DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT

Sharpdesk for Total Document Management

Document Management on the Hard Disk

You can save processed job data in designated folders on the 
MX-2310U’s built-in hard disk, making it easy to instantly recall 
saved documents or jobs for printing and sending at a later time. 
This contributes greatly to efficient sharing and distribution of 
information in your business operations. 

Up to 

10,000 pages

 or 3,000 

files*

1

 that have been copied, 

printed, scanned, or faxed*

2

 

can be stored by job on the 
hard disk in a Quick File Folder. 
You can easily reuse saved data 
without having to reload or 
rescan the original.

Quick Filing

Up to 

20,000 pages

 or 3,000 files*

1

 that have been copied, printed, scanned, or faxed*

2

 can be stored by job 

on the hard disk in up to 1,000 folders with customised names and locations. Enhanced security features require 
users to enter a 5- to 8-digit password to access secure folders, protecting your sensitive data. Storage options 
include:

• Main Folder – You can store processed files by 

user name in the main public folder and share 
them across the workgroup. Any file name and 
a PIN code can be assigned to each saved job. 

• Custom Folder - Up to 1,000 private folders (named as 

desired) can be created within the Custom Folder. When 
saving a file in a private folder, any file name can be 
assigned. A PIN code can be applied to both private folders 
and files. 

Advanced Filing Function

Sharpdesk is an original Sharp application that provides integrated desktop 
management of documents in over 

200 file formats

, including scanned 

paper-based documents and those created with popular applications such as 
Word. It allows you to organise, edit, search, and distribute your documents, 
all with simple drag-and-drop operation.

*1: Measured using Sharp’s standard chart (A4 with 6% coverage, B/W). The Quick File Folder shares the HDD with the Job Build function; up to 14GB of data storage is available 
when using both functions. The storage capacity will be less for colour pages. 
*2: For fax and Internet fax jobs, only transmitted data (not received faxes) can be saved in the Document Filing function.

Integrated Device Management

The MX-2310U allows for easy programming of complex settings and makes it possible for a system administrator to 
manage multiple devices from a single location. The result is minimum time and effort and maximum work efficiency.  

Web-Based System Settings

Administrators can configure 
system settings such as address 
book control, document filing 
management, and user control 
(accounting) from either over 
the network or from the control 
panel of the MX-2310U. 

User Control

The MX-2310U has capabilities to 

restrict machine access and 

usage

. Easily manage overall running costs by setting access rules 

through a Web browser to limit or restrict functions, such as the 
printing out or copying of large-volume colour documents.

• Authority Groups – Use of each function can be restricted 

individually.

• User control and account – Up to 1,000 password-protected user 

accounts can be created for customised access. Accounts can be 
set up for individuals, groups or departments, in conjunction 
with the authority group setting. Maximum limits for printing or 
copying pages can be set for each account.

Remote Diagnosis

The MX-2310U can be monitored remotely through a Web 
browser. In the event of a problem, such as a low amount of toner, 
an alert is displayed on the Web page. The E-Mail Status and Alert 
function generates e-mail messages to notify the administrator 
when action or maintenance is required.

Network Utility Software

• 

Sharp Remote Device Manager 

(SRDM) makes printer networks 
easier to manage by allowing 
administrators to customise 
monitored items and view settings 
such as the IP address directly from 
their PC through a standard Web 
browser.

• If the MX-2310U is low on paper or 

toner, the 

Printer Status Monitor

 

will alert you in the form of 
easy-to-understand graphics, 
allowing you to avoid problems 
before they arise.

Device Cloning

Machine settings can be copied conveniently to another 
MX-2310U via a Web browser in XML format, making it easy to 
clone machines in a networked environment. With Device Cloning, 
the administrator no longer needs to set up individual machines 
one by one, thereby making his/her job a lot easier. 

Remote Operation

With the MX-2310U’s Remote Operation function, the same 
control panel screen found on the MFD can be displayed on the 
screen of a remote, office-networked PC, allowing the MFD to be 
operated via that PC.* This function can, for example, enable the 
administrator to guide an MFD user in need of help through 
necessary procedures. It also allows users, regardless of experience 
to operate the MFD remotely, via the PC. 

* Requires VNC application.
