the country you will be using the wireless device in, is not listed, contact your local Radio Approval agency for requirements. Wireless devices
are closely regulated and use may not be allowed.
The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be emb
edd
ed in your printer is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this
time. Because the wireless devices (which may be embedded into your printer) emit less energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety stan-
dards and recommendations, manufacturer believes these devices are safe
for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to
minimize human contact during normal operation.
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless device and the body, for use of a wireless device near the body
(this does not include extremities) is typical. This device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from the body when wireless devices are
on and transmitting.
This transmitter must not be collocated or operation
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. E
xamples of common restrictions are listed below:
Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless
devices to be turned off while traveling in an airplane. IEEE 802.11 (also known as wireless Ethernet) and Bluetooth communication devices
are examples of devices that provide wireless communication.
In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless
device may be restricted or eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen or flammable gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use
of wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When in environments where you are uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices,
ask the applicable authority for authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.
Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless devices. Since your system is equipped with a wireless device, when traveling
between countries with your system, check with the local Radio Approval authorities prior to any move or trip for any restrictions on the use of
a wireless device in the destination country.
If your system came equipped with an internal embedded wireless device, do not operate the wireless device unless all covers and shields are
in place and the system is fully assembled.
Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use it.
Contact manufacturer for service.
Only use drivers approved for the country in which the device will be used. See the manufacturer System Restoration Kit, or contact manufac-
turer Technical Support for additional information.

INTRODUCING USEFUL NETWORK PROGRAMS
There are several programs available to setup the network settings easily in
network environment. For the network administrator especially, managing
several machines on the network is possible.
Before using the programs below, set the IP address first.
SyncThru™ Web Service
Web server embedded on your network machine, which allows you to:
Configure the network parameters necessary for the machine to connect
to vario
us network environments.
Customize machine settings.
(See "Using SyncThru™ Web Service" on page 68.)
SyncThru™ Web Admin Service
A web-based machine management solution for network administrators.
SyncThru™ Web Admin Service provides you with an efficient way of man-
aging network devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot net-
work machines from any site with corporate internet access. Download this
program from http://solution.samsungprinter.com.
SetIP
This utility program allows you to select a network interface and manually
configure the IP addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol (See "IPv4 set-
ting using SetIP Program (Windows)" on page 37, "IPv4 setting using SetIP
Program (Mac)" on page 37 or "IPv4 setting using SetIP Program (Linux)"
on page 38).
TCP/IPv6 is not supported by this program.
USING A WIRED NETWORK
You must set up the network protocols on your machine to use it on your
network. This chapter will show you how this is easily accomplished.
You can use network after connecting network cable to a corresponding
port
on your machine.
Printing configuration report
You can print a Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that
will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up
a network and troubleshoot problems.
Network setup_ 37
1. Press Menu on the control panel.
2. Press the up/down arrow to highlight Information and
press OK.
3. Press the up/down arrow to highlight Con
figuration and press OK.
The machine prints the Config
uration Report.
Using this Conf
iguration Report, you can find your machine MAC address
and IP address.
For example:
MAC Address: 00:15:99:41:A2:78
IP Addres
s: 192.0.0.192
Setting IPv4 address
You must set up an IPv4 address for network printing and management. In
most cases a new IP address will be automatically assigned by a DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server located on the network.
If you use IPv6 address, refer to "IPv6 Configuration" on page 40
In a few situations the IP address must be set manually. This is called a
static IP and
is often required in corporate Intranets for security reasons.
DHCP IP assignment: Co
nnect your machine to the network, and wait a
few minutes for the DHCP server to assign an IP address to the
machine. Then, print the Configuration Report as explained above. If
the report shows that the IP address has changed, the assignment was
successful. You will see the new IP address in the report.
Static IP assignment: Use th
e SetIP program to change the IP address
from your computer. If your machine has a control panel, you can also
change the IP address using the machine's control panel.
In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network admin-
istrator to set this address for you.
IPv4 setting using control panel
1. Connect your machine to the network with a network cable.
2. Turn on the machine.
3. Press Menu on
the control panel.
4. Press the u
p/down arrow to highlight Network and press OK.
5. Press the u
p/down arrow to highlight TCP/IP (IPv4) and press OK.
6. Press the u
p/down arrow to highlight Set IPv4 Address and press
OK.
7. Press the
u
p/down arrow to highlight Manual and press OK.
8. Enter the
IP address using numeric keypad and press OK.
9. In the same way, enter other parameters such as Subnet Mask and
-
Gateway and
press OK.
10. After entering
all parameters, press Stop/Clear to return to the ready
mode.
Now go to "Installing network connected machine’s driver" on page 38.

