Document Control; Remote Operation - Sharp MX-M1204 Brochure & Specs

Multi-Layer Security
Data Encryption and Overwriting
MFPs can retain hundreds of pages of confidential information from
previous jobs on their hard disks or internal memory. To safeguard such
information from unauthorised access, the MX-M1204/M1054/M904
automatically encrypts document data stored on the hard disk,
including in the address book. Standard-equipped security features also
provide up to seven automatic overwrites of data generated for each
job, password protection of Document Filing data, and more.

Control Device Access over a Network
The MX-M1204/M1054/M904 offers IPsec, SMB, and extended support
for SSL Encryption (Secure Sockets Layer). For maximum security, users
can also take advantage of IP/MAC address filtering, protocol
enable/disable functionality, and port management.
Expandable Document Solutions
Simplified System Settings
MFP features and settings, including address book control and document
filing management, can be configured either through Web-based device
management or from the MX-M1204/M1054/M904's control panel.
Network Utility Software
Sharp Remote Device Manager* (SRDM) gives administrators
centralised control of their networked MFPs through a standard Web
browser, making device cloning and other operations easier and more
accessible.
*Contact a Sharp customer representative for details on using this function.

Remote Operation

The Remote Operation function lets you display the MFP's main
control panel on your PC screen, allowing you to operate every major
function directly from your desktop.* This function also enables the
administrator to remotely guide an MFP user through necessary
procedures.
* Requires VNC application.

Document Control*

The Document Control function prevents unauthorised copying, scanning,
faxing, and filing of confidential documents by embedding copy prevention
data onto a document. When that data is detected, any unauthorised
attempts to copy are cancelled or result in only blank-page output.
* Requires optional MX-FR38U. May not work on certain types of documents or paper.
Tracking and Auditing Information
Sharp offers both built-in and additional hardware/firmware systems that
allow users to control, access, and track usage of each device on the network.

Hidden Pattern Copy/Print
With this function, a watermark, such as "Confidential" or "Not for
Copy," can be embedded onto a document. If that document is copied,
the watermark will appear, alerting the user not to distribute it.
Data Initialisation
The MX-M1204/M1054/M904's initialisation function allows confidential
information to be erased. Initialising an MFP when it's time to replace it
prevents important resources, such as customer information and
intellectual property, from leaking out and provides considerable peace
of mind.
Sharp OSA* (Open System Architecture)
As an innovative development platform, Sharp OSA allows you to
interact with critical business and network applications right from the
touchscreen LCD control panel, bringing a whole new realm of control
and convenience. And since Sharp OSA utilises industry-standard
network protocols, the MX-M1204/M1054/M904 can easily integrate
with document management systems, software for enterprise resource
planning, workflow applications, and more. The latest version of Sharp
OSA can reach beyond the firewall, enabling extensive system
construction and services over the Internet. Other benefits of bringing
Sharp OSA on board include the reduction of costs associated with
system implementation and management and the ability to share data
across company branch offices or subsidiaries.
* Requires optional MX-AMX2 and/or MX-AMX3.
