Hi, either the drum or belt or both become defective.

Hi, faded strip or faint printing is cause by the drum as the toner distribution is uneven.

Back door wont close...just had this problem.... Look at the back of the printer and you will see a rod with two black pieces on it...it looks like the fins on the door will mesh with these pieces and close....but these are the problem. Gently pull on the rod and flip the black pieces down so the square tab on them is up and back. This meant pushing the black piece FRONT down on my printer. This spun the piece to the correct position. Repeat on the second black plastic piece on the rod and the door will close! How they got turned on the first place is a mystery to me! But this fixed my door closing problem!

Hi
Pleased check if the feeder (at the back cover) just in wrong position, turn it to the opposite way and he recommended that next time if the paper jam no need to open the back cover just turn the printer off and then turn it on, the paper will feed out. But it case you have done as he recommend and it still jam, open it would be possible. (the Feeder I'm not sure what it's call, it were 3 piece of black plastic)
Please accept the solution. Do get back to us for any query.

This is not a driver or Windows issue, has the ink cartridges been changed recently, it sounds like the the paper is not being magnetically charged before the ink, unplug the power cord for 30 sec plug back in and try printing again

Here is a link that should provide you step by step instructions on where and how to install/replace the ink cartridge for your specific printer:http://www.samsung.com/us/support/howtoguide/N0000190/9555/106472/

fuser needs to be replaced.

Probably needs a new fuser.

Check the driver settings to see if there is paper weight setting. Some printers need to know when they are asked to print on thicker or heavier sheets.

Can't believe the geniuses at Samsung didn't respond to this. I had the same problem and as usual, I started tinkering.  Two solutions: 1. Remove the used toner reservoir(located left on the toner cartridges...light grey, "L" shaped object) and discard(be environmentally aware).  Replace with new one. or 2. (My choice) Remove reservoir, empty contents carefully.  Wash thoroughly with cold water until water is clear.  Dry thoroughly with paper towel and blowdryer. Light must be clearly visible through the little magnifying bubble on the side. Works everytime.  Be patient. This takes about 5 minutes.  Can be very messy if you are not anally retentive as I am. :)  Al   

Open all cartridge and install again.If you not fix this problem reset your printer.Try to fix in any workshop.

Hi,

your paper feed pckup roller has already worn out. it got to replace to resolved this issue.

Open the doors to locate and wipe off the green shiny roller really well. Spin it and wipe it off all the way, especially on that right side. Pull out the cyan toner and wipe it around where the toner comes out. Check other rollers for blue marks and wipes those off as well. Lit free cloths work best but I just use a damp paper towel and then a dry one.
