Sharp Embedded App

Overview

This section provides technical instructions specific to integrating Umango with Sharp MFP devices. With Sharp devices the Umango app does not deploy automatically and will need to manually configured prior to assigning jobs to the device.

Device Integration

Steps to Install the Application

  1. Access the MFP Web Panel:
    Open a web browser and navigate to the MFP’s web panel using the device's IP address.
  2. Log In:
    Click the login button in the top-right corner of the panel. Use the administrator password (typically "admin").
  3. Navigate to Settings:
    • For newer models:
      • Go to System Settings » Sharp OSA Settings » Standard Application Settings.
    • For pre-CR4 models:
      • Go to Applications » External Applications Settings » Standard Application Settings.
  4. Add Umango Application:
    • Scroll to the bottom of the table and click the Add button to load the form.
    • Enter the following details:
        • Name: Umango
        • Address: http://{SERVERIP}:{PORT}/mfd/init/sharp/{SERIAL_NUMBER}
          Replace {SERVERIP} with the IP address or hostname of the server running Umango, {PORT} with the default port, 50080, and {SERIAL_NUMBER} with the device's serial number as seen in the source devices list.
        • Extended Platform: Ensure this box is checked.
  5. Save the Configuration:
    • Leave all other settings, including the proxy setting, as default.
  6. Umango Icon:
    • A suitable icon image for creating the OSA entry is available for download in the dealer portal’s technical section.
  7. Verify Installation:
    • After saving, the Umango application will appear in the table under the list of Extended Applications.
    • At the MFP, select SharpOSA. The Umango app will be listed among other OSA extended applications or will launch automatically if it is the only installed application.
