A3 Colour Network Scanning
The MX-2314N works as a full-colour network scanner and
supports TIFF, PDF, encrypted PDF, XPS, JPEG, and PDF/A file formats.
Converting any type of paper-based document, up to A3 (11" x 17")
in size, into an editable digital file is as easy as making a copy.
Enhanced scan performance improves the legibility of extremely fine
text and allows vivid colour reproduction in scanned documents. And
Auto Colour Selection chooses the right mode for scanning
originals containing both colour and B/W pages (see page 4).
Multiple Distribution of Scanned Files
With the touch of a few on-screen buttons, you can choose
different ways to distribute your scanned documents. Scan to
E-mail sends documents as an e-mail attachment. Scan to FTP
Server scans documents directly to an FTP server for storage. Scan
to Desktop sends scanned documents directly to your PC
desktop. Scan to Network Folder (SMB) sends files to a shared
folder on a networked Windows PC. Scan to USB Memory scans
documents directly to USB memory devices. And Scan to Fax
enables conventional faxing or Internet faxing.
Quick Scanning
For both colour*
1
and B/W documents, the MX-2314N carries out
scanning at 50 opm*
2
(originals per minute) and can complete
large scan jobs with ease and efficiency.
*1: Faxing is available in B/W only. *2: Single-side scanning
High-Speed Faxing
The optional MX-FX11 Fax Expansion Kit turns the MX-2314N into
a 33.6 Kbps Super G3 fax machine. Quick On-Line Transmission
initiates dialling and transmitting as soon as a page is scanned into
memory. JBIG compression technology lets the MX-2314N send an
A4 (8
1
/2" x 11") size page in under three seconds*. And using
the 100-sheet RSPF gives faxing efficiency a further boost.
Incoming faxes are also handled with automated ease. The
number of copies to be made can be specified on the LCD control
panel’s Fax Output setting, and optional finishing options can be
installed for automatic stapling of those copies.
* Based on Sharp’s standard chart with approximately 700 characters (A4 or
8
1
/2" x 11" long-edge feeding) at standard resolution.
PC-Fax/PC-Internet Fax
Directly send a document created on your PC to a recipient’s fax
machine via a phone line or the Internet without printing to paper.
Save time and paper costs while retaining original document quality.
Note: PC-Internet Fax requires optional MX-EB16 and MX-FWX1; PC-Fax
requires MX-FX11.
Internet Fax
Economically send and receive faxes to and from other ITU-T
T-37-compliant Internet fax machines via the Internet. The
MX-2314N supports Direct SMTP; outgoing Internet faxes do not
go through your mail server, making transmission faster and
cheaper.
Note: Requires optional MX-EB16 and MX-FWX1.
Paperless Faxing with Inbound Routing
Paperless faxing with inbound routing lets you check incoming
faxes via e-mail before printing. It can also forward incoming faxes
to another fax/Internet fax machine, an FTP server, a network
folder (SMB), or a PC desktop. Files can be saved in either PDF or
TIFF (single/multi).
Note: Requires optional MX-EB16 and MX-FX11 or MX-FWX1.
Skip Blank Page Function
When scanning and sending a multi-page document, the
MX-2314N automatically recognises and skips over any pages
without content, reducing both data size and transmission time.

LDAP Support
Built-in LDAP (lightweight directory access protocol) support
eliminates the need to enter or register full addresses. By entering
the first few letters of the recipient’s
name, the MX-2314N displays a list
of possible matches from your
company’s LDAP server. Selected
addresses can be stored to the
MX-2314N’s address book.
IMAGE SENDING
Industry-Leading Multi-Layered Security
Designed to protect your business assets and bring you peace of mind, Sharp’s industry-leading security solutions employ multiple levels of
security functions covering a broad range of network and data security needs. The MX-2314N safeguards sensitive data with powerful,
enhanced security functions that eliminate the worry of unauthorised use and guarantee greater protection for your confidential information.
Secure Network Access
The IP/MAC address filtering function provides highly secure
operation by restricting access to the MFPs on your office network.
Only PCs that have either their IP address or MAC (media access
control) address registered are allowed to use the MFPs.
Attempted access from an
unknown IP or MAC
address will be denied,
preventing unauthorised
use. The MX-2314N also
supports the IEEE 802.1X
standard for port-based
network access control,
which blocks all access from
unauthorised devices.
User Authentication
The MX-2314N prevents unauthorised use by requiring
passwords for machine access. This safeguarded solution can
register up to 1,000 users in three access levels as Administrator,
User, or Guest and can designate to which function user
authentication applies. The MX-2314N can, for example, be set to
allow B/W copying by all users while restricting colour copying to
designated users. And the MX-2314N works with an external
Active Directory server to extend user authentication to multiple
MFPs and a greater number of users.
Scan to Me Function
Scan to Me lets a logged-in authorised user send scanned data to
his/her own e-mail address simply by pressing the start button. This
eliminates the need to manually enter or select the address, thereby
preventing documents from being sent to the wrong address.
IPv6 and IPsec Support
The MX-2314N supports the IPv6 Internet protocol. An obligatory
part of IPv6 is IPsec (IP Security), a set of protocols for securing
Internet protocol (IP) communications. IPsec encrypts and
authenticates traffic between specified parties, giving
IPsec-compatible products an extremely high level of network security.
Document Control Function
Document Control prevents unauthorised copying, scanning,
faxing, and filing of confidential documents by embedding copy
prevention data onto a document. When that data is detected,
any unauthorised attempts to copy will be cancelled or will result
in only blank-page output.
Note: Requires optional MX-EB16 and MX-FR40U. May not work for certain
types of documents or paper.
Data Initialisation
The MX-2314N’s initialisation function allows confidential
information to be erased at the administrator’s discretion via the
MFP’s system setting. Initialising an MFP when it’s time to replace it
prevents important resources, such as customer information and
intellectual property, from leaking out and provides considerable
peace of mind.
Data Encryption and Overwriting
Digital copier/printers and MFPs can retain hundreds of pages of
confidential information from previous jobs on their hard disks or
internal memory. To safeguard such information from
unauthorised access, the MX-2314N automatically encrypts
document data stored on the
hard disk and in the address
book. Standard-equipped security
features also provide up to seven
automatic overwrites of data
generated for each job,
password protection of
Document Filing data, and more.
Note: Requires optional MX-EB16.
Contact a Sharp customer
representative for details on activating
these security functions.
SECURITY
Secure Sockets Layer
SSL (secure sockets layer) enables the encryption of data
communications to prevent data leakage through the network
when printing via IPP, browsing secure Web pages (HTTPS), or
communicating via e-mail (SMTP and POP3) or FTP (FTPS).

Encrypted PDF with Password Protection
To prevent unauthorised viewing of confidential data, the
MX-2314N enables scanned PDF data to be password protected
and encrypted for transmission over the network. After
transmission, viewers can gain access to the encrypted PDF only
after re-entering the password.
Note: Direct printing of encrypted PDF files requires optional MX-EB16.
