Improper installation may damage the copier. Please note the following
during initial installation and whenever the copier is moved.
1. Be sure to use the rated power supply and to ground the copier.
●
For this copier’s power supply requirements, see the name plate
located on the right hand side of the copier, below the manual
bypass.
2. Do not install the copier in areas that are:
●
damp or humid,
●
exposed to direct sunlight,
●
extremely dusty,
●
poorly ventilated,
●
subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, e.g., near an
air conditioner or heater.
3. Place the copier on a firm, level surface.
4. Keep the copier at least 10 cm (4 inches) back from the wall for
proper ventilation and cooling.
CAUTIONS
1. Do not touch the photoconductive drum. Scratches or smudges
on the drum will cause dirty copies.
2. The fusing area is hot. Exercise care in this area.

LOADING COPY PAPER
To save space, this copier has been designed with an adjustable frontloading tray, which is easily opened for paper loading. For best results,
use only Sharp recommended paper. (See page 43.)
The paper required () indicator will light up when there is no copy
paper in the selected paper feed station, or when the selected paper
tray is not installed or is improperly installed.
When paper runs out while the optional multi bypass feeder is being
used, a blinking will appear in the copy quantity display. (See
page 64.)
For convenience of quickly changing paper sizes, additional trays
(SF-UB15) are also available. These are sold separately. (See page
65.)
Gently lift and pull out the paper tray.

POWER SAVE MODES

The copier has two POWER SAVE modes of operation — preheat
mode and auto power shut-off mode.
The copier will enter a power save mode once the set time has elapsed
without any copier operation after the last copy of a run is made or
power is turned on.
Both of the power save modes can be automatically controlled by the
auto power save control function. When enabled, this function will
automatically establish new set times for the preheat and auto power
shut-off modes based upon copier usage patterns.
ACC.#-C
ACC.#-C
Preheat mode
When the copier enters the preheat mode, the POWER SAVE ()
indicator will light up and other indicators will remain on or off as before.
In this condition, the fuser in the copier is maintained at a lower heat
level, thereby saving power. The preheat level is, however, high
enough to allow the copier to come to a ready condition or begin
copying within 10 seconds after any key input or copier operation such
as paper tray operation is performed.
Auto power shut-off mode
When the copier enters the auto power shut-off mode, the POWER
SAVE () indicator will light up and all other indicators will go out.
The auto power shut-off mode saves more power but requires a longer
time to warm up before copying can begin.
Auto power save control
The auto power save control function automatically controls the power
save modes. If this function is enabled, the copier will enter the preheat
mode a certain length of time after any copier operation and then will
enter the auto power shut-off mode. The time that elapses before the
copier enters the preheat mode or auto power shut-off mode is set
automatically by the copier, which calculates the proper time depending
on the user’s copying frequency and copy quantity.
If the POWER SAVE () indicator is on and some other indicators
are on, the copier is in the preheat mode.
If the POWER SAVE () indicator is on and all other indicators are
off, the copier is in the auto power shut-off mode.

Setting the power save modes
The auto power save control function can be enabled or disabled as
desired using user program No. 4. If this function is disabled, the time
that elapses before the copier enters a power save mode after any
operation is made can be set manually. This time is set with user
program No. 2 for the preheat mode and user program No. 3 for the
auto power shut-off mode. If the auto power save control function is
enabled, the settings of user programs No. 2 and No. 3 will be ignored.
For these settings, see page 31.
●
The copier will enter first the preheat mode and then the auto power
shut-off mode when no copier operation is made.
If the time set for the preheat mode is not shorter than that for the
auto power shut-off mode, the copier will enter only the auto power
shut-off mode when the time set for the auto power shut-off mode
has elapsed.
●
If the auto power shut-off timer is set using user program No. 3 when
the auto power shut-off mode has been disabled (program No. 20),
the auto power shut-off mode will be automatically enabled.
It is recommended that these power save modes be enabled for
energy saving.

Genuine supplies statement
Standard supplies for this copier that are to be replaced by the user
are copy paper, toner, and staple cartridges for an optional staple
sorter.
Photoconductive drum
The SF-1116 and SF-1118 Copiers have advanced process control
technology which improves copy quality uniformity. This feature stabilizes
copy quality throughout the life of the photoconductive drum by
automatically compensating for changes in drum characteristics due to
wear, operator use patterns, and environmental conditions. The automatic
adjustments are made in response to a sensor that detects the reflectance
characteristics of a special area of the drum.
For best copying results, be sure to use
only Sharp products.
The package of Sharp toner has the
Genuine Supplies label.
GENUINE SUPPLIES
GENERAL INFORMATION
Supplies
WARNING
This feature requires drums containing the special reflectance area
(recommended genuine SHARP photoconductive drum). If you use other
drums, the process control system cannot run properly. To prevent
improper control and possible damages to the copier, the copier will make
only low level density copies.
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 copy paper in the wrapper and lying flat.
●
Paper stored out of the wrapper or in packages standing on end
may curl or get damp, resulting in paper misfeeds.

●
Be sure to remove any staples or paper clips from the
originals.
●
Damaged or crumpled originals may misfeed in the
document feeder. It is recommended that these
originals be copied from the document glass.
●
For best feeding of originals which have binding
holes punched into them, insert them so that the
holes are positioned to the right or along the side
guides.
●
Special originals such as transparency film and tracing
paper should not be fed through the document feeder
but should be copied from the document glass.
●
Image loss (max. 4 mm (5/32")) can occur at the
leading and trailing edges of the copies.
Stream feeding mode
If the stream feeding mode has been enabled using user
program No. 5, the original feed indicator will continue to blink
for approximately 5 seconds after feeding of all originals is
completed. While this indicator is blinking, any new originals
placed in the document feeder will be fed and copied
automatically. See page 30, USER PROGRAMS.

10-BIN SORTER (SF-S17N
)
10-BIN STAPLE SORTER (SF-S54
The SF-S17N 10-Bin Sorter has two sorter modes for
different copying jobs: one sorts copies into sets
matching the sequence of the originals and the second
groups copies from different originals into separate sort
bins.
The SF-S54 10-Bin Staple Sorter has, in addition to the
above two modes, a STAPLE SORT mode. Sorted
copies can be automatically stapled together.
The maximum allowable number of copies varies with
the selected mode.
The number of copies will be automatically reset to the
maximum number allowable for the selected mode
when copying begins if this maximum is exceeded.

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:
As the colours of the wires in this mains lead may not correspond with coloured markings
