Important safety information
Be sure to save these instructions!
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:
• 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.
• 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.
3
• 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.
• 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.
• 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 socket-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 company. If you attempt to use the fax

either socket.
Make sure the handset cord goes into the socket marked with a handset symbol on the side of the machine!
14
Use the handset to make ordinary phone calls, or to transmit and receive faxes manually.
Connecting the power lead
Plug the power lead into a 230-240 V, 50 Hz, earthed (3-prong) AC outlet.
When disconnecting the fax, unplug the telephone line cord before
unplugging the power lead.
Caution: The mains outlet (socket outlet) should be installed near
the equipment and be easily accessable.
Connections
1. Installation
The machine does not have a power on/off switch, so the power is turned on and off by simply plugging in or 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 your dealer or most telephone specialty stores.
Moving your fax and reconnecting

Installing the Toner Cartridge
Installing the Toner Cartridge
The laser printer in your fax machine uses a toner cartridge and a drum cartridge. The drum cartridge comes pre-installed, and the toner cartridge must be installed.
The starter toner cartridge included with your fax can print approximately 1,875 A4-size pages at 4% page coverage.
The drum cartridge can print approximately 20,000 A4-size pages.
When replacing the drum cartridge, use a Sharp FO-29DR drum cartridge.
When replacing the toner cartridge, use a Sharp FO-29DC toner cartridge. One cartridge can print about 3,750 A4-size pages.
1. Installation
Follow the steps below to install the toner cartridge and prepare the drum cartridge.
1
Grasp the print compartment cover at both sides as shown, and pull up to
open the cover.
