AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER
Originals set in the automatic document feeder will be automatically fed and copied sequentially.
The automatic document feeder will simultaneously scan both sides of originals when two-sided to one-sided or two-
sided to two-sided copying is being done.
Acceptable originals
A stack of up to 50 original sheets (30 original sheets*
1
for 8-1/2" x 14" (B4) or larger) of the same size paper can be
set in the document feeder tray provided the stack height is within the limit shown below.
A stack of up to 30 mixed size originals can be set if the width of the originals is the same and the stack height is within
the limit shown below. In this case, however, stapling and duplex will not function and some special functions may not
give the expected result.
*1 For paper heavier than 28 lbs. (105 g/m
2
), only a stack of up to 15 sheets can be set. Setting 16 or more sheets may
cause incorrect scanning of original and scanned image may become expanded compared with original itself.
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.
To prevent incorrect original size detection, original misfeeds or smudges on copies, use the following as a guide
for feeding originals.
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.

SETTINGS AND PROGRAMMING REQUIRED
FOR THE NETWORK SCANNER FEATURE
To use the Network Scanner feature, settings for the E-mail server, DNS server, and destination addresses must be established.
To establish the settings, use a computer that is connected to the same network as the machine to access the
machine's Web page. The Web page can be displayed with your Web browser (Internet Explorer 4.0 or later, or
Netscape Navigator 4.0 or later). To access the Web page, refer to page 2-6 of "Operation manual (for printer operation
and general information)".
ABOUT THE WEB PAGE
When you access the Web page in the machine, the following page will appear in your browser.
A menu frame appears on the left side of the page. When you click an item in the menu, a screen appears in the right
frame that allows you to establish settings for that item.
For overviews of each of the menu items, refer to pages 2-7 to 2-8 of "Operation manual (for printer operation and
general information)".
For detailed explanations of the procedures for establishing settings, click "Help" in the menu frame.
SETTING PASSWORDS
Passwords can be set to restrict Web page access and protect settings.
Note that it is not necessary to set passwords; the network scanner functionality can also be used without passwords.
A password can be set for the administrator and passwords can be set for each user. If you use a user password to
access the Web page, you will be able to establish, edit, and delete destinations in the Scanner Destination Management
menu; however, you will not be able to establish settings in the Setup menu.
The passwords for "User" and "admin" are both initially set to "Sharp". If you wish to change the passwords when first
establishing the settings, enter "Sharp" in "Old Admin Password" before you establish the settings. A password must
consist of alphanumeric characters and be no more than seven characters long. Passwords are case sensitive.After
entering a password, click "Submit" to set it. After setting the password, turn the machine power off and then back on.
When a password is set, you will be prompted for the password when you attempt to access a Web page with
protected settings. For the "User name", enter "user" if you are accessing the page as a user, or "admin" if you are
accessing the page as an administrator. For detailed information on setting passwords, refer to "Help".

SETTINGS AND PROGRAMMING REQUIRED FOR THE NETWORK SCANNER FEATURE
BASIC SETTINGS FOR NETWORK SCANNING
Click "Network Scanning" in the menu frame, and then establish the required settings. These settings should only be
established by the network administrator. After entering the settings, be sure to click "Submit" to store them. For
detailed information on setting procedures, refer to "Help".
Select the method for assigning a file name to a scanned image
Select the method for assigning a file name to a scanned image. In "File Naming", click the items that you wish to
use in the file name. "Sender Name" and "Date & Time" are initially selected. If you are going to send images to the
same recipient more than once, we recommend that you also select "Session Page Counter" or "Unique Identifier"
to prevent sending multiple files with the same name, which would result in each successive file overwriting the
previous file.
Selecting an e-mail subject (only used for Scan to E-mail)
Enter a subject when using Scan to E-mail. Only one subject can be entered. If nothing is entered, “Scanned
image from <Device Name>” will appear.
*The name that appears in <Device Name> is the name stored in "Name" in the screen that appears when you click "Status
& Alert E-mail" in the menu frame. If a name has not been stored, the product name will appear.
E-mail Server and DNS Server Settings
E-mail sent by Scan to E-mail or Scan to FTP (Hyperlink) uses SMTP. To use either of these transmission methods,
you must first click "Network Settings" in the Web page menu, click "E-mail" in the screen that appears, and then enter
the required information in the settings under "E-mail Setup".
If you entered a host name in "Primary E-mail Server" or "Secondary E-mail Server" under "E-mail Setup", you will
need to click "DNS" and then enter the settings for the DNS server under "DNS Setup".
If you entered a host name in "Hostname or IP Address" when storing a destination for Scan to FTP (Scan to FTP
(Hyperlink)) or Scan to Desktop, you will also need to enter the settings for the DNS server under "DNS Setup".

SETTING UP DESTINATION INFORMATION
To store the name and address of a destination in an auto dial key, click "Destination Management" or one of the
transmission methods in the Web page menu frame. "Destination Management" can also be used to edit or clear
stored destinations.
A total of 500 destinations can be stored, including E-mail, FTP, Desktop, Internet-Fax, and Group destinations.
Among these, a combined total of 100 Scan to FTP and Desktop destinations can be stored.
The stored destinations appear as one-touch keys in the touch panel of the machine when you send an image,
allowing you to select the destination.
For detailed information on setting up, editing, and deleting destinations, refer to "Help".
Storing destinations for Scan to E-mail and Internet-Fax
Scan to E-mail and Internet-Fax destinations can also be stored, edited, and cleared from the touch panel of the
machine. (Pages 17 - 19)
To perform Scan to E-mail, the e-mail server settings must first be established. (Refer to page 3.)
Storing destinations for Scan to FTP
If you select the "Enable Hyperlink to FTP server to be e-mailed" checkbox, you can send an e-mail message to
a "Sender" selected from "E-mail Destination" (stored in "Sender E-mail" in the Web page menu (page 5)), to
notify that person of the location of the scanned image data and its file format. (Scan to FTP (Hyperlink))
The e-mail includes a link to the location of the scanned image data, and if the FTP server does not require a user
name or password (anonymous server), the recipient can display the image by simply clicking on the address.
If you entered a host name in "Hostname or IP Address", you will need to enter the DNS server or WINS server
settings. Click "Network Settings" and enter the settings under "DNS Setup". To perform Scan to FTP (Hyperlink),
you must also click "E-mail" and then enter the settings under "E-mail Setup" for the e-mail server. (Refer to page
3.)
Storing destinations for Scan to Desktop
Scan to Desktop can only be used if Network Scanner Tool is installed in your computer (Network Scanner Tool is
included on the CD-ROM that accompanies the AR-NS2 Network Scanner Expansion Kit).
You can store a Scan to Desktop destination in the Web page, or in Network Scanner Tool. We recommend that
you normally use Network Scanner Tool, which automatically establishes settings. The Web page is primarily used
when the same settings are to be established in multiple laser printers, or when the network administrator performs
maintenance. If the information set here differs from the information set in the host computer, transmission and
reception will not take place normally. For details, refer to "User's Guide"* for Network Scanner Tool in the CD-
ROM that accompanies the Network Scanner Expansion Kit (AR-NS2).
If you entered a host name in “Hostname or IP Address”, you will need to enter the DNS server or WINS server
settings. (Refer to page 3.)
*To view "User's Guide", Adobe Acrobat Reader 4.05 or later is necessary. If this is not installed on your computer, you can
install it from the CD-ROM that accompanies the Network Scanner Expansion Kit (AR-NS2). For details, refer to the operation
manual for the Network Scanner Expansion Kit (AR-NS2).
Storing Groups
If you are using Scan to E-mail or Internet-Fax, a scanned image can be sent to multiple destinations in a single
operation. To use this function, you must first store the destinations in a group. Click "Group" and then select the
Scan to E-mail or Internet Fax destinations that you wish to store in the group. Up to 300 destinations can be
stored in one group. Only destinations for E-mail or Internet-Fax can be stored in a group. Note that multiple
destinations cannot be entered manually when sending an image.
SETTINGS AND PROGRAMMING REQUIRED FOR THE NETWORK SCANNER FEATURE

