SHARP OSA

Sharp OSA (Open Systems Architecture) is an architecture that enables external applications to be directly
connected to a digital multifunction machine over a network.
When a digital multifunction machine that supports Sharp OSA is used, the operation panel controls and functions
of the machine such as scan send can be linked to an external application.
There are two types of external applications: "standard application" and "external account application". An "external
account application" is used for centralized account management of a multifunction machine on a network. A
"standard application" refers to all other applications.
APPLICATION
MODULE (MX-AMX2)
The application communication module is required to use a "standard application" on the machine.
When a previously registered standard application is selected in the Web pages of the machine, the machine
retrieves the operation screen from the registered URL. Control of the operation screen is performed by the standard
application, and Scan to FTP can be executed.

To register a standard application in the machine's Web pages, click [External Applications] in the administrator menu
frame and then click [Standard Applications]. Configure settings for the standard application in the screen that
