PREPARATIONS  
About the scan head  
The scan head lamp remains on constantly when the machine is in the ready  
condition (when the ready indicator is illuminated).  
The machine adjusts the scan head lamp periodically to maintain copying quality. At  
this time, the scan head moves automatically. This is normal and does not indicate  
machine trouble.  
Power off  
1
Make sure that the machine is not in operation and then turn the power  
switch to the "OFF" position.  
If the power switch is turned off while the machine is  
in operation, a misfeed may occur and the job that  
was in progress will be canceled.  
In cases where the machine will not be used for a  
long time, turn off the power switch and remove the  
power cord from the outlet.  
Check the following to make sure the machine is not in operation:  
• The ready indicator is lit. (Initial state)  
• The power save indicator is lit. (preheat mode or auto shut-off mode)  
Power save modes  
The machine has two power save modes to reduce overall power  
consumption and thereby reduce the cost of operation. In addition,  
these modes conserve natural resources and help reduce  
environmental pollution. The two power save modes are preheat  
mode and auto power shut-off mode.  
Preheat mode  
This function automatically switches the machine to a low power consumption state if  
the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is  
on. The power save indicator lights up and the display shows a message indicating  
that the machine is in preheat mode, however, the keys on the operation panel can  
be used. Normal operation automatically resumes when a key on the operation  
panel is pressed, an original is placed, a print job is received.  
Auto power shut-off mode  
This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less  
power than preheat mode if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being  
used when the power is on. The power save indicator lights up, the display shows a  
message indicating that the machine is in auto power shut-off mode. To resume normal  
operation, press the [START] key (  
when a print job is received or scanning is begun from a computer. While in auto power  
shut-off mode, no keys (except the [START] key ( )) can be used.  
). Normal operation also resumes automatically  
The preheat activation time and the auto power shut-off time can be  
changed with "PREHEAT MODE" and "AUTO SHUT-OFF TIME" in the  
user programs. It is suggested that you set times that are appropriate  
for your usage of the machine. (p.64)

or curled edges.  
Note  
Raise the handle of the paper tray  
and pull the paper tray out until it  
stops.

Remove the pressure plate lock. Rotate the pressure plate lock  
in the direction of the arrow to remove it while pressing down  
on the pressure plate of the paper tray.

LOADING PAPER  
Fan the paper and insert it into the tray. Make sure that the  
edges go under the corner hooks.  
4
• Do not load paper above the maximum height line (  
Exceeding the line will cause a paper misfeed.  
).  
Note  
• If the paper is not fanned, double-feeds or misfeeds may occur.  
• Make sure the stack of paper is straight before loading it. When  
adding paper, take the remaining paper out and combine it into a  
single stack with the new paper.  
• Make sure that all the paper in the stack is the same size and type.  
• When loading paper, ensure that there is no space between the  
paper and the guide, and make sure that the guide is not set too  
narrow and causes the paper to bend. Incorrect loading will cause the  
paper to skew or misfeed.  
Gently push the paper tray back into the machine.  
5
• If you loaded a different size of paper than was loaded previously in  
the tray, go to "CHANGING A TRAY'S PAPER SIZE SETTING"  
(p.23)  
Note  
• When not using the machine for an extended period, remove all  
paper from the paper tray and store it in a dry place. If paper is left in  
the machine for an extended period, the paper will absorb moisture  
from the air, resulting in paper jams.

BYPASS FEED (including special paper)  
The bypass tray can be used to feed standard paper, transparency film, labels,  
envelopes, and other special purpose paper.  
Important points when inserting paper in the bypass tray  
Up to 50 sheets of standard copy paper can be inserted in the bypass tray. (Capacity  
will vary depending on the type of paper loaded.)  
Be sure to place envelopes horizontally as shown in the following diagram.  
Not  
Available  
Available  
3
• When loading envelopes, make sure that they are straight and flat and do not have  
loosely glued construction flaps (not the closure flap).  
• Special papers except SHARP recommended transparency film, labels, and  
envelopes must be fed one sheet at a time through the bypass tray.  
• When adding paper, first remove any paper remaining in the tray, combine it with  
the paper to be added and then reload as a single stack. The paper to be added  
must be the same size and type as the paper already in the tray.  
• Do not use paper that is smaller than the original. This may cause smudges or  
unclean images.  
• Do not use paper that has already been printed on by a laser printer or plain paper  
fax machine. This may cause smudges or unclean images.  
Envelopes  
Do not use the following envelopes, as misfeeds will occur.  
• Envelopes with metal tabs, clasps, strings, holes, or windows.  
• Envelopes with rough fibers, carbon paper, or glossy surfaces.  
• Envelopes with two or more flaps.  
• Envelopes with tape, film, or paper attached to the flap.  
• Envelopes with a fold in the flap.  
• Envelopes with glue on the flap to be moistened for sealing.  
• Envelopes with labels or stamps.  
• Envelopes that are slightly inflated with air.  
• Envelopes with glue protruding from the seal area.  
• Envelopes with part of the seal area peeled off.  
• Be sure to select com9, com10 or Monarch in the paper size setting of the printer  
driver. (For detailed information on the printer driver, refer to the online manual.)  
21  
LOADING PAPER  
Loading paper in the bypass tray  
• Paper must be fed narrow side first into the feed slot.  
Note  
• Special papers such as transparency film, labels, and envelopes  
must be fed one sheet at a time through the bypass tray.  
• When copying onto transparency film, remove each copy promptly.  
Do not let copies stack up.

