SHARP OSA
Sharp OSA (Open Systems Architecture) is an architecture that enables external applications to be directly
connected to a digital multifunction machine over a network.
When a digital multifunction machine that supports Sharp OSA is used, the operation panel controls and functions
of the machine such as scan send can be linked to an external application.
There are two types of external applications: "standard application" and "external account application". An "external
account application" is used for centralized account management of a multifunction machine on a network. A
"standard application" refers to all other applications.
APPLICATION
COMMUNICATION
MODULE (MX-AMX2)
The application communication module is required to use a "standard application" on the machine.
When a previously registered standard application is selected in the Web pages of the machine, the machine
retrieves the operation screen from the registered URL. Control of the operation screen is performed by the standard
application, and Scan to FTP can be executed.
Standard application setup
To register a standard application in the machine's Web pages, click [External Applications] in the administrator menu
frame and then click [Standard Applications]. Configure settings for the standard application in the screen that
appears.
Selecting a standard application
There are two methods for selecting a standard application that has been registered in the machine's Web pages.
Selecting a standard application from the job status screen
The Sharp OSA icon will appear in the lower left-hand corner of the job status screen. Follow the steps below to
select a standard application.
1
Touch the Sharp OSA icon.
If
no
standard
applications have been
stored in the Web pages,
the
key
cannot
be
touched.
2
Select the standard application.
If two or more standard
applications have been
stored in the Web pages,
the screen to select the
standard application will
appear.
Touch
the
standard application that
you wish to use.
If only one standard application has been stored in
the Web pages, connection to the standard
application will begin.
3
The machine connects to the standard
application.
The message "Connecting to the external
application."
appears
while
the
machine
communicates with the standard application.