To use UNIX Printer Driver, you have to install the UNIX printer driver pack-
age first, then setup the printer. You can download the UNIX Printer Driver
pa
ckage from the Samsung website.
Installing the UNIX printer driver package
Installation procedure is common for all variants of UNIX OS mentioned
(See "UNIX" on page 32).
1. From
the Samsung website, download and unpack the UNIX Printer
Driver package to your computer.
2. Acq
uire root privileges.

This chapter provides information on how to load originals and print media into your machine.
This chapter includes:
Selecting print media
Changing the tray size
Loading paper in tray
Printing on special media
Setting the default tray and paper
SELECTING PRINT MEDIA
You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes,
labels. Always use print media that meet the guidelines for use with your
machine.
Guidelines to select 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.
Pro
perties, such as weight, composition,
grain and moisture content, are
important factors that affect the machine’s performance and the output qual-
ity. When you choose print materials, consider the following:
The
type, size and weight of the print media for your machine are
described in print media specifications (See "Print media specifications"
on page 110).
Desired outcome: Th
e print media you choose should be appropriate for
your project.
Bri
ghtness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce
sharpe
r, 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
improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels,
or other variables over which cannot be controlled.
Befo
re purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it
me
ets the requirements specifications in this user’s guide and
meets your output requirements.
Using print media that does not meet these specifications may
cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by
the warranty or service agreements.
Using inflammable print media can cause a fire.
Use designated prin
t media (See "Print media specifications" on
page 110).
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.
The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media type
us
ed (See "Print media specifications" on page 110).

Multi-purpose tray
The multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and types of print material,
such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes. It is useful for single page
printing on letterhead or colored paper, please check maximum sheets you
can load based on thickness (See "Print media specifications" on
page 110).
Tips on using the multi-purpose tray
Load only one type, size and weight of print media at time in the
multi-purpose tray.
To
prevent paper jams, do not add paper
while printing when there is
still paper in the multi-purpose tray. This also applies to other types
of print media.
Always load the specified print media only to avoid paper jams and
prin
t quality problems. (See "Print media specifications" on
page 110.)
Fla
tten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading
them into the multi-purpose tray.
1. Hold
the handle of multi-purpose tray and pull it down to open and
pull
out the multi-purpose tray paper extension.

2. Flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before
loading paper.
3. Place paper with the side you want to print facing up.
When printing the special media, you must follow the load-
ing guideline. (See "Printing on special media" on page 47.)
Wh
en papers overlap when printing using Multi-purpose
tra
y, open tray 1 and remove overlapping papers then try
printing again.
When paper does not feed well while printing, push the
pap
er in manually until it starts feeding automatically.
Media and tray_ 47
4. Squeeze the multi-purpose tray paper width guides and adjust them
to the width of the paper. Do not force them too much, or the paper
will bent resulting in a paper jam or skew.
5. When you print a document, set the paper type and size for the
multi-purpose tray. For information about setting the paper type and
size on the control panel (see "Setting the default tray and paper" on
page 49).
PRINTING ON SPECIAL MEDIA
The table below shows the available special media for each tray.
The paper setting in the machine and driver should match to print without a
paper mismatch error.
T
o change the paper setting set in the machine,
from the Samsung Easy
Printer Manager select
(Switch to advanced mode) > Device Set-
tings.
Or if your machine supports a display screen, you can set it using the
(Menu) button on the control panel.
Then, set the paper type from the Printing preferences window > Paper
tab > Paper Type (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 52).
When using special media, we recommend you feed one paper at a
time. Check the maximum input number of media for each tray (See