SETTINGS AND PROGRAMMING REQUIRED FOR THE NETWORK SCANNER FEATURE
Items common to all transmission methods when storing destinations
Full Name, Display Name
Only alphabetical characters and symbols can be used to enter names in "Full Name" and "Display Name". For
the maximum number of characters that can be entered, click "Help" in the menu frame. "Display Name" is the
one-touch key name that is displayed in the touch panel of the machine. If a display name is not stored, the first 18
characters of the name stored in "Full Name" are automatically used as the display name.
Initial, Custom Directory
Stored destinations are arranged on "indexes" when displayed in the touch panel of the machine. There are two
types of indexes: the ABC index and group indexes. The ABC index arranges destinations based on the letter
entered in "Initial", which is normally the first letter of the name entered in "Full Name". If a destination is frequently
used, it is convenient to select the "Frequently Used" checkbox to include the destination in the alphabetical
"FREQUENT USE" index. Group indexes ("Custom Directories") allow you to create and name indexes (see the
following page) of destinations for specific purposes.
File Format
When you store a destination, you can also select the compression mode and the format of the image file that is
created when you scan an original for transmission. You can select TIFF-F, TIFF, or PDF for the file type, and MH
(G3), MMR (G4), or "Uncompressed" for the compression mode. An initial setting has been made for the file type
and compression mode, so you only need to make a selection if the initial settings are not satisfactory. For an
explanation of the initial settings of each of the transmission methods, click "Help" in the menu frame.
NOTE
Internet-Fax only has one file format, TIFF-F, and thus there is no selection. MH (G3) or MMR (G4) can be selected for the
compression mode.
STORING SENDER INFORMATION
To store the sender information (Sender Name, E-mail Address) that is displayed when the recipient receives your e-
mail, click "Sender E-mail" in the menu frame and then click "Add". Information for up to 20 different senders can be
stored. Select a sender from the stored senders using the touch panel of the machine when you send an image (page
8). The selected sender appears in the sender column of the recipient's e-mail software program.
NOTE
If you do not select a sender when sending an image, the default sender information stored with the key operator program is
automatically sent. (Page 27)
STORING A CUSTOM DIRECTORY
Auto dial keys (one-touch keys and group keys) are normally stored in the ABC index. However, you can also use the
group indexes (custom directory) to group destinations for more convenient use. Six indexes are available, and a
name up to 6 characters long can be assigned to each index.

Important points when using Scan to E-mail
Be very careful not to send image data files that are too large. Your mail server's system administrator may have placed a limit
on the amount of data that can be sent in one e-mail transmission. If this limit is exceeded, the e-mail will not be delivered to
the recipient. Even if there is no limit and your e-mail is successfully delivered, a large data file may take a long time to be
received and place a heavy burden on the recipient's network, depending on the recipient's network (Internet) connection
environment. If large image data files are repeatedly sent, the resulting burden on the network may slow down the speed of
other, unrelated data transmissions and in some cases, may even cause the mail server or network to go down.
In cases where you need to send multiple documents, try such measures as lowering the resolution or image quality mode.
If the power is turned off or a power failure occurs while a document is being scanned in the auto document feeder, the machine will stop and
a document misfeed will occur. After power is restored, remove the document as explained on page 29 of "Operation manual (for copier)".

CONVENIENT DIALING METHODS
This product includes an auto-dialing feature to make dialing easier. By programming frequently dialed numbers, you
can call and send documents to these locations by means of a simple dialing operation (refer to page 2-5). There are
two types of auto-dialing: one-touch dialing and group dialing. To program auto-dial numbers, refer to pages 6-3, 6-6.
One-touch dialing
Simply press a one-touch key and then press the Start
key to dial the programmed location. A name of up to 36
characters can be programmed for the location (a maximum
of 18 characters are displayed). When using F-code
transmission, a sub-address and passcode can also be
programmed (refer to page 4-2).
Group dialing
Multiple one-touch dial locations can be programmed into
a single one-touch key. This is convenient for successively
sending a document to multiple locations.
Full fax numbers entered with the numeric keys cannot
be stored in a group dial key. First program the number in
a one-touch key and then store it in a group dial key.
Redialing
The machine keeps the last fax or voice number dialed
with the numeric keys in memory. You can redial the last
number dialed by simply pressing the REDIAL key.
If numeric keys were pressed during a phone
conversation, the REDIAL key may not dial the correct
number.
On-hook dialing
This feature allows you to dial without lifting an extension
phone connected to the machine. Press the SPEAKER
key, listen for the dial tone through the speaker, and then
dial.
To speak with another person, you must lift the extension
phone connected to the machine when they answer.
Faxes must be sent manually when using on-hook dialing.
(Refer to page 5-3.)
On-hook dialing is not possible using a one-touch key
that includes a sub-address and passcode, or a group
dial key.

