Dear
The red light blinks for many reasons. You may try to know exact problem with the use of SMART PANEL a software that can downloaded from samsung web site and install in the PC.
After installing the software get a test print. or open the smart panel from the program.
thanks.
When you installed the Samsung CLP-300 printer software, a utility called Smart Panel should have been installed too - this shows the current status of the printer plus gives access to a Troubleshooting Guide and settings for both the Printer and the Driver as shown in the image below:
Go to this link and download the print driver, scan driver and smart panel drivers indicated for windows xp, Vista, Windows 7 . Click on the title of each driver and download. Then double click each file to begin install. I hope that helps.
When you installed the printer drivers and software, you should have installed the "Smart Panel" software. If you did, a blue S-shaped icon should be in the right end of the menu bar. Left-click on that icon and select "Smart Panel." If the printer is turned on and connected, the Smart Panel will automatically display the levels of the four toner cartridges.
If it is installed, the Smart Panel normally is displayed in the lower-right-hand corner of the screen whenever the printer starts a print job, and is removed when the job ends.
Dear
Install a smart panel software from website or Disk and update us exact error displayed on the Printer as well as on the computer smart panel we will advise accordingly
the yellow and blue cartridges are almost empty.go to samsung web site and download smart panet to pc.after installing smart panel reboot with printer connected to pc,the red status will be determined.smart panel will diagnose problem with printer.
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
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.
Check your printer's USB or parallel connection.
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.
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).
Select No for Do You Want To Use This Printer As The Default Printer? (see Figure 3). Click Next.
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.
