If you answered, “Yes” to this question, you came to the right place! As a business owner or purchasing manager for your office, it’s important you take some time to look into how much a Sharp copier costs as well as the extra add-ons you can purchase separately with your machine. > **The costs associated with Sharp Copiers range in price,** depending on your specific business needs and goals. While some Sharp B&W Digital MFPs (multi-function printers) range between **$925.00–$4,800.00**, other Sharp Color MFPs range between **$2,900–$10,000**.   Have you ever heard of an MFP or a “multifunction printer?” An MFP is the combination of a copier, scanner, and printer—an all-in-one device designed to help make your copying and printing tasks easier to complete, in a shorter amount of time. Let’s face it; office equipment is pricey. Sometimes it seems that even if you bite the bullet and spend a lot on your office machines, you’re still facing with unreliable technology or poor customer service. We feel your pain and understand your frustrations when it comes to office copiers and business solutions. However, we made this process a little easier for you to go through and have some answers to share about Sharp copier costs and what your business will be spending with a new Sharp copy machine. Authorized Sharp MFPs are designed with user simplicity and data security, while also keeping your budget in mind. There’s a variety of Sharp copiers on the market, leaving you with endless options to choose for your business. Follow along as we go over the average costs of Sharp copiers, the features of Sharp copiers and MFPs, and the best ways to find a Sharp copier for your business. Are you wondering the benefits of purchasing a copy machine in the first place? Read the article “The Balance Small Business” published, *Before You Buy a Copier for Your Small or Home Office*.   ## Pricing and Costs Explained: Sharp Copy Machine Cost We’ve categorized some of the most common Sharp copiers by sorting them by price, pages per minute (ppm), and the color quality. #### Sharp MX-B201D This sharp MFP is one of the more basic MFPs Sharp offers, but for a small machine, good for any small business or office. The average price of this machine is around **$800.00** with 20 ppm—ideal for smaller-medium sized workgroups. If your office doesn’t print much or has a less than average print volume, snagging a few of these MFPs might be your best bet.     #### Sharp Black & White Digital MFP Sharp’s B&W Digital MFPs are great machines for medium-large sized workgroups, who don’t necessarily need color printing for their documents and printed materials.   The ppm of these machines range from 21–30 ppm, with prices ranging from **$925.00–$4,800.00.** Depending on the model, these MFPs can include a built-in retractable keyboard, high-resolution touchscreen display, and a standard security feature.   [![Find the right copy machine for you Get recommendations based on your specific needs in 5 minutes or less.  ](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2151016/interactive-164237705777.png) ](https://www.ais-now.com/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLI4V4f1kXZ29IY2VFZm87Wyk91V7oEZeKrYMUOykV5bRSpZhqwuGwdZD8qGl67uk17eb6UeTG5REcmt9V60a6M9TlySSpr%2FTYv6EJC1K%2FbFl8FRlzrhZqTwJNlm1CC6QHZtuJDdWCHobi5QKunYs7gnuWtyUiigZYbQJPnnmTj7QbXXYApQ2XdqpDgfIGMSiRAZLV06zRp01oVNF8GbbKQVchr1roVfRxdkAUztkgAeSd%2Fe%2FGtq9sMjuTxjawQWzXOvKGvXP20ihrvqdP2ppLqgJLbK%2FlRBXDmy5mDRpFV1kUSj1tx8yIzsjbnw4TWZDXLGuoHG%2Bb%2Bo%2B5TA79v1R04%3D&webInteractiveContentId=164237705777&portalId=2151016) #### Sharp Color MFP Sharp’s Color MFPs range in size, color quality, and print speed; so choosing any of these really depends on your business and the type of work you do. For this category, we are only looking at the color MFPs that rang in ppm from 31-45 ppm. These color MFPs are all different, and all come with individualized features, ranging in price anywhere from **$2,900–$10,000**. If you need a little extra help assembling your reports and pages, some of these MFPs include stapling, making your job a lot easier. #### A Variety of Sharp Series Sharp also offers three different series of printers and MFPs that you can also use as a guide to sort and categorize their office equipment. The Advanced Series are solution-integrated document systems for smaller workgroups, but with demanding workflows and even high-volume and network printing needs. The Essential Series is more value-based document systems, meaning they are more specific to your individualized line of work or business needs. These office copiers offer expandability for growing businesses or departments. Lastly, the Pro Series is all about high-performance for larger, more time-consuming projects. If your business is more deadline-based or on-demand assignments, this series is probably for you. Still, wanting to learn more about how much a copier costs?