Using the auto document feeder
7
Press the START key.
Scanning begins.
If a job is not in progress
and the telephone line is
not being used, the
destination is called after
the first page is scanned.
Transmission takes place
as the document pages
are being scanned.
(This is called "Quick on-line"-refer to the following page.)
If there is a previously stored job or a job is in progress, or
if the line is being used, all pages of the document are
scanned into memory and stored as a transmission job.
(This is called memory transmission: the destination is
automatically called and the document transmitted after
previously stored jobs are completed.)
If scanning is completed normally, the machine makes a
beep sound to inform you that the transmission job is stored
and JOB STORED appears in the message display.
NOTES
Canceling transmission
To cancel transmission while SCANNING ORIGINAL... appears in the display or before the READ-END key is pressed, press
the C key or the CA key. To cancel a transmission job that is already stored, press the JOB STATUS key and cancel the job
as explained on page 2-6.
If the machine makes two beeps during or at the end of transmission and an error message appears in the message display,
refer to page 7-3 to fix the problem.
If the power is turned off or a power failure occurs while a document is being scanned in the auto document feeder, the
machine will stop and a document jam will occur. After power is restored, remove the document as explained on page 29 of
"Operation manual (for copier)".

Quick On-line
When you use the auto document feeder to send a multi-page document and there are no previously stored jobs
waiting or in progress (and the line is not being used), the machine dials the destination after the first page is
scanned and begins transmitting scanned pages while the remaining pages are being scanned. This transmission
method is called Quick On-line. The messages SCANNING ORIGINAL and SENDING both appear until scanning
of the final page is completed.
If the receiving party is busy, the transmission will switch to a memory transmission. (Refer to the following section,
"Storing transmission jobs (memory transmission)".)
NOTES
The machine is initially set (factory setting) to perform Quick On-line transmission. If desired, you can turn off this function
with the key operator program (refer to page 8-7).
When a document is transmitted using the following methods, the job will be stored in memory (Quick On-line transmission
will not be performed):
Sending from the document glass Broadcast transmission (page 3-2) Timer transmission (page 3-4)
F-code transmission (Chapter 4)
Storing transmission jobs (memory transmission)
When a document is sent from the document glass, or when the telephone line is in use, the document is scanned
into memory and then automatically transmitted after previously stored transmission jobs are completed. This
means that transmission jobs can be stored in memory by performing a transmission operation while the machine
is occupied with another transmission/reception operation. This is called memory transmission, and up to 50 jobs
can be stored in memory at once, including the job currently being executed. After transmission, the scanned
document data is cleared from memory.
NOTES
You can check transmission jobs stored in memory in the job status screen. (Refer to page 1-14 of "Operation manual (for
printer operation and general information)".)
If the memory becomes full while a document is being scanned, a message will appear in the display. You can cancel the
transmission by touching the CANCEL key, or send only the pages already scanned by touching the SEND key. The page
that was being scanned when the memory became full will be cleared from memory. If the memory becomes full while
scanning the first page of a document, the transmission job is automatically canceled.
The number of jobs that can be stored will depend on the number of pages in each job and the transmission conditions. The
number of storable jobs will increase if the optional expansion memory (8 MB) is installed.
If the receiving party is busy
If the receiving party is busy, the transmission is temporarily canceled and then automatically re-attempted after
a brief interval (two attempts are made at an interval of 3 minutes*). If you do not want the machine to re-attempt
the transmission, cancel the job in the job status screen. (Refer to page 2-6.)
*This setting can be changed with the key operator program (page 8-7).
If a transmission error occurs
The machine is initially set to not re-attempt transmission if transmission does not end normally due to a line error
or other reason, or if the other machine does not begin reception within 45 seconds after the connection is
established. If desired, you can use the key operator program to set the machine to automatically re-attempt
transmissions when a transmission error occurs (page 8-7). The machine also supports error correction mode
(ECM), and is initially set to automatically resend any parts of a document that were distorted due to noise on the
line or other reasons (page 8-5).
Image rotation
The machine is initially set to rotate a vertically-placed document 90° so that it is oriented horizontally before
transmission (8-1/2"x11" originals are rotated to 8-1/2"x11"R and 5-1/2"x8-1/2"R originals are rotated to 5-1/2"x8-
1/2"). 8-1/2"x11"R originals and 5-1/2"x8-1/2" originals are not rotated. If desired, you can turn this function off
with the key operator program as explained on page 8-6.
NOTE
When using the document glass, be sure to orient 5-1/2"x8-1/2" originals vertically. If oriented horizontally (5-1/2"x8-1/2"
orientation), the original size will be detected as 8-1/2"x11", and you will need to touch the ORIGINAL key and set the original
size to 5-1/2"x8-1/2"R (by touching the 5-1/2"x8-1/2"R key). (Refer to page 1-8.)

RECEIVING FAXES
When another fax machine sends a fax to your machine, your machine will ring*, automatically receive the fax, and
begin printing (automatic reception).
NOTES
You can store a transmission job while fax reception is in progress (refer to page 2-4).
If an extension phone is connected to the machine, you can answer using the extension phone and then begin fax reception
(manual reception). This allows you to use the line for both voice calls and faxes. (Refer to page 5-5.)
To receive faxes, sufficient paper must be loaded in the paper tray. Refer to pages 1-16 to 1-24 of "Operation manual (for
printer operation and general information)" to load appropriate paper. Incoming faxes will be automatically adjusted to the
orientation of the printing paper, so there is no need to load both horizontally and vertically oriented paper.
However, if you receive a fax that is smaller than 8-1/2"x11" size, the paper size used to print the fax will depend on how the
original was oriented (vertically or horizontally) in the sending fax machine.
RECEIVING A FAX
1
The machine will ring* and reception will
automatically begin.
NOTES
If the fax is being sent manually and you have connected
an extension phone to the machine, you can lift the phone
before reception begins to talk with the other person.
If received data cannot be printed
If the machine runs out of paper or toner, or a paper jam occurs, print and copy jobs
that are in progress will be held in memory until printing becomes possible. The jobs
are automatically printed when printing capability is restored. When received data
is held in memory, the DATA light next to the IMAGE SEND key blinks.
You can also use the transfer function to have another fax machine print the received
data (refer to page 3-12).
NOTE
If the machine makes a double beep sound during reception or at the end of reception and an error message appears in the
display, clear the error as explained on page 7-3.
2
Reception ends.
When reception ends, the
machine makes a "beep"
sound.
The output tray for the
printed fax varies depending
on the output unit installed
on the machine.
NOTES
If the machine has multiple output trays, the key operator
program can be used to change the output tray for fax
reception (page 8-8).
If desired, you can set the machine to output a blank
sheet of paper after printing the last page of each received
fax job. This will help you distinguish where one reception
ends and another begins.
*Number of rings
The machine has been set to ring twice before begin-
ning automatic reception. You can use the key op-
erator program to change the number of rings to any
number from 0 to 15. (Refer to page 8-8.)
If the number of rings is set to 0, the machine will
receive faxes without ringing.

