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.

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.

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.
1
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
2
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.
4
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.
5
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.

tray.
19
BEFORE USING THE PRODUCT
Loading paper in the bypass tray
Open the bypass tray.
1
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
2
paper width.
Insert the copy paper (print side
3
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.
