INFORMATION ON DISPOSAL

TO THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE MACHINE

Each instruction also covers the optional units used with these products.

Caution!

For complete electrical disconnection, pull out the main plug. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. To reduce the risk of fire, use only UL-Listed No.26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.

Shielded interface cables must be used with this equipment to maintain compliance with EMC regulations.

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 and of the same rating as the one removed from the plug must 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:

GREEN-AND-YELLOW: Earth BLUE: Neutral BROWN: Live

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 Å@, 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.

CAUTIONS

1. Do not touch the transfer belt. Scratches or smudges on the transfer belt will cause dirty prints.

2. The fusing unit is extremely hot. Exercise care in this area.

3. Do not look directly at the light source. Doing so may damage your eyes.

4. 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 the machine.)

5. Do not make any modifications to this machine. Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the machine.

6. The machine is heavy. To prevent injury when moving the machine, it is recommended that it be moved by four or more persons.

7. Do not make copies of anything which is prohibited from copying by law. The following items are normally prohibited from printing by national law. Other items may be prohibited by local law.

●

Money ● Stamps ● Bonds ● Stocks

●

Bank drafts ● Checks ● Passports ● Driver's licences

8. 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.

9. Do not throw toner, a toner container (toner cartridge), or a waste toner box into a fire. Toner may fly and cause burns.

10. Store toner, toner containers (toner cartridges), and waste toner boxes out of the reach of children.

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.

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 in the lower right corner of the back of the machine.

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.

3. Do not install the 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.

5. 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.

When installing the machine, make sure that the sides and back of the machine are at least 30 cm (11-13/16") away from any walls.

A small amount of ozone is produced within the printer during operation. The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.

NOTE:

The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m 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.

SUPPLIES

Standard supplies for this product that can replaced by the user include paper, toner cartridges, and staple cartridges for the finisher. Be sure to use only SHARP-specified products for the toner cartridges, finisher staple cartridge, saddle stitch finisher staple cartridge, and transparency film.

For best copying results, be sure to use only Sharp Genuine Supplies which are designed, engineered, and tested to maximize the life and performance of Sharp products. Look for the Genuine Supplies label on the toner package.

GENUINE SUPPLIES

Storage of supplies

Proper storage

1. Store the supplies in a location that is:

• clean and dry,

• at a stable temperature,

• not exposed to direct sunlight.

2. Store paper in the wrapper and lying flat.

3. Paper stored in packages standing up or out of the wrapper may curl or become damp, resulting in paper misfeeds.

Storing toner cartridges

Store a new toner cartridge box horizontally. Do not store it standing on end. If stored standing on end, the toner may not distribute well even after shaking the cartridge vigorously, and will remain inside the cartridge without flowing out.

Staple cartridge

The finisher and saddle stitch finisher require the following staple cartridge:

MX-SCX2 (for finisher) Approx. 5000 per cartridge x 3 cartridges

MX-SCX3 (for saddle unit and saddle stitch finisher) Approx. 2000 per cartridge x 4 cartridges

AR-SC2 (for finisher (for MX-M850) and saddle stitch finisher) Approx. 5000 per cartridge x 3 cartridges

Supply of spare parts and consumables

The supply of spare parts for repair of the machine is guaranteed for at least 7 years following the termination of production. Spare parts are those parts of the machine which may break down within the scope of the ordinary use of the product, whereas those parts which normally exceed the life of the product are not to be considered as spare parts. Consumables too, are available for 7 years following the termination of production.