SENDING THE SAME DOCUMENT TO MULTIPLE
DESTINATIONS IN A SINGLE OPERATION
(BROADCAST TRANSMISSION)
This feature is used to send a document to multiple destinations in a single operation. The document to be transmitted
is scanned into memory and then successively transmitted to the selected destinations. This feature is convenient for
such purposes as distributing a report to company branches in different locations. Up to 300 destinations can be
selected. When transmission to all destinations has been completed, the document is automatically cleared from
memory.
NOTES
If you frequently use broadcasting to send documents to the same group of destinations, it is convenient to program those
destinations into a group key. A group key is a one-touch key in which multiple destinations are programmed. The procedure
for programming group keys is explained on page 6-6.
When using a group key to send a fax, the destinations programmed in the group key are counted as broadcasting destinations.
For example, if five destinations are programmed in a group key and the key is touched for a broadcast transmission, the
broadcast transmission will have five destinations.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AT A SPECIFIED TIME
(TIMER TRANSMISSION)
This feature enables you to set up a transmission or polling operation to be performed automatically at a specified time
up to a week in advance. This allows you to take advantage of off-peak phone rates without having to be there when
the transmission is performed. A combined total of 50 timer transmission and memory transmission jobs can be stored.
NOTES
After a timer transmission is performed, the information (image, destination, etc.) is automatically cleared from memory.
To perform a timer transmission, the document must be scanned into memory. It is not possible to leave the document in the
auto document feeder or on the document glass and have it scanned at the specified time of transmission.
To set the date and time in the machine, refer to page 3-15 of "Operation manual (for printer operation and general information)".
Only one polling timer operation can be set up at a time. If you wish to set up multiple timer polling operations, combine the
machines to be polled into a serial polling operation with a timer setting. (Refer to the next page.)

TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION USING
THE POLLING FUNCTION
This function can only be used if the other machine is a Super G3 or G3 machine and supports the polling function.
The polling function allows your machine to call a fax machine that has document data set and initiate reception of the
document. You can also perform the reverse operation: scan a document into the memory of your machine so that
another machine can call your machine and initiate reception of the document.
This function whereby your machine calls the sending machine and asks the sending machine to begin transmission
of a loaded document is called the polling function. Scanning a document into memory and automatically sending it
when the receiving machine calls and "polls" your machine is called memory polling.
NOTE
For information on polling and polling memory using F-codes, refer to page 4-4. This section only explains normal polling and
normal polling memory.
Polling
This function allows your machine to call a sending machine and initiate reception of a document loaded in that
machine. A timer setting can also be established to have the operation take place at night or another specified

USING POLLING MEMORY
This function sends a document previously scanned into memory to a receiving machine when the receiving machine
calls and polls your machine. This machine has "memory boxes", which are memory used for such functions as the
normal polling memory function, F-code polling memory, F-code confidential transmission, and F-code relay transmission
(refer to page 4-2). The polling memory function explained here uses a memory box called the "PUBLIC BOX". (If
desired, you can restrict polling to fax machines whose fax number you have programmed in your machine (refer to
page 8-9)).
NOTE
When using the polling memory function, do not set the reception mode to MANUAL. (Page 5-4)
Scanning a document into memory (Public Box) for polling memory
This procedure is for scanning a document into the Public Box. If other document data has already been stored in

Restricting polling access (polling security)
If you wish to prevent unauthorized fax machines from polling your machine, turn on the polling security function.
When this function is turned on, polling permission will only be granted if the fax number of the polling machine (as
programmed in that machine) matches one of the fax numbers you have programmed in your machine as passcode
numbers. Up to 10 fax numbers can be programmed as passcode numbers.
To turn on the polling security function and program passcode numbers, use the key operator program as explained
on page 8-9.
NOTES
If you do not use the polling security function, the document will be sent to any fax machine that polls you.
When using the polling security function, even if you have programmed the fax number of a another machine in your machine,
polling will not be possible if the operator of the other machine has not programmed the same fax number in that machine.

PROGRAMMING FREQUENTLY USED OPERATIONS
This function allows you to store the steps of an operation, including the destination and scanning settings, into a
program. When you want to send a document to that destination, you can simply call up the program and the steps will
be performed automatically. This function is convenient when you frequently send documents, such as a daily report,
to the same destination. Up to eight programs can be stored.
NOTES
A program differs from a timer transmission (page 3-4) in that it is not cleared from memory after transmission takes place. A
program thus allows you to repeatedly perform the same type of transmission. Note, however, that programs do not allow you
to establish a timer setting for transmission.
With the exception of polling, reception operations cannot be stored in a program.
Programs can be stored using the custom settings, and a name up to 18 characters long can be assigned.
For information on storing, editing, and deleting programs, refer to page 6-8.
The following settings can be stored in a program:
Destination fax number Polling Dual Page Scan Resolution and exposure
Auto-dial keys (one-touch or group keys) are used to store the destination fax number. A full number cannot be
entered using the numeric keys. When storing a broadcast transmission or serial polling operation in a program, up to
300 destination fax numbers can be stored.

TRANSMISSION BETWEEN MACHINES
SUPPORTING F-CODES
This machine supports the "F-code" standard as established by the ITU-T*.
The F-code standard makes it possible to perform special operations such as relay broadcast and confidential
transmission, which previously could only be performed with another similar Sharp machine, with any other machine
that also supports F-codes.
Before using any of the functions explained in this chapter, verify that the other fax machine supports F-codes and the
function that you wish to use (the other machine may use a different name for the function).
*The ITU-T is a United Nations organization that establishes communications standards. It is a department of the International
Telecommunication Union (ITU), which coordinates global telecommunications networks and services.
MEMORY BOXES AND SUB-ADDRESSES/PASSCODES
REQUIRED FOR F-CODE TRANSMISSION
Fax machines that support F-code transmission enable the creation of a "memory box" in the unit's memory. The
memory box is used to store documents received from another fax machine or documents to be sent when another
machine polls that machine. Up to 100 memory boxes can be created for a variety of purposes, and a name can be
assigned to each box. A "sub-address" that indicates the box's location in memory must be programmed, and if
desired, a passcode can also be programmed to control access to the box.

*The Public Box is used for normal serial polling (page 3-5).
When communication occurs involving a memory box, the communication will only take place if the sub-address and
passcode that the other machine sends match the sub-address and passcode programmed in your machine for that
box. Therefore, to allow communication, you must inform the other party of the sub-address and passcode of the
memory box. Likewise, to send a document to a memory box in another machine or use polling to retrieve a document
from that memory box, you must know the sub-address and passcode of that memory box.
Memory boxes are managed in this machine not only by sub-addresses and passcodes (which are number sequences), but
also by names. For example, for the memory box with the sub-address, "7732123", and the passcode, "1115", you could
assign the name "Product Planning". Assigning names makes it easier to manage memory boxes. (Note that you do not need
to inform the other party of a memory box name; the other party only needs to know the sub-address and passcode.)
This machine uses the term "sub-address" for the location of the memory box and the term "passcode" for the
password that allows communication; however, other fax machines of other manufacturers may use different terms.
When asking the other party for a sub-address and passcode, you may find it useful to refer to the 3-character
alphabetical terminology used by the ITU-T.

