Improper installation may damage this product. Please note the following during initial installation and whenever the
machine is moved.
1.The machine should be installed near an
accessible power outlet for easy connection.
2.Be sure to connect the power cord only to a
power outlet that meets the specified voltage and
current requirements. Also make certain the
outlet is properly grounded.
For the power supply requirements, see the
name plate on the back of the main unit.
3.Do not install your machine in areas that are:
damp, humid, or very dusty
exposed to direct sunlight
poorly ventilated
subject to extreme temperature or humidity
changes, e.g., near an air conditioner or heater.
4.Be sure to allow the required space around the
machine for servicing and proper ventilation.
A small amount of ozone is produced within the printer during operation. The emission level is insufficient to cause
any health hazard.
NOTE:
The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m3) calculated as an 8 hr. time-
weighted average concentration.
However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the copier
in a ventilated area.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a SHARP digital multifunction copier.
Please read this manual before using the machine. In particular, be sure to read "INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS"
before using the machine.
Please keep this manual close at hand for reference whenever necessary.
This manual provides general information on using the machine, such as routine maintenance and how to load paper
and remove misfeeds. It also explains how to use the copier and document filing functions.
Separate manuals have been provided for the fax function, printer function, and network scanner function.
Original and paper sizes
This machine allows use of standard sizes in both the AB and inch systems.
These are shown in the tables below.
The meaning of "R" in original and paper size indications
Some original and paper sizes can be placed in either the portrait or landscape orientations. To differentiate
between landscape and portrait, the landscape orientation size indication will contain an "R". These are indicated
as A4R, B5R, 8-1/2" x 11"R, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2"R, etc. Sizes that can be placed only in the landscape orientation (A3,
B4, 11" x 17", 8-1/2" x 14", 8-1/2" x 13") do not contain the "R" in their size indication.

Energy saving features
This product has the following two power reducing modes that conform to the
Energy Star guidelines to help conserve natural resources and reduce
environmental pollution.
Preheat mode
The preheat mode is the first level of power reduction. The power is reduced
to the fuser unit a preset time after the machine has completed a job and no
further machine operations have been performed. The machine can recover
to the ready condition within a short period of time. The preset time to enter
the mode can be set by a administrator settings.
Auto power shut-off mode
The auto power shut-off mode is the second level of power reduction. In this mode power is shut off to the
fusing unit and the touch panel. In this state more energy is saved than in the preheat mode but the time to
recover to the ready condition will be longer. The preset time to enter this mode can be set by a administrator
settings.
When this product is used as a printer, and either of the above modes is active, the mode will be deactivated
automatically by an incoming job and the machine will automatically warm up and start to print when it has
reached the ready temperature.
When this product is configured for multi-function operation, and either of the above modes is active, the mode
will be deactivated as above by an incoming print job. Either mode will also be deactivated by operation of
DOCUMENT FILING, IMAGE SEND or COPY mode key.
Products that have earned
the ENERGY STAR® are
designed to protect the
environment through
superior energy efficiency.

Important points when using the
bypass tray
Be sure to load A5 paper, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" paper,
and postcards as shown (1) horizontal loading in
the diagram below.
(1):Horizontal loading
(2):Vertical loading
When loading plain paper other than SHARP
standard paper, special media other than
postcards, SHARP-recommended transparency
film, or paper to be printed on the back, the
paper must be loaded one sheet at a time.
Loading more than one sheet at a time will cause
misfeeds.
Before loading heavy paper, straighten any
curling in the paper.
When adding paper, remove any paper
remaining in the tray, combine it with the paper to
be added, and reload as a single stack.
Do not use paper that has already been printed
on by a plain paper fax machine or a laser
printer. This may cause printed images to
become dirty.
When printing on transparency film, be sure to
remove each sheet as it exits the machine.
Allowing sheets to stack in the output tray may
cause curling.
Use only Sharp-recommended transparency
film. Transparency film should be loaded in the
bypass tray with the label facing down and the
film oriented vertically. Smudging and a dirty
image may result if the film is placed with the
label facing up.
When loading multiple sheets of transparency
film in the bypass tray, be sure to fan the sheets
several times before loading.
Use only tabbed sheets that are made of paper.
Tabbed sheets made of film or other material
cannot be used.

