As a part of our policy of continuous improvement, SHARP reserves the right to make
design and specification changes for product improvement without prior notice. The
performance specification figures indicated are nominal values of production units.
There may be some deviations from these values in individual units.
Important safety information
Be sure to save these instructions!
For your safety, if any of your equipment is not operating properly or should any
physical damage occur to the equipment where internal parts may become
exposed, the equipment should be immediately disconnected from the phone line
and then the power line and returned to a SHARP authorised Service Centre for
inspection, repair, or disposal.
In Australia, installing or modifying telephone lines should only be done by an ACA
licensed serviceman. In New Zealand, installing or modifying telephone lines
should be done in accordance with Telecom wiring practices.
This facsimile machine is designed for use in Australia and New Zealand only.
When using your facsimile equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including
the following:
• Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not described in
this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• This machine must only be connected to a 230-240 V, 50 Hz, earthed (3-prong)
outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine and
invalidate the warranty.
• Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. For example,
do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub,
in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Take care not to spill any liquids
on the machine.
• Use only the power cord provided with the facsimile machine. Do not use an AC
extension cord.
• Unplug the machine from the telephone socket and then the power outlet and
consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur:
- Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been
exposed to rain or water.
- The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises.
- The power cord is frayed or damaged.
- The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged.
all.bookPage3Wednesday,February19,20031:34PM

• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine
where people may walk on the power cord.
• Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This
could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that
you cannot safely remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service
representative.
• Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine
could be seriously damaged if it falls.
• Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm.
There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
• Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
• The power outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily
accessible.
Important:
• This facsimile machine is not designed for use on a line which has call waiting,
call forwarding, or certain other special services offered by your telephone com-
pany. If you attempt to use the fax machine in conjunction with any of these ser-
vices, you may experience errors during transmission and reception of facsimile
messages.
• This machine is not compatible with digital telephone systems.

WARNING NOTICE:
NO calls can be made to or from this fax machine during a mains power failure.
WARNING: Australian Communications Authority (ACA) regulations state that no
unauthorised changes or modifications to this equipment are permitted.
Note: Complies with ACA and NZ TELECOM standard AS/NZS3548 regarding emission of
electromagnetic interference.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against interference in an
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause interference. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit to that which the
receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
For Australia: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment is written on the
back of the machine. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers (REN's) on your
telephone line should not exceed 3 to assure correct service from your telephone company.
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR NEW ZEALAND USERS
Please note:
The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has
accepted that the item complies with the minimum conditions for connection to its network. It
indicates no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty.
Above all, it provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with another
item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that any
product is compatible with all of Telecom's network services.
This equipment shall not be set up to make automatic calls to the Telecom `111' Emergency
Service.
To avoid telephone charges for local calls, be sure to store numbers without area code in your
auto-dial locations.
This equipment may not provide for the effective hand-over of a call to another device
connected to the same line.

Connecting the power cord
Connect the female end of the power cord to the fax machine as shown. Insert
the male end into a 230-240 V, 50 Hz, earthed (3-prong) AC outlet.
Important!
The fax machine requires its own dedicated power outlet. The power outlet
must not be shared with any other devices. In particular, do not use an
extension cord to connect multiple devices to the outlet.
♦The power outlet must be installed near the machine and must be easily
accessible.
♦When disconnecting the machine, unplug the telephone line cord before
unplugging the power cord.
Note: If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we
recommend that you install surge protectors for the power and telephone lines.
Surge protectors can be purchased at most telephone specialty stores.
Press the power
switch to turn on
the power.

1. Installation
Connecting the telephone line cord
Insert one end of the telephone line cord into the adaptor. Insert the other end
of the line cord into the socket on the back of the machine marked TEL. LINE.
Plug the adaptor into the telephone socket on the wall.
Note for Australia: The fax machine is set for touch-tone dialling. If you are on a
pulse dial (rotary) line, you must set the fax machine for pulse dialling by changing
Option Setting 22. See page 104. (In New Zealand, only tone dialling is used.)
Moving your fax and reconnecting
Should it be necessary to move your fax to a new location, first disconnect the
telephone line cord before disconnecting the power lead. When reconnecting,
it is necessary to connect the power lead before connecting the telephone line
cord.
Connecting a telephone (optional)
If desired, you can connect a telephone to the TEL. SET socket on the back of
the machine.
For Australia
For New Zealand
Note: In New Zealand, not all
standard telephones will respond to
incoming ringing when connected to
the TEL. SET socket on the machine.

protrusion on the left side of the machine goes into the hole on the left side of
the ADF exit tray ➋. Pull out the tray extension ➌.
Attaching the received document tray
Slide the received document tray into the machine as shown. When it stops,
lift the end slightly and push in so that the tray locks into place.

Verification Stamp option
Note: This feature is available as an option. Consult your dealer if you wish to
use this feature.
When transmitting a document, you can have the fax machine stamp each
document page as it is scanned. After scanning, you can check to see if all
documents have been stamped to verify that no double feeds occurred. (A
double feed occurs when two pages are fed through the scanner at once,
which means that one of the pages is not scanned.)
To use this function, have your dealer install the Verification Stamp option,
and then set Option Setting 29 to ON as explained on page 105.
