Sharp launches 10 new fax machines

JAKARTA: PT Sharp Yasonta Indonesia (Sharp Indonesia), a local
affiliation of the Japan-based Sharp Corporation, aims to acquire
a 30 percent share of the domestic facsimile machines market by
launching 10 new types of high speed fax machines on Wednesday.

The newly launched fax machines included two thermal
facsimiles, five plain-paper, one jet-ink and two lasers.

Sharp Indonesia marketing and sales director Jino Sugianto
said that the new machines had a high data sending speed of two
seconds per sheet.

One of the new machines, the Sharp FO-CC500, is a combination
of a fax machine and wireless phone equipped with a built-in
answering machine and caller-ID, said Jino.

Sharp Indonesia, a producer of office and household electronic
products, currently owns two plants in Pulogadung, East Jakarta
and Karawang, West Java. Last year, its Indonesian sales were
dominated by refrigerators, amounting to 550,000 units. -- JP/003
