The following steps are to show how to get to the engineers screen to allow you to reset the counters for Tray 1 pickup roller and fuser etc. Reset Counters for Samsung CLX-6220 - Printers & Scanners - Spiceworks.
I've been struggling with paper misfeeds (roller picks up sheet but it does not feed into the print path, printer shuts down) for months. I've cleaned the pick-up rollers with alcohol, have switched paper stock several times, try a nearly-full paper tray and a half-full and quarter full paper tray. Each solution seems to work for a while, then the problem starts again. This printer was manufactured in 2003. Other than this problem, I love it and hate to give up on it, but is it time to let go and buy a new one.
Or is there a reasonable solution I haven't tried yet. It didn't cost a whole lot when I bought it and replacing it would not be expensive either, so that's not much of an issue. I want to make a decision before I have to replace the toner cartridge, which is kind of pricey. There is a product called, 'rubber rejuvenator' that cleans rubber wheels and such. Beware it is a strong cleaner and attacks plastic. Find it at office supply or computer shops, etc., or google online. I also suggest you never use alcohol again as a cleaner, it dries out the rubber and defeats the purpose over time.
If possible, you may need a service kit, but at what cost. Its cheaper to buy another plain B&W printer unless you want color now. Anyways, a printer after X-yrs. Will exhibit your problems.tada -Willy.
Carolyn Hardy, I checked the service manual and do not see much in the way of adjustments. You can download it from.
Seems like there are a few other reasons that could do that. First of all I want to appologize for not answering sooner. I thought any answers to my question would be forwarded to me. Now I know I have to come back to the website. Thank you for your answers I will check them out and see if I am able to do them. I had the service manual for this printer already but as I recall when I tried to read it I got a headache.
Your answer is much easier to understand so with that I will try the manual again. Thank you for the link to the other page as well.by.
