SHARP OSA™ TECHNOLOGY WINS 2008 BERTL'S BEST DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM AWARD!

Sharp AIP / OSA DCA is an Authorized Integrator of SHARP's OSA™ Technology, which means that we can integrate Sharp's OSA-enabled MFPs to seemlessly interface with your desktop applications.

Sharp OSASharp OSA brings the power of open systems architecture to the consumer by opening the door to a broad array of value-added functionality in your Multi-Function Printers (MFPs). It is designed to let network applications control the MFP through bi-directional communication. This allows users to interact with business applications directly from the front panel of the MFP.
