We were pleased to see that Poster mode was
included. This useful feature allows users to
create large posters using the device.
The device splits up the image into multiple
pieces each blown up to fit the paper size. The
user simply attaches the pieces together to
create a large poster.
This is useful for schools, churches, and small
retailers who need large format imagery but can’t
afford a device or the expensive outsource fees.
As you would expect of Sharp, there is plenty of
security in the driver, with network authentica-
tion, secure folder delivery, and private/hold
print with PIN functionality.
The drivers also include both watermark and
overlay capabilities. Users have the ability to
incorporate image overlay files into a print file.
This feature is most used as an entry level
method of electronic form printing where a stan-
dard background form design is stored on the
device. The raw data is sent as a print file and
merged with the background data at the device
level. This saves on network bandwidth and re-
duces processing time at the desktop.
We would have liked to have seen a distribution
numbering facility where each set is given its
own unique numbering watermark. This would
make tracking illegal distribution easier to track
back to the original recipient.