CREATING A MEMORY BOX FOR F-CODE TRANSMISSION
F-code operations using memory boxes include F-code polling memory (following page), F-code confidential
transmission (page 4-6), and F-code relay broadcast (page 4-8). Memory boxes must be created to perform any of
these operations.
A memory box can be created using the custom settings. The method of setting up the box varies depending on the
operation. Up to 100 boxes can be created. Note that two boxes cannot use the same sub-address, and a passcode
can be omitted.
Refer to page 6-10 for the procedures for creating, editing, and deleting memory boxes.
A maximum of 20 digits are permitted for sub-addresses and passcodes. Be sure to inform the other party of the sub-
address and passcode.
NOTES
If you attempt to create a box when 100 boxes have already been created, a message will appear and you will not be able to
create the box. First delete an unneeded box (page 6-13), and then create the new box.
Spaces cannot be used when programming a sub-address or passcode. The characters "#" and "
" cannot be used in a sub-
address, but they can be used in a passcode.

F-CODE POLLING MEMORY
F-code polling memory allows one fax machine to call another fax machine and activate reception of a document that has
been scanned into the other machine's F-code polling memory box. Calling another machine and activating reception is
called F-code polling, and scanning a document into a memory box for another machine to retrieve by polling is called F-
code polling memory. This function is approximately the same as normal polling explained on page 3-5; however, it uses
an F-code polling memory box and is always protected by means of the sub-address and passcode.

F-code polling is when your machine calls another machine and retrieves a document that was scanned into the
polling memory box of that machine (the reverse of the above diagram).
NOTES
To perform polling or polling memory without using an F-code, refer to page 3-5.
To create an F-code memory box for polling memory, refer to page 6-10.
Unlike normal polling, the other machine's fax number is not programmed as a passcode for F-code polling memory. The
sub-address and passcode of the polling memory box are always used for polling security.
The receiving machine bears the expense (phone charges) of the transmission.
USING F-CODE POLLING MEMORY
In order for another machine to retrieve a document from your machine, you must first scan the document into the F-
code polling memory box.
You can check scanned document data by printing it out (refer to the following page).
NOTE
When using F-code polling memory, do not set the reception mode to manual reception.
NOTE
When creating the memory box, you can select whether to have the scanned document data automatically cleared after
polling, or left in the box to allow repeated polling.
Scanning a document into an F-code polling memory box
The procedure for scanning a document into an F-code polling memory box created with the custom settings (page 6-10) is
almost the same as the procedure for scanning a document into the Public Box for normal polling memory. Instead of
touching the PUBLIC BOX key in Step 4 on page 3-7, touch the key of the memory box into which you wish to scan the
document. If document data has already been stored in that box, the new document data will be added on to the existing data.
If you no longer need the existing data, delete it as explained on the following page.
When you touch the memory box into which you wish to scan the document, the
key is highlighted and selected as the scanning destination.

As the above diagram shows, receiving document data to the machine's F-code confidential memory box is called
F-code confidential reception, and sending document data to another machine's F-code confidential memory box
is called F-code confidential transmission.
NOTES
This machine does not support Sharp's previous confidential transmission function, which uses the programmed sender's
fax number and ID code.
Refer to pages 6-10 through 6-13 for the procedures for creating, editing, and deleting F-code confidential memory boxes.
Take care not to forget the print PIN. programmed in the F-code confidential memory box. If you forget the passcode, consult
your dealer.
F-CODE CONFIDENTIAL TRANSMISSION
F-code confidential transmission is performed in the same way as a normal transmission (refer to chapter 2); however,
you must enter the sub-address (SUB) and passcode (SID) after the fax number of the other machine. (Omit the
passcode if the other machine does not use a passcode.)
For the procedure for entering sub-addresses and passcodes, refer to page 4-3.
F-code confidential reception is performed in the same way as normal reception (refer to chapter 2); however, you
must inform the other party of the sub-address (SUB) and passcode (SID) of your confidential memory box. (Omit the
passcode if a passcode is not programmed in the box.)
NOTE
An F-code confidential transmission can be used in combination with the broadcast transmission function (page 3-2) or timer
transmission function (page 3-4), and can be stored in a program (page 6-8).

F-CODE RELAY BROADCAST TRANSMISSION
The F-code relay broadcast transmission function makes it possible to program the fax numbers of end receiving machines
in an F-code relay memory box. Your machine thereby becomes a relay machine. When your machine receives a document
from another F-code machine, your machine relays (transmits) that document to each of the end receiving machines.
The relay machine and the originating machine that requests the relay transmission must both support F-codes; however,
the end receiving machines programmed in the F-code relay broadcast memory box do not need to support F-codes.
S.F.
3) Document data is
read into relay broadcast
memory box
(reception is permitted).
4)
Document is successively transmitted
to end receiving machines programmed
in the relay broadcast memory box.

If the Network Scanner Expansion
Kit (AR-NS2) installed and your
machine acts as a relay machine,
you can also store E-mail and
Internet-Fax destinations in the relay
broadcast memory box for relay
transmission to E-mail and Internet-
Fax recipients.
The machine that originally sends the document is called the relay request machine, and the machine that has a
memory box containing the end receiving machines and which relays the received document to those machines
is called the relay machine.
The relay machine also prints the document sent by the relay request machine.
For example, corporate headquarters in Seattle wants to send the same document to branch offices in San Francisco,
Oakland, Berkeley, and San Jose. If the San Francisco office creates a relay broadcast memory box and programs the
Oakland, Berkeley, and San Jose offices as end receiving destinations, the overall phone charges will be lower than
if the Seattle office uses the normal broadcast transmission function (page 3-2). This function can also be combined
with a timer setting (page 3-4) to take advantage of off-peak rates, allowing a further reduction in phone charges.
Transmission by the relay machine is called "F-code relay broadcast transmission", and transmission from the relay
request machine to the relay machine is called "relay request transmission".
NOTES
This machine does not support Sharp's previous relay broadcast function, which uses the programmed sender's number
and relay ID code.
To create an F-code relay broadcast memory box and program, edit, and delete end receiving machines, refer to pages 6-10
to 6-13. When creating a box, a passcode (SID) can be omitted.
The relay request machine only bears the expense of sending the document to the relay machine. The relay machine bears
the expense of sending the document to each of the end receiving machines.

