The MX-M5051 A3 black & white device is ideal for any busy workgroup that needs high performance, high quality output and versatility; and the options and upgrades on offer make it adaptable to your future needs. It comes with a range of robust security features to keep your data and network safe including access control, data encryption and S/MIME as well as a self-healing firmware system, SSL certificate validation and a programme execution white list.

Support for a secondary LAN (optional) provides simultaneous support for two networks whilst the Print Release function allows users to send and store documents to a main MFP, which acts as a server, allowing print jobs to be securely released at up to five connected, network-ready devices. Optional workflow enhancing features include Single-Sign-On cloud connectivity, mobile connectivity via Wi-Fi, NFC or QR Code, USB direct printing of MS Office files and OCR for scan to searchable PDF/Office.

A tiltable 10.1” colour LCD touchscreen provides the ability to drag and drop frequently used icons for simple customisation of the home screen and communication lamps show the MFP’s status. Everyday operation is simple and intuitive; just touch, tap, pinch and spread or swipe for instant access to every feature, function and setting including an advanced preview feature.

Print and copy speeds of up to 50 ppm in black & white, a built-in 100-sheet Reversing Single Pass Feeder and a scan speed of up to 80 ipm (one-sided, colour and black & white) all help to boost efficiency and productivity. You can also top up the paper without pausing copy/print jobs which maintains productivity and reduces any downtime. The MX-M5051 provides page after page of consistently high quality 600 x 600 dpi print resolution. A maximum paper capacity of 6,300 sheets and support for a wide range of media (up to A3W and 300 gsm) enable this device to handle varied output requirements with ease. And a selection of finishing options such as saddle stitching, manual and stapleless stapling add further versatility.

The Sharp Application Portal makes the MFP much more adaptable by providing software updates and cloud connector apps that enable agile working.

The MX-M5051 uses Sharp’s latest energy-saving technology. A rapid warm up time, low power consumption and low TEC value all aim to save money and support your environmental objectives.
