AR-168S Copier Specifications
(MSRP $1,950.00; mfr. discontinued 2008)
The Sharp AR-168S advanced Digital Imager offers big machine functionality in a small desktop size. The AR-168S offers out-of-the-box performance copying, 600 dpi PC printing, and color PC scanning. And, with advanced features that include electronic sorting, offset stacking, and smart device sharing, the AR-168S is well equipped to deliver the productivity required in today's fast-paced small office environments. With flexible options that include Super G3 faxing, advanced networking, web-based management and more, this Imager can grow to meet your ever-changing business needs. Additionally, the AR-168S uses a cost-efficient conventional supply system (separate toner, developer, and drum), which is more economical than cartridge-based systems and can reduce your total cost of ownership.
