Aug 5, 2016 7:52 AM in response to Loremasterby andrew_clark,How are you trying to scan (scan to desktop or scan to email)?
If you are trying to scan to desktop, this will not work with Sharp & Mac.
If you are trying to scan to email, then the DNS settings in the Sharp MFP have to first be setup (get with your network administrator on this one), then it's just a matter of scanning the document(s) and selecting your email address from the Sharp email address book or type it in manually.
In other words, you don't control the scanner portion from your Mac, you control it from the Sharp MFP operation panel. And in the case of scan to email, you do not even need the Sharp print driver installed on your Mac for this to work.

Aug 5, 2016 8:12 AM in response to andrew_clarkby andrew_clark,I am giving you this advise as a certified Sharp technician and a Mac user of 30+ years. So take it for what it's worth.
By they way, if other [Windows] coworkers can successfully scan to email from the Sharp MFP, then the DNS settings are already in place and you just need to get your email address added to the Sharp MFP's address book (if it's not already there).
Best wishes!