F-CODE RELAY BROADCAST TRANSMISSION
USING THE F-CODE RELAY BROADCAST FUNCTION
(your machine is the relay machine)
When a document is received from a relay request machine, the F-code relay broadcast function transmits the document
to the end receiving machines using a memory box only if the sub-address and passcode sent by the relay request
machine are correct.
Refer to pages 6-10 through 6-13 for the procedures for creating, editing, and deleting memory boxes.
Up to 30 end receiving machines (30 one-touch keys or group keys) can be programmed in the F-code relay broadcast
memory box.
A document received from a relay request machine is initially stored in the memory box of your machine. Your machine
(the relay machine) also prints the document, thus the document is first stored as a print job and then as transmission
jobs to each of the programmed end receiving machines. The document data is automatically cleared after transmission
to all end receiving machines is completed.
NOTE
End receiving machines are programmed using auto-dial keys (one-touch keys or group keys). If you need to program an end
receiving machine that has not been programmed in a one-touch key, program the number in a one-touch key first and then
create the memory box.
USING THE F-CODE RELAY REQUEST FUNCTION
(your machine requests a relay broadcast)
First ask the operator of the other F-code machine to create an F-code relay broadcast memory box and program the
end receiving machines in that box. Ask the operator of the other machine for the sub-address (SUB) and passcode
(SID) of the memory box.
When you send the document to the relay machine, enter the sub-address and passcode after the fax number. The
document will be stored in the memory box of the relay machine, and then transmitted from the relay machine to each
of the programmed end receiving machines. A passcode (SID) need not be entered when dialing if a passcode was
not programmed for the memory box.
Aside from the method of dialing the relay machine, the transmission procedure is the same as for a normal
transmission (refer to chapter 2).
Refer to page 4-3 for the procedure for entering a sub-address and passcode after the fax number of the other
machine.

The procedure for programming a memory box for F-code transmission is explained here. There are three types of F-
code memory boxes: F-code polling memory (page 4-4), F-code confidential transmission (page 4-6), and F-code
relay broadcast (page 4-8). Memory boxes are programmed, edited, and deleted as follows.
PROGRAMMING AN F-CODE MEMORY BOX
A box name, sub-address/passcode, and function must be programmed in a memory box.
NOTES
When programming a new memory box, a sub-address that is being used for another box cannot be used. The passcode,
however, can be the same as a passcode used in another box.
A passcode can be omitted.
Up to 100 F-code memory boxes can be programmed. If 100 F-code memory boxes have already been programmed, a
warning message will appear and you will not be able to program a new box. First delete an unneeded F-code memory box
(page 6-13) and then program the new box.

WHEN A TRANSACTION REPORT IS PRINTED
The machine has been set to automatically print a Transaction Report when a transmission is not successful or when
the Broadcast transmission function is used. The Transaction Report informs you of the result of the operation. When
the machine prints a Transaction Report, be sure to check the contents.
The initial settings (factory settings) for printing Transaction Reports are indicated by shading below. You can
use the key operator program to change the settings (page 8-5).
Single sending: Print out all report / Print out error report only / No printed report
Receiving: Print out all report / Print out error report only / No printed report
Broadcasting: Print out all report / Print out error report only / No printed report
Confidential reception: Print out notice page / Not print out notice page
The Transaction Report shows the date of transmission, the time transmission began, the other party's name, the
duration of the operation, the number of pages, and the result.
NOTES
The list count appears in the "#" column of the Transaction Report and a serial number appears in the FILE column. (These
numbers are not related to the transaction.)
When a transmission error occurs, a portion of the original document is printed along with the Transaction Report. You can
set the machine to not print the original using the key operator program (page 8-5).

VIEWING THE COMMUNICATION ACTIVITY REPORT
Your machine keeps a record of the most recent 50 transactions (both transmissions and receptions) that were
performed. The record includes the date of the transaction, the other party's name, the duration, and result. You can
have the report automatically printed when the number of transactions exceeds 50, or at a specified time. This allows
you to check the machine's activity at regular intervals.
The machine is initially set (factory setting) to not print the report. To have the report printed, change the setting with
the key operator program (page 8-5).
NOTES
After printing, the data is cleared from memory, so the report cannot be printed a second time.
Refer to the table in "When a Transaction Report is printed" on the previous page for the notes that appear in the TYPE/NOTE column.

Normally the initial display is set to the condition setting
screen (page 1-4).
The following three selections are available:
Condition setting screen
Address directory (ABC)
Address directory (Group)
When an address directory (ABC or Group) is
selected, the selected index of that address directory
(page 1-5) is set as the initial screen.
The number of direct address keys
displayed setting
The number of one-touch keys displayed in each
address directory screen can be changed from 8
(the normal setting) to 6 or 12.
Touch 6, 8, or 12 to select the desired number.
NOTE
For the key name that appears in each one-touch key, a
maximum of 18 characters can appear when the number
of one-touch keys displayed is set to 6 or 8. A maximum of
10 characters can appear when the number of one-touch
keys displayed is set to 12.
Must input next address key at
broadcast setting
You can select whether the NEXT ADDRESS key must
be pressed before entering the next destination when
performing a broadcast transmission (page 3-2).
Normally the machine is set so that touching the NEXT
ADDRESS key can be omitted except when the
numeric keys are used to enter one full fax number
after another full fax number.

Cannot be omitted.
If the box is checked, it will no longer be possible to
omit the NEXT ADDRESS key as shown in the
above example. Even if the next destination to be
entered is a one-touch key, the NEXT ADDRESS
key must be touched before the one-touch key can
be entered.
If you attempt to enter a subsequent destination
without touching the NEXT ADDRESS key, the
destination will not be entered.
Initial resolution setting
This setting is used to change the default resolution
setting for fax mode from STANDARD to FINE,
SUPER FINE, or ULTRA FINE. HALF TONE can
also be selected for the latter three resolution
settings. STANDARD is normally selected for the
initial resolution setting. If you wish to select HALF
TONE for the selected resolution setting, touch the
HALF TONE key to highlight it.

