A3 Network Scanning
The optional AR-NS2
Network Scanner Expansion
Kit turns the AR-M276 into a
convenient monochrome
network scanner. With the
touch of a few buttons, you
can choose one of three
ways to distribute your
scanned documents.
Scan to E-mail allows you
to send documents as an
attachment to any e-mail address over the Internet. Additionally,
an “ad hoc” feature allows you to conveniently enter an e-mail
subject title or file name from the touch-screen LCD.
Scan to FTP Server lets you scan a
document directly to an FTP server for
special applications such as company-wide
posting or archiving. Scan to Desktop
enables you to send scanned documents
directly to your desktop computer. And with
Sharpdesk™, Sharp’s powerful but easy-to-
use document management software (see
below), editing and managing scanned
documents is easier than ever.
Sharpdesk™ for Total Document Management
Sharpdesk™ is an original,
intuitive application that provides
integrated desktop management
of documents regardless of the
format. Once you scan
documents and images, or drag-
and-drop existing files
on your PC into
Sharpdesk™, you can
view their thumbnail
images and organise,
edit, search and
distribute your
documents in over
200 file formats for
maximum productivity.
VIEW & SEARCH
Sharpdesk’s built-in Search
engine displays results
clearly and logically, mak-
ing it fast and easy to find
and retrieve scanned docu-
ments or any electronic file
on your PC. You can also
view files in their native
format by dragging and
dropping them onto
Sharpdesk’s View/Work
area, where they will be displayed as easy-to-recognise thumb-
nail images. Sharpdesk supports over 200 kinds of file formats,
including Excel, Word, TIFF, JPEG and BMP.
EDIT & PROOFREAD
Sharpdesk Composer lets you
combine different types of files
into a single document through
simple drag-and-drop operation.
Image Editor provides a range
of useful annotation tools such as
labels, stamps and marks,
allowing network users to check
and proofread documents without
overwriting the original files
and without having to print out
a hard copy.
CONVERT & OUTPUT
Output your scanned documents by dragging them onto the
desired icon in the Output zone. You can archive, print, e-mail
or fax files, or open them in your favourite application.
Sharpdesk can convert documents to PDF format for
sending as easy-to-open e-mail attachments. It can also convert
scanned documents to editable text using OCR (optical
character recognition).
LDAP Compatibility for Network Scanning
Built-in LDAP (lightweight directory access protocol) support
eliminates the need to enter or register an entire e-mail address
from the LCD control panel. Simply enter the first few letters of
the recipient’s name and the AR-M276 displays a list of
possible matches from
names and e-mail
addresses on your
company’s LDAP server.
This feature saves
precious time and lets you
avoid errors when typing
e-mail addresses.
