SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
USER- & ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY
Environmentally Conscious and User-Friendly Design Simplifies Everyday Use
Customisable to Meet Various Office Needs
Universal Design
Based on the concept of universal design, the AR-M351U/N has
features that make it user-friendly for everyone, including absolute
beginners or the physically challenged.
• Easy-to-press and -feel indented keys
• Notification sounds for default levels in
manual settings (zoom, exposure, etc.)
• Delayed response setting gives enough
time to cancel operation
Easy Printer Control
The printer driver gives you clear and
easy control of print jobs thanks to a
simple, easy-to-understand GUI
(graphical user interface). Simply click
the appropriate icons or check boxes
and print your document just the way
you want it.
Feedback Process Control
This unique system periodically monitors actual toner density and
automatically makes adjustments to maintain image quality over a
long period of time. This ensures consistent quality and minimum
paper waste.
User-Friendly Touch-Screen LCD
The AR-M351U/N’s logically designed control panel features a
wide, clear touch-screen LCD panel with easy-to-follow guidance.
For example, when adjusting the edge/centre erase function or, in
the event of a paper jam, the LCD displays step-by-step animated
instructions to guide you through the necessary procedures.
Environmentally Conscious Design
• Conforming to the
Energy Star
programme, an international
system identifying energy-efficient products, the AR-M351U/N
has two levels of
energy-saving modes
to reduce or shut off
electricity after a period of inactivity. These modes not only save
running costs, but also help conserve natural resources and
reduce environmental pollution.
• The AR-M351U/N uses
chromium-free
surface-treated steel
sheet and
lead-free
wiring harnesses and AC power cords.

Network Utility Software
(Windows® only)
The
Printer Administration Utility
makes printer networks easier to
manage by allowing network
administrators to customise monitored
items and view settings such as the IP
address directly from their PC. The
Printer Status Monitor
conveniently
allows you to monitor important
printer information on your PC,
including on-line/off-line status, name
of the active print job, and machine
conditions such as the amount of
paper or toner.
