for instance, has full access to color copying, printing, scanning and/or fax. Walk up users enter
a code, Local Name and Password, or LDAP User Authentication to access their features
assigned to their group. Users can also login utilizing a human interface device (HID) such as
a Smartcard or Common Access Card (CAC).*
Data Erase and Encryption*
To help protect your data, the MX-4100N/4101N/5001N Series offers an optional data
security kit that encrypts document data using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
encryption. Additionally, the data security kit erases the temporary memory on the hard
drive by overwriting the encrypted data up to seven times, offering an unprecedented
level of assurance. Additionally, the data security kits for these models comply to the new
IEEE-2600-2008 security standard for MFP devices. This new standard specifies security
requirements and provides a new international reference to assess contemporary MFP security.

offers IPsec, SMB and extended support for SSL Encryption (Secure Sockets Layer), IP/MAC
address filtering, IEEE 802.1x authentication, protocol enable/disable and port
management for maximum security.
Documents Remain Confidential
To help protect your printed documents from unauthorized viewing, the MX-4100N/
4101N/5001N Series offers encrypted PDF files for printing and scanning as well as
Confidential Printing that requires users to enter a PIN code in order to print a queued
document. Additionally, Secure Fax Release ensures received fax documents are held in

Sharp’s ongoing commitment and dedication
to developing eco-friendly document systems
set a high standard for the industry
Designed with a Strong Commitment to Protecting the Environment
The MX-4100N/4101N/5001N document systems utilize Sharp’s second generation
micro-fine toner technology, which offers a lower consumption rate than conventional toners.
This also results in less packaging material and longer replacement intervals. Additionally,
all Sharp supplies are packaged using fully recyclable materials. Power consumption on the
MX-4100N/4101N/5001N is among the lowest in the industry and supports two different
energy saving modes to reduce or shut off power after a set interval. All Sharp document
systems belong to the EnergyStar®program, and RoHS program.
An Economical, Low Maintenance Color Document System That Makes Sense
The MX-4100N/4101N/5001N are designed to accommodate both large and small office
environments. With a compact wingless design, the footprint of each base model is
less than 25” x 27”. Our new long-life consumable parts and supplies minimize service
intervals and down time, helping result in lower operating costs.
Sharp’s Environmental Leadership
As a testiment to our commitment to the evironment, Sharp was a former recipient of the
Excellence in Partnership Green Contractor Award and the Evergreen Award from the U.S.
Government’s General Services Administration and the Coalition for Government Procurement.
The Green Contractor Award recognizes contractors that have made the best overall
commitment to the environment by offering environmentally friendly products and services
or adhering to environmentally sound manufacturing procedures.
The Evergreen Award identifies environmentally-friendly businesses and their efforts
in recycling and waste reduction practices. Please visit www.sharpusa.com/environment to
