HEIGHTENED SECURITY  
PRIVACY  
Innovative document and device protection helps  
ensure confidentiality  
AUTHORIZATION  
CONFIDENTIALITY  
PROTECTION  
To help protect your data, the MX Monochrome Series offers several layers of security,  
making Sharp the optimum choice to protect employee privacy and intellectual property. As the  
leader in office equipment security, Sharp makes it easy for any business or government entity  
to safely deploy digital copying, printing, scanning and faxing.  
Authority Groups and Access Control  
Advanced account management enables administrators to set authority groups for access to  
features of the MX Monochrome Series. Administrators can control which department, for  
instance, has full access to copying, printing, scanning and/or fax. Walk up users enter a code,  
Local Name and Password, or LDAP User Authentication to access their features assigned to their  
group. Users can also login utilizing a human interface device (HID) such as a Smartcard or  
Common Access Card (CAC).*  
Data Erase and Encryption*  
To help protect your data, the MX Monochrome Series offers an optional data security kit that  
encrypts document data using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption. Additionally, the  
data security kit erases the temporary memory on the hard drive by overwriting the encrypted data  
up to seven times, offering an unprecedented level of assurance. Additionally, the data security kits  
for these models comply to the new IEEE-2600-2008 security standard for MFP devices. This new  
standard specifies security requirements and provides a new international reference to assess  
contemporary MFP security.  
Network Scanning Access  
To help protect your network from unauthorized e-mail communications, the MX Monochrome  
Series supports User Authentication, requiring users to login before performing any network  
scanning operations.  
Control Device Access Over the Network  
To help restrict access to the device over the network, the MX Monochrome Series offers IPsec,  
SMB and extended support for SSL Encryption (Secure Sockets Layer), IP/MAC address filtering,  
IEEE 802.1x authentication, protocol enable/disable and port management for maximum security.  
Documents Remain Confidential  
To help protect your printed documents from unauthorized viewing, the MX Monochrome Series  
offers encrypted PDF files for printing and scanning as well as Confidential Printing that requires  
users to enter a PIN code in order to print a queued document. Additionally, Secure Fax Release  
ensures received fax documents are held in memory until an authorized user enters a PIN code.  
So compliance with healthcare regulations such as HIPAA is easier.  
Tracking and Auditing Information  
Legislation and industry policies require companies to be more aware of information flow from  
their offices. Sharp offers both built-in and additional hardware/software which allows users to  
control, access and track usage of each device on the network.  
These scalable security offerings aim to protect your intellectual property, preserve confidential  
information and help your business to meet regulatory requirements, such as the Health Insurance  
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLB). For additional

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY  
Sharp’s ongoing commitment and dedication to  
developing eco-friendly document systems set a  
high standard for the industry  
Designed with a Strong Commitment to Protecting the Environment  
The MX Monochrome Series document systems utilize Sharp’s second generation micro-fine toner  
technology, which offers a lower consumption rate than conventional toners. This also results  
in less packaging material and longer replacement intervals. Additionally, all Sharp supplies are  
packaged using fully recyclable materials. Power consumption on the MX Monochrome Series  
is among the lowest in the industry and supports two different energy saving modes to reduce  
or shut off power after a set interval. All Sharp document systems belong to the ENERGY STAR®  
program, and RoHS program.  
An Economical, Low Maintenance Document System That Makes Sense  
The MX Monochrome Series is designed to accommodate both large and small office environments. With  
a compact wingless design, the footprint of each base model is less than 25" x 27". Our new long-  
life consumable parts and supplies minimize service intervals and down time, resulting in lower  
operating costs.  
Environmental Leadership  
As a testament to our commitment to the environment, Sharp is a three-time winner of the ENERGY  
STAR annual Excellence in Energy Proficiency Product Design. Sharp is also a four-time winner of  
the SmartWaysm Excellence Award, which recognizes companies for conserving energy and  
lowering greenhouse gas emissions in logistics and transportation. Sharp was also a previous  
recipient of the Excellence in Partnership Green Contractor Award and the Evergreen Award from the  
General Services Administration (GSA) and the Coalition for Government Procurement. These awards  
recognize environmentally responsible businesses and their efforts on recycling, waste reduction and  
affirmative procurement practices.  
Toner Recycling Program  
As part of our commitment to preserving the environment, Sharp offers customers a toner recycling  
program for all Sharp copiers and MFP products. Sharp encourages customers to recycle their used  
toner cartridges by providing a pre-paid shipping label for their return to our facility. Please visit  
www.sharpusa.com/recycle to learn more.
