Sharp AR-M236 Printer Review
Expert review of the Sharp AR-M236 printer
Our Verdict:
The Sharp AR-M236 is a copier and printer that delivers professional output with a resolution of 600 x 600 dpi. The AR M236 multifunction printer can also be integrated with a fax machine, scanner, and networking connectivity to increase efficiency. It is installed with 32 MB memory but it can be expanded up to 1,056 MB. The Sharp AR-M236 photocopier can only become compatible with Macintosh computers when the networking expansion is added. The print and copy speed of this unit is a bit slow at 23 ppm / cpm.
Design
This printer weighs 46 kg and measures 623 x 609 x 640.5 mm. Optional document finishers are available but the base unit has a scanner on top and paper trays below. For connectivity, there are USB and parallel ports. The Sharp AR-M236 laser copier printer has a paper handling capacity of 1,100 sheets, but with additional trays, this can be expanded to 1,200. The first copy can come out in less than 5 seconds, and warm up time for the ARM236 digital copier is 23 seconds.
Advantages
The Sharp AR-M236 digital multifunctional system is easy to use and install as it offers both parallel and USB interfaces. This unit delivers good quality output and has high paper handling capacity. The Sharp ARM236 mono laser printer can also continuously copy up to 999 pages. Designed to be productive and reliable, the original Sharp AR-M236 black toner cartridge delivers page after page of crisp text and images and only needs to be changed after printing 25,000 sheets.
Disadvantages
A print speed of 23 ppm is decent, but compared to other multifunction printers aimed at working environments, the Sharp AR-M236 multifunction copier is pretty slow. This model only offers optional networking and fax capability.
