Samsung CLP-315 system error

When the status LED is flashing red, it means there is some minor error(i.e. the front door isn't latched shut, paper is jammed, etc) or the toner is getting low.

Double click on Smart Panel (the blue S in the task bar...it's installed with the driver) and it will tell you what the error is. For future reference, you can download the manual at our support site: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/CLP-300

What does the Samsung Smart Panel say? It normally tells you what the problem is. Is the waste toner container full? If so, the printer does not work untill you empty it and put it back. You do not need to buy a new waste toner container. This is my third CLP-310/315 so I know what I´m talking about. The problem with the Samsung Smart Panel is that it uninstalls itself and the icon disappears and you must then ask the computer to repair it. When the Samsung Smart Panel is not working, of course you have no information about what is wrong in the printer. This has happened to me three times.

Hi,

you may want to run a repair on the printer driver. by going to windows START -> all programs -> Samsung CLP 310 -> Maintenece - > repair and follow the onscreen next till finish.

this could help some time when you swap USB cable or port or PCA main been replace or updated.

It is a color laser printer.it has 4 toner cartridge(1)black(2)magenta(3)cyan(4)yellow all cartridge is missing or toner finished.Please purchase full set toner.All toner cartridge has a image sensor.When toner is run out then it is out of work.

try to do this set of instruction & solution:

1. Go to Start | Control Panel | Printers And Other Hardware | Printers And Faxes. Double-click the icon for your printer to open the Documents window and clear any pending print jobs by selecting Cancel All Documents from the Printer drop-down menu
2. Try printing a test page from the printer, not from Windows XP. Most printers have a built-in test function that's activated by holding down one or more buttons while the printer is starting up. Check your printer's user manual for instructions. If this page prints successfully, you know the problem is either with your connection or with the software in your computer.
3. Check your printer's USB or parallel connection.
4. Try printing something simple from Windows' Notepad. To open Notepad, go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | Notepad, type a few lines of text in a document, and try printing it. If it successfully prints, the problem is with the software program you originally tried to print from.
5. Try printing using Windows XP's generic printer driver. Open and run the Add Printer Wizard. When you get to the Install Printer Software screen, select Generic under Manufacturer and Generic/Text Only under Printers (see Figure 2).
   
6. Select No for Do You Want To Use This Printer As The Default Printer? (see Figure 3). Click Next.
   
7. When prompted on the next screen, tell Windows XP to print a test page. If the page successfully prints, then you probably have a problem with your installed printer driver. Either update or reinstall the driver.
