INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

To ensure safety and proper machine performance, please note the following before initial installation and whenever the machine is to be relocated.

The copier should be installed near an accessible power outlet for easy connection.

Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that meets the specified voltage and current requirements.

Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded.

Do not install the machine where it is:

● damp or humid,

●

● exposed to direct sunlight, extremely dusty, poorly ventilated, subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes (e.g., near an air conditioner or heater).

Ensure that the area chosen for the machine location is level.

Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for servicing and proper ventilation.

A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier during operation.

The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.

NOTE:

The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm

(0.2 m g /m 3 ) calculated as an 8 hr. time-weighted average concentration.

However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the copier in a ventilated area.

CAUTIONS

Do not touch the photoconductive drum. Scratches or smudges on the drum will cause dirty copies.

The fusing unit is extremely hot. Exercise care in this area.

Fusing unit Photoconductive drum

Installation adjusters are provided on the optional stand/

500-sheet paper drawer or stand/1000-sheet paper drawer.

When moving the machine with the optional stand/500-sheet paper drawer or stand/1000-sheet paper drawer, be sure to raise the installation adjusters. After moving the machine, lower the installation adjusters until they reach the floor to lock the machine in place.

LOADING COPY PAPER

The paper required ( ) indicator will light up when there is no copy paper in a selected paper feed station or when a selected paper tray is not installed or is improperly installed.

For best results, use only Sharp recommended paper.

The copy paper size for the 500-sheet paper drawer and the optional stand/500-sheet paper drawer or optional stand/1000-sheet paper drawer will be set by

Sharp service personnel according to your request when you purchase the copier. If a different paper size setting is required, contact your authorized Sharp

Service Center.

The 500-sheet paper drawer can be adjusted for four different paper sizes: 8-1/2" x 11", 8-1/2" x 11"R,

8-1/2" x 14", and 11" x 17".

The 1000-sheet paper drawer can be adjusted for three different paper sizes: 8-1/2" x 11", 8-1/2" x 11"R, and 8-1/2" x 14".

6 Push the lower paper tray firmly back into the copier.

ADDING TONER

The toner required ( ) indicator will light up when toner concentration level in the developer unit is low. If copying is continued while the indicator is lit, copies will gradually become lighter until the copier stops and the indicator begins blinking.

The indicator may also begin blinking during long copy runs of multiple dark originals, even though toner is left. If the indicator begins to blink, the copier will stop making copies. Open and close the front cover. After a sufficient amount of toner has been fed, the indicator will go out and the START key indicator will light up.

Press the START key to resume copying.

For best copying results, be sure to use only Sharp Genuine Supplies which are designed, engineered, and tested to maximize the life and performance of Sharp copiers.

Look for the Genuine Supplies label on the toner package.

POWER SAVE MODES

The copier has two power save modes to reduce overall power consumption and thereby reduce the cost of operation. In addition, these modes conserve natural resources and help reduce environmental pollution. The two power save modes are preheat mode and auto power shut-off mode.

●

User programs

The preheat activation time and the auto power shut-off time have been preset at the factory to 15min. for preheat mode and 60 min. for auto power shut-off mode. These times can be changed using user programs. It is suggested that you set appropriate times according to the actual usage of the copier.

Both of the power save modes can be automatically controlled by the auto power save control function. When enabled, this function will automatically establish new set times for the preheat and auto power shut-off modes based upon copier usage patterns.

POWER SAVE

START

Preheat mode

When the copier enters the preheat mode, the POWER SAVE indicator will light up and other indicators will remain on or off as before. In this condition, the fuser in the copier is maintained at a lower heat level thereby saving power. The preheat level is, however, high enough to allow the copier to come to a ready condition or begin copying within 30 seconds after any key input is made.

Auto power shut-off mode

If the auto power shut-off mode is enabled, the copier will automatically turn off the power once a programmed length of time has elapsed without any copier operation after the last copy of a run is made or the power is first turned on. The power switch will automatically be turned to the “OFF” position.

To turn the power back on, simply turn the power switch to the “ON” position.

