What to do if Sharp Copier does not print after driver installation?
- B
  Brittany WangAug 23, 2025
  If your Sharp Copier isn't printing even after installing the driver, first ensure the driver is properly installed. Check this by going to 'Start' > 'Control Panel' > 'Printers and Other Hardware' > 'Printers and Faxes'. If the 'SHARP AR-XXXX' printer driver icon is present but printing still fails, the driver may not be installed correctly. Delete 'SHARP AR-M150/168 Series MFP Driver' and reinstall it. Also, if a copy job is in progress, wait until it is finished before attempting to print. Ensure that the size of the paper loaded in the tray matches the paper size setting in the machine. If the 'FORCED OUTPUT' setting is set to 'OFF', load paper in the bypass tray as instructed by the message in the display and press the [START] key to begin printing.

What to do if Sharp Copier is unable to scan?
- P
  Pamela FletcherAug 25, 2025
  If your Sharp Copier is unable to scan, try shutting down your computer, turning off the machine's power switch, and unplugging the machine's power cord. Then, restart your computer, restore power to the copier, and try scanning again. If your application is not TWAIN/WIA compliant, scanning will not be possible. Also, scanning a large area in full color at high resolution results in a large amount of data and extended scanning times.

What to do if error indicator is blinking on Sharp AR-M150 All in One Printer?
- P
  Paula WatsonAug 26, 2025
  If the error indicator on your Sharp All in One Printer is blinking, it could be due to several reasons. A paper misfeed might have occurred, so clear any paper jams. The cover or the SPF/RSPF cover might be open, so ensure they are closed. The toner cartridge could be empty, requiring a replacement. If [L1-00] appears, turn off the power, release the scan head locking switch, and turn the power back on. If none of these apply, try turning the power off, waiting 10 seconds, and turning it back on. If the error persists, contact an authorized service representative.

What to do if Sharp All in One Printer displays 'CHECK SPF/RSPF'?
- D
  David NewmanAug 27, 2025
  If the Sharp All in One Printer is displaying 'CHECK SPF/RSPF. START TO RESUME,' it may be because an original document remains on the document glass or the original is too thick to scan. Remove the original. If there is no original on the document glass, the underside of the SPF/RSPF may be dirty; clean it.

Why is my Sharp Copier not printing?
- D
  Dr. Karen Mosley PhDAug 28, 2025
  There are several reasons why your Sharp Copier might not be printing. It could be due to a loose or faulty USB or Parallel cable connection. Ensure both ends of the cable are securely connected, and try using a different cable. If you are using the copier as a shared printer, the computer name or share settings may have changed. Reconfigure the port settings for the shared printer. Also, verify that 'SHARP AR-XXXX' is selected as the printer in the 'Print' window after choosing 'Print' from the 'File' menu in your application.

Why is the printed image from my Sharp Copier dirty?
- D
  Dr. Sarah DixonAug 29, 2025
  A dirty printed image from your Sharp Copier can result from several factors. Ensure you are using paper within the specified size and weight range. Avoid using curled or damp paper; replace it with dry copy paper and store paper in a dark, dry place when not in use. Insufficient margins in your application's paper settings can also cause this issue. Set the margins within the specified print quality area in your software.

How to fix skewed or off-center prints from Sharp Copier?
- C
  Christian MooreAug 30, 2025
  Skewed or off-center prints from your Sharp Copier can be caused by a mismatch between the paper size loaded and the size specified in the printer driver. Check that the 'Paper Size' options match the loaded paper. If 'Fit To Page' is activated, ensure the selected paper size in the 'Fit To Paper Size' option matches the loaded paper. The document orientation setting could also be incorrect; verify the 'Image Orientation' in the printer driver's 'Paper' tab. Additionally, ensure the paper is loaded correctly and that the document margins are correctly specified in your application's layout and print settings.

Why is the print image light and uneven on my Sharp Copier?
- A
  anthonyfigueroaSep 3, 2025
  A light and uneven printed image on your Sharp Copier can be due to the paper being loaded incorrectly. Some paper types have a designated front and back side. If the paper is loaded with the back side facing up for printing, the toner may not adhere properly, resulting in a poor image.
