Hi,

it is most likely that the fuser actuater arm is not sitting back to the sensor properly. open the back door you will be able to see the fuser, on your right hand side you should be able to see a fliper that sit in between a sensor. try to adjust the fliper flag and see if it works.

if it still continue to give you the same error. try remove the fuser four screw 2 side on each. adjust the flag again and fix it back. it should work and double check for any lose small pices of paper jam in the printer.

On a clx-6200 message says "paper jam 0-c=open/close door. what door is this?

It is telling you that there is a paper jam. Open the door, pull the jammed paper out, close the door, it should clear the message.

My samsung clx 3160fn prints with a faded streak in the center of the paper

There is some-thing that is dirty that is making contact with the paper.

My guess is a roller or a little metal guide wheel or the like.

Clean it with tissue paper.

Use the already printed page to line up to see where about the source of the line is comming from.

Till next time!

Fine horizontal dashes in black have begun appearing all over the pages whether I print in b&w or color. This gets worse with each page in a long document. Samsung CLX-3160.

Your problem is the black toner cartridge pickup drum has become scratched and is depositing "extra" black toner onto the paper prior to the fuser roller. you need to replace the drum and all should be ok then

Samsung clx-3160fn won't print

Usually I've seen that happen when you use generic toners. There are 4 toner clutches down the right side, with the right cover off you can see which clutch is doing the grinding. Many of the generics are overfilled and hard to turn and will make the noise until you loosen them by hand turning them til they loosen up, or just replacing.

CLX - 3160FN

Look under the flatbed (do not take anything apart) just look where the paper comes out when you print...you will see a green switch on the left, push or pull it, this is the scanner lock...I am guessing it is for transportation purposes...I had the same problem and this was the fix...Good luck
