MAINS PLUG WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

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 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 , 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.

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.

Note

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.

CAUTION: Do not install the machine in a location with poor air circulation.

A small amount of ozone is created inside the machine during printing. The amount of ozone created is not sufficient to be harmful; however, an unpleasant odor may be noticed during large copy runs, and thus the machine should be installed in a room with a ventilation fan or windows that provide sufficient air circulation. (The odor may occasionally cause headaches.) * Install the machine so that people are not directly exposed to exhaust from the machine. If installed near a window, ensure

that the machine is not exposed to direct sunlight.

Connect the machine 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.

MAIN FEATURES

High-speed laser copying

• First-copy time*1 at 600 x 300 dpi*2 is only 7.2 seconds.

• Copying speed is 20 (MX-M200D) or 16 (MX-M160D) copies per minute. This provides a big boost to workplace productivity.

*1 Measured after the machine has warmed up following power-on, copying using the document glass (A4 (8-1/2" x 11") paper

fed from machine tray 1). The first-copy time may vary depending on machine operating conditions and ambient conditions such as temperature and power voltage.

*2 "dpi" ("dots per inch") is a unit that is used to measure resolution. Resolution indicates how much detail can be reproduced in

a printed or scanned image.

High-quality digital image

• High-quality copying at 600 dpi is performed.

• In addition to automatic exposure adjustment, two exposure modes can be selected: "TEXT" for text-only originals, and "PHOTO" for photographs. The exposure can be adjusted to five levels in each mode.

•

Photo mode allows clear copying of originals with delicate halftones such as monochrome photos and colour photos.

Enhanced copying features

• The zoom function can be used to reduce or enlarge copies from 25% to 400% in increments of 1%. (When the SPF is used, the zoom copy ratio range is 50% to 200%.)

• Up to 999 copies can be made of an original scanned just once. (This can be changed to a maximum of 99 copies in the system settings.)

• The system settings allow functions to be selected and managed to meet your specific needs. For example, access to the machine can be controlled by enabling audit mode.

• It will take about 45 seconds for the machine to warm up.

• When the power switch is turned to the "ON" position, the message "System check." will appear in the message display and warm-up will start.

Once the copier has finished warming up, the message display will change to "Ready to copy." and the START indicator will light up to indicate that copying is possible. Copy settings can be selected during warm-up.

• If auditing mode has been enabled (page 79), the message "Enter your account number." will appear after warming up. Once a valid account number has been entered, the message display will change to "Ready to copy." and copying will be possible.

Note

• If the fax option is installed, be sure to keep the power turned on. Faxes cannot be received when the power is turned off.

• The machine is set at the factory to return all settings to the default settings one minute after a copy job is finished (auto clear function). When the settings return to the default settings, any functions that were selected are cancelled. The auto clear time can be changed in the system settings. (Page 83)

POWER OFF

Make sure that the machine is not in operation and then turn the power switch to the "OFF" position.

If the power switch is turned off while the machine is in operation, a misfeed may occur and the job that was in progress will be cancelled.

Power save modes

The machine has two power save modes to reduce power consumption, thereby helping to reduce environmental pollution and conserve resources.

Preheat mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a low power consumption state if the duration of time set in the system settings elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. In preheat mode the display turns off. Normal operation automatically resumes when a key on the operation panel is pressed, an original is placed, or a print job or fax is received.

Auto power shut-off mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less power than preheat mode if the duration of time set in the system settings elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. During auto power shut-off, only the START indicator blinks. To restore the machine to normal operation, press the [START] key. Normal operation also resumes automatically when a print job or fax is received or scanning is begun from a computer. While auto power shut-off is in effect, pressing a key other than the [START] key will have no effect.

Note

The preheat mode activation time and the "Auto power shut-off timer" can be changed in the system settings. (Page 85)

Page 21

BEFORE USING THE PRODUCT

Special paper

Follow these guidelines when using special paper.

• Use SHARP recommended transparency film and label sheets. Using other than SHARP recommended paper

may result in misfeeds or smudges on the output.

• There are many varieties of special paper available on the market, and some cannot be used with this machine.

Before using special paper, contact your authorised service representative.

• Before using other than SHARP recommended paper, make a test copy to see if the paper is suitable.

LOADING PAPER

Make sure that the machine is not copying or printing, and then follow these steps to load paper.

Loading paper in a tray

Gently lift and pull out the paper tray.

If you are adding the same size of paper, go to step 3. If you are loading a different size of paper, go to the next step.

