SELECTING PRINT MEDIA

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes,

labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meets the

guidelines for use with your machine. 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.

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.

The illustrations of the machine are based on ML-2240 series. ML-1640 series does not have a manual tray.

• 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 Samsung has no control.

• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that

meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.

Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause

problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by

Samsung’s warranty or service agreements.