REPLACING THE TONER CARTRIDGES
When toner runs low, a message will appear to inform you that the toner cartridge must be replaced.
Follow the steps below to replace the toner cartridge.
1Open the front cover.
2Remove the toner cartridge gently.
Hold the toner cartridge
with both hands as
shown in the illustration,
and pull it out of the
machine.
3Remove the new toner cartridge from the
box and shake it five or six times
horizontally.
Shake the toner
cartridge horizontally.
Do not rotate it as shown
at left.
4Insert the new toner cartridge.
Align the toner cartridge
with the insert hole and
push it in as shown.
Do not rotate the
cartridge.
5Push the cartridge in until it locks securely
in place.
6Close the front cover.
NOTE
To view the approximate amount of toner remaining, hold down the [COPY] key during printing or when the
machine is on standby. The percentage of toner remaining will appear in the display while you hold down the key.
When the percentage falls to "20-0%" , obtain a new toner cartridge and keep it ready for replacement.
NOTE
Shake the toner
cartridge well to
ensure that the toner
flows well and will not
stick to the inside of
the cartridge.
CAUTION
Do not throw the toner cartridge into a fire. Toner may fly and cause burns.
Store toner cartridges out of the reach of small children.
NOTE
Place the used toner cartridge in the plastic bag and store it. When placing the toner cartridge in the bag, insert
it horizontally, not vertically. If the cartridge is stood on end, the collected used toner may spill out and soil the floor
or your clothes.
2-22
STORAGE OF SUPPLIES
Standard supplies for this product that can replaced by the user include paper, toner cartridges, and staple cartridges
for the finisher.
Proper storage
1. Store the supplies in a location that is:
clean and dry,
at a stable temperature,
not exposed to direct sunlight.
2. Store paper in the wrapper and lying flat.
3. Paper stored in packages standing up or out of
the wrapper may curl or become damp, resulting
in paper misfeeds.
4. Store a new toner cartridge box horizontally. Do
not store it standing on end. If stored standing on
end, the toner may not distribute well even after
shaking the cartridge vigorously, and will remain
inside the cartridge without flowing out.
For best copying results, be sure to use only Sharp Genuine Supplies which are designed,
engineered, and tested to maximize the life and performance of Sharp products. Look for
the Genuine Supplies label on the toner package.
GENUINE SUPPLIES
Supply and Consumables

FINISHER AND SADDLE STITCH FINISHER
The finisher and the saddle stitch finisher include the offset function, which offsets each set of copies from the
preceding set for easy separation. Each set of sorted copies can also be stapled. The saddle stitch finisher can
automatically staple a set of copies at the centre line and fold the pages to create a pamphlet.
A punch module unit can be installed to add punch holes to copies, and an inserter can be installed to insert blank
pages at specified pages.
In the following explanations, the finisher and saddle stitch finisher are referred to simply as "finisher".

Original orientation when using the staple sort or punch function
When using the staple sort or punch function, the original must be placed in the following orientations to enable
stapling or punching in the desired position on the paper.
Saddle stitch function (only saddle stitch finisher)
The saddle stitch finisher can automatically place
two staples for centreline binding of prints or copies
and fold them along the centreline.
Hole punching (only if a punch module is installed)
When the optional punch module is installed, holes
can be punched in printed pages. (When using the
saddle stitch finisher, pamphlet style stapling and
the punch function cannot be used together.) When
using the punch function, automatic rotation of the
original image does not operate.
For the allowed paper sizes for punching, see the
specifications on page 3-3.
When using the punch function in copy mode,
place the original with the top toward the inside of
the machine. If the original is not placed in this
orientation, punching will not take place at the
correct positions. (See "Standard original
placement orientations" on page 4-4.)

