Sharp Document Solutions Company of America introduces three new models designed to streamline workflow and meet the needs of the most demanding work environments. With a fast 16 page-per-minute output, the new Super G3 workgroup models utilize modular component architecture so workflow components can be added as business needs evolve. The FO-DC535 and FO-DC635 offer fast, flexible performance for every business need, while the FO-4470 delivers advanced functionality in a compact, desktop design. The new products all have advanced document security with secure fax release to ensure privacy for confidential environments.

Designed for busy workgroups, the FO-DC535 and FO-DC635 Document Communication Systems offer advanced network scanning, network printing, Web-based management, remote diagnostics and PC LAN faxing to transmit documents via fax from a desktop PC. The models include a 50-sheet document feeder and a 750-sheet letter/legal paper supply that is upgradeable to a robust 1, 250 sheets on the FO-DC635. The units' standard flash memory (8 MB on the FO-DC535 and 16 MB on the FO-DC635) ensures that received transmissions can be retrieved in the event of a power surge or failure.

The FO-DC535 and FO-DC635 have some of the most robust dialing capabilities in their class.

With optional expansion kits, the FO-DC535 and FO-DC635 offer Web-based management for scan and fax destination control, device configuration and more. Other options include PCL6 network printing and full-color network scanning that enables users to share documents easily with convenient scan-to-email, scan-to-desktop, scan-to-FTP, scan-to-URL and scan-to-print features. Sharp's integrated desktop document management software, Sharpdesk, allows scanned documents to be edited, saved or distributed quickly and easily. Additionally, for mission critical environments, the optional dual-line kit for the FO-DC635 allows users to transmit and receive documents simultaneously over two phone lines for added efficiency.

With Super G3 technology, 1.3-second quick scan and a robust 16-PPM print engine, the FO-4470 delivers peak performance in today's busy offices and workgroups. For added efficiency, the FO-4470 comes with advanced features including document memory backup, personal auto-dial phone books, remote diagnostics so the facsimile can be monitored remotely by an authorized service technician and a large "tilt-status" display for easy viewing.
