INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Improper installation may damage this product. Please note the following during initial installation and whenever the
machine is moved.
1.The machine should be installed near an
accessible power outlet for easy connection.
2.Be sure to connect the power cord only to a
power outlet that meets the specified voltage and
current requirements. Also make certain the
outlet is properly grounded.
●For the power supply requirements, see the
name plate on the back of the main unit.
3.Do not install your machine in areas that are:
●damp, humid, or very dusty
●exposed to direct sunlight
●poorly ventilated
●subject to extreme temperature or humidity
changes, e.g., near an air conditioner or heater.
4.Be sure to allow the required space around the
machine for servicing and proper ventilation.
A small amount of ozone is produced within the machine during operation. The emission level is insufficient to
cause any health hazard.
NOTE:
The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m3) calculated as an 8 hr. time-
weighted average concentration.
However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the copier
in a ventilated area.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a SHARP digital multifunction copier.
Please read this manual before using the machine. In particular, be sure to read "INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS"
before using the machine.
Please keep this manual close at hand for reference whenever necessary.
This manual provides general information on using the machine, such as routine maintenance and how to load paper
and remove misfeeds. It also explains how to use the copier and document filing functions.
Separate manuals have been provided for the fax function, printer function, and network scanner function.
■Original and paper sizes
This machine allows use of standard sizes in both the inch and AB systems.
These are shown in the tables below.
■The meaning of "R" in original and paper size indications
Some original and paper sizes can be placed in either the portrait or landscape orientations. To differentiate
between landscape and portrait, the landscape orientation size indication will contain an "R". These are indicated
as 8-1/2" x 11"R, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2"R, A4R, B5R, etc. Sizes that can be placed only in the landscape orientation (11"
x 17", 8-1/2" x 14", 8-1/2" x 13", A3, B4) do not contain the "R" in their size indication.
