CAUTIONS
Follow the cautions below when using this copier.
●
The fusing area is hot. Exercise care in this area when removing misfed paper.
●
Do not look directly at the light source. Doing so may damage your eyes.
●
Place the copier on a firm, level surface.
●
Do not install the copier in a humid or dusty location.
●
When the copier is not used for a long time, for example, during prolonged holidays, turn the power
switch off and remove the power cord from the outlet.
●
When moving the copier, be sure to turn the power switch off and remove the power cord from the
outlet.
●
Do not cover the copier with a dust cover, cloth or plastic film while the power is on. Doing so may
prevent heat dissipation, damaging the copier.
●
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may
result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.
Cautions on laser
Wave length 785 nm ±10 nm
Pulse times (8.141 µs ±0.1 µs)/7 mm
Output power 0.2 mW ±0.02 mW
Required in Appendix ZB of BS EN 60950 — United Kingdom
The mains lead of this equipment is already fitted with a mains plug which is either a non-rewireable
(moulded) or a rewireable type. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved fuse
to BS1362 marked or and of the same rating as the one removed from the plug must
be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse on the moulded plug. Never use the plug without
the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied
either cut-off the moulded plug (if this type is fitted) or remove by undoing the screws if a rewireable
plug is fitted and fit an appropriate type observing the wiring code below.
DANGER: The fuse should be removed from the cut-off plug and the plug destroyed immediately
and disposed of in a safe manner. Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted
elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
As the colours of the wires in this mains lead may not correspond with coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured GREEN-AND YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug
which is marked with the letter E, or by the safety earth symbol Å@, or coloured green or greenand-yellow.
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter
N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter L or coloured red.
If you have any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
WARNING: THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.

●
High-quality copying at 600 dpi is performed.
●
In addition to the automatic exposure mode, the manual exposure can be adjusted in five steps.
●
The photo mode copying function allows clear copying of delicate halftone original images such as monochrome
photos and colour photos. Photo mode is adjustable in five steps.
Substantial copying features
●
Zoom copying from 50% to 200% in 1% increments can be performed.
●
Continuous copying of maximum 99 sheets can also be performed.
●
Useful special features such as the XY zoom, black and white reverse, and dual page copy are available.
●
User programs allow setting/modification of functions for customer needs. Also the user programs allow the internal
auditor to be controlled.
●
Automatic two-sided copying can be performed.
Scan once/ Print many (one-sided copying only)
●
The copier is equipped with a 1-page memory buffer. This memory allows the copier to scan an original once only and
make up to 99 copies. This feature allows for improved workflow, reduced operating noise from the copier and reduced
wear and tear on the scanning mechanism, which provides for a higher reliability.

GETTING STARTED
COPIER INSTALLATION
Improper installation may damage the copier. Please note the following
during initial installation and whenever the copier is moved.
If the copier is moved from a cool place to a warm place, condensation may form inside the copier.
Operation in this condition will cause poor copy quality and malfunctions. Leave the copier at room
temperature for at least 2 hours before use.
Copier installation
Do not install your copier 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.
The copier should be installed near an accessible power outlet
for easy connection.
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 this copier’s power supply requirements, see the name plate
located on the back of the unit.
Connect the copier to a power outlet which is not used
for other electric appliances. If a lighting fixture is
connected to the same outlet, the light may flicker.
Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for
servicing and proper ventilation.
10 cm
A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier 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 odour, it is advisable to
place the copier in a ventilated area.
8
CAUTIONS ON HANDLING
Be careful in handling the copier as follows to maintain the performance of
this copier.
Do not drop the copier, subject it to shock or strike it against any
object.
Store spare toner cartridges in a cool dry place without removing
from the package before use.
If they are exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat, poor copies
may result.
GETTING STARTED
Cautions on handling
Do not touch the photoconductive drum (green portion).
Scratches or smudges on the drum will cause dirty copies.

GETTING STARTED
LOADING COPY PAPER
To save space, this copier has been designed with adjustable front-loading
trays, which are easily opened for paper loading. For best results, use only
SHARP recommended paper. (See page 50.)
The paper required ( ) indicator will light up when there is no copy paper
in the selected paper feed station, or when the selected paper tray is not
installed or is improperly installed.
Loading copy paper
When the paper size is changed in a paper tray, the size
of the paper must be entered by steps 8 through 11 on
page 12. If not, the edges of copies may become smudged
with toner. Also, the AUTO PAPER SELECT and the AUTO
IMAGE features will not function properly.
Gently lift and pull out the paper tray until it stops.

contrast of the copied images by reducing the effect of coloured or
shaded background areas. See page 27 to adjust the automatic exposure
level.
