A3 Colour Network Scanning

The MX-2310U works as a 

full-colour network scanner

. Converting 

any type of paper-based document, up to A3 in size, into an editable 
digital file is as easy as making a copy. The MX-2310U supports TIFF, 
PDF, encrypted PDF, XPS, and JPEG file formats. Enhanced scan 
performance improves the legibility of extremely fine text and allows 
vivid colour reproduction in scanned documents. Plus 

Auto Colour 

Selection

 chooses the right mode for scanning originals containing 

both colour and B/W pages (see page 4).

Quick Scanning

For both colour*

1

 and B/W documents, the MX-2310U carries out 

scanning at the impressive speed of 

50 opm

*

2

 (originals per minute) 

and can complete large scan jobs with ease and efficiency. 

*1: Faxing is available in B/W only.  *2: Single-side scanning

Multiple Distribution of Scanned Files

With the touch of a few buttons, you can choose different ways to 
distribute your scanned documents. 

Scan to E-mail

 sends 

documents as an e-mail attachment. 

Scan to FTP Server

 scans 

documents directly to an FTP server for storage. 

Scan to Desktop

 

sends scanned documents directly to your PC desktop. 

Scan to 

Network Folder (SMB)

 sends files to a shared folder on a 

networked Windows PC. 

Scan to USB Memory

 scans documents 

directly to USB memory devices. 

Scan to Fax

 enables conventional 

faxing or Internet faxing.

LDAP Support

Built-in LDAP (lightweight directory access protocol) support 
eliminates the need to enter or register full addresses. By entering 
the first few letters of the recipient’s 
name, the MX-2310U displays a list of 
possible matches from your company’s 
LDAP server. Selected addresses can be 
stored to the MX-2310U’s address book.

High-Speed Faxing

The optional MX-FX11 Fax Expansion Kit turns the MX-2310U into a 
33.6 Kbps 

Super G3 fax

. Using JBIG compression technology, the 

MX-2310U can send an A4 size page in under 3 seconds*. Use the 
100-sheet RSPF to further boost faxing efficiency. Additionally, 
because 

Quick On-Line Transmission

 can start dialling and 

transmitting as soon as the first page is scanned into memory, you 
can send documents in 

even less time

.

* Based on Sharp’s standard chart with approximately 700 characters (A4 
long-edge feeding) at standard resolution.

Automated Fax Finishing

The MX-2310U eliminates the need to copy and staple received 
faxes by hand. Simply use the Fax Output setting on the LCD 
control panel to designate the number of copies. With finishing 
options installed, the 
MX-2310U will even 
automatically staple these 
documents for you.

PC-Fax/PC-Internet Fax

Directly send a document created on your PC to a recipient’s fax 
machine via a phone line or the Internet without printing to paper. 
Save time and paper costs while retaining original document quality.

Note: PC-Internet Fax requires optional MX-FWX1; PC-Fax requires MX-FX11. 

Internet Fax

Economically send and receive faxes to and from other ITU-T 
T-37-compliant Internet fax machines via the Internet. The 
MX-2310U supports 

Direct SMTP

; outgoing Internet faxes do not 

go through your mail server, making transmission faster and 
cheaper. 

Note: Requires optional MX-FWX1.

Paperless Faxing with Inbound Routing

Paperless faxing with inbound routing lets you check incoming 
faxes via e-mail before printing. It can also forward incoming faxes 
to an FTP server, a network folder (SMB), or a PC desktop. Files can 
be saved in either PDF or TIFF (single/multi). 

Skip Blank Page Function

When scanning and sending a multi-page document, the 
MX-2310U automatically recognises and skips over any pages 
without content, reducing both data size and transmission time.

SECURITY

Powerful Multi-Layered Security

With multiple levels of network and data security to cover a wide range of security needs, Sharp’s security solutions 
protect your business assets and bring peace of mind. The MX-2310U safeguards sensitive data with powerful, enhanced 
security functions that eliminate the worry of unauthorised use and guarantee greater protection for your confidential 
information.

Data Security Kit

Digital copier/printers or MFDs can retain hundreds of pages of 
confidential information from previous jobs on their hard disks or 
internal memory. To safeguard this information from unauthorised 
access, the optional 

Data Security Kit

 

automatically 

encrypts and 
erases

 the data after 

each job is complete 
as well as data stored 
both on the hard 
disk and in the 
address book.

Encrypted PDF with Password Protection

To prevent unauthorised viewing of confidential image data, the 
MX-2310U enables users to password protect and encrypt PDF 
data. By setting a password when scanning, users can transmit a 
PDF over the network in encrypted format. Then, after 
transmission, viewers will only gain access to the encrypted PDF 
after successfully re-entering the chosen password.

Document Control Function

Document Control prevents unauthorised copying, scanning, 
faxing, and filing of confidential documents. This is how it works: 
the MX-2310U embeds copy prevention data onto a document 
when it is first copied or printed. It will then detect this data the 
next time someone tries to make a copy of the document. Any 
unauthorised attempts to copy a Document Controlled-document 
will simply be cancelled or result in the output of a blank page.

Note: Requires optional Data Security Kit. May not work for certain types of 
documents or paper. 

Data Initialisation

The MX-2310U’s initialisation function allows confidential 
information to be erased at the administrator’s discretion via the 
MFD’s system setting. Initialising an MFD when it is taken out of 
service prevents important resources, such as customer 
information and intellectual property, from leaking out and 
provides considerable peace of mind. 

Secure Network Access

The MX-2310U’s 

IP/MAC address filtering

 function provides 

highly secure operation by restricting access to the MX-2310U on 
your office network. Only PCs that have either their IP address or 

MAC (media access control) address 
registered are allowed to use the 
MX-2310U. Attempted access from 
an unknown IP or MAC address will 
be denied, preventing unauthorised 
use. The MX-2310U also supports 
the 

IEEE 802.1X

 standard for 

port-based network access control, 
which blocks all access from 
unauthorised devices.

Secure Sockets Layer

SSL (secure sockets layer) enables the encryption of data 
communications to prevent data leakage through the network 
when printing via IPP, browsing secure Web pages (HTTPS), or 
communicating via e-mail (SMTP and POP3) or FTP (FTPS). 

User Authentication

The MX-2310U prevents unauthorised use by requiring 

passwords

 for machine access. This safeguarded solution can 

register up to 1,000 users in 

three access levels

 as Administrator, 

User, or Guest and can designate to which function user 
authentication applies. The MX-2310U can, for example, be set to 
allow B/W copying by all users while restricting colour copying to 
designated users. The MX-2310U 
works with an 

external Active 

Directory server

 to extend user 

authentication to multiple MFDs and 
a greater number of users.  

IPv6 and IPsec Support

The MX-2310U supports the 

IPv6

 Internet protocol. An obligatory 

part of IPv6 is 

IPsec

 (IP Security), a set of protocols for securing 

Internet protocol (IP) communications. IPsec encrypts and 
authenticates traffic between specified parties, giving 
IPsec-compatible products an extremely high level of network 
security.

Scan to Me Function

Scan to Me lets a logged-in authorised user send scanned data to 
his/her own e-mail address simply by pressing the start button. This 
eliminates the need to manually enter or select the address, thereby 
preventing documents from being sent to the wrong address.
