Re: U.S. Government Procurement; Title III,

Origin of Multifunctional Printer
Machines; substantial transformation
Dear Mr. Baumgartner:
This is in response to your letter, dated
November 26, 2007, requesting a final
determination on behalf of Sharp Electronics
Corporation (‘‘Sharp’’) pursuant to subpart B
of 19 CFR Part 177. We apologize for the
delay in our response.
Under these regulations, which implement
Title III of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979,

as amended (19 U.S.C. 2511 et seq.)(‘‘TAA’’),
CBP issues country of origin advisory rulings
and final determinations as to whether an
article is or would be a product of a
designated country or instrumentality for the
purposes of granting waivers of certain ‘‘Buy
American’’ restrictions in U.S. law or
practice for products offered for sale to the
U.S. Government.
This final determination concerns the
country of origin of certain multifunctional
printer machines that Sharp may sell to the
U.S. Government. We note that Sharp is a
party-at-interest within the meaning of 19
CFR 177.22(d)(1) and is entitled to request
this final determination. A conference was
held on this matter at Headquarters on
August 25, 2008.
FACTS:
This case involves the Sharp Dragon II Jmodels (Sharp model # MX–M550N/UJ, MX–
M620N/UJ, and MX–M700N/UJ). These
models have monochrome copying, printing,
faxing and duplex scanning functions.
Sharp Corporation, Sharp’s parent
company (‘‘Sharp Japan’’) developed the
Dragon II J-models in Japan, including the
engineering, development, design and art
work processes. The production of the
Dragon II J–Models begins with the
preparation of the key subassemblies and
units. According to your submission, there
are 11 main subassemblies that compose the
Dragon II J-models. Of the eleven
subassemblies that compose the Dragon II J–
Models, only the drum unit subassembly is
assembled in Japan. The remaining 10
subassemblies are assembled in China with
parts from Japan and China. The final
assembly of the merchandise is performed in
Japan.
The Subassemblies Assembled in China
According to your submission, the
subassemblies which are themselves
assembled in China are essentially as follows:
The laser scanning unit (‘‘LSU’’) creates
text or images on the photoconductor drum.
It consists of a housing, synchronous lens,
two cylindrical lenses, and asynchronous
lower lens.
The transfer belt unit transfers the image
created on the drum onto the surface of the
paper for printing.
The multifunctional printer cabinet
subassembly is comprised of the mechanical
frame for the printer engine along with
exterior panels, paper transport and exit
components, paper driver motors, cooling
fans and filters, sensors and switches for
detecting paper and whether doors are open
or closed, the paper manual feed unit, the
toner supply motors and sensors, paper
transport motors and sensors, the duplex
section, the toner image transfer section, the
image scanner section and the operation
panel.
The main charger unit subassembly
charges the surface of the drum evenly by
application of high voltage so that it can form
electrostatic images when irradiated by laser
beams.
The process unit subassembly houses the
drum used for creating images. The drum is
produced and installed in China.
The developer unit is used to transfer toner
evenly over the latent image created on the
