3. Introduction to colour
The benefits of the MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310 are not restricted to large or medium sized companies – there
is also a strong case for smaller businesses as well.
Many smaller offices just don’t need to be able to output A3 sheets, or maybe can’t afford the costs and physical
space associated with an A3 device, but do need to be able to produce colour documents. Often this can lead to
multiple different devices being used, including:
• A mono laser printer
• A separate fax machine
• An inkjet printer (thanks to the perception that colour laser products are too expensive)
• A stand-alone scanner
This kind of environment, with several different models, often from several different manufacturers, is inefficient and
often does not adequately cover the office’s document needs. It also restricts the availability of colour output,
meaning that not everyone in the company can enjoy the benefits. Replacing all of these devices with a single
MX-C381/C311 or MX-C380/C310 means you can save money and become more efficient in several ways, whatever
your document requirement
s.
The MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310 can be configured to suit any office’s document requirements.
Paper handling, finishing, security and network applications (such as Sharp OSA, Sharpdesk etc) can all be modified,
making the MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310 the most flexible devices in their class. No other models offers this
kind of flexibility in such a small footprint, and offering such fast speeds – for copying, printing and scanning.
• The MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310’s speed, small footprint and modular design mean they can be
tailored to fit any office’s document requirements.
• By consolidating up to 4 devices into a single unit, you can save space.
• A single unit is likely to consume less power than 4 separate units.
• A single set of consumables is needed, instead of potentially 4 different sets, saving space and making it
easier to manage costs.
• An MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310 is likely to be able to print, copy and even scan at a faster rate
than cheaper single-use devices, saving time.
• Smaller, stand-alone products are unlikely to have the ability to produce finished documents, or have
document filing functionality.
• If floor space is at a premium, the MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310 are already the smallest in their
class, and can even be configured to sit on a desk.
• Sharp OSA-based applications can be used to improve office efficiency.
4. High speed colour A4 devices
Whatever the size of business, some companies simply require high speed colour A4 devices in order to service their
document needs (for example, for printing invoice batches etc), whether this be in addition to other A3-based
requirements or on an A4-only basis.
By offering the MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310, Sharp can cover this requirement quite easily, whilst the modular
design of the MFP and high-technology included means that they can be configured to exactly meet the needs of any
company deciding on their A4 colour requirements.
• The MX-C381/C311 & MX-C380/C310 are amongst the fastest A4 machines available.
• They are also amongst the smallest, especially compared with machines of a similar speed, so even
high-volume printing need not take up a lot of space – even if the finisher is installed!