SHARP OSA
Sharp OSA (Open Systems Architecture) is an architecture that enables external applications to be directly
connected to a digital multifunction machine over a network.
When a digital multifunction machine that supports Sharp OSA is used, the operation panel controls and functions
of the machine such as scan send can be linked to an external application.
There are two types of external applications: "standard application" and "external account application". An "external
account application" is used for centralized account management of a multifunction machine on a network. A
"standard application" refers to all other applications.
APPLICATION COMMUNICATION
MODULE (MX-AMX2)
The application communication module is required to use a "standard application" on the machine.
When a previously registered standard application is selected in the Web pages of the machine, the machine
retrieves the operation screen from the registered URL. Control of the operation screen is performed by the standard
application, and Scan to FTP can be executed.
Standard application setup
To register a standard application in the machine's Web pages, click [External Applications] in the administrator menu
frame and then click [Standard Applications]. Configure settings for the standard application in the screen that
appears.
Selecting a standard application
There are two methods for selecting a standard application that has been registered in the machine's Web pages.
Selecting a standard application from the job status screen
The Sharp OSA icon will appear in the lower left-hand corner of the job status screen. Follow the steps below to
select a standard application.
1Touch the Sharp OSA icon.
If no standard
applications have been
stored in the Web pages,
the key cannot be
touched.
2Select the standard application.
If two or more standard
applications have been
stored in the Web pages,
the screen to select the
standard application will
appear. Touch the
standard application that
you wish to use.
If only one standard application has been stored in
the Web pages, connection to the standard
application will begin.
3The machine connects to the standard
application.
The message "Connecting to the external
application." appears while the machine
communicates with the standard application.

Selecting the standard application from document filing mode
The [Sharp OSA] key appears in the upper right-hand corner of the document filing screen. Follow the steps
below to select a standard application.
1Touch the [Sharp OSA] key.
If no standard
applications have been
stored in the Web pages,
the key cannot be
touched.
2Select the standard application.
If one or more standard
applications have been
stored in the Web pages,
the screen to select the
standard application will
appear. Touch the
standard application that
you wish to use.
If only one standard application has been stored in
the Web pages, connection to the standard
application will begin.
3The machine connects to the standard
application.
The message "Connecting to the external
application." appears while the machine
communicates with the standard application.
Operation in OSA mode
When the application communication module is installed, it is possible to check the job log of OSA scan mode in the
job status screen. The procedure for displaying the job log is the same as for regular Scan to FTP.
To display the job log of OSA scan mode, touch the [SCAN] key once again while the job log of scan mode appears
in the job status screen. (When this is done, the name of the key will change to [OSA SCAN].) To return to the scan
screen from the OSA scan screen, touch the [OSA SCAN] key.

EXTERNAL ACCOUNT MODULE (MX-AMX3)
The external account module is required to use a "external account application" on the machine.
An external account application can be used in "external authentication mode" or "external count mode". When
external authentication mode is used, the login screen is retrieved from the application when the machine is started.
When a job ends, a job notification screen is sent to the application to enable counts to be kept for each authenticated
user.
When "external count mode" is used, the login screen is not displayed when the machine is started. Only a job result
notification is sent to the application. User authentication by the external account application cannot be used,
however, the external account application can be used in combination with the internal account function.
External account application setup
To register an external account application in the machine's Web pages, click [External Applications] in the
administrator menu frame and then click [External Accounting]. Configure settings for the external account
application in the screen that appears. To make the settings in the Web page take effect, restart the machine.
Operation in external account mode
The two modes for using an external account application operate as explained below.
External authentication mode
When the [ENABLE AUTHENTICATION BY EXTERNAL SERVER] checkbox is selected in "External account
setting" of "Sharp OSA settings" in the administrator settings, the machine enters external authentication mode.
When the machine is powered on in external authentication mode, the machine accesses the external account
application and displays the login screen. The login screen also appears when the [CALL] key is touched to run
a job in the job status complete screen. (The login screen does not appear if the user has already logged in by
the normal method.)
The [JOB STATUS] key can be pressed while the login screen appears to show the job status screen. To return
to the previous state, press the mode select key.
External count mode
When only the [ENABLE EXTERNAL ACCOUNT CONTROL] setting is enabled in "External account setting" of
"Sharp OSA settings" in the administrator settings, the machine enters external count mode.
Unlike external authentication mode, when the machine is started in "external count mode", the login screen of
the external account application is not displayed. Only the job result is sent to the external account application.
External count mode can be used together with the user control function of the machine. (External count mode
can also be used when the user control function is disabled.)
NOTES
The user control function of the machine cannot be used in external authentication mode.
The [SYSTEM SETTINGS] key can be pressed while the login screen appears to show the system settings
screen. To return to the initial state, touch the [EXIT] key.
If login fails
If the login screen fails to appear or the application does not operate correctly, the machine may also stop operating
correctly. In this event, it is recommended that you quit external account mode from the Web pages of the machine.
For more information, see [Help] in the Web pages.
If it is necessary to forcibly terminate external account mode using the operation panel of the machine, follow the
steps below.
Press the [SYSTEM SETTINGS] key and change "External account setting" in the administrator settings (see page
14 of the administrator settings guide). After changing the setting, restart the machine.

AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER
The automatic document feeding function automatically feeds originals into the machine, making continuous copying
possible. In addition, both sides of two-sided sheet originals can be simultaneously scanned. This function is
convenient when you have a large number of original pages to scan.
Acceptable originals
Up to 150 originals (80 g/m2 (20 lbs.)) of the same size, or an overall stack height of no more than 19.5 mm (49/64"),
can be loaded. Originals of mixed length can also be loaded together as long as they are the same width; however,
some special functions may not operate correctly.
Size and weight of acceptable
originals
Total number of originals that can be
set in the document feeder tray
Maximum of 150 sheets (80 g/m2 (20 lbs.)) or
total stack height of 19.5 mm (49/64") or less.
Notes on use of the automatic document feeder
Use originals within the specified size and weight ranges. Use of originals out of the specified range may cause
an original misfeed.
Before loading originals into the document feeder tray, be sure to remove any staples or paper clips.
If originals have damp spots from correction fluid, ink or glue from pasteups, be sure they are dried before they
are fed. If not, the interior of the document feeder or the document glass may be soiled.
Do not use the following originals. These originals may cause incorrect original size detection, original
misfeeds, and smudges on copies.
Transparency film, tracing paper, carbon paper, thermal paper or originals printed with thermal transfer ink
ribbon should not be fed through the document feeder. Originals to be fed through the feeder should not be
damaged, crumpled or folded or have loosely pasted paper on them or cutouts in them. Originals with multiple
punched holes other than two-hole or three-hole punched paper may not feed correctly.
When using originals with two or three holes, place them so that the
punched edge is at a position other than the feed slot.

Standard original placement orientations
Place originals in the
document feeder tray or on
the document glass so that
the top and bottom of the
original is positioned as
shown in the illustration. If not,
staples will be incorrectly
positioned and some special
features may not give the
expected result.
Automatic copy image rotation - rotation copying
If the orientation of the originals and copy paper are different, the original image will be automatically rotated 90°
and copied. (When an image is rotated, a message will be displayed.) If a function is selected that is not suitable
for rotation, such as enlarging the copy to greater than A4 (8-1/2" x 11") size or staple sorting with the saddle
stitch finisher, rotation will not be possible.
[Example]
This function operates in both the auto paper select or auto image mode. ("Rotation copy setting" can be
disabled in the administrator settings. See page 16 of the administrator settings guide.)

CHECKING THE SIZE OF A PLACED
ORIGINAL
If the placed original is a standard size, the size will be automatically
detected (automatic original detection function) and displayed in the touch
panel. Make sure that the correct size has been detected.

(B) :[AUTO] appears when the automatic original detection function is
operating.
If you have loaded a non-standard size original or wish to change the
scanning size, you can follow the steps below to manually set the original
scanning size. (For the standard sizes, see "Original size detection
function" on page 4-3.)
Manually setting the scanning size
If you load an original that is not a standard size (such as an INCH size), or if the size is not detected correctly, you
must touch the [ORIGINAL] key and set the original size manually. Perform the following steps after placing the
document in the automatic document feeder or on the document glass.
1Touch the [ORIGINAL] key.
2Touch the desired original size key.
[AUTO] is no longer
highlighted. [MANUAL]
and the original size key
you touched are
highlighted.
If you wish to select an INCH size, touch
the [AB/INCH] key and then touch the
desired original size key.
[INCH] is highlighted
and INCH size keys are
displayed. To return to
the AB palette, touch the
[AB/INCH] key once
again.
If a non-standard size original is placed in
the document feeder or on the document
glass, touch the [SIZE INPUT] tab and then
enter the X (width) and Y (length)
dimensions of the original.
X is initially selected.
Enter the X dimension
(width) and then touch
the Y( ) key and enter
the Y dimension (length).
X can be from 64 to 432
mm, and Y can be from
64 to 297 mm.
If you frequently use originals that are the same
non-standard size, you can store the size as
explained in "STORING, DELETING, AND USING
ORIGINAL SIZES"on the following page. This will
save you the trouble of manually entering the size
each time you use that original size.
3Touch the [OK] key.
You will return to the initial screen.

