SUPPLIES
Standard supplies for this product that can replaced by the user
include paper and toner cartridges.
Be sure to use only SHARP-specified products for the toner
cartridges and transparency film.
GENUINE SUPPLIES
For best copying results, be sure to use only
Sharp Genuine Supplies which are designed,
engineered, and tested to maximize the life
and performance of Sharp products. Look
for the Genuine Supplies label on the toner
package.
Storage of supplies
Proper storage
1. Store the supplies in a location that is:
• clean and dry,
• at a stable temperature,
• not exposed to direct sunlight.
2. Store paper in the wrapper and lying flat.
3. Paper stored in packages standing up or out of the wrapper may
curl or become damp, resulting in paper misfeeds.
Storing toner cartridges
Store a new toner cartridge box horizontally with the top side up. Do
not store a toner cartridge standing on end. If stored standing on
end, the toner may not distribute well even after shaking the cartridge
vigorously, and will remain inside the cartridge without flowing out.
Supply of spare parts and consumables
The supply of spare parts for repair of the machine is guaranteed for
at least 7 years following the termination of production. Spare parts
are those parts of the machine which may break down within the
scope of the ordinary use of the product, whereas those parts which
normally exceed the life of the product are not to be considered as
spare parts. Consumables too, are available for 7 years following the
termination of production.

* Complies with the 33.6 kbps transmission method for Super G3 facsimiles
standardized by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T). This
is the speed for when sending an A4 (8-1/2" × 11") size piece of paper
of around 700 characters at standard image quality (8 × 3.85 line/mm)
in Hi-speed mode (33.6 kbps). This is the transmission speed for image
information only and does not include time for transmission control. The
actual time needed for a transmission depends on the content of the text,
type of receiving fax machine, and telephone line conditions.