Envelope
Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the enve-
lopes.
To print an envelope, place it flap sid
e
up with the stamp area bottom the
top right side.
When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:
- Weight: Th
e weight of the envelope paper should not exceed
90 g/m
2
otherwise, jam may occur.
- Construction: Pri
or to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less
than a 7 mm curl and should not contain air.
- Co
ndition: Env
elopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, either dam-
aged.
- Temperature: Use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and
pressure of the machine during operation.
U
se only well-constructed envelopes with sharp-and well-creased folds.
Do not use stamped envelopes.
Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining,
self-
adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
D
o not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to
the corner of the envelope.

fusing temperature about 170°C (338 °F) for 0.1 second. The extra flaps
and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams and may even dam-
age the fuser.
For the best print quality, posi
tion margins no closer than 15 mm from
the edges of the envelope.
Avo
id printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.
Transparency
To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use
in laser printers.
Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand
machine’s fusing temperature.
Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.
Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long periods of
ti
me. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.
To avo
id smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.
To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sun-
light.
Ensure
that transp
arencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn
edges.
Do not use transparencies that separates from the backing sheet.
To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the
p
rinted sheets stack up as they are begin printed out.
Base
type transparency (ex. Xerox 3R3117) results in better image and
pap
er handling quality than paper backed (ex. Xerox 3R3028) or remov-
able stripe (3R3108) ones.
Depending on the selection or storage conditions of the transpar-
ency, jam or image scratch might occur.
Labels
To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser
machines.
When selecting labels, consider the following factors:
- Adhesives: Th
e adhesive material should be stable at your
machine’s fusing temperature about 170°C (338 °F).
- Arra
ngement: Onl
y use labels with no exposed backing between
them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the
labels, causing serious jams.
- Curl: Prior to
printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm
of curl in any direction.
- Co
ndition: D
o not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indica-
tions of separation.
Do not use labels with slick back.
Do not use partially used labels.
Do not use the labels with separated edges.
Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.
Exp
osed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can
cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to
machine components.
D
o not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The
a
dhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the
machine.
D
o not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrin-
kled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
Card stock/Custom-sized paper
Do not print on media smaller than 76.2 mm (3 inches) wide or 127 mm
(5 inches) long.
In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches)
away from the edges of the material.
U
sable minimum weight of 3*5 inches paper is 105g/m². (28 lbs bond)
Ensure that 76.2 mm (3 inches) X 127 mm (5 inches) is not curled or has
no torn edges. Depending on the curl of 76.2 mm (3 inches) X 127 mm
(5
inches) paper, jam might occur.

ABOUT USB MEMORY DEVICE
USB memory devices are available with a variety of memory capacities to
give you more room for storing documents, presentations, music and vid-
eos, high resolution photographs, or whatever other files you want to store
or move.
Your machine supports USB memory devices with FAT16/FAT32 and sec-
tor size of 512 bytes.
Check your USB memory device’s file system from your dealer.
You must use only an authorized USB memory device with an A plug type
connector.
A B
Use only a USB memory device with metal-shielded connector.
Only use a USB memory device that has obtained compatibility certification;
otherwise, the machine might not recognize it.
Insert a USB memory device into the
US
B memory port on your machine.
Do not remove the USB memory device while it is in use. The
machine warranty does not cover damage caused by user’s mis-
use.
If your USB memory device has certain features (example, secu-
rity key,
security partition, booting disk, passwo
rd settings and so
forth), do not use the USB memory device with your machine. The
files stored in the USB memory device may be corrupted, or the
machine may not automatically detect it. For details about these
features, see device’s User’s Guide.
PRINTING FROM A USB MEMORY DEVICE
You can directly print files stored on a USB memory device.
If your USB memory device has certain features (example, security key,

the USB memory device with your machine. The files stored in the USB
memory device may be corrupted, or the machine may not automatically
detect it. For details about these features, see device’s User’s Guide.
Direct Print option supported file types:
PRN: Only files created by provided driver with your machine are com-
patible. PRN files can be created by selecting the Pr
int to file check box
when you print a document. The document will be saved as a PRN file,
rather than printed on paper. Only PRN files created in this fashion can
be printed directly from USB memory device (See "Printing to a file

