Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Sharp BP-70M45 is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You're a 1-5 person personal/executive office that prints A3 mono but needs serious speed (45 ppm) for occasional big jobs.
  • You print 5,000-12,000 pages a month, mostly mono, and don't want users waiting at the device.
  • You scan large jobs — single-pass duplex at 280 ipm via the 300-sheet DSPF eats long contracts in seconds.
  • You need WPA3 wireless and TLS 1.3 standard for compliance work without a security upcharge.
  • You want one machine that prints, copies, scans, faxes (option) without paying for color you don't use.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 3,000-5,000 pages a month — the machine handles it; you're paying for headroom you may not use this year.
  • You occasionally need color — get color prints done elsewhere; this is mono only.
  • You need finishing — the BP-FN11 inner finisher (50-sheet staple) and console finishers (BP-FN13/14/15/16) are options.
  • You're replacing a Ricoh or Konica mono A3 — operators adapt in 1-2 weeks; menu logic differs.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 2,500 pages a month — get the BP-70M31 or a desktop A4 mono MFP; the 45 ppm engine is wasted.
  • You need color — get the BP-70C45 (same chassis, color engine).
  • You don't print 11x17 — get an A4 desktop mono MFP. The A3 chassis is overkill.
  • You only have 15A wall service — fine, this runs on 15A; just confirm at install (the 55/65 ppm variants need 20A).
  • You don't have floor space for a 24 x 26 x 34 inch unit at 157 lbs base, more with finisher.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Sharp BP-70M45 is the 45 ppm A3 mono MFP in the Advanced Series — built for 1-5 person personal/executive offices that print 5,000-12,000 pages a month and want serious throughput without paying for a color engine. Same 24 x 26 x 34 inch floor-standing chassis as the rest of the BP-70 line, same 10.1" tilting touchscreen with retractable keyboard, same 300-sheet single-pass DSPF that scans color at 280 ipm. Print and copy at 45 ppm black, first-page-out 4.5 seconds from the platen. Standard 650-sheet capacity (550-sheet drawer plus 100-sheet bypass), expandable to 6,300 with the optional split tandem and 3,000-sheet LCC. Runs on 110-127V/15A — same circuit as a regular office printer (the BP-70M55 and BP-70M65 step up to 20A). Standard Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0/3.0, 5 GHz Wi-Fi, AirPrint, Universal Print. Cloud connectors for Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint, Google Drive, Box, and Dropbox come standard. The thing buyers regret: ordering this for a true "personal" use of 500 pages a month — it's overbuilt for that. If your monthly print volume is under 2,500 pages, the BP-70M31 or a desktop saves real money.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 4 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging Sharp machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • "Decent workhorse for a legal office setting. Scanning to email works fine most of the time, though the learning curve on the UI took longer than expected for my staff. Maintenance costs haven't been terrible so far."
  • "Upgraded from an older model and the speed improvement is noticeable. Color output looks sharp and the finishing options have actually streamlined our in-house binding process."
  • "We got this for our office and it's been solid for about two years now. The copy quality is crisp and the finishing options actually work well for binding our client proposals in-house. Toner costs are reasonable too."
  • "It does what we need it to do for a mid-size office, though the touchscreen interface could be more intuitive. The finishing quality is pretty consistent month to month, which matters for our branded collateral."

FAQ

Sharp BP-70M45, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (305) 594-0470 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Sharp BP-70M45 ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter toner has a yield of approximately 40,000 pages at 5% coverage. The replacement toner model is BP-NT700, which also yields 40,000 pages. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Sharp BP-70M45 is a monochrome printer with a speed of 45 ppm, ideal for small offices printing 5,000-12,000 pages monthly. The Sharp BP-70C45 is a color printer with the same speed (45 ppm) but supports both black and color printing, suited for departments of 25-60 people printing 8,000-15,000 pages monthly. Both share the same chassis, 10.1" touchscreen, and 300-sheet DSPF, but the BP-70C45 includes color capabilities and a slightly slower first-page-out time for color (6.5 seconds vs. 4.5 seconds for mono). For small offices needing only monochrome, the BP-70M45 offers cost savings without sacrificing speed.
The Sharp BP-70M45 is ideal for small businesses with 1-5 users printing 5,000-12,000 pages monthly. It offers fast 45 ppm monochrome printing, a 300-sheet DSPF for efficient scanning, and expandable paper capacity up to 6,300 sheets. However, if your business prints under 2,500 pages monthly, consider the BP-70M31 or a desktop model for cost savings.
No, the Sharp BP-70M45 is a monochrome printer and only prints in black and white. If you need color printing, consider alternatives like the Sharp BP-70C45, which offers color capabilities at the same speed (45 ppm).
