats and protocols for the media access control

(MAC)/data link layer of the OSI model. Ethernet is mostly

standardized as IEEE 802.3. It has become the most widespread

LAN technology in use during the 1990s to the present.

IP address

An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a unique number that devices

use in order to identify and communicate with each other on a

network utilizing the Internet Protocol standard.

IPM

EtherTalk

The Images Per Minute (IPM) is a way of measuring the speed of a

printer. An IPM rate indicates the number of single-sided sheets a

printer can complete within one minute.

A suite of protocols developed by Apple Computer for computer

networking. It was included in the original Macintosh (1984) and is

now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.

IPP

FDI

The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) defines a standard protocol for

printing as well as managing print jobs, media size, resolution, and

so forth. IPP can be used locally or over the Internet to hundreds of

printers, and also supports access control, authentication, and

encryption, making it a much more capable and secure printing

solution than older ones.

Foreign Device Interface (FDI) is a card installed inside the machine

to allow a third party device such as a coin operated device or a card

reader. Those devices allow the pay-for-print service on your

machine.

FTP

A File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a commonly used protocol for

exchanging files over any network that supports the TCP/IP protocol

(such as the Internet or an intranet).

IPX/SPX

IPX/SPX stands for Internet Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet

Exchange. It is a networking protocol used by the Novell NetWare

operating systems. IPX and SPX both provide connection services

similar to TCP/IP, with the IPX protocol having similarities to IP, and SPX

having similarities to TCP. IPX/SPX was primarily designed for local

area networks (LANs), and is a very efficient protocol for this purpose

(typically its performance exceeds that of TCP/IP on a LAN).

Fuser Unit

The part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media. It

consists of a hot roller and a back-up roller. After toner is transferred

onto the paper, the fuser unit applies heat and pressure to ensure

that the toner stays on the paper permanently, which is why paper is

warm when it comes out of a laser printer.

ISO

Gateway

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an

international standard-setting body composed of representatives

from national standards bodies. It produces world-wide industrial and

commercial standards.

A connection between computer networks, or between a computer

network and a telephone line. It is very popular, as it is a computer or

a network that allows access to another computer or network.

ITU-T

The International Telecommunication Union is an international

organization established to standardize and regulate international

radio and telecommunications. Its main tasks include

standardization, allocation of the radio spectrum, and organizing

interconnection arrangements between different countries to allow

international phone calls. A -T out of ITU-T indicates

telecommunication.

A shades of gray that represent light and dark portions of an image

when color images are converted to grayscale; colors are

represented by various shades of gray.

Halftone

An image type that simulates grayscale by varying the number of

dots. Highly colored areas consist of a large number of dots, while

lighter areas consist of a smaller number of dots.

disk, is a non-volatile storage device which stores digitally-encoded

data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces.

18.2

JBIG

OPC

Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group (JBIG) is an image compression

standard with no loss of accuracy or quality, which was designed for

compression of binary images, particularly for faxes, but can also be

used on other images.

Organic Photo Conductor (OPC) is a mechanism that makes a

virtual image for print using a laser beam emitted from a laser printer,

and it is usually green or gray colored and a cylinder shaped.

An exposing unit of a drum is slowly worn away by its usage of the

printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it gets

scratches from grits of a paper.

JPEG

Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) is a most commonly used

PDF

Portable Document Format (PDF) is a proprietary file format

developed by Adobe Systems for representing two dimensional

documents in a device independent and resolution independent

format.

Modified Huffman (MH) is a compression method for decreasing the

amount of data that needs to be transmitted between the fax

machines to transfer the image recommended by ITU-T T.4. MH is a

codebook-based run-length encoding scheme optimized to efficiently

compress white space. As most faxes consist mostly of white space,

this minimizes the transmission time of most faxes.

PostScript

PostScript (PS) is a page description language and programming

language used primarily in the electronic and desktop publishing

areas. - that is run in an interpreter to generate an image.

MMR

Modified Modified READ (MMR) is a compression method

recommended by ITU-T T.6.

Printer Driver

A program used to send commands and transfer data from the

Modem

computer to the printer.

A device that modulates a carrier signal to encode digital

information, and also demodulates such a carrier signal to decode

transmitted information.

Print Media

The media like paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies which

can be used on a printer, a scanner, a fax or, a copier.

