Superb Image Quality
Sharp’s latest 3rd-generation
Mycrostoner-HG (High Grade) and
a dual-component developer
system combine to provide
breathtaking image quality. The
toner’s smaller particle size
reduces graininess and enables
clear reproduction of fine lines,
fine text, and halftone colours.
Effective Paper Handling
The MX-C300/C250 comes standard with a 250-sheet paper tray
and a 50-sheet multi-bypass tray. A 500-sheet paper feed unit is
optionally available for a total paper capacity of 800 sheets. The
MX-C300/C250 can also accommodate heavy paper up to 220 g/m2,
expanding the range of possible printing applications.
The MX-C300/C250 has
a dedicated key for
easy copying of both
sides of a card (ID
cards, credit cards, etc.)
onto a single page.

Direct Printing
The MX-C300/C250 can print PDF, TIFF,
and JPEG files without using the
printer driver. And there’s a USB port
beneath the control panel, which
comes in handy when printing data
directly from USB memory devices—an
indispensable function for users who
are in a hurry or who want quick
machine access without a PC.
Network Printing
The MX-C300/C250 works as a network printer with the latest and
most commonly used operating systems and network protocols,
including IPv6, and even in mixed OS environments. It also supports,
as standard, the PCL 6 and PostScript® 3™ printer languages.
Ethernet (10Base-T/100Base-TX)
Macintosh
Windows®
Built-In Duplex Module
The MX-C300’s standard-equipped 50-sheet RSPF (reversing single
pass feeder) and the MX-C250’s 35-sheet SPF (single pass feeder)
ensure efficient document
feeding. Both the MX-C300 and
the MX-C250 can also make
two-sided copies and printouts
using a built-in stackless duplex
module, effectively reducing
paper costs as well as saving
MX-C300
filing space.

Full-Colour Network Scanning
The MX-C300/C250 works as a full-colour network scanner and
supports TIFF, PDF, and JPEG file formats. Converting any type of
paper-based document into an editable digital file is as easy as
making a copy.
Multiple Distribution of Scanned Files
You can choose different ways to distribute your scanned
documents: for example, send as an e-mail attachment or scan
directly to an FTP server for storage.

LDAP Support
Built-in LDAP (lightweight directory access protocol) support
eliminates the need to enter or register full addresses. Entering just
the first few letters of a recipient’s name prompts the MX-C300/
C250 to display a list of possible matches from your company’s
LDAP server. Selected addresses can be stored to the
MX-C300/C250’s address book.
OTHER OUTSTANDING FEATURES
Reliable Security
• IPsec data encryption technology ensures secure network
communications.
• User authentication covering up to 30 users prevents
unauthorised MFP use by requiring access passwords.
• Retained data can be initialised when it’s time to replace the MFP,
preventing the leakage of confidential information.