Tandem copy
Two machines connected to the same network can be used to run a large copy job in parallel.
By dividing the job in half, approximately half the time is required to complete the job.
To use this function, two machines must be connected to your network as network printers. Even if more machines
are connected to the network, this function can only be used to have one other machine share a job.
Server machine and client machine
In the following explanations, the machine on which
the copy job is initially set up and tandem copy
selected is called the server machine. The other
machine that is asked to share the job is called the
client machine.
To use the tandem copy function, the tandem
settings must be configured in the administrator
settings. (See page 14 of the "Administrator settings
guide")
When configuring the tandem settings in the server
machine, the IP address of the client machine must
be entered. For the port number, it is best to use the
initial setting (50001). Unless you experience
difficulty with this setting, do not change it. The
tandem settings should be configured by your
network administrator. If the server and client
machines will alternate server and client roles, the IP
address of the server machine must also be entered
in the client machine.The same port number can be
set in both machines.
1Touch the [TANDEM COPY] key on the
special modes screen.
The [TANDEM COPY]
key will be highlighted to
indicate that the function
is turned on, and the
tandem copy icon ( )
will appear in the upper
left of the screen.
2Touch the [OK] key on the special modes
screen.
You will return to the
main screen of copy
mode.
3Set the number of copies with the numeric
keys.
Up to 999 copies can be
set. When the [START]
key is pressed, the
copies will automatically
be divided between the
server and client
machines. If an odd
number of copies is set, the server machine will
make the extra set.

NOTES
To perform tandem copying, the server machine
and client machine must meet certain conditions.
After the [START] key is pressed on the server
machine, the server machine verifies that the
conditions have been met. If the conditions have
not been met, tandem copying does not begin
and "TANDEM OUTPUT IS NOT ALLOWED.
OUTPUT ALL SETS USING MASTER
MACHINE?" appears in the display. To have the
server machine make all the copies, touch the
[OK] key. To cancel the job, touch the [CANCEL]
key.
As an example, the following conditions must
be met when a staple finisher is installed on the
server machine and not on the client machine:
(1) If tandem copying is executed for a two-
sided copy job with the number of copies
set to 999 and "Non-staple" is selected,
tandem copying will take place.
(2) If tandem copying is executed for a two-
sided copy job with the number of copies
set to 999 and "Staple" is selected,
tandem copying will not take place
because the client machine does not have
a finisher.
After the [START] key is pressed, if the client
machine cannot print because it is out of paper or
other reason, the server machine will print its half
of the job. The other half of the job will be stored in
the client machine and the job will be printed when
the client machine is able to print.
If auditing mode is enabled on both the server and
client machines, the same account number must
be entered on both machines.
If auditing mode is enabled on the client machine
but not on the server machine, tandem copying
cannot be performed.
To cancel the tandem copy function, touch the
[TANDEM COPY] key on the special modes screen
(step 1). The highlighted display will be cancelled.

Covers/inserts
A different type of paper can be inserted in positions corresponding to front and back covers of a copy job when the
automatic document feeding function is used. A different type of paper can also be automatically added as an insert
at specified pages.
As an example, tabbed paper can be added as inserts at the beginning of chapters or at other pages to create an
indexed document.
Covers/inserts can be disabled in the administrator settings (page 11 of the administrator settings guide).

