The Overall Multifunctional Efficiency Your Office Needs

This versatile monochrome MFP is a smart all-in-one document solution for the upwardly mobile small business. Naturally, it excels in its core role of copying, printing, and scanning documents with text and images. But beyond that, it offers flexibility in the form of upgradeable hardware and software. The MFP is designed to put sophisticated document functionality in the hands of every office user. End result: greater productivity for you and your team. 

Convenient Full-Colour Scanning 

This MFP works as a full-colour A3 scanner. In addition to scanning via a TWAIN driver, the MFP has a Button Manager function. As well as letting you adjust settings such as scan resolution, this function allows you to assign applications such as e-mail, Microsoft® Word, and OCR to six Scan Menu buttons on the MFP’s control panel. Scanning, data transfer, and application start-up can all be done automatically. Operation is quick and easy—simply tap the Scan Mode button, select a pre-registered Scan Menu button, and press Start. 

Super-Efficient Output 

This MFP delivers a fast output of 24 ppm*. The first copy comes out in just 6.4 seconds for A4 and 6.5 seconds for 8 ½" × 11", saving valuable time when you’re doing multiple short-run jobs.

Automatic Document Feeding 

An optional RSPF (reversing single pass feeder) efficiently feeds in up to 100 sheets of either one- or two-sided originals. 

Effective Paper Handling

For large-volume jobs and a wider selection of available paper sizes, the MFP can accommodate two types of extra trays that increase total paper capacity to 1,850 sheets. The MFP can accommodate heavy paper up to 200 g/m2*, expanding the range of possible printing applications. 

Printing with Sharp Technology 

The MFP incorporates Sharp’s original SPLC (Sharp Printer Language with Compression) printing technology. SPLC effectively reduces the data size of a print job, speeding up data transfer and printing while improving overall throughput.

Network Printing 

The optional AR-NB8 Network Expansion Kit upgrades the MFP to a network printer. Add the optional AR-PB10 Printer Expansion Kit for PCL 6 emulation. The further addition of the optional MX-PK10 PS Expansion Kit allows the MFP to support PostScript® 3™ emulation, giving you increased font compatibility and better graphics handling. 

ID Card Copy 

The MFP has a dedicated key for easy copying of both sides of a card (e.g., an ID or credit card) onto a single page.

2-in-1/4-in-1 Copying 

Reduce paper use by copying two or four separate pages onto a single sheet. It’s convenient, space-saving, and eco-friendly all at once.

Device Management 

Sharp Remote Device Manager* (SRDM) allows admins to remotely monitor the status of consumables in the MFP, so you can easily check for things like empty paper trays or low toner levels. *Requires optional AR-NB8. Contact a Sharp customer representative for availability and other details. 

LED Status Lamps 

Next to the control panel are two LED lamps: one red, one green. These light up to notify you—even from a distance—of the status of the machine. 

Easy-Grip Handles 

Easy-grip handles on the MFP reflect a universal design that allows the paper drawers to be grasped from the top as well as the bottom for easy opening and closing. 

Energy Efficiency 

Pressing the power save key after a job is finished immediately puts the MFP into auto power shut-off mode, further reducing your running costs.