CLEANING A MACHINE
Ensure power is off and the power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet
before cleaning your machine. If printing quality problems occur or if you
use your machine in a dusty environment, you need to clean your machine
regularly to keep the best printing condition and use your machine longer.
Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials con-
taining large amounts of alcohol, so
lvent, or other strong sub-
stances can discolor or distort the cabinet.
If your machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with
toner, we recommend you use cloth or tissue dampened with
water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the
air and might be harmful to you.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth
slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the
machine.
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper, toner and dust particles can accumulate
inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as
toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears and
reduces these problems.
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to
cool down.
2. Ope
n the top cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean flat
sur
face.
Maintenance_ 74
3. Pull the imaging unit out. Set it on a clean flat surface.
Do not touch the green surface of the imaging unit.
To prevent damage to the imaging unit, do not expose it to light
for more
than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if
necessary.
4. With a dry lint-free
cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner.
While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to
touch the transfer roller, located underneath the toner car-
tridge. Oil from your fingers can cause print quality problems.
5. Locate and clean the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the machine and
u
sing a cotton swab.
6. Reinsert the imaging unit and toner cartridge.
7. Close the top cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.
8. Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on.
STORING THE TONER CARTRIDGE
Toner cartridges contain components that are sensitive to light, temperature
and humidity. Samsung suggests users follow the recommendations below
to ensure the optimum performance, highest quality and longest life from
your new Samsung toner cartridges.
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 instal-
lation – If original packaging is not available, cover the top opening of the
cartridge with pape
r and store in a dark cabinet.
Opening the cartridge package prior to use dram
atically 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:
Insi
de the protective bag from the original package.
Store lying fl
at (not standing on end) with the same side facing up as if
they were installed in the machine.
Do not store consumables in;
- Temperature greater than 40°C (104°F).
- Humidity range not less than 20% nor not greater than 80%.
- An environme
nt with extreme changes in humidity or temperature.
- Direct sunlig
ht or room light.
- Dusty places.
- A car for a long period of time.
- An environme
nt 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 vi
brations or shock.
Never manually rotate the drum, especially in the reverse di
rection; this
can cause internal damage and toner spillage.
Maintenance_ 75
Use of non-Samsung and refilled toner cartridge
Samsung Electronics does not recommend or approve the use of non-Sam-
sung brand toner cartridges in your prin
ter including generic, store brand,
refilled, or remanufactured toner cartridges.
Samsung’s printer warranty does not cover damage to the machine
caused by the use of a refilled, remanufactured, or non-Samsung
brand toner cartridge.
Estimated 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, 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.
TIPS FOR MOVING & STORING YOUR MACHINE
When moving the machine, do not tilt or turn it upside down. Otherwise,
the inside of the machine may be contaminated by toner, which can
cause damage to the machine or bad print quality.
Whe
n moving the machine, make sure at least two people are holding
the machine securely, you may wish to remove the consumables before
moving the machine.
Troubleshooting_ 76
11.troubleshooting
This chapter gives helpful information for what to do if you encounter an error. If your machine has a display screen, check
the message on the display screen first to solve the error. If you cannot find a solution in this User's Guide or the problem
consists, call for service.
This chapter includes:
Redistributing toner
Tips for avoiding paper jams
Clearing paper jams
Understanding display messages
Solving other problems
REDISTRIBUTING TONER
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:
White streaks or light printing occurs.
The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on
th
e display.
The
Status LED bli
nks red.
If this happens, you can temporarily improve the print quality by redistribut-
ing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases
,
white streaks or light
printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the toner.
1. Open the top cover and pull the toner cartridge out.
2. Thoroughly roll the cartridge five or six times to distribute the toner
evenly inside the cartridge.
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.
3. Reinsert the toner cartridge.
4. Close the top cover. Ensure that the cover is securely closed.
If the top cover is not completely closed, the machine will not oper-
ate.
TIPS FOR AVOIDING PAPER JAMS
By selecting the correct media types, most paper jams can be avoided.
When a paper jam occurs, refer to the next guidelines.
En
sure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly (See "
Loading
paper in tray" on page 46).
Do not overload the tray. Ensure that the paper level is below the paper
capacity mark on the inside of the tray.
D
o not remove paper from the tray while your machine is printing.
Flex, fan and straighten paper before loading.
Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.
Do not mix paper types in a tray.
Use only recommended print media (See "
Setting the default tray and
paper" on page 49).
En
sure that the recommended side of the print media is facing down in
the
tray, or facing up in the multi-purpose tray.