PPM

Modified Read (MR) is a compression method recommended by

ITU-T T.4. MR encodes the first scanned line using MH. The next

line is compared to the first, the differences determined, and then the

differences are encoded and transmitted.

Pages Per Minute (PPM) is a method of measurement for

determining how fast a printer works, meaning the number of pages

a printer can produce in one minute.

NetWare

PRN file

A network operating system developed by Novell, Inc. It initially used

cooperative multitasking to run various services on a PC, and the

network protocols were based on the archetypal Xerox XNS stack.

Today NetWare supports TCP/IP as well as IPX/SPX.

An interface for a device driver, this allows software to interact with

the device driver using standard input/output system calls, which

simplifies many tasks.

18.3

Protocol

TWAIN

A convention or standard that controls or enables the connection,

communication, and data transfer between two computing

endpoints.

An industry standard for scanners and software. By using a TWAIN-

compliant scanner with a TWAIN-compliant program, a scan can be

initiated from within the program.; an image capture API for Microsoft

Windows and Apple Macintosh operating systems.

UNC Path

See PostScript.

Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) is a standard way to access

network shares in Window NT and other Microsoft products. The

format of a UNC path is: \\<servername>\<sharename>\<Additional

directory>

PSTN

The Public-Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is the network of

the world's public circuit-switched telephone networks which, on

industrial premises, is usually routed through the switchboard.

URL

Resolution

Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents

and resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates

what protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the

domain name where the resource is located.

The sharpness of an image, measured in Dots Per Inch (DPI). The

higher the dpi, the greater the resolution.

SMB

USB

Server Message Block (SMB) is a network protocol mainly applied to

share files, printers, serial ports, and miscellaneous communications

between nodes on a network. It also provides an authenticated Inter-

process communication mechanism.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a standard that was developed by the

USB Implementers Forum, Inc., to connect computers and

peripherals. Unlike the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently

connect a single computer USB port to multiple peripherals.

SMTP

Watermark

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the standard for e-mail

transmissions across the Internet. SMTP is a relatively simple, text-

based protocol, where one or more recipients of a message are

specified, and then the message text is transferred. It is a client-

server protocol, where the client transmits an email message to the

server.

A watermark is a recognizable image or pattern in paper that

appears lighter when viewed by transmitted light. Watermarks were

first introduced in Bologna, Italy in 1282; they have been used by

papermakers to identify their product, and also on postage stamps,

currency, and other government documents to discourage

counterfeiting.

Subnet Mask

The subnet mask is used in conjunction with the network address to

determine which part of the address is the network address and

which part is the host address.

WIA

Windows Imaging Architecture (WIA) is an imaging architecture that

is originally introduced in Windows Me and Windows XP. A scan can

be initiated from within these operating systems by using a WIA-

compliant scanner.

TCP/IP

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol

(IP); the set of communications protocols that implement the protocol

stack on which the Internet and most commercial networks run.

TCR

Transmission Confirmation Report (TCR) provides details of each

transmission such as job status, transmission result and number of

pages sent. This report can be set to print after each job or only after

failed transmissions.

TIFF

Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) is a variable-resolution bitmapped

image format. TIFF describes image data that typically come from

scanners. TIFF images make use of tags, keywords defining the

characteristics of the image that is included in the file. This flexible

and platform-independent format can be used for pictures that have

been made by various image processing applications.

Toner Cartridge

A kind of bottle within a machine like printer which contains toner.

Toner is a powder used in laser printers and photocopiers, which

forms the text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be melted

by the heat of the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.

choose Download as Bit Image and resubmit your print job.

This feature is available only when you use the PCL printer

driver.

Download as Bit Image: This option allows the driver to

download the font data as bitmap images. Documents with

complicated fonts, such as Korean or Chinese, or various other

fonts, will print faster in this setting. Download as bit image is

useful when printing from Adobe programs.

download any fonts as graphics. When printing documents

with high graphic content and relatively few TrueType fonts,

printing performance (speed) may be enhanced in this

Use Printer Fonts: When Use Printer Fonts is checked, the

printer uses the fonts that are stored in its memory (resident

fonts) to print your document, rather than downloading the

fonts used in your document. Because downloading fonts

takes time, selecting this option can speed up your printing

time. When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match

the fonts used in your document to those stored in its

memory. If, however, you use fonts in your document that are

very different from those resident in the printer, your printed

output will appear very different from what it looks like on the