Auto power save control

The auto power save control function automatically controls the power save modes. If this function is enabled, the copier enters the preheat mode a certain length of time after any copier operation and then enters the auto power shut-off mode. The time that elapses before the copier enters the preheat mode or auto power shut-off mode is set automatically by the copier, which calculates the proper time depending on the user’s copying frequency and copy quantity.

If the POWER SAVE indicator is on and some other indicators are on, the copier is in the preheat mode.

As an E

NERGY

TAR

® Partner, SHARP has determined that this product meets the E

NERGY

TAR

® guidelines for energy efficiency.

NOTE:

The preheat mode and the auto power shut-off mode, which are controlled by the auto power save control function, will meet the

Energy Star guidelines.

POWER SAVE MODES

POWER SAVE

START

Setting the power save modes

The factory default settings for the power save modes are OFF for the auto power save control function and ON for the preheat and auto power shut-off modes.

The auto power save control function can be enabled or disabled as desired using user program No. 4. If this function is disabled, the time that elapses before the copier enters a power save mode after any operation is made can be set manually. This time is set with user program No. 2 for the preheat mode and user program No. 3 for the auto power shut-off mode. If the auto power save control function is enabled, the settings of user programs No. 2 and No. 3 will be ignored.

●

For these settings, see page 34.

The copier will enter first the preheat mode and then the auto power shut-off mode when no copier operation is made.

If the time set for the preheat mode is not shorter than that for the auto power shut-off mode, the copier will enter only the auto power shut-off mode when the time set for the auto power shut-off mode

● has elapsed after any copier operation.

If the auto power shut-off time is changed using user program

No. 3 when the auto power shut-off mode has been disabled

(program No.9 ), the auto power shut-off mode will be automatically enabled.

Copying from the preheat mode

Make desired copier selections and press the START key using the normal copying procedure.

● When any key input is made or any other copier operation is made, the POWER SAVE indicator will start to blink.

● When the START key is pressed, the START key indicator will go out and copying will start within 30 seconds. The POWER

SAVE indicator will go out when copying starts.

USER MAINTENANCE

The document glass and document cover must be kept clean to avoid dirty areas from being copied onto the copies.

Document glass and document cover

Wipe the document glass and document cover with a soft, clean cloth.

● If necessary, dampen the cloth with water. Do not use thinner, benzene, or similar volatile cleaning agents.

● If an optional document feeder (ADF or RADF) is installed, wipe the transport belt with a soft, clean cloth.

Genuine supplies statement

Standard SF-2530 supplies replaced by the user include copy paper, toner, toner collecting container, and staple cartridges for an optional staple sorter.

For best copying results, be sure to use only

Sharp products.

The package of Sharp toner has the Gunuine

Supplies label.

GENUINE SUPPLIES

Photoconductive drum

The SF-2530 Copier has advanced process control technology which improves copy quality uniformity. This feature stabilizes copy quality throughout the life of the photoconductive drum by automatically compensating for changes in drum characteristics due to wear, operator use patterns, and environmental conditions. The automatic adjustments are made in response to a sensor that detects the reflectance characteristics of the drum.

WARNING

This feature requires drums containing the special reflectance area (recommended SHARP genuine photoconductive drum), to prevent low image density copies from poor process control and possible damage to the machine. If you use other drums, the process control system cannot run properly.

Proper storage

1 Store the supplies in a location that is:

● clean and dry,

● at a stable temperature,

● not exposed to direct sunlight.

2 Store copy paper in the wrapper and lying flat.

● Paper stored in packages standing up or out of the wrapper may curl or become damp, resulting in paper misfeeds.

ADF (SF-A17)/RADF (SF-A56)

Using the ADF or RADF

●

Before loading originals into the document feeder tray, be sure to remove any staples or paper clips from them. The ADF or RADF can handle a maximum of 50 originals.

Damaged or crumpled originals may misfeed in the

ADF and RADF. It is recommended that these be copied from the document glass and the copies be used as original documents.

When feeding originals which have closely spaced binding holes punched along an edge, place the originals so that the punched edge is positioned to the right or along the side guides.

●

Special originals such as transparency film and tracing paper should not be fed from the ADF and

RADF, but should be placed on the document glass.