About the explanations of covers and
inserts
There are various ways of using covers and inserts.
To keep the explanations simple, covers and inserts
are explained separately. The procedure for
inserting covers is explained on page 5-13. The
procedure for adding inserts is explained on page 5-
14. After reading these explanations, see the
examples of using covers and inserts on pages 5-
17 to 5-22.
Preparations for using covers and inserts
Load the cover/insert paper in the tray before using the cover/insert function.
Use the same size of paper for the covers/inserts as for the copies. (For the procedures for loading paper, see
pages 2-2 to 2-17.)
Before selecting the cover/insert function, place the originals in the document feeder, select one-sided or two-
sided copying, and select the number of copies and any other desired copy settings as explained on pages 4-
7 to 4-10. When these settings have been completed, perform the procedure to select covers/inserts on the
following page.
The original must be scanned from the document feeder. The document glass cannot be used.
Tabbed paper can be used for cover/ inserts, however, two-sided copying cannot be performed on the tabbed
paper. Tabbed paper can be fed from the bypass tray, tray 3, and the inserter. The other trays cannot be used.
Up to 100 covers/inserts can be inserted. Two covers/inserts cannot be inserted between the same pages.
Pamphlet copying cannot be used in combination with covers/inserts.
When performing two-sided copying of two-sided originals, an insert cannot be added between the front and
back sides of an original page.

Printing the page number on copies
The page number can be printed on copies. One of 6 formats can be selected for the page number.
1Follow steps 1 and 2 of "Common
operation procedure for using the print
menu" (page 5-33).
2Touch the [PAGE NUMBERING] key.
3Select the page number format.
The selected format is
highlighted.
If you selected "1/5, 2/5, 3/5",
"PAGE NUMBER/TOTAL PAGES" will be printed.
"AUTO" is initially selected for "TOTAL PAGE",
which means that the number of scanned original
pages is automatically used. If you need to enter
the total pages manually (for example, when a
large number of originals are scanned in batches),
touch the [MANUAL] key to display the total page
entry screen.
Enter the total pages (1 to 999) with the numeric
keys and touch the [OK] key.
4
If you need to change the starting or ending
number of page numbering, the first page
printed on, or the print settings for covers/
inserts, touch the [PAGE NUMBER] key.
5Touch the [MANUAL] key.
6Enter settings for "FIRST NUMBER",
"LAST NUMBER", and "PRINTING
STARTS FROM SHEET".
Touch each key so that
it is highlighted, and
then enter the number
with the numeric keys
(1 to 999).
To return a number to
its initial value (FIRST
NUMBER: 1, LAST NUMBER: AUTO, PRINTING
STARTS FROM SHEET: 1), touch the [C] (clear)
key while the key of the number is highlighted. If
you enter the wrong number, press the [C] (clear)
key and enter the correct number.
NOTES
When two-sided copying is performed, each side of
the paper is counted as a page. If the last page is
blank, it will not be included in the total pages.
However, if [COUNT BACK COVER] is selected,
the last page will be counted. (See step 7.)
When used in combination with "Dual page copy",
"Multi shot", or "Card shot", the number of copied
images is the total pages.
When used in combination with "Pamphlet copy" or
"Book copy", the number of pages in the "book" is
the total pages.

NOTES
A last number smaller than the "FIRST NUMBER"
cannot be set.
"LAST NUMBER" is initially set to "AUTO", which
means that the page number is printed on each
page through the final page in accordance with the
"FIRST NUMBER" and "PRINTING STARTS
FROM SHEET" settings.
A number less than the total page number is set as
the last number, the page number will not be
printed on the pages that follow the set number.
Unlike the first and last page numbers, "PRINTING
STARTS FROM SHEET" specifies the sheet of paper
(not the page number) from which printing of the page
number begins.
For example, when "3" is selected for one-sided
copying, printing of the page number will start from the
3rd sheet of copy paper (the copy of the 3rd original
page). When "3" is selected for two-sided copying,
printing of the page number will start from the 3rd sheet
of copy paper, which is the copy of the 5th original page.

NOTES
When an item is selected, one inserted sheet (front
cover, insert, or back cover) is counted as one page
during one-sided copying, and two pages during
two-sided copying. However, if one-sided copying
is used for the body pages and two-sided copying is
used for the inserted sheets, each body page will
be counted as one page and each inserted sheet
will be counted as two pages.
Printing never takes place on the front cover and back
cover, regardless of whether or not these are counted.
To print on an insert, the insert must be counted
and it must be copied on.