Printing quality problems
If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly,
there might be a reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the
problem.
The print quality
of photos is not
good. Images are
not clear.
The resolution of
the photo is very
low.
Reduce the photo size. If
you increase the photo size
in the software application,
the resolution will be
reduced.
Before printing,
the machine
emits vapor near
the output tray.
Using damp paper
can cause vapor
during printing.
This is not a problem. Just
keep printing.
The machine
does not print
special- sized
paper, such as
billing paper.
Paper size and
paper size setting
do not match.
Set the correct paper size in
the Paper tab in the Print-
ing Preferences (See
"Opening printing prefer-
ences" on page 52).
CONDITION SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS
Light or faded print If a vertical white streak or faded area
appears on the page, the toner supply is low
or the imaging unit is worn. You may be able
to temporarily extend the toner cartridge life
(See"Redistributing toner" on page 76). If this
does not improve the print quality, install a
new
toner cartridge or imaging unit.
T
he paper may not meet paper specifications;
for example
, the paper may be too moist or
rough (See "Print media specifications" on
page 110).
If the entire pa

setting is too low or the toner save mode is
on. Adjust the print resolution and turn the

Common Linux problems
CONDITION SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS
The machine does
not print.
Check if the printer driver is installed in your
system. Open Unified Driver Configurator and
switch to the Printers tab in Printers config-
uration windo

machines. Make sure that your machine is
displayed on the list. If not, open Add new
printer wizard to set up your device.
Ch
eck if the machine is started. Open Print-
e
rs configuration a
nd select your machine
on the printers list. Look at the description in
the Selected printer pane. If its status con-
tains Stopped
string, press the Start button.
After that normal operation of the machine
should be restored. The “stopped” status
might be activated when some problems in
printing occurred. For instance, this could be
an attempt to print a document when the port
is claimed by a scanning application.
En
sure the port is not busy. Since functional
components of machine (printer and scanner)
share the same I/O interface (port), the situa-
tion of simultaneous access of different user
appli
cations to the same port is possible. To
avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at a
time is allowed to gain control over the device.
The other user will encounter “device busy”
response. You should open ports configura-
tion and select the port assigned to your
mach
ine. In
the Selected port pane you can
see if the port is occupied by some other
application. If this is the case, you should
either wait for completion of the current job or
press the Release port button, if you are sure
that the present application is not functioning
properly.
Ch
eck if your application has special print
o
ption 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 command
line parameter in the command item.

WEP: W
EP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a security protocol
preventing unauthorized access to your wireless network.
WEP encrypts the data portion of each packet exchanged on a
wireless network using a 64-bit or 128-bit WEP encryption key.
WPA: WPA authorize
s and identifies users based on a secret
key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA also
uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) and AES
(Advanced Encryption Standard) for data encryption.

Glossary_ 122
glossary
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.
802.11
802.11 is a set of standards for wireless local area network (WLAN)
communication, developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards
Committee (IEEE 802).
802.11b/g/n
802.11b/g/n can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band.
802.11b supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, 802.11n supports
bandwidth up to 150 Mbps. 802.11b/g/n devices may occasionally suffer
interference from microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and Bluetooth
devices.
Access point
Access Point or Wireless Access Point (AP or WAP) is a device that
connects wireless communication devices together on wireless local
area networks (WLAN), and acts as a central transmitter and receiver of
WLAN radio signals.
ADF
An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a scanning unit 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 included in the original Mac (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.
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 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.
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, typically 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 de facto standard throughout the
industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.
DADF
A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a scanning unit that
will automatically feed and turn 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 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.
Glossary_ 123
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.
DLNA
The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a standard that allows
devices on a home network to share information with each other across
the network.
DMPr
The Digital Media Printer (DMPr) is a device that allows printing in DLNA
home network. The DMPr prints a page by combining images with an
Extensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML) template.
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 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.
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.
