Hello
I’m using a sharp MX3610N copier and I can’t find any remote operation settings. In France, nobody knows how to solve the problem. Sharp has not released any new firmware. Sharp France customer service is useless.
I would like to use Real vnc viewer because the copier is too old to be used with new browsers.

That model doesn’t have this feature, unfortunately.
Greetings,
I successfully connected to printers via VNC, my problem is i have to confirm on the printer for every connection! Is there a way around this? as in, how to make printers remember connections

Try using google chrome or an older browser like internet explorer rather than edge.
Didn’t work for me on Sharp MX-3050V
None of the options worked. I set all three to Allowed, but still nothing.
Did you enter your computer’s IP address in the field for the middle option?
