SUPPLIES
Standard supplies for this product that can replaced by the user include paper, toner 
cartridges, and staple cartridges for the finisher.
Be sure to use only SHARP-specified products for the toner cartridges, finisher staple cartridge, and transparency film.
Proper storage
Store the supplies in a location that is:
 clean and dry,
 at a stable temperature,
 not exposed to direct sunlight.
Store paper in the wrapper and lying flat.
Paper stored in packages standing up or out of the wrapper may curl or become damp, resulting in paper misfeeds.
Storing toner cartridges
Store a new toner cartridge box horizontally with the top side up. Do not store a toner cartridge 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.
Staple cartridge
The finisher require the following staple cartridge:
MX-SCX1 (for finisher)
Approx. 5000 per cartridge x 3 cartridges
Supply of spare parts and consumables
The supply of spare parts for repair of the machine is guaranteed for at least 7 years 
following the termination of production. Spare parts are those parts of the machine which may break down within the 
scope of the ordinary use of the product, whereas those parts which normally exceed the life of the product are not to be 
considered as spare parts. Consumables too, are available for 7 years following the termination of production.
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.

NAMES AND LOCATIONS OF TRAYS
The names of the trays are as follows.
THE MEANING OF R IN PAPER SIZES