Adjust the plates in the tray to the

length and width of the paper.

Plate B

Plate A

• The plate A is a slide-type guide. Grasp the locking knob on the guide and slide the guide to the indicator line of the paper to be loaded.

• The plate B is an insert-type guide. Remove it and then insert it at the indicator line of the paper to be loaded.

• When using 11" x 17" sized paper store the plate B in the slot at the left front of the paper tray.

Fan the paper.

Fan the paper well before loading it. If the paper is not fanned, double-feeds or misfeeds may occur.

Place the paper in the tray.

Note

• Do not load paper higher than the line on the tray (up to 250 sheets).

• Make sure that the paper fits under the tab on the right side of the tray.

• Make sure the stack of paper is straight before loading it. When adding paper, take the remaining paper out and combine it into a single stack with the new paper.

Push the pressure plate down.

Push the centre of the pressure plate down until it locks into place.

Gently push the paper tray back in.

Push the upper paper tray in completely.

Note

If the size of the loaded paper is different from the size shown in the display, be sure to follow the procedure in "CHANGING THE PAPER SIZE SETTING OF A TRAY" (page

21) to change the paper size setting of the

tray.

Page 22

BEFORE USING THE PRODUCT

Loading paper in the bypass tray

Open the bypass tray.

Pull out the bypass tray extension to load B4 and A3 (8-1/2" x 14" and 11" x 17") size paper.

Set the bypass tray guides to the

paper width.

Insert the copy paper (print side

down) all the way into the bypass tray.

Make sure that the print side of the paper is face down. To prevent a misfeed, verify once more that the bypass tray guides are adjusted to the width of the paper.

Note

• If you loaded paper in the bypass tray, press the [PAPER SELECT] key to select the bypass tray.

• If you load thick paper in the bypass tray, press the [PAPER] key until "EXTRA" is highlighted. The paper type is set to thick paper. The setting is cleared when "Auto clear" works or the [CA] key is pressed. For restrictions on paper types and weights, see "PAPER" (page 18).

Important points when inserting paper in the bypass tray

• Up to 100 sheets of standard copy paper can be set in the bypass tray.

• Be sure to place A6 and B6 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2") size paper and envelopes horizontally as shown in the following diagram.

• When loading envelopes, make sure that they are straight and flat and do not have loosely glued construction flaps (not the closure flap).

• Special papers except SHARP recommended transparency film, labels, and envelopes must be fed one sheet at a time through the bypass tray.

• When adding paper, first remove any paper remaining in the tray, combine it with the paper to be added and then reload as a single stack. The paper to be added must be the same size and type as the paper already in the tray.

• Do not use paper that is smaller than the original. This may cause smudges or unclean images.

• Do not use paper that has already been printed on by a laser printer or plain paper fax machine. This may cause smudges or unclean images.

Envelopes

Do not use the following envelopes, as misfeeds will occur.

• Envelopes with metal tabs, clasps, strings, holes, or windows.

• Envelopes with rough fibers, carbon paper, or glossy surfaces.

• Envelopes with two or more flaps.

• Envelopes with tape, film, or paper attached to the flap.

• Envelopes with a fold in the flap.

• Envelopes with glue on the flap to be moistened for sealing.

• Envelopes with labels or stamps.

• Envelopes that are slightly inflated with air.

• Envelopes with glue protruding from the seal area.

• Envelopes with part of the seal area peeled off.

Originals from A5 to A3 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 11" x 17") in size and 56 can be used. A maximum of 40 pages can be placed at once. For originals that are B4 or larger (8-1/2" x 14" or larger), a maximum of 30 pages can be placed at once.

/m2 to 90 g/m2 (15 lbs. to 24 lbs.) in weight

Note

• Make sure that there are no paper clips or staples on the original.

•

Straighten curled originals before placing them in the document feeder tray. Curled originals may cause misfeeds.

• If the margin shift function is being used, the margin shift settings may need to be changed. (Page 68)

Originals that cannot be used in the SPF

The following originals cannot be used: These may cause misfeeds or smudging and unclear images.

•

Transparencies, tracing paper, other transparent or translucent paper, and photographs.

• Carbon paper, thermal paper.

• Originals that are creased, folded, or torn.

• Glued originals, cut-out originals.

• Originals with binder holes.

•

Originals printed using an ink ribbon (thermal transfer printing), originals on thermal transfer paper.