The machine has the following features:  
• High-speed data transfer (when connected to a USB 2.0 port)  
• ROPM* function  
* ROPM is an acronym for "Rip Once Print Many" processing. The ROPM function stores  
multiple pages of print data in memory before printing. When printing multiple copies,  
this eliminates the need for the computer to repeatedly transmit the print data.  
To use the machine as a printer or scanner, the printer driver or scanner driver must  
first be installed as explained in the "Setting up the printer and scanner functions".  
• If a problem occurs in printer or scanner mode, see the Online

Also, for your convenience, you will find answers to frequently asked questions on our website at  
www.sharpusa.com. You can also e-mail your service question to  
[email protected]. Should you require further assistance, call Sharp at 1-630-

How Exchange is Obtained  
A replacement unit in exchange for your copier is provided directly by Sharp to any U.S. location. You  
will be required to provide consent for acceptance of an exchange unit and provide credit card  
authorization for the value of the exchange unit and the outbound shipping cost. At that time, Sharp will  
ship to you an exchange for your defective Product. The exchange unit we ship to you will be new or  
remanufactured. Upon your receipt of the exchange unit, packing and shipping instructions will be  
enclosed for you to return the defective unit. Upon Sharp's receipt of the defective unit, your credit card

packaging materials in order to facilitate shipment. The shipment of the defective unit will be at your

return it to you at any U.S. location.  
What You Must Do  
Your Product is designed to perform with a minimum amount of user maintenance. However, you are  
responsible for the required user maintenance described in the Operation Manual. This requires user  
maintenance including replacement of the TD cartridge and drum cartridge, cleaning of the unit and  
transfer charger, removal of dust and foreign matter, clearing of paper misfeeds, and proper routine and  
preventive maintenance.

END-USER LIMITED WARRANTY (Valid in U.S.A. only)  
SHARP ELECTRONICS CORPORATION warrants to the first end-user purchaser that this Sharp brand  
product (the "Product"), when shipped in its original container, will be free from defective workmanship  
and materials, and agrees that it will, at its option, either repair the defect or replace the defective Product  
or part thereof with a new or remanufactured equivalent at no charge to the purchaser for parts or labor for  
the period(s) set forth below.  
This warranty does not apply to any appearance items of the Product nor to the additional excluded item(s)  
set forth below nor to any Product the exterior of which has been damaged or defaced, which has been  
subjected to improper voltage or other misuse, abnormal service or handling, or which has been altered or  
modified in design or construction.  
In order to enforce the rights under this limited warranty, the purchaser should follow the steps set forth  
below and provide proof of purchase to the servicer.  
To the extent permitted by applicable state law, the warranties set forth herein are in lieu of, and exclusive  
of, all other warranties, express or implied. Specifically, ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OTHER THAN  
THOSE SET FORTH ABOVE ARE EXCLUDED. ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES  
INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR USE, AND FITNESS  
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED. If, under applicable state law,  
implied warranties may not validly be disclaimed or excluded, the duration of such implied warranties is  
limited to the period(s) from the date of purchase set forth below.  
Neither the sales personnel of the seller nor any other person is authorized to make any warranties other  
than those described herein, or to extend the duration of any warranties beyond the time period described  
herein on behalf of Sharp.  
The warranties described herein shall be the sole and exclusive warranties granted by Sharp and shall be  
the sole and exclusive remedy available to the purchaser. Correction of defects, in the manner and for the  
period of time described herein, shall constitute complete fulfillment of all liabilities and responsibilities of  
Sharp to the purchaser with respect to the Product, and shall constitute full satisfaction of all claims,  
whether based on contract, negligence, strict liability or otherwise. In no event shall Sharp be liable, or in  
any way responsible, for any damages or defects in the Product which were caused by repairs or attempted  
repairs performed by anyone other than an authorized servicer. Nor shall Sharp be liable or in any way  
responsible for any incidental or consequential economic or property damage. Some states do not allow  
limits on warranties or on remedies for breach in certain transactions; in such states, the limits herein may  
not apply.

Carcinogenicity :In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible  
human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is  
inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an  
opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of  
lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at  
levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal  
models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and  
lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner  
preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner  
exposure and tumor development in rats.

Data Revised: Jul. 31, 2002  
Data Issued: Jun. 1, 1998  
MSDS NO. F-00831  
Chronic Effect  
:In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to  
moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of the rats in the high  
concentration (16mg/m3) exposure group, and a minimal to mild degree of  
fibrosis was noted in 22% of the animals in the middle (4mg/m3) exposure  
group, but no pulmonary change was reported in the lowest (1mg/m3)  
exposure group, the most relevant level to potential human exposures.