Fax send settings
The fax transmission settings allow you to adjust certain
parameters for sending faxes to better suit your needs.
The fax send settings are as follows:
Auto reduction sending setting
Rotation sending setting
Printing page number at receiver
Call timer at memory sending
Date/own number print position setting
Recall in case of line busy
Recall in case of communication error
Times of recall setting in case of line busy
Interval of recall setting
Quick on line sending
Auto reduction sending setting
This setting lets you select whether to have a transmitted
document reduced to match the size of the other
machine's printing paper. Auto reduction is normally
turned on. If the setting is turned off, documents are
sent in their original size. Because the size is not
adjusted to match the size of the printing paper, part of
the received document may be cut off.
Rotation sending setting
When transmitting a document, this setting allows
you to rotate a vertically oriented 8-1/2"x11"
document to a horizontal orientation (8-1/2"x11"R),
or rotate a 5-1/2"x8-1/2R" document to 5-1/2"x8-1/

KEY OPERATOR PROGRAMS
Distinctive ring detection
If multiple telephone numbers have been assigned to
your telephone line, the number called can be identified
by its ringing pattern. By using one number for voice
calls and another number for faxes, you can tell which
type of call you are receiving by the ringing pattern.
You can set your machine to automatically receive
faxes when your fax number is called by setting the
pattern that corresponds to your fax number. Six
selections are available. Normally OFF is selected.
background

Call timer at memory sending
When sending a fax by automatic transmission, this
setting lets you select the amount of time that the
machine waits before breaking the connection when
the other machine does not respond to your
machine's calling tone. If the other machine does
not respond within this set time, your machine will
automatically break the connection. Time selections
are 30 seconds, 45 seconds, and 60 seconds. This
setting is normally set to 45 seconds.
Date/own number print position setting
This setting lets you select the position (inside or
outside the original image) of the sender's name
and number that are printed at the top of each fax
page you send. Normally OUTSIDE THE ORIGINAL
IMAGE is selected. To have your name and number
printed inside the original image, select INSIDE THE
ORIGINAL IMAGE. For more detailed information
on the position of each setting, refer to page 3-9.
Recall in case of line busy
When sending a document, this setting is used to
select whether your machine will automatically re-
attempt the call when the other machine fails to
answer or the line is busy. Normally your machine is
set to re-attempt the call, and you can set the number
of attempts and the interval between attempts with
the "times of recall setting in case of line busy" and
"interval of recall" settings below.
NOTE
Even if this setting is turned on, your machine will not re-
attempt the call when a document is sent by manual
transmission.
Recall in case of communication error
When sending a document, this setting is used to
select whether your machine will re-attempt the call if
the transmission fails due to a line error. Normally your
machine is set to not automatically re-attempt the call.
To set the machine to automatically re-attempt the
call, touch the box so a checkmark appears, and then
adjust the "interval of recall" setting below. Note that
only one re-attempt is made (the number of re-
attempts cannot be selected).
NOTE
Even if this setting is turned on, your machine will not re-
attempt the call when a document is sent by manual
transmission.
KEY OPERATOR PROGRAMS
Times of recall setting in case of line busy
If you have set the machine to re-attempt a call when
a fax transmission is not successful due to the line
being busy, this setting lets you select the number
of times the machine re-attempts the call. You can
select any number from 1 to 14. Normally the number
is set to "2".
Interval of recall setting
If you have set the machine to re-attempt a call when
a fax transmission is not successful due to the line
being busy or a communication error, this setting
lets you select the interval at which the machine re-
attempts the call (the attempt is stored as a
transmission job). You can select any number of
minutes from 1 to 15. Normally the number of
minutes is set to "3".
Quick on line sending
When this setting is turned on, the machine will call
the other machine and start transmitting the
document as soon as the first page is scanned.
Transmission therefore takes place at the same time
as any further pages are being scanned. Normally
this setting is turned on.
If you turn the setting off, transmission will not begin
until all pages of the document have been scanned.
Note that this setting does not apply to manual
transmission.
background
8-8
Print style setting
This setting determines the selection condition for
paper when printing received documents. Select one
of the three conditions below. AUTO SIZE SELECT
is normally selected.
PRINT ACTUAL SIZE CUT OFF DISABLED
Each received image is printed at actual size
without splitting the image onto multiple sheets of
paper. If there is no paper available that is the same
size as the image or greater, the entire document
is temporarily stored in memory.
PRINT ACTUAL SIZE CUT OFF ENABLED
Each received image is printed at actual size. If
necessary, the image is split onto multiple sheets
of paper.
AUTO SIZE SELECT
Each received image is printed at actual size when
possible. When not possible, the image is
automatically reduced before printing.
Set the telephone number for data forwarding
When a problem prevents the machine from printing
a received fax, the transfer function (page 3-12) can
be used to forward the received fax to another fax
machine. Use this setting to program the fax number
of the destination fax machine. Only one fax number
can be programmed (maximum of 64 digits).
If you wish to specify an F-code confidential memory
box in the destination machine, touch the SUB
ADDRESS key after entering the fax number to enter
a slash "/", and then enter the sub-address. Enter a
passcode as well if needed.
Fax separator page
This setting is used to have the machine output a
blank sheet of paper after printing each received
fax. The blank sheet acts as a separator between
received faxes, making it easy to distinguish where
one fax ends and another begins. This setting is
normally turned off.
If you wish to have the machine insert separator
sheets between faxes, touch the box to remove the
checkmark.

vary depending on what peripheral devices have
been installed.
KEY OPERATOR PROGRAMS
Fax receive settings
The fax reception settings allow you to adjust certain
parameters for receiving faxes to better suit your needs.
Settings that can be adjusted depend on the peripheral
devices installed.

Duplex reception setting
(only when the duplex module is installed)
Print style setting
Set the telephone number for data forwarding
Fax separator page
Output tray setting
Auto receive reduce setting
When you receive a fax that includes the sender's
name and number, the received image is slightly larger
than the standard size. This setting lets you select
whether to have the received image automatically
reduced before printing to fit the standard size.
Normally automatic reduction is turned on.
NOTE
If you turn automatic reduction off, the overall printed image
may be larger than the original and in some cases must
be split onto two pages. However, the printed image of the
original itself will be the same size as the original, and
thus clearer.
Number of calls in auto reception
This setting is used to select the number of rings on
which the machine automatically receives a call and
begins fax reception when the reception mode is set
to auto. You can select a number of rings from 0 to 15.
Normally "2" is selected.
NOTE
If you select "0" for the number of rings, the machine will
immediately answer and begin fax reception without ringing
in auto reception mode.
However, do not select "0" when an extension phone is
connected to the machine.
Duplex reception setting
(only when the duplex module is installed)
When the duplex module is installed, you can use this
setting to select whether received documents are
printed on both sides of the paper. Normally this setting
is turned off. If turned on, received documents will be
printed on both sides of the paper whenever the
received document consists of two or more pages of
the same paper size.

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 8-1/2 x 11R,
5-1/2 x 8-1/2R, A4R, B5R, etc. Sizes that can be placed only in the landscape orientation (11 x 17, 8-1/2 x 14, 8-1/2 x
13, A3, B4) do not contain the “R” in their size indication.

