5.2 Printing
Get the Right Paper
Your Samsung SF-4700 is designed to work well on most common office
paper types and with quality 25% cotton bond paper. Because your
printer uses ink to produce an image, paper that accepts ink 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
ink can bleed.
• Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically designed for
inkjet printers can jam the printer and repel ink.
• Multi-part forms, such as duplicate or triplicate forms can wrinkle and
jam; the ink 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/m 2 )
paper. The single-sheet manual input slot is designed to hold one sheet.
Both can be adjusted to hold media measuring from 3 by 5 inches
(76.2 by 127 mm) to 8.5 by 17 inches (216 by 432 mm). This
includes, but is not limited to, the following paper and envelope sizes:
•Letter:
8.5 by 11 in; 216 by 279 mm
•A4: 8.25 by 11.75 in; 210 by 297 mm
•Legal: 8.5 by 14 in; 216 by 356 mm
•Executive: 7.25 by 10.5 in; 184 by 267 mm
•COM10 Envelopes: 4.125 by 9.5 in; 105 by 241 mm
•Monarch Envelopes: 3.875 by 7.5 in; 98.5 by 190.5 mm
•Other Custom Size
Note: Insert all media vertically (portrait orientation) into the paper input
tray or single-sheet manual input slot. To print horizontally (landscape
orientation), make this selection through software. Do not print on
paper smaller than 3 by 5 inches (76.2 by 127 mm).