Points concerning the position of the printed copy image

Even if the same original is copied onto the same type of paper, differences in the original size, scanning location (document glass or document feeder tray), selected paper tray, enlargement/reduction ratio, and other conditions may cause the position of the printed copy image on the paper to vary. As shown in the following example, when an original smaller than the paper size (for example, A5 original and A3 paper) is copied from the document glass, the position of the printed copy image on the paper is different when paper from tray 1 is used (1) and paper from the bypass tray is used (2).

MAKING A COPY DARKER OR LIGHTER

The copy exposure can be adjusted as needed to the original. Three exposure modes are available: "AUTO", "TEXT" and "PHOTO". When "TEXT" or "PHOTO" is selected, the exposure can be manually adjusted to 5 levels.

Auto

This is the default exposure mode. In this mode, the characteristics of an original being copied are "read" by the exposure system and exposure adjustments are made automatically. The exposure level is lowered for coloured areas and background shadows.

Text/photo

TEXT: This mode enhances low density areas of an original and suppresses high-density background areas to

make text more legible.

PHOTO: This mode provides clearer reproduction of halftones in photos.

SELECTING THE TRAY

By default the auto paper select function (page 47) operates, and thus the appropriate tray is automatically selected when the original is placed on the document glass or in the document feeder tray, or when the original size is specified. If you wish to use a tray other than the automatically selected tray (for example you wish to enlarge or reduce the copy or use the bypass tray), press the [PAPER SELECT] key to select the desired tray.

Note

• If the desired paper size does not appear, change the paper in a tray to the desired paper size. (Page 21)

• Automatic ratio selection (page 47) does not operate when the bypass tray is selected.

Auto tray switching

If the tray runs out of paper during copying and there is another tray with the same size of paper and the same feeding orientation (horizontal or vertical), the other tray is automatically selected and copying continues. Auto tray switching can be disabled if needed. (Page 22)

SETTING THE NUMBER OF COPIES

Press the numeric keys to set the number of copies.

WXYZ

• The set number of copies appears in the display. A maximum of 999 copies (factory default setting) can be set.

• A single copy can be made even if "0" is displayed.

Note

• If you enter the wrong number, press the [C] key and enter the correct number.

• The limit for the number of copies can be changed in the system settings. (Page 88)

Important note when making a large number of copies

If the number of sheets output to the centre tray exceed its maximum capacity (250 sheets when a job separator tray kit is not installed, 150 sheets when a job separator tray kit is installed) during a copy job, the copy job will stop temporarily. If this happens, promptly remove the copies and press the [OK] key to resume copying. The copy job will step each time the number of sheets in the centre tray reach its maximum capacity. Before starting a long copy run, remove any sheets that remain in the centre tray. During output of the copy job, exercise care as the job may stop frequently due to the centre tray becoming full.

INTERRUPTING A COPY RUN

INTERRUPT

(Interrupt copying)

A copy run can be temporarily interrupted to allow another copy job to be performed. (Interrupt copying) When the other job is finished, the copy run will resume using the original copy settings.

• Interrupt copying is not possible when the document glass is being used for a copy job and "NO SORT" is selected.

• When 2 in 1 or 4 in 1 is selected, interrupt copying is not possible.

• Sort copying, 2 in 1, and 4 in 1 and automatic two-sided copying cannot be used for an interrupt copy job. Configuring settings in the system settings, use as a scanner, and fax transmission are also not possible.

Press the [INTERRUPT] key ( ).

If the [INTERRUPT] key ( ) is pressed, copying will stop and the settings will temporarily return to the default settings after the copy in progress has

FUNCTIONS

ROTATING THE IMAGE 90 DEGREES

(Rotation copy)

When "Auto paper select mode" or "automatic ratio selection" are in operation and the original is placed in a different orientation (vertical or horizontal) from the paper, the original image will be automatically rotated 90 degrees to enable correct copying onto the paper. This function is convenient for copying B4 or A3 (8-1/2" x 14" or 11" x 17") originals, which can only be placed horizontally, onto paper that is loaded vertically. The rotation copy function is initially enabled. It can be disabled in the system settings. (Page 87)

Note

• The rotation copy function cannot be used in combination with the margin shift function.

• Rotation copy will not operate when a copy is enlarged to a paper size greater than A4 (8-1/2" x 11"). In this case, place the original in the same orientation as the paper.

• Even if rotation copy is disabled in the system settings, rotation copy will function when the 2 in 1 or 4 in 1 function is selected (page 66).

