Quick First Copy Time
Highly Productive Output
The MX-M450/M350 series has a quick first copy time
of 4.4/4.9 seconds to save valuable time when
performing multiple short-run jobs.
The MX-M450/M350 series’ Scan Once/Print Many function
requires only a single scan of a multi-page original for copying,
while its RIP Once/Print Many function needs only a single
download of the print data from the PC for printing. The MX-
M450/M350 series then automatically outputs collated sets of
copies or printouts in the proper page order. Each set is stacked
offset for easier retrieval and up to 999 copies can be made
directly from memory. This highly productive process allows you to
easily handle high-volume jobs.

NETWORK SCANNING
Speedy A3 Network Scanning
Linearised PDF
The 50-sheet DSPF and optional MX-NSX1 Network Scanner
Expansion Kit turn the MX-M450/M350 series into an ultra-
efficient network scanner* that can be used with any Windows
PC on the network. Converting any type of paper-based
document, up to A3 (11" x 17") in size, into an editable digital file
is as easy as making a copy.
With the MX-M450/M350 series, you can create linearised PDF
files, which allow the first page of a PDF file to be displayed in a
user’s Web browser before the entire file is downloaded. This saves
users the time and frustration of having to wait for large PDF files
to be displayed in their Web browsers.
* U models require optional MX-NBX2 or MX-NBX3
LDAP Support
Built-in LDAP (lightweight directory access protocol) support
eliminates the need to enter or register full addresses. Simply enter
the first few letters of the recipient’s name and the MX-M450/
M350 series displays a list of possible matches on your company’s
LDAP server. This feature saves precious time and lets you avoid
errors when typing e-mail addresses. After searching, selected
addresses can be stored to the MX-M450/M350 series’ address
book. And the integrated User Authentication function (see
page 8) blocks unauthorised access by requiring the user to log in
before searching for an address.
Multiple Distribution of Scanned Files
With the touch of a few buttons, you can choose different ways
to distribute your scanned documents. Scan to E-mail allows you
to send documents as an attachment to any e-mail address over
the Internet. Scan to FTP Server lets you scan a document
directly to an FTP server for special applications such as company-
wide posting or archiving. Scan to Desktop enables you to send
scanned documents directly to your PC desktop. With Sharpdesk,
Sharp’s powerful but easy-to-use document management
software, editing and managing scanned documents is easier than
ever. Scan to HDD sends scanned images to the MX-M450/M350
series’ built-in hard disk to use in the Document Filing function.
Scan to Network Folder (SMB) sends files to a shared folder on
a networked Windows PC. And Scan to Fax enables conventional
faxing or Internet faxing.
Easy Text Entry

SECURITY
Industry-Leading Multi-Layered Security
With multiple levels of network and data security to cover a wide range of security needs, Sharp’s industry-leading
security solutions bring today’s businesses increased confidence and peace of mind. The MX-M450/M350 series safeguards
sensitive data with powerful, enhanced security functions that eliminate the worry of unauthorised use and guarantee
greater protection for your confidential information.
Data Security Kit
IP/MAC Address Filtering
Digital copier/printers or multifunction products can retain
hundreds of pages of confidential information from previous jobs
on their hard disks or internal memory. To safeguard this
information from unauthorised access, the optional Data Security
Kit automatically encrypts and erases the data after each job is
complete as well as data stored both on the hard disk and in the
address book.
The MX-M450/M350 series’ network interface card* provides
highly secure operation by restricting access to the MX-M450/
M350 series on your office network. Only PCs that have either
their IP address or MAC (media access control) address
registered are allowed to use the MX-M450/M350 series.
Attempted access from an unknown IP or MAC address will be
denied, preventing unauthorised use.

Print Hold and Confidential Print
Auditing modes can be set individually for each function (copy,

control the amount of use by employee or department. Limitations
can be set for each account and each function.
To keep others from seeing confidential documents as they are
being printed out, the MX-M450/M350 series’ Print Hold
function* stores print data on its hard disk and withholds output
until the user executes a print command from the control panel.
For added security, the Confidential Print function* requires the
user to enter in a PIN (personal identification number) at the
machine before printing can begin.
User Authentication for Network Scanning
To prevent unauthorised use of network scanning, the MX-M450/
M350 series supports user authentication, which requires users to

operations. Four types of user

Sharp OSA (Open Systems Architecture)
• Administrators can set up many features from either over the
network or from the control panel of the MX-M450/M350 series,
including address book control, document filing management
and user control (accounting).
The MX-M450/M350 series has an open system architecture that
allows third-party software developers to create custom
applications* that link the MFP to software programmes on a
server or PC. The LCD control panel can thus be used to access
and operate these software programmes.
• Printer Administration Utility makes printer networks easier
to manage by allowing network administrators to customise
monitored items and view settings such as the IP address directly
from their PC through a standard Web browser.
* Requires optional MX-AMX2 and/or MX-AMX3; U models also require
MX-NBX3
Environmentally Conscious Design
• Conforming to the Energy Star programme, an international
system identifying energy-efficient products, the MX-M450/
M350 series has two levels of energy-saving modes to reduce
or shut off electricity after a period of inactivity.
• In support of the RoHS directive, which restricts the use of
hazardous substances, Sharp has fully eliminated harmful lead
and chromium in all MX-M450/M350 series parts and materials.
Web-based PAU 4.0
• If the MX-M450/M350 series is low
on paper or toner, the Printer
Status Monitor will alert you in the
form of easy-to-understand
graphics, allowing you to avoid
problems before they arise.