MAIN FEATURES
Laser printer able to accept a range of peripherals allowing it to be configured to specific needs
This product is a laser printer that can be used as a local printer which can be configured by the addition of
peripheral devices to extend its capabilities to include copier, network printer, network scanner or facsimile features.
A range of optional units to enhance productivity
Optional additions such as duplex units for producing two-sided output, additional paper feed units to increase the
variety of available paper sizes and paper capacity, paper output units to sort and otherwise organize the output
and a scanner module for automatically scanning documents.
600 dpi high resolution printing
High-definition and high quality printing with 600 dpi resolution can be performed. Also high image quality equivalent
to 1200 dpi can be output by using a smoothing function.
High speed monochrome printing
Depending upon the model chosen, high speed printing at 35 letter (A4) size pages/minute or 45 letter (A4) size
pages/minute is available.
PostScript compatible
Installation of a PS3 expansion kit gives PostScript compatibility (PostScript level 3).
Energy saving features
This product has the following two power reducing modes that conform to the
Energy Star guidelines which help to 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 made. 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 key operator program.
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 key operator program.
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 either an incoming print job or received facsimile data. Either mode will also be
deactivated by any key operation on the operation panel or by the action of an original being placed for copying
or facsimile transmission.
As an
ENERGY STA R
®
Partner, SHARP has
determined that this
product meets the
ENERGY STAR
®
guidelines for energy
efficiency.

only if your printer is equipped with the hard disk drive option.
JOB CONTROL operation
1
Normal print
(For “Normal print”, no input from the operation panel
of the printer is needed.)
The print setting in this mode is the basic print
operation. If no problem such as a paper misfeed
and empty toner occurs in the printer, the print start
operation is completed on the computer and printing
will be executed on the printer.
2
Hold after print
In this mode, print data will be held in the hold job
list even after printing is complete. Printing can be
executed again from the operation panel of the
printer if needed. Also the data can be deleted from
the operation panel if it is not necessary.
3
Hold before print
This print mode can reduce the possibility of
missing printout. If printing is made in this mode
from the computer, print data will not be output
immediately and will be stored in the printer as a
hold job until released from the operation panel.
Print start operation can be made on the operation
panel of the printer as needed. Also you can delete
the data without executing printing. (See step 7 on
page 2-10 or step 5 on page 2-11.)
4
Proof print
This mode can prevent a high-volume misprint when
a lot of sets must be printed. If printing is executed
in this mode, only one set will be printed and the
remaining sets will be held as a hold job.
After checking the finished printout including print
position on paper and stapling position, you can
start printing of the remaining sets from the
operation panel of the printer. Also you can delete
the data without executing printing. (See step 7 on
page 2-10 and step 5 on page 2-11.)

Password (5 digits)
Password
Password
If a password is set in the printer driver setting, a
password entry is needed to start printing of a
password protect job. This mode can increase the
security of hold jobs.
Hold After Print mode with password:
Password entry on the operation panel of the
printer is needed for additional printing the hold
job.
Hold Before Print mode with password:
Password entry on the operation panel of the
printer is needed to start printing.
Proof Print mode with password:
Password entry on the operation panel of the
printer is needed for printing remaining sets after
printing one set. The first set is printed without
password entry.

Hold job list
If “Print after hold”, “Print before hold” or “Proof print” operation is performed on the computer, print data will be held as
a hold job. (Up to 100 jobs can be held.
If the main switch is turned off, the stored data of all jobs in hold will be
cleared.
)
If the number of jobs exceeds 100, the job is processed as follows.
If Hold After Print is executed:
Printing will be executed but the job will not be held. (A notice page will be printed. See page 6-5.)
If Hold Before Print is executed:
Printing will not be executed and the job will not be held. (A notice page will be printed. See page 6-5.)

USER MAINTENANCE
To ensure good service from this product over a long period of time, it is recommended that the following maintenance
be performed on a regular basis.
NOTE
When cleaning, do not use thinner, benzene, or
similar volatile cleaning agents.
Cleaning the scanner module
If the document glass, DSPF scanning section glass or document cover have dirty spots, these spots will become
part of scanned images. These will show up as defects when the images are printed. Clean these areas by wiping them
with a soft, clean cloth dampened with water or a small amount of a neutral detergent and then wipe them dry.
If black or white stripes
appear on printed images
of originals that were fed
through the DSPF, wipe
the scanning section
glasses shown as A and
B in the illustration.

Loading paper in the bypass tray
The bypass tray can be used for plain paper and special papers including labels. Up to 100 sheets of standard paper
can be set. For paper types that can be used in the bypass tray, refer to page 1-17.
NOTE
If the paper type or size is changed, be sure to enter the paper type and size as in step 4.
1
Open the bypass tray.
When setting 11"x 17",
8-1/2" x 14", 8-1/2" x 13,
A3 or B4 paper, be sure
to extend the bypass tray
extension.
2
Set the bypass tray paper guides to the
width of the paper to be used.
3
Insert the paper all the way into the bypass
tray.
Set the paper face down.
If there is a clearance
between the paper and
the paper guides, the
paper may not be fed
correctly. Adjust the
guides so that they
contact the edges of the
paper.
NOTES
When using 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" paper, A5 paper or
postcards, be sure to load them with their shorter
edge into the feed slot as shown in the illustration.
When using special paper, postcards or
transparency film, be sure to feed them one
sheet at a time. If you set more than one sheet,
a paper misfeed may occur.
When adding paper, first remove remaining
paper, combine it with the paper to be added,
and then reload as a single stack. Adding paper
without stacking it correctly may cause a paper
misfeed.
When printing onto transparency film, remove
the output sheets as soon as possible.
For transparency film, use SHARP recom-
mended film.

Set the type and size of the loaded paper.
When the paper system is changed from the inch
system to the AB system or vise versa or when the
paper type is changed, the paper type must be
designated. For setting the paper size and type, see

NOTICE PAGE PRINTING
A notice page will be printed when the current print job cannot be done due to a system limitation and an explanation
of the limitation is too lengthy to be shown in the message display. A notice page will describe the limitation and
other possibilities to run the job.
A notice page will be printed in the following cases.
When sufficient memory is not available to store the print data. This may happen even if the amount of data for
the job is not large when the memory becomes full with data of other jobs.
When a print job is sent to the printer and the number of print hold jobs has reached the maximum of 100 jobs.
When different paper sizes have been selected for printing within a print job and one or more of the sizes cannot
be delivered to the selected exit tray or to the stapler compiler. In these cases printed paper will be delivered
partly to the specified destination (tray or compiler) and partly to another exit tray.
When a function has been selected for printing but has been disabled by a key operator program. (Duplex module
is disabled, stapler is disabled, punch is disabled, specified exit tray is disabled, etc.)
An invalid account number is entered when the auditing mode has been set.
Disabling of notice page printing
Notice page printing can be disabled using a key operator program. See “Disable notice page printing” on page 11 of
the Key Operator’s Guide.
