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 11R, 5-1/2 x 8-1/2R, 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.Sizes in the AB system Sizes in the inch system

Energy saving features
This product has the following two power reducing modes to help conserve natural resources and reduce
environmental pollution.
Preheat mode
When the machine remains in the standby state for the amount of time set in the key operator programs, preheat
mode automatically reduces the temperature of the fusing unit to save power while the machine is on standby.
When a fax or print job is received, or keys are pressed on the operation panel, or an original is placed for
a copy, fax, or network scanner job, preheat mode automatically turns off.
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 an incoming print job. Either mode will also be deactivated by operation of
DOCUMENT FILING, IMAGE SEND or COPY mode key.
