AR-208S
AR-208D
The new Sharp AR-208S and AR-208D Multifunction Document Systems are big on
performance, but compact in size. Designed for small offices and workgroups, the AR-208S
and AR-208D deliver all the required features for fast-paced, small office environments.
With 20 page-per-minute copying/printing and integrated color PC scanning, your office
workflow won’t miss a beat. A 50-sheet document feeder provides standard 2-sided
scanning for extra efficiency, as well as duplex printing and copying (AR-208D models).
The cost-effective, consumable system utilizes a three-component system that’s easy to
replace and easy on your wallet. And since business never stands still, the AR-208S and
AR-208D offer flexible options to add Super G3 faxing, networking and web-based
management...so you’ll be ready for anything.
Built-in color scanning
with Sharpdesk
®
and
ImageSEND
Streamline your workflow
and increase productivity by converting
both color and black and white documents
into digital files that can be printed, stored
or e-mailed. Scanning is quick and easy with
Button Manager, a built-in utility that

E-mail, Fax, OCR, Microsoft Word® or other
designated application. Easily edit, store
and share scanned files with Sharpdesk
Document Management software, now
with Vista® support. And for even more
functionality, simply add the optional
Network Expansion Kit to distribute files with
convenient Sharp ImageSEND technology.
Share documents with Send to FTP, Send to
E-mail, Send to Desktop and Send to Print.
High-quality printing
The Sharp AR-208S/208D offers impressive
600-dpi resolution for crisp, razor-sharp text.
Standard USB printing with JBIG compression
and a high-performance print controller
automatically compresses files so even large
jobs print quickly and efficiently. With built-in
electronic sorting, offset stacking and auto
duplexing (AR-208D only) it’s easy to produce
multiple-page documents in a snap. Robust
paper handling abilities include a 50-sheet
Reversing Single Pass Feeder, standard
250-sheet paper supply and an optional
250-sheet paper cassette.
Add even more versatility with the optional

with ease.
