Sharp Photocopiers: Pricing and Reviews

In typical MX style, the 7580N is a high-performance multifunction printer that can handle the highest of printing volume requirements with ease.

Its top features include a 10.1” colour LCD touchscreen, an extra-large paper capacity (max 8,500 sheets), and industry-leading security and data protection.

This machine has been designed for high-volume office environments, so if this sounds like your business, this could be the right fit. Sharp’s ‘Color Consistency System’ is said to guarantee consistent and excellent quality for every print job.

With ample printing finishing options, powerful resolution enhancement technology (RET), a 15.4” touchscreen, and low maintenance requirements, the MX-809N ticks all the boxes.

It’s no slouch, either, printing 80 pages per minute and boasting a 200 ipm (impressions per minute) scan speed. With so many impressive features, it’s no wonder this machine comes in at the more expensive end of Sharp’s photocopier prices.

This machine is really only appropriate for production-level environments, for your average small or medium-sized offices, the features and speed are too powerful and there are much better options on the market.

Need an MFP (multifunction printer) to help streamline your workflow? The MX-6071 could be the one.

It comes with mobile connectivity via Wi-Fi or QR code, so you can access the machine without needing to remember passcodes, plus a series of robust security features such as data encryption and self-healing firmware.

Plus, with 1,200 x 1,200 dpi, Sharp’s MX 6071 also delivers on the printing quality front.

It has Amazon Alexa interaction, giving your business futuristic abilities, you can request Alexa to make copies or scan a page. This handy hands-free feature can streamline productivity and a major selling point if your office is in need of quick copies without the manual labour.

The standard paper capacity is fairly low compared to other machines on the market. Each device has one 550-sheet paper tray and a 100-sheet bypass tray. Although you can scale up to 6,300 sheets with add-on features.

What the MX-4071 lacks in PPM, it makes up for with its impressive 6,300-sheet paper capacity, 1,200 x 1,200 dpi, and 220 ipm scanner, meaning you’re guaranteed high-quality prints and scans throughout the day.

It also offers excellent environmentally friendly features including a rapid warm up time, low power consumption, and automatic toner cartridge ejection, which fully consumes each one to ensure you maximise your resources.

Compared to the average, two-sided print jobs are faster on this machine and its among the fastest when scanning a two-sided document.

It does have its drawbacks however, users have noted that the secure print procedures are not very intuitive and the help function is fairly limited.

Ask us what we love about the MX-4061, and, of course, we’ll say the print release function.

This handy feature enables you to send and store documents on a primary MFP, which acts as a server. This means you can securely release sensitive documents at up to five connected network-ready printers around your office.

Sharp knows speed isn’t everything. Who needs a high PPM when you have a brilliant paper tray?

The MX-3571 can handle up to 6,300 sheets, and boasts a 150-sheet Duplex Single Pass Feeder with a scan speed of 220 ipm, and an LED light to remind you to remove original documents, helping to keep your private papers more secure.

This A4 multifunction printer can fit neatly onto most desks and worktops, making it an ideal machine for small to medium-sized offices that aren’t too fussed about lightning quick printing.

With an easy-to-read LCD control panel, customisable function keys, and full colour network scanning, the MX-C300W is there to help with your everyday workflow demands.

This machine is mobile-compatible so you can easily print from any digital device.

For this particular series of printers, Sharp won the Buyer’s Lab 2019 ‘Ease of Use’ PaceSetter award, which goes to show how user-friendly the MX-C303W can be.

Scanning and copying can be accessed through large icons, while you can also drag-and-drop other icons onto the home screen if you use those features frequently.

Ideal for reception areas, this printer also comes with fast document digitisation, enabling you to scan up to 25 business cards into your system at once.

In a similar vein to the C303W, the C304W focuses on ease of use and convenience, fitting comfortably in the smallest offices thanks to its slender build.

As far as standout features go, we love the Adobe Embedded Printer Engine (AEPE), which enables you to deliver up to 80% faster printing for mobile, cloud, and USB files. You can also save time with its flexible paper capacity, which can be stretched from a meagre 300 to a mighty 2,700 sheets.

Another compact, tabletop-friendly model, the MX-C250F packs a punch with its print, copy, scan, and fax skills, while it can also print in both colour and black and white with 600 x 600 dpi.

It’s not the flashiest machine in Sharp’s fleet of MFPs, but it’ll prove more than useful for small businesses that don’t have hectic printing requirements.
