Paper Output/Finishing
The Sharp MX-3501N comes with a variety
of finishing options and configurations.
Sold as is, the paper will exit underneath
the control panel from the right hand side.
Users can choose to output each set
rotating between a letter/A4 and letter
R/A4R paper drawer. While this reduces
productivity marginally due to the changing
media supply, the user can quickly and
easily divide up each set which are output
at 90 degrees to each other.
There are two finishers that are available,
the internal finisher and the floor standing
saddle stitch finisher.
With the internal finisher, users retrieve the
documents underneath the control panel,
but from a tray and with a variety of more
options. In order to sort, a shift tray will
move front and back to ensure sets are
separated. This finisher will staple up to 50
sheets at a time which is high for a internal
finisher. Competitors usually max out at 30
sheets.
Up to 500 sheets can be stacked by the
internal finisher which is again better than
some competitors which have a 300 sheet
limit in the internal finisher. Perhaps the
most significant strength of the Sharp’s
internal finisher versus competitors’ is the
ability to add a two- and three-hole punch
unit.
Some competitors only offer this feature on
floor-standing external finishers. This
finishing unit will have a more attractive
price tag than the saddle stitch unit and is