SYSTEM SETTINGS GUIDE

PURPOSE OF THE SYSTEM SETTINGS

The system settings are used by the administrator of the machine to enable or disable functions to suit the needs of your workplace. This manual explains only the system settings that are common to all the functions of the machine, (copy, fax, printer and network scanner functions), as well as system settings that are specifically for the copy function. For programs that are specifically for the fax function, printer function, or network scanner function, see the following manuals:

• Fax function: Operation manual (for facsimile), Chapter 8, "SYSTEM SETTINGS"

• Printer function / scanner function: Operation manual (for printer and scanner), Chapter 4, "SYSTEM SETTINGS"

• Network printer function: Operation manual (for network printer), Chapter 5 "SYSTEM SETTINGS"

• Network scanner function:

To use the system settings, the administrator password must be entered.

PROGRAMS RELATED TO ALL FUNCTIONS OF THE MACHINE (COPY, FAX, PRINTER, AND NETWORK

Operation manual (for network scanner), Chapter 3 "SYSTEM SETTINGS"

SCANNER FUNCTIONS)

These programs are used to enable auditing mode, adjust power consumption, and manage peripheral devices. Auditing mode can be enabled separately for the copy, network printer, fax, and network scanner functions. When auditing mode is enabled for a function, a valid account number must be entered in order to use the function. (If a valid account number is not entered, the function cannot be used.) When auditing mode is enabled for the printer function, an account number must be entered at the user's computer when the print command is selected. (Depending on the system settings, a job may be printed even if an incorrect account number is entered, and thus care must be taken when managing printer page counts.) If "CANCEL JOBS OF INVALID ACCOUNTS" is enabled in the system settings, printing will be prohibited if an invalid account number is entered.)

PROGRAMS FOR COPY MODE

These programs are used to change the factory default copy settings to settings that better suit the needs of your workplace. When auditing mode is enabled for the copy function,

• A valid account number must be entered to make copies. (Copying is not possible unless a valid account number is entered.)

• A count is kept of the number of copies made by each account. This allows you to monitor copier usage by account. (The counts can be totaled.) * The account number is a five-digit number.

• A limit can be set for the number of copies that can be made by each account.

PROGRAMMING AN ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD

The administrator password is a 5-digit number that must be entered in order to access the system settings. The administrator (administrator of the machine) should change the default administrator password that was set at the factory to a new 5-digit number. Be sure to remember the new administrator password, as it must be entered each time the system settings are subsequently used. (Only one administrator password can be programmed.) See page 101 for the factory default administrator password. To change the administrator password, see "PROGRAMMING AN ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD" (page 76).

3.HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

Most Important Hazards and Effects of the Products

Human Health Effects : There are no anticipated carcinogenic effects from exposure based on animal tests

performed using toner. When used as intended according to instructions, studies do not indicate any symptoms of fibrosis will occur.

Environmental Effects : not toxic to aquatic organisms

Specific Hazards : Dust explosion (like most finely divided organic powders) Directive 1999/45/EC(Europe) : Not classified as dangerous

4.FIRST-AID MEASURES

Route(s) of Entry : Inhalation? Skin? Ingestion?

Yes No Possible but very unusual.

Inhalation : Remove to fresh air. If symptoms occur, consult medical personnel. Skin Contact : Wash with soap and water for 15 minutes or until particle is removed.

If irritation does occur, consult medical personnel.

Eye Contact : Flush eyes immediately with water for 15 minutes. If irritation does occur, consult medical personnel. Ingestion : Rinse with water and drink several glasses of water. If irritation or discomfort does occur, consult

medical personnel.

5.FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Extinguishing Media : Water, CO2, foam and dry chemicals Special Fire Fighting Procedures : None Fire and Explosion Hazards : Toner material, like most finely divided organic powders, may form an explosive

mixture.

Acute Toxicity

Ingestion(oral) : LD

> 2500mg/kg (Rats)

Inhalation : No data Eye irritation : Not an irritant (Rabbits) Skin irritation : Not an irritant (Rabbits) Skin sensitizer : No sensitization

Mutagenicity : Negative (Ames Test) Carcinogenicity : In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human

carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.

MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Page : 4/4

Date Issued : Apr. 1, 2009

MSDS No. F-01801

Chronic Effect : In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to moderate degree of

lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of the rats in the high concentration (16mg/m group, and a minimal to mild degree of fibrosis was noted in 22% of the animals in the middle (4mg/m exposure group, the most relevant level to potential human exposures.