NOTES
Copying in group mode is not possible when page number printing is selected. The mode will automatically switch to sort mode.
When the page number print position is set to the left or right side and "Pamphlet copy" or "Book copy" is
selected, the position of the page numbers will alternate so that they are always on the outside when the
pamphlet/book is opened. If a stamp is set in an area with a page numbering setting, the position of the stamp
will alternate in the same way.
If another item is set in a position that changes, that item will appear in the position that alternates with the page
number position.
Print menus not related to the alternating print positions will appear in their set positions.
[Example] When the page number format "1, 2, 3.." is selected when performing pamphlet copying of 4 pages,
the copies will appear as shown below.
In this example, the page number is at the bottom of the page and the date is at the top, so the
position of the date does not change.

OVERVIEW
Document filing function
The document filing function allows you to save a document image in the machine's hard disk as a data file. The
image can be called up and printed or transmitted as needed.
The scanned document image is saved when printing or transmitting a document in copy mode, printer mode, or
image send mode ("QUICK FILE" or "FILE"). A document can also be scanned and saved without being printed,
copied, or transmitted ("scan save").
To allow you to search for the file and call it up, names (user name, file name, etc.) can be assigned to the file (except
when using Quick File).

OVERVIEW

Quick File folder
When [QUICK FILE FOLDER] is selected in the main screen of any of the modes, the file is saved in this folder.
Up to 1000 files can be saved in the Quick File folder. All files in the Quick File Folder can be deleted using the
administrator settings. If you have a file that you do not want deleted, set the file attribute to [PROTECT] (up to 500
files can be protected). (See [Property change] on page 7-21)
The following user and file names are automatically assigned (the names cannot be selected):
User name : User unknown
File name (example) : COPY_04042010_113050AM (job mode and month, day, year, hour, minute, second, AM/
PM of save). (In the example, the file was saved on 4/4/2010 at 11:30 and 50 sec in copy mode.)
When saved, jobs are classified by mode. A saved job can be called up from the COMPLETE job status screen.
Main folder
When saving a file, a previously stored user name (see [SYSTEM SETTINGS] on page 7-24) can be specified and
any file name can be assigned.
A password can also be set for a saved file ([CONFIDENTIAL] save). (See [Property change] on page 7-21.)
If a user name and file name are not selected, a name in the same format as Quick File is automatically assigned.
Custom folder
Up to 500 folders (named as desired) can be created in this folder. When saving a file in one of these folders, a
previously stored user name (see [SYSTEM SETTINGS] on page 7-24) can be specified and any file name can be
assigned.
A password can be set for a file saved in one of these folders.
Attributes of saved files
The protect setting can be selected for files saved with the document filing function. This prevents a file from being
moved or automatically or manually deleted.
Three attributes are available for saved files: [SHARING], [PROTECT], and [CONFIDENTIAL]. When saved with
the [SHARING] attribute, a file is not protected. When saved with the [PROTECT] or [CONFIDENTIAL] attribute, a
file is protected.
Files saved to the Quick File folder are all [SHARING]. When saving a file to the main folder or a custom folder,
[SHARING] or [CONFIDENTIAL] can be selected.
A [SHARING] file can be changed to a [PROTECT]
or [CONFIDENTIAL]
file using
[Property change] (page 7-21).
A password is set for a [CONFIDENTIAL] file to protect it. (The password must be entered to call up the file.)
A password cannot be set for a [PROTECT] file, however, as long as the file is not changed to [SHARING] with
[PROPERTY CHANGE], the file will be protected.
CAUTION
Documents saved with [QUICK FILE] are shared files that can be called up by anyone and printed or transmitted. For this
reason, do not use Quick File for sensitive documents or documents that you do not want to be reused by others.
When saving a document with [FILE], set the attribute to [CONFIDENTIAL] and set a password to prevent others from
reusing the document.
Even when a file is saved with the [CONFIDENTIAL] attribute, the attribute can be changed afterward to [SHARING] using
[Property change] (page 7-21). For this reason, do not save sensitive documents or documents that you do not want to be
reused by others.
Except in cases provided for by law, SHARP Corporation bears no responsibility for any damages that result from the
leaking of sensitive information due to 1) manipulation by a third party of any data saved using the Quick File function or
filing function, or 2) incorrect operation of the Quick File function or filing function by the operator that saves the data.

