HEIGHTENED SECURIT HELPS PROTECT OUR BUSINESS
ENVIRONMENTALL FRIENDL
nnovative document and device protection helps ensure
confidentiality of information as well as authorized access
and control of all functions.
Designed with a trong Commitment to Protecting the Environment
The MX-2600N and MX-3100N document systems utilize Sharp’s
second generation micro-fine toner technology, which offers a lower
consumption rate than conventional toners. This also results in less
packaging material and longer replacement intervals. Additionally,
all Sharp supplies are packaged using fully recyclable materials.
Power consumption on the MX-2600N and MX-3100N is among the
lowest in the industry and supports two different energy saving modes
to reduce or shut off power after a set interval. All Sharp document
systems belong to the EnergyStar®program, and RoHS program.
An Economical, Low Maintenance Color Document
ystem That Makes ense
The MX-2600N and MX-3100N are designed to accommodate both large
and small office environments. With a compact wingless design, the
footprint of each base model is less than 25" x 28". Our new long-life
consumable parts and supplies minimize service intervals and down time,
resulting in lower operating costs.
harp’s Environmental Leadership
Reinforcing our commitment to the environment, in 2007, Sharp received the
Excellence in Partnership Green Contractor Award and the Evergreen Award
from the U.S. Government’s General Services Administration and the
Coalition for Government Procurement.
The Green Contractor Award recognizes contractors that have
made the best overall commitment to the environment by
offering environmentally friendly products and services or
adhering to environmentally sound manufacturing procedures.
The Evergreen Award identifies environmentally-friendly businesses
and their efforts in recycling and waste reduction practices.
Please visit www.sharpusa.com/environment to learn more
about our environmental leadership.
Toner Recycling Program
As part of our commitment to preserving the environment,
Sharp offers customers a toner recycling program for all Sharp copiers
and MFP products. Sharp encourages customers to recycle their used
toner cartridges by providing a pre-paid shipping label for their return
to our facility. Please visit www.sharpusa.com/recycle to learn more.
To help protect your data, the MX-2600N/3100N Series offers several layers
of security, making Sharp the optimum choice to protect employee privacy
and intellectual property. As the leader in office equipment security, Sharp
makes it easy for any business or government entity to safely deploy digital
copying, printing, scanning and faxing.
Authority Groups and Access Control
Advanced account management enables administrators to set authority
groups for access to features of the MX-2600N/3100N Series. Administrators
can control which department, for instance, has full access to color copying,
printing, scanning and/or fax. Walk up users enter a code, Local Name and
Password, or LDAP User Authentication to access their features assigned to
their group. Users can also login utilizing a human interface device (H D)
such as a Smartcard or Common Access Card (CAC).*
Data Erase and Encryption
To help protect your data, the MX-2600N/3100N Series offers an optional
data security kit that encrypts document data using AE (Advanced
encryption standard) encryption. Additionally, the data security kit erases
the temporary memory on the hard drive by overwriting the encrypted data
up to seven times, offering an unprecedented level of assurance.
Network canning Access
To help protect your network from unauthorized e-mail communications,
the MX-2600N/3100N Series supports User Authentication, requiring
users to login before performing any network scanning operations.
Control Device Access Over the Network
To help restrict access to the device over the network, the MX-2600N/3100N
Series offers Psec, SMB and extended support for L Encryption (Secure
Sockets Layer), IP/MAC address filtering, EEE 802.1x authentication,
protocol enable/disable and port management for maximum security.
Documents Remain Confidential
To help protect your printed documents from unauthorized viewing, the
MX-2600N/3100N Series offers encrypted PDF files for printing and scanning
as well as Confidential Printing that requires users to enter a P N code in
order to print a queued document. Additionally, ecure Fax Release ensures
received fax documents are held in memory until an authorized user enters a
P N code. So compliance with healthcare regulations such as H PAA is easier.
Tracking and Auditing Information
Legislation and industry policies require companies to be more aware of
information flow from their offices. Sharp offers both built-in and additional
hardware/software which allows users to control, access and track usage of
each device on the network.
These scalable security offerings aim to protect your intellectual property,
preserve confidential information and help your business to meet
regulatory requirements, such as the Health nsurance Portability and
Accountability Act (H PAA), and the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLB). For
