POWER SAVE MODES
The machine has two power save modes to reduce overall power consumption thereby reducing 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 duration of time set in the
system settings elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. In preheat mode the display turns
off. Normal operation automatically resumes when a key on the operation panel is pressed or 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
duration of time set in the system settings elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. During
auto power shut-off, only the [ENERGY SAVE] indicator ( ) blinks. To restore the machine to normal operation,
press the [ENERGY SAVE] key ( ). Normal operation also resumes automatically when a print job is received.
While auto power shut-off is in effect, pressing a key other than the [ENERGY SAVE] key ( ) will have no effect.
The preheat activation time and the "Auto power shut-off timer" can be changed using system settings.

• Japanese paper
• Perforated paper
• Various types of plain paper and special media are sold. Some types cannot be used with the machine. Contact
your dealer or nearest authorised service representative for advice on using these types of paper.
• The image quality and toner fusibility of paper may change due to ambient conditions, operating conditions, and
paper characteristics, resulting in image quality inferior to that of SHARP standard paper. Contact your dealer or
nearest authorised service representative for advice on using these types of paper.
Note
• The use of non-recommended or prohibited paper may result in skewed feeding, misfeeds, poor toner fusing
(the toner does not adhere to the paper well and can be rubbed off), or machine failure.
• The use of non-recommended paper may result in misfeeds or poor image quality. Before using
non-recommended paper, check if printing can be performed properly.
Paper that can be used for automatic 2-sided printing
Paper used for automatic duplex printing must meet the following conditions.
Paper type:
Paper size:
Plain paper (special paper cannot be used.)

Paper weight: 60 g/m to 105 g/m (16 lbs. to 28 lbs.)
Special papers
Follow these guidelines when using special papers.
• Use SHARP recommended transparency film and label sheets. Using other than SHARP recommended paper
may result in misfeeds or smudges on the output. If other than SHARP recommended media must be used, feed
each sheet one at a time using the bypass tray (do not attempt continuous printing).
• There are many varieties of special paper available on the market, and some cannot be used with this machine.
Before using special paper, contact your authorised service representative.
• Before using other than SHARP recommended paper, make a test print to see if the paper is suitable.

BEFORE USING THE MACHINE
Important points when inserting paper in the bypass tray
• Up to 50 sheets of standard paper can be set in the bypass tray.
• Be sure to place A6, B6 or 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" size paper or envelopes horizontally as shown in the following diagram.
Not
available
Available
• To feed an envelope, first press down the fusing unit release levers (2 places) to release the pressure. (p.17)
• 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.
• Use SHARP-recommended transparency film.
• 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.
Important points when using envelopes
Envelopes that cannot be used
Do not use the following envelopes. Envelopes misfeed, and smudges may result.
• Envelopes with metal clasps, plastic hooks, or ribbon
hooks
• Envelopes closed with string
• Envelopes with windows or backing
• Envelopes with an uneven front surface due to
embossing
• Envelopes with an incorrectly aligned corner gluing
position on the back cannot be used as creasing
may result.
• Double-layer envelopes
• Envelopes with an adhesive for sealing
• Hand-made envelopes
Can be used
• Envelopes with air inside
• Envelopes with creases, fold marks, torn or
damaged envelopes
Cannot be
used
Print quality on envelopes
• Print quality is not guaranteed in the area 10 mm (13/32") around the edges of the envelope.
• Print quality is not guaranteed on parts of envelopes where there is a large step-like change of thickness, such as
on four-layer parts or parts less than three layers.
• Print quality is not guaranteed on envelopes with adhesive for sealing.

BEFORE USING THE MACHINE
Inserting transparency film
• Use SHARP-recommended transparency film.
• Do not touch the print side of transparency film.
• When loading multiple sheets of transparency film in the bypass tray, be sure to fan the sheets several times before
loading.
• When printing on transparency film, be sure to remove each sheet as it exits the machine. Allowing sheets to stack
in the output tray may result in curling.

FREQUENTLY USED FUNCTION
This section explains frequently used functions.
The explanations assume that the paper size and other basic settings have already been selected. For the basic
procedure for printing and the steps for opening the printer driver properties window, see the following section:
In Windows, view printer driver Help for details on printer driver settings for each printing function.
SELECTING THE COLOUR MODE
This section explains how to select the colour mode in the printer driver properties window. The following three
selections are available for the colour mode:
Automatic:
The machine automatically determines whether each page is colour or black and white and prints
the page accordingly. Pages with colours other than black and white are printed using
Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), C (Cyan) and Bk (Black) toner. Pages that are only black and white are
printed using Bk (Black) toner only. This is convenient when printing a document that has both
colour and black and white pages, however, the printing speed is slower.
Color:
All pages are printed in colour. Both colour data and black and white data are printed using
Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), C (Cyan) and Bk (Black) toner.
Black and White: All pages are printed in black and white. Colour data such as images or materials for a
presentation are printed using black toner only. This mode helps conserve colour toner when you
do not need to print in colour, such as when proofreading or checking the layout of a document.
When "Color Mode" is set to [Automatic]
Even if the print result is black and white, the following types of print jobs will be counted as 4-colour (Y (Yellow),
M (Magenta), C (Cyan), and Bk (Black)) print jobs. To be always counted as a black and white job, select [Black and
White].
• When the data is created as colour data.
• When the application treats the data as colour data even though the data is black and white.
• When an image is hidden under a black and white image.