TROUBLESHOOTING
This section explains problems frequently encountered when using the document filing function. If you experience
any difficulty, refer to the following table. For information on general machine problems, printer problems, fax
problems, and network scanner problems, please see the troubleshooting sections of the appropriate manuals.
Problem Check Cause and solution
A saved file has
disappeared.
Was the file called up and then printed by
touching the [PRINT AND DELETE THE
DATA] key?
A file that is printed using the [PRINT AND
DELETE THE DATA] key is automatically
deleted after being printed. To print a file
without deleting it, use the [PRINT AND
SAVE THE DATA] key.
A file cannot be
deleted.
Is the file's attribute set to [PROTECT]? A file cannot be deleted when its attribute is
set to [PROTECT]. Change the attribute to
[SHARING] and then delete the file.
A file's attribute
cannot be set to
[CONFIDENTIAL].
Is the file in the main or custom folder? A file in the Quick File folder cannot be set to
[CONFIDENTIAL]. Move the file to a
different folder or set it to [PROTECT].
A file's attribute
cannot be changed
to [PROTECT].
Is the file set to [CONFIDENTIAL]? A file cannot be simultaneously set to
[CONFIDENTIAL] and [PROTECT]. If set to
[CONFIDENTIAL], use [PROPERTY
CHANGE] (page 7-21) to change the
attribute to [PROTECT].
A name in the Quick
File folder is cut off.
Was the name programmed in the advanced
transmission settings?
If the name was programmed in the
advanced transmission settings before the
file was saved in the Quick File folder, that
name will be used. However, if the name is
longer than the maximum name length of the
Quick File folder (30 characters), the excess
characters will be discarded.
Resolution settings
are not possible.
Was the file saved at low resolution? A saved file cannot be transmitted at a
resolution higher than the resolution at
which it was saved.
A file name cannot
be stored or
changed.
Have you entered prohibited characters in
the file name?
Certain characters (symbols) cannot be
used in file names. See "ENTERING
CHARACTERS" (entering numbers and
symbols) on page 7-29.
A custom folder
name cannot be
stored or changed.
Have you entered prohibited characters in
the folder name?
Certain characters (symbols) cannot be
used in folder names. See "ENTERING
CHARACTERS" (entering numbers and
symbols) on page 7-29.
The printing speed
of a saved file is
slow.
The file was saved using one of the following
resolution settings:
200 x 200 dpi resolution.
STANDARD (200 x 100 dpi) or FINE (200
x 200 dpi)
When a file is saved using one of the
resolutions setting at left, the printing speed
will be slower than when other resolution
settings are used.
Black dots appear
when a file that was
saved with the
document filing
function is printed.
Was the file saved at other than the following
resolutions?
600x600dpi
600x600dpi and HALF TONE
To check the resolution of the saved file,
touch the [DETAIL] key in step 5 on page 7-
16.
This problem can be alleviated by setting the
resolution to 600x600dpi when saving a file
with scan save. The problem can be further
alleviated by selecting HALF TONE after
setting the resolution to 600x600dpi, as light
images will be printed lightly.

Required in IEC-950 (EN 60 950) - Europe
• The equipment should be installed near an accessible socket outlet for easy disconnection.
Required in Appendix ZB of BS 7002 (En 60 950) — United Kingdom
MAINS PLUG WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
The mains lead of this equipment is already fitted with a mains plug which is either a non-rewireable
(moulded) or a rewireable type. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved fuse
to BS1362 marked or and of the same rating as the one removed from the plug must
be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse on the moulded plug. Never use the plug without
the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied
either cut-off the moulded plug (if this type is fitted) or remove by undoing the screws if a rewireable
plug is fitted and fit an appropriate type observing the wiring code below.
DANGER: The fuse should be removed from the cut-off plug and the plug destroyed immediately
and disposed of in a safe manner. Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted
elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
GREEN-AND-YELLOW: Earth
BLUE: Neutral
BROWN: Live
As the colours of the wires in this mains lead may not correspond with coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured GREEN-AND- YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug
which is marked with the letter E, or by the safety earth symbol Å@, or coloured green or green-
and-yellow.
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter
N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter L or coloured red.
If you have any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
WARNING: THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.
