	Some menus may not appear in the display depending on options or models. If so, it is not applicable to your machine (see Menu overview).

To change the menu options:

Press (Menu) > System Setup on the control panel.

Item

Description

Date & Time

Sets the date and time.

Clock Mode

Selects the format for displaying time between 12 hr and 24 hr.

Language

Sets the language of the text that appears on the control panel display.

Power Save

Sets how long the machine waits before going to power save mode.

When the machine does not receive data for an extended period of time, power consumption is automatically lowered.

Wakeup Event

When this option is On, you can wake up the machine from the power saving mode with the following actions:

Pressing any button on the control panel.
Loading paper in a tray.
Opening or closing the front cover.
Pulling a tray out or pushing a tray in.


	If the machine does not have the touch screen, you can wake up the machine from the power saving mode by pressing any button on the control panel regardless of this option’s setting.

Job Timeout

When there is no input for a certain period of time, the machine cancels the current job. You can set the amount of time the machine will wait before canceling the job.

Default Paper

Allows you to choose the default paper size.

Altitude Adj.

Optimize print quality according to the machine’s altitude (Altitude adjustment).

Humidity

Optimizes print quality according to the humidity in the environment.

Auto Continue

Determine whether or not the machine continues printing when it detects the paper does not match the paper settings.

Off: If a paper mismatch occurs, the machine waits until you insert the correct paper.
On: If a paper mismatch occurs, the device chooses the most appropriate paper size to print on and continues printing, even if it is on the wrong size. For example, letter sent but only legal available, so prints letter job on legal paper.

Auto Tray Swi.

Determine whether or not the machine continues printing when it detects the paper does not match. For example, if both tray 1 and tray 2 are filled with the same size paper, the machine automatically prints from tray 2 after the tray 1 runs out of paper.


	This option does not appear if you selected Auto for Paper Source from printer driver.

Paper Substit.

Automatically substitutes the printer driver’s paper size to prevent the paper mismatch between Letter and A4. For example, if you have A4 paper in the tray but you set the paper size to Letter in the printer driver, the machine prints on A4 paper and vice versa.

Tray Protect.

Decides to use or not use the Auto Tray Swi. feature. If you set tray 1 to on, for example, then tray 1 is excluded during tray switching.

Tray Mode

Specifies whether or not the machine automatically changes the paper settings to the required settings when you close the tray.

Static: The tray settings do not change when you open and close the tray.
Dynamic: If you open and close the tray when a paper mismatch occurs, the paper settings (size and type) for that tray automatically change to the settings required for the job. (When you open and close the tray in the Dynamic mode, the machine presumes that the paper in the tray was replaced with the size and type required for the job.)

SkipBlankPages

The printer detects the printing data from computer whether a page is empty or not. You can set to print or skip the blank page.

Maintenance

CLR Empty Msg.: This option appears only when toner cartridge is empty.
Supplies Life: Allows you to check how many pages are printed and how much toner is left in the cartridge.
TonerLow Alert: If toner in the cartridge has run out, a message informing the user to change the toner cartridge appears. You can set the option for this message to appear or not.
Image Mgr.: This menu allows you to adjust contrast.
RAM Disk: Enables/disables RAM disk to manage jobs.

Toner Save

Activating this mode extends the life of your toner cartridge and reduces your cost per page beyond what one would experience in the normal mode, but it reduces print quality.

Eco Settings

Allows you to save print resources and enables eco-friendly printing (see Eco printing).

Default Mode: Select whether to turn the Eco mode on or off.


	On Force: Sets the Eco mode on. If a user wants to turn the Eco mode off, the user needs to enter the password.

Select Temp.: Selects the eco template set from the SyncThru™ Web Service.

Vapor Mode

You can reduce the amount of water vapor produced during printing.

On: Enables vapor mode.
Off: Disables vapor mode.
Auto: Automatically enters vapor mode according to time in high humidity environments.


	Enabling the Vapor Mode option can make the printing speed slower.

Auto Power Off

Turns power off automatically when the machine has been in power save mode for the length of time set in Auto Power Off > On > Timeout.


	To turn the machine on again, press the (Power/Wakeup) button on the control panel. If you run the printer driver or Samsung Easy Printer Manager, the time automatically extends. While the machine is connected to the network or working on a print job, Auto Power Off feature doesn't work.

Quiet Mode

You can reduce the printing noise by turning this menu on. However the printing speed and quality maybe declined.

Stacking Mode

If you use a machine in a humid area, or you are using the damp print media caused by a high humidity, the print-outs on the output tray may be curled and may not be stacked properly. In this case, you can set the machine to use this function to let print-outs stacked firmly. But, using this function will make the print speed slow.

Smart Duplex

Uses simplex mode when printing only one original page or a blank page although the duplex option is enabled.
