Windmills of the Netherlands
For centuries, the Dutch used windmills
to mill corn into flour, drain water from
the land, cut timber into boards, and
carry out various other industrial tasks.
At one time, over 9,000 windmills
dotted the Dutch countryside. And,
although that number has dwindled
down to just over a thousand, many
people still associate the Netherlands
with its majestic windmills.
To harness the power of the wind, the
Dutch built a variety of windmills, with the name of each type determined by the
construction, appearance, or function of the mill. These mills sported a somewhat
primitive design that used canvas sails and that, unlike their more automated British
counterparts, had to be turned by hand to face the wind.

PRODUCTIVE
SUPERB PRINT QUALITY
VERSATILE
Super-Efficient Colour and B/W Output
The tandem printing engine with four in-line drums helps the
MX-2310U deliver a fast output of
23 cpm/ppm
* in full colour
and in B/W. The first copy comes out in just
10.0 seconds
in full
colour and
7.4 seconds
in B/W. What’s more, its short, straight
paper path minimises misfeeds to save you
paper and toner costs.
* A4, long-edge feeding
Productive Collated Output from Memory
The MX-2310U’s Scan Once/Print Many function only requires a
single scan of a multi-page original for copying, and the RIP
Once/Print Many function only needs to download print data once
from the PC for printing. The machine then automatically saves
the data into memory and outputs
collated
sets of copies or
printouts in the proper page order (electronic sorting), with each
set
offset stacked
for easier retrieval.
Built-In Stackless Duplex Module
The MX-2310U can make
two-sided copies and printouts
using
its built-in stackless duplex module, effectively reducing paper
costs as well as saving filing space. Duplex copying is even more
effective when the duplex module is used together with the
standard-equipped
100-sheet RSPF
(reversing single pass feeder),
which efficiently feeds in either one or two-sided originals.
Job Build for Large-Volume Scanning
The MX-2310U easily handles large-volume copy jobs exceeding
the RSPF’s 100-sheet*
1
capacity. For example, a 270-sheet original
can be scanned as batches of 100 + 100 + 70 sheets and
automatically stored on the MX-2310U’s hard disk*
2
. Users can
then print the entire document in a single run.
*1: A4, 80 g/m
2
*2: The number of pages that can be stored for the Job Build function
depends on the machine’s HDD capacity and other conditions.
Supports Most Office Environments
• The MX-2310U works as a network printer with the latest and most
commonly used operating systems and network protocols, including
IPv6
, and even in mixed OS environments. You get fast, powerful
network printing via the 1000Base-T
Gigabit Ethernet
standard.
• The MX-2310U supports the
PCL6
printer language.* For
compatibility with
PostScript 3
, the MX-PK11 PS3 Expansion Kit is
available.
* Requires optional MX-PB14.
Automated Finishing
The MX-2310U automates time-consuming finishing tasks and
makes it easy to create professional-looking booklets. For a
consistent, polished look, the
chapter divide
* function prints
documents so that all chapters begin on odd-numbered pages or
all begin on even-numbered pages. A space-efficient
Finisher
is
available for jobs that require sorting and stapling. Plus an optional
Punch Module
allows you to punch holes in documents for easy
filing.
* Requires optional MX-PB14.
Large Paper Capacity
For high-volume work, the MX-2310U can accommodate an
optional stand with 3 x 500-sheet paper drawers for a total
capacity of
2,100 sheets
. When a tray
runs out of paper, the
Auto Tray
Switching
function automatically
switches to another paper tray filled
with the same size paper, allowing
you to do extra-large volume jobs
without worry.
Network Tandem Function*
When two MX-2310Us are connected to the same office network,
you can use both simultaneously to double copying/printing
output to up to
46 cpm/ppm
. Large-volume jobs can be
completed with ease, enabling you to meet tight deadlines.
* Requires optional MX-PB14.
Convenient Copy Previews
To prevent errors in copying, the
MX-2310U shows previews of copy
jobs on its LCD before actually
executing them. With previews, it is
easy to confirm finishing options,
scan settings, and other such items.
NETWORK-READY
USB Memory Direct Print*
One of the two USB ports on the MX-2310U is located at the front
of the MFD beneath the control panel. It comes in handy when
printing data directly from USB memory
devices—an indispensable function for
users who are in a hurry or who want
quick machine access without a PC.
* Requires optional MX-PB14.
Versatile Paper Handling
The MX-2310U accommodates a wide range of paper sizes, from
A5R
to
A3 wide
. When using an optional finisher or exit tray, you
can do A3
full-bleed printing
onto
A3-wide
paper, without loss
of image area. The MX-2310U can handle heavy paper stock up to
256 g/m
2
, overhead transparencies, and other types of paper,
further expanding the range of printing applications.
Image Editing Functions
The MX-2310U includes colourful editing functions made possible
by digital technology.
•
Multi-Page Enlargement
divides an image onto separate
sheets for making posters up to A0 x 2 in size.
•
Photo Repeat
places multiple copies of an image onto a single
sheet.
•
Mirror Image
makes a reverse image of the original.
•
XY Zoom
adjusts the horizontal and vertical ratios independently.
•
B/W Reverse
reverses the black and white of an image.
Please see specifications for a list of available convenient functions.

Improved Imaging System
Sharp thoroughly revamped its imaging process for the
MX-2310U; now a high-performance processor, a new developer,
and the newly developed high-grade toners combine to provide
breathtaking image quality. The new toner expands the colour
reproducibility range for a more natural rendering of clear blue
skies, emerald green oceans, and other colour images. The smaller
particle size of the toner and the developer allows for reduced
graininess and clear reproduction of fine lines, fine text, and
halftone colours.
Crisp, Clear Text and Images
Employing digital smoothing technology enhances the print
resolution to the equivalent of
9,600 x 600 dpi
for incredibly
smooth reproduction of fine lines. Fine-grained photographs,
detailed illustrations and graphs, and small text come out crisp and
clear.
High-Quality Page Description Language
To ensure high-quality image processing, the MX-2310U uses Sharp’s
original
SAPL-c
(Sharp Advanced Printing Language-c), a new page
description language (PDL) that delivers superb performance and print
quality. The MX-2310U is also compatible with PCL6 and PS3 (option).
Easy, High-Quality Copying
Auto Colour Selection
automatically determines whether a page is
colour or B/W and selects the appropriate copy mode for that page.
Auto Colour Mode
analyses the contents of each page,
distinguishing between different components, such as photos and
text. These are what allow the MX-2310U to print out maps with
crisp, clear text and to automatically remove the background colour
on newspaper and magazine copies for clearer output.
