Sharp BP-70C31

The Sharp BP-70C31 is a floor-standing A3 color laser MFP from the Advanced Series, built for workgroups of 10-30 people that need in-house 11x17 color, daily scanning, and a long lease life. It prints and copies 31 ppm in both black and color, scans at up to 280 ipm via the 300-sheet single-pass DSPF, and ships with 650 sheets of standard paper capacity (one 550-sheet drawer plus a 100-sheet bypass), expandable to 6,300 sheets with optional drawers and the 3,000-sheet LCC. The 10.1" tilting touchscreen with retractable keyboard handles complex scan-to-Teams, scan-to-OneDrive, and scan-to-Box workflows out of the box, and the WPA3 wireless plus TLS 1.3 encryption is the reason most of our legal and healthcare clients pick the Advanced Series over the older MX line. Standard PCL 6 and Adobe PostScript 3, Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0/3.0, and 5 GHz Wi-Fi all in the base. The thing buyers regret: paying for color they don't print. If your color volume is under 10% of total, look at the mono BP-70M31 — same chassis, half the toner cost.
