Depending on the options, percentage of image area and job mode used, the toner cartridge’s lifespan may differ.

When purchasing new toner cartridges or other supplies, these must be purchased in the same country as the machine you are using. Otherwise, new toner
cartridges or other supplies will be incompatible with your machine due to different configurations of toner cartridges and other supplies according to the specific
country conditions.

• The toner cartridge included in the printer/all-in-one product you purchased is not available for sale and is not guaranteed to be compatible with any
other printer.
• Samsung does not recommend using non-genuine Samsung toner cartridge such as refilled or remanufactured toner. Samsung cannot guarantee non-genuine
Samsung toner cartridge's quality. Service or repair required as a result of using non-genuine Samsung toner cartridges will not be covered under the machine’s
warranty.

3. Maintenance 74
Available maintenance parts
You need to replace the maintenance parts at specific intervals to keep the machine in the best condition and avoid print quality and paper feeding problems
resulting from the worn-out parts. Maintenance parts are mostly rollers, belts and pads. However, the replacement period and parts may differ depending on the
model. Replacing maintenance parts can be performed only by an authorized service provider, dealer, or the retailer where you bought the machine. To purchase
maintenance parts, contact the retailer where you bought the machine. The replacement period for the maintenance parts is informed by the "Samsung Printer
Status" program. Or on the UI (User Interface) if your machine supports a display screen. The replacement period varies based on the operating system used,
computing performance, application software, connecting method, paper type, paper size, and job complexity.

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

• White streaks or light printing occurs and/or density varies from side to side.

• The Status LED blinks orange. The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on the display.

• The computer’s Samsung Printing Status program window appears on the computer telling you which color cartridge is low on toner (see "Using Samsung
Printer Status" on page 255).

If this happens, you can temporarily improve 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.

Illustrations on this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on its options or models. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page 21).

• Do not use sharp objects such as a knife or scissors to open the toner cartridge package. They might scratch the drum of 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.

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.

• 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.
• Do not touch the green area of the imaging unit. Use the handle on the imaging unit to avoid touching this area.
• Use a dry lint free cloth when cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to damage the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents such
as benzene or thinner. Printing quality problems can occur and cause damage to the machine.

• Use a dry lint-free cloth to clean the machine.

• Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to cool down. If your machine has a power switch, turn the power switch off before
cleaning the machine.

has a display screen, check the message on the display screen first to solve the error.
If you cannot find a solution to your problem in this chapter, refer to the Troubleshooting
chapter in the Advanced Guide (see "Troubleshooting" on page 264).
If you cannot find a solution in the User's Guide or the problem persists, call for service.
Tips for avoiding paper jams
By selecting the correct medias, most paper jams can be avoided. To avoid paper jams, refer to the following guidelines:

• Ensure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly (see "Tray overview" on page 39).

• Do 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 papers in a tray.

• Use only recommended print media (see "Print media specifications" on page 113).

• Perforated or embossed paper does not separate easily. Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and fan them.
Feed single paper from tray if there are multi-feeds or paper jams.

• Grain refers to the alignment of the paper fibers in a sheet of paper. Grain long paper is recommended.

• Do not use rough-edged paper.

Clearing paper jams
When an original document jams in the document feeder, a warning message appears on the display.

To avoid tearing the document, remove the jammed document slowly and carefully.

To prevent document jams, use the scanner glass for thick, thin or mixed paper- originals.
