Warranty
While every effort has been made to make this document as accurate and helpful as possible, SHARP Corporation makes no
warranty of any kind with regard to its content. All information included herein is subject to change without notice. SHARP is not
responsible for any loss or damages, direct or indirect, arising from or related to the use of this operation manual.
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. Do not use an
extension cord or adapter to connect other
devices to the power outlet used by the machine.
Using an improper power supply may cause fire
or electrical shock.
*For the power supply requirements, see the name
plate in the lower left corner of the left side of the
machine.
Do not damage or modify the power cord.
Placing heavy objects on the
power cord, pulling it, or forcibly
bending it will damage the cord,
resulting in fire or electrical
shock.
Do not insert or remove the power plug with wet
hands.
This may cause electrical shock.
CAUTION
When removing the power plug from the outlet,
do not pull on the cord.
Pulling on the cord may cause damage such as wire
exposure and breakage, and may result in fire or
electrical shock.
When moving the machine, switch off the main
power and remove the power plug from the
outlet before moving.
The cord may be damaged, creating a risk of fire or
electrical shock.
If you will not use the machine for a long time,
be sure to remove the power plug from the
outlet for safety.

Installation notes
CAUTIONS
CAUTION
Do not install the machine on an unstable or
slanted surface. Install the machine on a surface
that can withstand the weight of the machine.
Risk of injury due to the machine falling or toppling.
If peripheral devices are to be installed, do not
install on an uneven floor, slanted surface, or
otherwise unstable surface. Danger of slippage,
falling, and toppling. Install the product on a flat,
stable surface that can withstand the weight of the
product. (Weight when various peripheral devices
are installed: approx. 718 lbs. (326 kg))
Do not install in a location with moisture or
dust.
Risk of fire and electrical shock.
If dust enters the machine, dirty
output and machine failure may
result.
Locations that are excessively hot, cold, humid,
or dry (near heaters, humidifiers, air
conditioners, etc.)
When the machine is installed, the adjusters (4)
must be lowered to the floor to secure the
machine (prevent it from moving).
Rotate the adjusters in the locking direction until
they are in firm contact with the floor.
If you find it necessary to reposition the
machine due to rearrangement of your office
layout or other reason, retract the adjusters
from the floor, turn off
the power, and then
move the machine.

(After moving the
machine, lower the
adjusters again to secure

Installing the machine next to a
diazo copy machine may cause
dirty output.
The paper will become damp and condensation
may form inside the machine, causing misfeeds and
dirty output.
Ambient environment (page 45)
☞
If the location has an ultrasonic humidifier, use pure
water for humidifiers in the humidifier. If tap water is
used, minerals and other impurities will be emitted,
causing impurities to collect on the inside of the
machine and create dirty output.

CAUTION
Be sure to allow the required space around the
machine for servicing and proper ventilation. (The
machine should be no closer than the distances
indicated below from walls. The indicated distances
are for the case when a saddle finisher and large
capacity paper tray are not installed.)
Near a wall
Vibration may cause failure.
Locations subject to vibration.
A small amount of ozone is produced within the
printer during operation. The emission level is
insufficient to cause any health hazard.
The present recommended long term exposure limit
for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m
3
) calculated as an 8
hr. time-weighted average concentration.
However, since the small amount that is emitted
may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to
place the copier in a ventilated area.
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.
Do not install the machine in a location with
poor ventilation. Install so that exhaust from the
machine does not directly contact people.
CAUTION
Store a toner cartridge out of the reach of
children.
Do not throw a toner cartridge into a fire.
Toner may fly and cause burns.
Installation notes (continued)
The machine includes a built-in hard drive. Do not subject the machine to shock or vibration. In particular, never
move the machine while the power is on.
• The machine should be installed near an accessible power outlet for easy connection.
• 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.

Handling precautions
WARNING
Do not place a container of water or other liquid,
or a metal object that might fall inside, on the
machine.
If the liquid spills or the object
falls into the machine, fire or
electrical shock may result.
If you notice smoke, a strange odor, or other
abnormality, do not use the machine.
If used in this condition, fire or
electrical shock may result.
Immediately switch off the main
power and remove the power
plug from the power outlet.
Contact your dealer or nearest
SHARP Service Department.
Do not use a flammable spray to clean the
machine.
If gas from the spray comes in contact with hot
electrical components or the fusing unit inside the
machine, fire or electrical shock may result.
Do not remove the machine casing.
High-voltage parts inside the machine may cause
electrical shock.
Do not make any modifications to this machine.
Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to
the machine.
If a thunder storm begins, switch off the main
power and remove the power plug from the
outlet to prevent electrical shock and fire due to
lightning.
If a piece of metal or water enters the machine,
switch off the main power and remove the
power plug from the power outlet.
Contact your dealer or nearest SHARP Service
Department. Using the machine in this condition
may result in electrical shock or fire.
CAUTIONS
CAUTION
Do not look directly at the light source.
Doing so may damage your
eyes.
The machine includes the document filing function, which stores document image data on the machine's hard drive. Stored
documents can be called up and printed or transmitted as needed. If a hard drive failure occurs, it will no longer be possible to call
up the stored document data. To prevent the loss of important documents in the unlikely event of a hard drive failure, keep the
originals of important documents or store the original data elsewhere.
With the exception of instances provided for by law, Sharp Corporation bears no responsibility for any damages or loss due to the
loss of stored document data.
Do not block the ventilation ports on the
machine. Do not install the machine in a
location that will block the ventilation ports.
Blocking the ventilation ports will cause heat to build
up in the machine, creating a risk of fire.
The fusing unit and paper
exit area are hot. When
removing a misfeed, do not
touch the fusing unit and
paper exit area. Take care
not to burn yourself.
When loading paper, removing a misfeed,
performing maintenance, closing the front and
side covers, and inserting and removing trays,
take care that your fingers are not pinched.