Duplex copying will not work when a non-standard sized paper is used. (Duplex copying can be performed only when an optional duplex module is installed.)

Different size originals with the same width can be placed in the document feeder tray and automatically copied onto copy paper of their respective sizes.

The automatic copy ratio selection will not function in this case.

Image loss (max. 5/32" (4 mm)) can occur at the leading and trailing edges of the copies.

Stream feeding mode

The stream feeding mode allows easy operation of continuous copying from the ADF or RADF. If the stream feeding mode has been enabled using user program No. 5, the original feed indicator will continue to blink for approximately 5 seconds after feeding of all originals is completed. While this indicator is blinking, any new originals placed in the document feeder tray will be fed and copied automatically. If the stream feeding mode has been disabled, the START key must be pressed each time the originals are set even immediately after completion of a copy run from the ADF or RADF. The default setting of the stream feeding mode is “OFF”. See page 34, USER

PROGRAMS.

1-sided copies of 1-sided originals

1 Adjust the original guides to the size of the originals and set the originals face up in the document feeder tray.

● The ORIGINAL SIZE indicator for the detected original size will light up, and the paper tray with the corresponding paper size will be automatically selected.

● The auto paper select function can be disabled using user program No. 8. If this function has been disabled, use the TRAY

SELECT key to select the desired paper tray. See page 34,

USER PROGRAMS.

● To copy onto a different size paper, use the TRAY SELECT key to make the selection.

● If an original is left on the document glass, the original reminder indicator will blink. Remove the original from the document glass in this case.

10-BIN SORTER (SF-S18)

20-BIN SORTER (SF-S15)

There are two sorter modes for different copying jobs: one sorts copies into sets matching the sequence of originals and the second groups copies from different originals into separate sort bins.

The maximum allowable number of copies varies with the selected mode.

The number of copies will be automatically reset to the maximum number allowable for the selected mode when copying begins if this maximum is exceeded.

NOTES:

● To install the 20-bin sorter (SF-S15), an optional stand/500-sheet paper drawer (SF-D20), stand/1000-sheet paper drawer (SF-D21) or an equivalent stand must be installed.

● The bin intervals of the 10-bin sorter (SF-S18) are narrow for space conservation. When copying from an optional document feeder

(ADF or RADF) is completed or the CLEAR ALL ( ) or the sorter bin access key is pressed in the document glass mode, the bins will move three at a time and the space between them will become larger so that copies can be easily taken out. This bin access mode can be disabled using user program No. 7. See page 34, USER

The SF-S54N 10-Bin Staple Sorter and the SF-S56 20-

Bin Staple Sorter have, in addition to the above two modes, a STAPLE SORT mode. Sorted copies can be automatically stapled together.

The maximum allowable number of copies varies with the selected mode.

The number of copies will be automatically reset to the maximum number allowable for the selected mode when copying begins if this maximum is exceeded.

NOTES:

● To install the 20-bin staple sorter (SF-S56), an optional stand/500-sheet paper drawer (SF-D20), stand/1000-sheet paper drawer (SF-D21) or an

● equivalent stand must be installed.

The bin intervals of staple sorter SF-S54N are narrow for space conservation. When copying from an

( optional ADF or RADF is completed or the clear all

) key or the sorter bin access key is pressed in the document glass mode, the bins will move three at a time and the space between them will become larger so that copies can be easily taken out. This sorter bin access mode can be disabled by user program No. 7. See page 34, USER PROGRAMS.

NOTES:

If the specified number of copies is more than the maximum number of copies that can be set, the copy quantity display will change to the corresponding number in the above table in the SORT, STAPLE SORT, or GROUP mode after copying starts.

When making single-sided copies from two-sided originals, the maximum number of originals that can be copied is half the number shown in the above table.

If the sorter bin capacity control is enabled, the copier will stop when the number of originals exceeds the maximum number in the SORT or STAPLE SORT mode. If the sorter bin capacity control is canceled using user program No. 6, the copier will continue copying even if the number of originals exceeds the maximum number in the SORT or STAPLE SORT mode, though copies will not be stapled.

Do not use special paper in the SORT, STAPLE SORT, or GROUP mode.
