Sharp AR-337 - Manual (Page 4)

INTRODUCTION
The AR-287, AR-337 and AR-407 copiers are digital image processing copiers
which provide high productivity and convenient features including intelligent
image-editing functions.
Amongst their many useful features and functions are the document feeder,
various special functions such as dual page copying, margin shift, erase, XY
zoom, and black and white reverse functions, photo copying, and an internal
auditor. If this copier is connected with another copier of the same model
equipped with the same options through the tandem-connection cable (AR-
CA1), copying can be performed using the two copiers allowing copying to be
twice as fast as copying on one copier when makig multiple copies (tandem
copying). Also, the JOB BUILD mode allows copies to be made of multipage
documents of up to 120 pages (the limit, however, might be up to 60 pages of 8-1/2"
x 14" or 11" x 17" paper size when the copier is equipped with some option) by
dividing the document into sections small enough (50 pages or less) and
sequentially feeding through the document feeder. The digital processing
system of the copiers allows multiple sets of copies to be sorted without the aid
of a sorter. These copiers can be equipped with an optional large capacity tray
which holds 3,000 sheets of copy paper. The machine can also be equipped with
an optional finisher to provide finished copy sets ready for distribution.
These copiers were also designed with ease of use in mind. The easy-to-
understand operation panel with touch panel system and INFORMATION
function will guide the user through most operations. In order to gain the
maximum benefit of all the features of the copiers, it is recommended that users
first read this manual to become familiar with all the features of the copiers.
