is the ideal candidate for the
modern workplace

Superior design for modern workgroups

Powerful and versatile, yet surprisingly compact the new
MX-B382 has everything you need to create, copy and
manage documents in the workplace.

Designed to deliver its best quality even at its top speed of
38 ppm, the MX-B382 meets all the demands of the modern
office. Fast, high quality black & white printing and copying,
network colour scanning, powerful security and a range of
finishing options: they all come together in a robust A4 MFP
for everyday use.

What’s more, we’ve placed a special emphasis on ease of
use and productivity.

It comes with a 7.0 inch colour touch screen control panel,
for example, which not only has thumbnail previews for
intuitive control but can also be customised with different
colours and shortcut keys. In addition, the MX-B382 can
run Sharp OSA® (Open Systems Architecture) applications to
automate the capture and distribution of documents, as well
as other manual tasks.

Optimum efficiency

Many MFPs are fast – some of the time. But the MX-B382 is
fast all of the time. In fact, it can race along at 38 pages per
minute even at its maximum (1,200 x 1,200 dpi) image quality.

But there’s a lot more to the MX-B382 than impressive output
speeds. The high speed scanner can process as many as
33 originals per minute (in colour as well as in black & white),
the paper supply can be expanded right the way up to
2,100 sheets simply by adding extra paper drawers, plus
there’s a wide range of useful productivity features included
at no extra cost.

Advanced energy-saving technology

The Energy Star certified MX-B382 is designed to fully support
your environmental objectives. We’ve reduced the warm up
time to less than 50 seconds and limited power consumption
in standby mode to less than 1 Watt. That’s just enough to
receive a fax.

The result is a versatile A4 MFP – ideal for everyday use – that
has an impressively low Typical Electrical Consumption of just

5.72 kWh for an average week.

MFP will help boost your
productivity and efficiency

Maximum productivity

The new MX-B382 builds on the success of Sharp’s other
office MFPs by incorporating some of our very latest
productivity-enhancing technologies. Take scanning, for
instance.

The MX-B382’s advanced scanning capabilities let you
capture and distribute information throughout your business,
unlocking its true (but often hard to share) value.

You can scan documents directly to your desktop, a folder on
your network or FTP server, or simply a USB memory stick. It’s
also easy to scan to multiple email addresses: just browse the
address book, select, and send.

Documents can be scanned into your choice of TIFF, PDF,
encrypted PDF, JPEG or XPS formats and, if you send a copy to
your PC, you can use Sharpdesk document management
software. Sharpdesk lets you store and manage files of virtually
any format, and effortlessly combine them into new multipage
documents.

Impressive image quality

Print, copy or scan – everyone in the office will enjoy excellent
quality from the MX-B382; job after job, day after day.

The specially formulated developer and toner deliver enhanced
image quality across a useful range of media, at a print
resolution of 1,200 x 1,200 dpi for the consistently accurate
reproduction of faint lines and fine details.

With Sharp, there’s no fuss and no special features to learn:
just easy, convenient quality that can be mastered in moments.

Extra value features

We’ve taken some of the most successful features of our
departmental A3 machines and included them on the
MX-B382 as standard. It has two USB ports, for example, for
easy walkup printing (and for capturing scans) without the
need for a PC, and you can even print directly from popular
file formats such as XPS, PDF, TIFF and JPEG without using a
printer driver.

Convenient filing

The MX-B382 comes with an 80 GB hard drive on which
you can store jobs (neatly indexed with thumbnail views) for
later reuse. Choose from Quick Filing for temporary storage,
Advanced Filing for long-term archiving, or a Main Folder for
convenient workgroup sharing. You can also store your
documents in private, password protected folders.

A fast, 50-sheet Reversing Single Pass Feeder makes two-sided
copying quick and efficient, the first copy out time is just 8.0
seconds*, it comes with Job Build for managing high volume
copying and there’s an 80 GB hard drive for storing jobs and
electronically sorting them.

It all adds up to a versatile, highly productive MFP which still
manages to be one of the most compact in its class.

* Best achieved time based on A4 sheets, feeding from first paper drawer, using

document glass, when machine is ready. May vary depending on machine

condition and operating environment.
