PRINTING ON DEMAND

Truly Multifunctional

The AR-M236/AR-M276’s standard printer capability enables you to use your device as a high speed, high quality laser printer from the start. Utilising the unique SPLC (Sharp Printer Language with Compression), fast and efficient printing is available “out of the box” for single user or peer to peer networks. This printing function utilises either the in-built USB 2.0 port or IEEE 1284 bi-directional interface.

Where LAN environments exist, an optional

PCL6 Printer Board (AR-P17) with integral

NIC (Network Interface Card) can be added to create a highly efficient network printer for multiple users.

The confidential print feature allows you to send and store a print job with an assigned PIN code. Only when you walk up to the machine and enter the corresponding PIN code will your job be printed.

The proof print function also allows you to send a multiple print job to the AR-M236/AR-M276 where only one set will be printed allowing you to check that the settings you selected via the print driver give the desired finished document before you print the remaining sets. This feature saves time and paper wastage.

The carbon copy feature allows you to create your own multi-part invoices and purchase orders, so there’s no need to outsource printing or to use devices like dot matrix printers. The AR-M236/AR-M276 will conveniently print in a collated order on selected colour paper.

The AR-M236/AR-M276 gives you powerful printing functions such as web and e-mail printing which allows you to select and send PDF/TIFF files directly to your printer without having to open the application and printer driver first.

It is even possible to integrate an optional Postscipt 3 driver should this be required, in Macintosh environments for example.
