Sharp’s Powerful Administration Utility Suite

To help you manage all of the AR-M257/M317 Digital
IMAGER MFPs leading-edge features, Sharp developed the

Administration Utility Suite,

a suite of integrated, easy-to-use

tools that simplify everything from installation and monitoring to
operating and tracking your Digital IMAGER MFP.

The

IMAGER Home Page

provides centralized, web-based

management for administrators and users. Administrators can
control device configuration, network settings, IP filtering and
protocol control—without ever leaving
their desk. Users have the ability to
manage scan destinations and profiles, as
well as access custom web links such as

My Sharp™,

a dedicated customer-care

website that offers solutions, resources, and
information specific to your Digital IMAGER MFP.

Printer Administration Utility (PAU),

designed primarily for

IT Managers and administrators, simplifies printer installation
and configuration. This robust utility also allows administrators
to remotely monitor any SNMP-compliant printer on the
network—regardless of the manufacturer, enabling all printers
to be managed through one single interface.

For desktop users,

Printer Status Monitor’s

easy-to-use

interface allows you to view the print queue and printer
conditions—paper levels, toner and more—before you send
your job to print.

To enhance system reliability and maximize uptime,
Sharp’s

Remote E-mail Diagnostics (R.E.D.)

enables IT

Managers and Authorized Sharp Dealers to automatically
receive e-mails regarding operation and performance of
their Digital IMAGER MFP.
