Guidelines for selecting the print media
Print media 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.
•
Permanent fuser damage, not covered under warranty.
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.
•
Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and
still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of the
sheets characteristics, improper handling, unacceptable
temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which
cannot be controlled.
•
Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it
meets the required specifications in this user’s guide and meets
your output requirements.
•
Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause
problems or require repairs. Such repairs are not covered by
Samsung’s warranty or service agreements.
•
Make sure not to use the inkjet photo paper with this machine. It
could cause damage to the machine.
•
Using inflammable print media can cause a fire.
•
Use designated print media (See "Print media specifications" on
page 92).
The use of inflammable media or foreign materials left in the printer
may lead to overheating of the unit and, in rare cases may cause a
fire.
