Configuring Sharp
General Notes
Supposed you are configuring new MFD with default settings. If you are configuring older device with lot of customized settings, it may be useful to reset it to factory defaults first.
Most settings can be configured via internal web page of MFD with administration interface. Web interface of each device can be different, depending on device model. Language of the interface is mostly controlled by preferred language setting of the browser. Note that support of various browsers can differ between particular MFDs. To enter web interface, insert <MFD IP> to the browser address bar (you will be connected to http or https page based on MFD's current setting).
Limitations can be found on page Requirements and known limitations of YSoft SafeQ Embedded Terminal for Sharp.
General MFD Configuration
Sharp MFD requirements
The device must support OSA 3.5 and have MX-AMX2 and MX-AMX3 modules installed for full YSoft SafeQ Embedded Terminal functionality. It is customer's responsibility to have it installed. Available terminal functionality may differ in case only MX-AMX2 or MX-AMX3 module is installed.
How to check if MX-AMX modules are installed:
For Sharp model MX-2600N, check menu Status.
This method does not work for model MX-2610N since it shows only Options and not Software Options Installed.
For model MX-2610N go to menu System Setings > Product Key and check if both modules are marked with [Enable].
The MFD must be configured to communicate via the SSL protocol and the associated certificate must have been created.
How to create and enabled SSL certificate:
