1-56 BEFORE USING THE MACHINE Contents 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, Scan to Network Folder, and HTTPS transmission can be executed. Standard application setup To enable a general application in the Web pages of the machine, click [Application Settings] in the administrator menu frame, and then [External Applications Settings] and [Standard Applications]. Configure settings for the standard application in the screen that appears. Selecting a standard application The procedure for selecting a general application that has been enabled in the Web pages of the machine is explained below. 1 Touch the [Sharp OSA] key in the mode select keys. If no standard applications have been stored in the Web pages, the key cannot be touched.

1-57 BEFORE USING THE MACHINE Contents 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 enable an external account application in the Web pa ges of the machine, click [Application Settings] in the administrator menu frame, and then [External Applications Settings] and [External Accounting Application Settings]. Configure settings for th e external account application in the screen that appears. The setting change will take effect after the machine is restarted. To restart the machine, see TURNING THE POWER ON AND OFF (page 1-15). Operation in external account mode The two modes for using an external accoun t 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 system settin gs (administrator), the machine enters extern al authentication mode. When the machine is powered on in external authentication mode, the machine ac cesses 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. 2 Select 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 applic ation that you wish to use. If only one standard applicat ion has been stored in the Web pages, connection to the standard application will begin. 3 The machine connects to th e standard application. The message Connecting to the extern al application. appears while the machine communicates with the standard application. The mode select key cannot be used during scanning. • The user control function of the machine cannot be used in external authentication mode. However, User Registra tion, User Count Display, User Count Reset , User Information Print, and The Number of User Name Displayed Setting can be used. The mode select key cannot be used while the login screen appears. App 08 App 07 App 06 App 05 App 04 App 03 App 02 App 01 Select External Application
1-58 BEFORE USING THE MACHINE Contents 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 system settings (administrator). The setting change will take effect after the machine is restarted. To restart the machine, see TURNING THE POWER ON AND OFF (page 1-15). External count mode When only the [External Account Control] setting is enabled in External Account Setting of Sharp OSA Settings in the system settings (administrator), 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.)
1-59 BEFORE USING THE MACHINE Contents This section explains how to clean the machine and replace the toner cartridges and the waste toner box. REGULAR MAINTENANCE To ensure that the machine continues to provide top quality performance, periodically clean the machine. CLEANING THE DOCUMENT GLASS AND AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER If the document glass or document backplate sheet becomes dirty, the dirt will appear as dirty spots, colored lines, or white lines in the scanned image. Always keep these parts clean. Wipe the parts with a clean, soft cloth. If necessary, moisten the cloth with water or a small amount of neutral detergent. After wiping with the moistened cloth, wipe the parts dry with a clean dry cloth. Document glass Document backplate sheet Scanning area If colored lines or white lines appear in images scanned using the automatic document feeder, clean the scanning area (the thin long glass next to the document glass). To clean this area, use the glass cleaner that is stored in the automatic document feeder. After using the glass cleaner, be sure to return it to its storage position. Examples of lines in the image MAINTENANCE Warning Do not use a flammable spray to clean the machine. If gas from the spray comes in contact with hot electrical components or the fusing unit inside the machine, fire or electrical shock may result. Do not use thinner, benzene, or similar volatile cleaning agents to clean the machine. These may degrade or discolor the housing. Black lines White lines
