ENERGY SAVE FUNCTIONS
This product has the following energy save functions that help conserve natural resources and reduce environmental
pollution.
Eco Scan Setting
Non-print functions such as image sending and document filing function can be executed while the fusing unit is kept Off.
Power Management Setting
The power management setting includes preheat mode, auto power shut-off mode, and other functions that reduce
power consumption while in a waiting state.
Preheat Mode (Low power mode)
Preheat mode automatically lowers the temperature of the fusing unit and thereby reduces power consumption if the
machine remains in the standby state for the interval of time set in "Preheat Mode Setting" in the system settings
(administrator).
This keeps the fusing unit at a lower temperature and reduces power consumption while the machine is on standby.
The machine automatically wakes up and returns to normal operation when a print job is received, a key is pressed on
the operation panel, or an original is placed.
Auto power shut-off mode (Sleep mode)
Auto power shut-off mode automatically shuts off power to the display and the fusing unit if the machine remains in the
standby state for the interval of time set in "Auto Power Shut-Off Timer" in the system settings (administrator). This
mode provides the lowest level of power consumption. Considerably more power is saved than in preheat mode,
however, the wakeup time is longer. This mode can be disabled in the system settings (administrator).
The machine automatically wakes up and resumes normal operation when a print job is received or when the blinking
[POWER SAVE] key
() is pressed.
Power ON/OFF Schedule Setting
The power ON/OFF schedule setting is a function that sets the time to turn the machine on or off, helping reduce power
consumption per day or per week. Configure this setting from [Power ON/OFF Schedule Setting] in the Web page menu.
[POWER SAVE] KEY
Press the [POWER SAVE] key () to put the machine in auto power shut-off mode or wake it up from auto power
shut-off mode. The [POWER SAVE] key

USER AUTHENTICATION
User authentication restricts the use of the machine to users that have been registered. The functions that each user is
allowed to use can be specified, allowing the machine to be customized to meet the needs of your workplace.
When the administrator of the machine has enabled user authentication, each user must log in to use the machine.
There are different types of user authentication, and each type has a different login method.
For more information, see the explanations of the login methods.
+ AUTHENTICATION BY USER NUMBER (see below)
+ AUTHENTICATION BY LOGIN NAME / PASSWORD (page 1-19)
AUTHENTICATION BY USER NUMBER
The following procedure is used to log in using a user number received from the administrator of the machine.

Clear activates, logout takes place automatically. However, when PC Scan mode is used, logout does not take
place when the [LOGOUT] key () is pressed and Auto Clear does not operate. Change to a different mode on
the machine and then log out.
If an incorrect user number is entered 3 times in a row...
If "A Warning when Login Fails" is enabled in the system settings (administrator), the machine will lock for 5 minutes if
an incorrect user number is entered 3 times in a row.
Verify the user number that you should use with the administrator of the machine.
The administrator can clear the locked state.
This is done from [User Control] and then [Default Settings] in the Web page menu.

IMPORTANT POINTS ABOUT PAPER
This section provides information that you should know before loading paper in the paper trays.
Be sure to read this section before loading paper.
NAMES AND LOCATIONS OF TRAYS
The names of the trays are as follows.
THE MEANING OF "R" IN PAPER SIZES
Some original and paper sizes can be placed in either the vertical or the horizontal orientation. To differentiate between
vertical and horizontal orientations, paper sizes in the horizontal orientation will be followed by an "R" (for example,
8-1/2" x 11"R, A4R).
Sizes that can be placed only in the horizontal orientation (12" x 18", 11" x 17", 8-1/2" x 14", 8-1/2" x 13", A3W, A3, B4)
do not include the "R" in their size indication.

IMPORTANT POINTS WHEN USING THE BYPASS TRAY
• When using plain paper other than SHARP standard paper or special media other than SHARP-recommended
transparency film, or when printing on the reverse side of previously used paper, the paper must be loaded one sheet
at a time. Loading more than one sheet at a time will cause misfeeds.
• Before loading paper, straighten any curling in the paper.
• When adding paper, remove any paper remaining in the bypass tray, combine it with the paper to be added, and
reload as a single stack. If paper is added without removing the remaining paper, a misfeed may result.
Inserting paper
Place paper that is 7-1/4" x 10-1/2" (A5) or smaller in the horizontal
orientation.
Inserting tab paper
To print on tab paper, load tab paper in the bypass tray with the print side face down.
• Use only tab paper that is made of paper. Tab paper made of a material other than paper (film, etc.) cannot be used.
• To print on the tabs of tab paper...
In copy mode, use "Tab Copy" in the special modes. In print mode, use the tab print function.
Inserting transparency film
• Use SHARP-recommended transparency film. When inserting
transparency film in the bypass tray, the rounded corner
should be at the front left when the film is oriented horizontally,
or at the far left when the film is oriented vertically.
• When loading multiple sheets of transparency film in the
bypass tray, be sure to fan the sheets several times before
loading.
• When printing on transparency film, be sure to remove each
sheet as it exits the machine. Allowing sheets to stack in the
output tray may result in curling.

Loading envelopes
When inserting envelopes in the bypass tray, place them aligned to the left side in the orientation shown below.
Only the front side of envelopes can be printed on. Be sure to place the front side face down.
Important points when using envelopes
• Do not print on both sides of an envelope. This may result in misfeeds or poor print quality.
• Restrictions apply to some types of envelopes. For more information, consult a qualified service technician.
• Some operating environments may cause creasing, smudging, misfeeds, poor toner fusing, or machine failure.
• Do not use the following envelopes:
Envelopes with metal clasps, plastic hooks, or ribbon hooks; envelopes closed with string, envelopes with windows or
backing, envelopes with an uneven front surface due to embossing, double-layer envelopes, envelopes with an
adhesive for sealing, hand-made envelopes, envelopes with air inside, envelopes with creases or fold marks, torn or
damaged envelopes
• Envelopes with an incorrectly aligned corner gluing position on the back cannot be used as creasing may result.
• Print quality is not guaranteed in the area 13/32" (10 mm) around the edges of
the envelope.
• Print quality is not guaranteed on parts of envelopes where there is a large
step-like change of thickness, such as on four-layer parts or parts less than
three layers.
• Print quality is not guaranteed on envelopes having peel off flaps for sealing the
envelopes.
