PDF file does not print 
correctly-some parts are 
missing in the graphics, 
text or illustrations. Incompatibility between the PDF file and 
the Acrobat products.
Printing the PDF file as an image may 
enable the file to print. Turn on

 from the Acrobat printing options.
Note: It will take longer to print when 
you print a PDF file as an image.
The document has 
printed, but the print job 
has not disappeared from 
the spooler in 
Mac OS 10.3.2. Update your Mac OS to OS 10.3.3. or 
higher.
Some letters are not 
displayed normally 
during the cover page 
printing. This problem is caused because Mac 
OS cannot find the font during the cover 
page printing.
Alphanumeric characters, in the Billing 
Info field, are only allowed for printing on 
the cover page. Other characters will be 
broken on the printout.
When printing a 
document in Macintosh 
with Acrobat Reader 6.0 
or higher, colors print 
incorrectly. Make sure that the re
solution setting in 
your printer driver matches the one in 
Acrobat Reader.

14 Installing accessories
Your machine is a full-featured mode l that has been optimized to meet 
most of your printing needs. Recognizing that each user may have 
different requirements, however,  Samsung makes several accessories 
available to enhance your machine’s capabilities.
This chapter includes:
• Precautions to take when installing accessories
• Installing a memory module
• Replacing the Stapler
• Enabling Fax feature after installing the fax option kit
Precautions to take when installing accessories
Disconnect the power cord
Never remove the control board cover while the power is being supplied on.
To avoid the possibility of an electrical shock, always disconnect the 
power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external 
accessories.
Discharge static electricity
The control board and internal accessories (network interface or DIMM) are 
sensitive to static electricity. Befo re installing or removing any internal 
accessories, discharge static electricity from your body by touching 
something metal, such as the meta l back plate on any device plugged into a 
grounded power source. If you walk r ound before finishing the installation, 
repeat this procedure to discharge any static electricity again.
Installing a memory module 
Your machine has a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) slot. Use this 
memory module slot to install additional memory.
The order information is pr ovided for optional memory module. (Page 13.1)
1Turn the machine off and unplug all cables from the machine. 2
Open the control board cover by grasping it and slide toward you.
3 Take out a new memory module from the plastic bag.
4 Holding the memory module by the edges, align the memory 
module on the slot at about a 30- degree tilt. Make sure that the 
notches of the module and the groov es on the slot fit each other.
5 Press the memory module into the slot with care until you hear a 
click. 
Note
The notches and grooves illustrated above may not match 
those on an actual DIMM and its slot.
6 Replace the control board cover. 
7 Reconnect the power cord and printer cable, and turn the machine 
on.

16 Glossary
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 users guide.
ADF
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. 
AppleTalk
AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc 
for computer networking. It was in cluded 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 po ssible colors becomes impractically 
large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly called as monochrome 
or black and white.
BMP
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.
BOOTP
Bootstrap Protocol. A network protoc ol 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.
CCD 
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.
Collation
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.
Control Panel
A control panel is a flat, typicall y vertical, area where control or 
monitoring instruments are displayed. They are typically found in 
front of the machine. 
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.
CSV
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.
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.
Default
The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its 
box state, reset, or initialized.
DHCP
A Dynamic Host Configuration Prot ocol (DHCP) is a client-server 
networking protocol. A DHCP server provides configuration 
parameters specific to the DHCP cl ient 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.
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
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.
Dot Matrix Printer
A dot matrix printer refers to a ty pe 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.
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.
DRPD 
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.
Duplex
A mechanism that will automatically f lip 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.
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.
ECM
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.
