Introduction
The data security kit adds a security function to the SHARP Digital Full Color Multifunctional
System/SHARP Digital Multifunctional System.
When the copy function, printer function, network scanner function, or fax function of a
SHARP Digital Full Color Multifunctional System/SHARP Digital Multifunctional System with
the security function is used, the image data that is generated for the job is encrypted, and
when the job is finished, the encrypted data is immediately erased from memory and the
hard disk.
■ Note:
To ensure that the data security function of the machine provides maximum security,
observe the following:
● The administrator plays an important role in maintaining security. Exercise appropriate
care in selecting the person that will assume the job of administrator.
● Be sure to change the administrator password immediately each time a new person
takes over as administrator.
● Change the administrator password on a regular basis (at least once every 60 days).
● Do not select a password that can be easily guessed for the administrator password
● The system settings (administrator) are very important for security management. If
you leave the machine when using the system settings (administrator), be sure to
.
touch the [Logout] key to quit the system settings (administrator). The administrator of
the machine should inform users that they are not to access the system settings
(administrator) without permission.
● The customer bears responsibility for control of copies of documents made on the
machine and faxes received on the machine.
● Even when the data security kit is installed, note that fax data in the polling memory
box used by the fax function can be read.
■ Backing up and clearing data stored with the document filing
function
When the data security kit is installed, data previously stored in the machine with the
document filing function is cleared. For this reason, any data that you need to keep is
copied to a computer before the data security kit is installed, and then returned to the
machine after installation and clearing of the previous data. (This work is normally
performed at the time of installation of the data security kit.)
Only confidential folders can be used to return data from a computer to the machine
after installation of the data security kit. Before returning data from a computer to the
machine, create confidential folders if needed. For the procedure for storing data on a
computer and returning data from a computer to the machine, see document filing help
in the Web pages of the machine.

■ About passwords for the Web page
If an incorrect "users" or "admin" password is entered 3 times in a row when attempting
to access the Web pages of a machine that has the data security kit installed, access to
pages that require entry of the "users" or "admin" password will be prohibited for 5
minutes.
Some of the procedures for operating the machine change when the data
security kit is installed. The manuals for the machine explain the procedures for
operating the machine when data security kit is not installed. This manual
explains the changes to those procedures when the data security kit is installed.
■ Export restrictions
The USB memory contains software to which export restrictions apply.
The license for the software is stated below. By using this software, you agree to
comply with the contents of this license.
● This software (and associated technical data) is subject to regulations based on
U.S. and Japanese laws related to export control, including the Foreign Exchange
and Foreign Trade Control Law and U.S. Export Administration Regulations. The
software and technical data may also be subject to export and import regulations of

Files that have a password different from the password that was entered at the
time of the search will be treated as files for which an incorrect password was
entered. For this reason, it is recommended that you avoid executing searches
using [All Users] and [User Unknown] as much as possible.
● When the use of a file is prohibited, the following will apply when the document
filing function is used:
● When batch print is performed, a prohibited file will not be printed even if it

■ FTP Pull Print
When the FTP Pull Print function (when the printer expansion kit is installed) is used to
directly print a file on an FTP server, a "User Name" and "Password" must be entered
when the FTP server is selected. When the data security kit is installed, entry will be
locked for 5 minutes if an incorrect "User Name" or "Password" is entered 3 times in a
row.
■ Login when user authentication is enabled
When "User Authentication Settings" in the system settings (administrator) (

AUTHENTICATION" in the Quick Start Guide) is enabled, login is required in the login
screen before the machine can be used. When "A Warning when Login Fails" is enabled
in the system settings (administrator), the machine will lock for 5 minutes if login fails 3
times in a row.
The "A Warning when Login Fails" setting is always enabled when the data security kit
installed.
Security Settings in the Web pages
When the machine is used as a network printer and the FTP Pull Print function is used, the
data security kit enables authentication of the user by means of a "User Name" and
"Password" for the FTP server. (The Pull Print function allows a file on a previously stored
FTP server to be printed directly from the operation panel of the machine without using the
printer driver; see Operation Guide "DIRECTLY PRINTING A FILE ON AN FTP SERVER" in
"3. PRINTER".)
User authentication is enabled by selecting the [Enable User Authentication] checkbox on
the machine's Web page for configuring FTP Pull Print settings. This checkbox appears
when the data security kit is installed, and is initially selected (a checkmark appears).

the document filing function to a computer, the copied data can only be transferred back to
the original machine from which it was copied.
The data cannot be transferred to another machine even if the machine conditions are the
same.
The [Restore from PC] key will only appear on the Web page and transfer of data back to
the machine will only be possible when a confidential folder is selected.

"Number of Times Auto Clear at Job End Program is Repeated" that are suitable for
your security needs and conditions of use.

Document control
The document control function is used to embed a document control pattern on the paper
when a copy, print job, received fax, or list print is printed.
If a person attempts to scan a document with an embedded document control pattern on a SHARP
machine that has the document control function enabled, the message "Document control pattern
is detected. This job is canceled." will appear and an e-mail will be sent to the administrator.
This prevents secondary copying and faxing of sensitive documents.
Document control may not be effective when certain original sizes or types,
certain paper sizes or types, or certain settings are used.
To enable effective operation of the document control function, observe the
following points.
● Original
● The function may not operate correctly if the original consists of large
proportion of photographs.
● The document control function is intended to protect text data, and thus it
may not operate correctly if used to protect graphic data.
● Color of document control pattern (MX-FR28U only)
● Select a color in a color family that is different from the paper color.
● Paper on which the document control pattern is printed
● To allow selection of the colors black, cyan, and yellow, use Sharp
