AR-M236/AR-M276
Multifunctional Copier/Printer
DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT
Input, Throughput, Output
The AR-M236/AR-M276 can be used as an
input device to convert hard copy documents
into electronic format thanks to their 40opm
high speed scanning facility and 100 sheet
document feeder.
With the optional scanning kit, you
can send electronic data scanned via the
AR-M236/AR-M276 to pre-set e-mail
addresses, ad-hoc e-mail addresses, FTP sites
and/or to a desktop PC at the touch of a key.
Sharp’s own document software,
Sharpdesk™, comes bundled with the
optional scanner kit and enables electronic
documents to be sent directly to your desktop
PC. From here you are able to browse, sort,
search and file. It also allows you to easily
create and distribute complete reports,
proposals, and more utilising a simple drag
and drop operation.
The scanning option also supports LDAP
(Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
which means that if your e-mail server is SNMP
compliant, e-mail addresses will automatically
be updated on the LCD touch screen of the
AR-M236/AR-M276 as and when your central
e-mail server is updated. This feature saves a
substantial amount of time not having to
re-programme the machine and ensures the
e-mail address book on the AR-M236/
AR-M276 is always up to date.
Job Status and Monitoring
As such it is imperative that the workgroup
using the AR-M236/AR-M276 should be able
to assess the status of the device at any given
time. Sharp Printer Administration Utility
and Status Monitor software do just this.
Whether you are a network administrator or a
user, these software utilities enable you to
interrogate the device across the network and
assess the status of the device before you
send a print job. Status Monitor lets you know
whether the machine is on-line or off-line and
even how much paper is remaining in the
cassettes.
E-mail Status and Alert
Sharp’s unique e-mail alert utility further
improves the level of feedback you are
able to get from the AR-M236/AR-M276
and can actually pre-empt minor problems.
An e-mail will automatically be sent to a
key operator advising that the toner may
be low allowing them to replace this item
in advance, or that a service may be required
in the near future.
