AR-M350 PRODUCT OUTLINE 1-1
[1] PRODUCT OUTLINE
A. Scanner unit with duplex SPF (AR-EF1)
This unit is an option scanner unit for the laser printer AR-P350/P450/
M350/M450.
By installing this unit to the above laser printer (installation of the
AR-RK1 is also required), the printer can work as a digital multi-function
device with the following functions:
1) Copy function
2) Network scanner function
(The AR-NS2, network scanner kit, is required.)
3) Fax function (The AR-FX5, fax extending kit, is required.)
B. Multi-function controller (AR-M11)
This unitis a multi-function controller forthe laser printer AR-P350/P450.
When installing the AR-EF1 to the above laser printer, the printer
controller must be replaced with this multi-function controller.
C. Scanner rack (AR-RK1)
This rack is required when installing the scanner unit (AR-EF1) with
duplex DSPF to the laser printer AR-P350/P450/M350/M450.
To install this rack, the machine must be equipped with the large capacity
paper feed desk (AR-D13) or the 3 stage paper feed desk (AR-D14).
D. AR-M350/M450
This machine is a version ofthe AR-P350/P450, andis equipped with
the multi-function controller as standard equipments.
To install this model, the large capacity paper feed desk (AR-D13) or the
3 stage paper feed desk (AR-D14) is required.
* For the items which are not specified in this Service Manual,
refer to the AR-P350/P450 Service Manual.
