NETWORK SCAN OPTION

ENHANCE PRODUCTIVITY WITH POWERFUL SCANNING

With the optional Network Scanner Expansion Kit and Print Server Card installed, the AR-M300U/AR-M300N clears up excess paper copies and enhances workflow in the networked office. A speedy one-pass scanner converts your documents into digital files. Network users can then access those files using Sharpdesk™, a software package which smoothly handles all shared digital files. Streamline your business workflow and watch your document troubles evaporate.

Scan to Desktop/E-Mail/FTP

To Desktop

With the optional Sharpdesk™ software package, the AR-M300 sends scanned documents directly to your PC without routing through a server.

To E-Mail

Use the AR-M300 to send scanned documents as e-mail attachments. Unlike fax transmission, this time-saver lets you send a document directly to the intended recipient while maintaining the original image quality.

DATA SECURITY KIT

THE COMMON CRITERIA ACCREDITED SHARP DATA SECURITY KIT ENABLES SECURE COPYING, PRINTING AND SCANNING.

Digital copier/printers typically use computer style hard disks to capture the documents to be printed, scanned or reproduced. The disks can retain hundreds of pages of confidential information from previous copy, print and scan jobs. The Sharp Data Security Kit overwrites the document with random data rendering it unrecoverable by commercial means. This essential utility, recommended for all who handle sensitive information, is the World's first Common Criteria validated copier/printer solution. Highly sensitive information can now be securely printed, scanned or copied without the worry of residual data being left on the multifunctional device. The Common Criteria accredited Sharp Data Security Kit, will insure that no information remains on the destination device after use. Further security can be obtained by using the secure document release solution available from Sharp, which will only allow the print to be recovered when the user is present. Data protection is always important when dealing with customer or sensitive records. The Sharp Data Security Kit gives this protection by removing any data that may remain on the multifunctional device ensuring data security.
