Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Sharp BP-70C65 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 run a department of 60-150 people printing 18,000-35,000 pages a month, with no patience for users queuing at the device.
  • You need a fast walk-up experience — first-page-out at 3.7s black / 4.8s color is the fastest in the Advanced Series.
  • You scan high-volume jobs daily — 280 ipm single-pass duplex via the 300-sheet DSPF, plus the optional double-feed detection kit, keeps long jobs honest.
  • You want enterprise-grade security with WPA3 wireless, TLS 1.3 encryption, and the optional Bitdefender antivirus already supported.
  • You have 110-127V/20A circuits and the 24 x 26 x 34 inch base footprint plus room for a console finisher.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 12,000-18,000 pages a month — the machine handles it easily; you're paying for speed headroom in case usage grows.
  • You need a 65-sheet stapling finisher — the BP-FN12 inner finisher is the right one for the 65 ppm model (BP-FN11 is for 31/36/45/55 ppm), so spec it correctly.
  • You're replacing a Konica bizhub C658 or Canon iR-ADV C5760 — speed is comparable; the Sharp touchscreen UX is cleaner but the menu logic is different.
  • You want voice control — Sharp MFP Voice with Alexa works, but most users still drive the touchscreen for everyday copying.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 8,000 pages a month — at this volume the speed is wasted. Get the BP-70C45 or BP-70C55 instead.
  • You don't have 20A wall service — this draws 1.92 kW; the 31/36/45 ppm Advanced Series runs on 15A circuits.
  • You don't print 11x17 — get an A4 desktop MFP. The chassis cost and 192 lb footprint don't pay back if you're letter/legal only.
  • You only have 24 inches of floor width — this is a 24 x 26 x 34 inch base; the optional finishers add 8-30 inches of width.
  • You need true production speeds (75-90 ppm) — get the BP-70M75 or BP-70M90, but those are mono-only.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Sharp BP-70C65 is the fastest A3 color MFP in the Advanced Series at 65 ppm in both black and color — the right machine for departments of 60-150 people printing 18,000-35,000 pages a month who can't have users queuing. First-page-out is 3.7 seconds black / 4.8 color from the platen, the 300-sheet single-pass DSPF scans at 280 ipm, and the 10.1" tilting touchscreen with retractable keyboard ships standard. Standard 650-sheet capacity (550-sheet drawer plus 100-sheet bypass), expandable to 6,300 with the split tandem and the 3,000-sheet large capacity cassette. Runs on 110-127V/20A drawing 1.92 kW — plan the electrical at install. WPA3 wireless, TLS 1.3 encryption, and cloud connectors for Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint, Google Drive, Box, and Dropbox all come standard. The thing buyers regret: spec'ing the wrong finisher. The BP-FN12 inner finisher is the 65 ppm-only version; the BP-FN11 (used on the 31/36/45/55 ppm models) doesn't fit. Get this wrong on the order and the install gets pushed two weeks.

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 5 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging Sharp machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • ★ "We use this for our small law office and it handles our high-volume printing and copying without any issues. The color output is sharp and the network setup was straightforward. Been running for two years now with minimal maintenance."
  • ★ "Good workhorse machine for our print shop. Color quality is solid and the finishing options are useful, though the learning curve on the touch panel took a bit longer than I expected. Haven't had any real problems with it."
  • ★ "We use this in our office for high-volume printing and it handles everything we throw at it. The color output is sharp and the finishing options have actually reduced our binding costs."
  • ★ "Good machine overall, though the learning curve on the finishing functions took longer than I expected. Once we figured it out the stapling and folding work reliably."
  • ★ "Does what it's supposed to do. Color quality is consistent and the network setup wasn't too painful. Paper jams happen more often than I'd like but nothing out of the ordinary for this class of machine."

FAQ

Sharp BP-70C65, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (706) 561-0075 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

The Sharp BP-70C65 ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter toner yields approximately 40,000 pages for black and 24,000 pages for each color (cyan, magenta, yellow) at 5% coverage. Replacement toners are the Sharp BP-NT70 series, which are high-yield cartridges designed for high-volume environments. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Sharp BP-70C65 is faster, printing at 65 ppm in both black and color, compared to the BP-70C45's 45 ppm. The BP-70C65 is designed for larger departments (60-150 people) with higher monthly print volumes (18,000-35,000 pages), while the BP-70C45 is suited for smaller teams (25-60 people) printing 8,000-15,000 pages monthly. The BP-70C65 has a faster first-page-out time (3.7s black / 4.8s color) compared to the BP-70C45 (4.6s black / 6.5s color). Both models share similar features like a 10.1" touchscreen and expandable paper capacity, but the BP-70C65 requires a 20A circuit, whereas the BP-70C45 runs on standard power. For small offices with lower print volumes, the BP-70C45 offers better value.
The Sharp BP-70C65 is ideal for medium to large departments printing 18,000-35,000 pages monthly, making it overkill for most small businesses. Its 65 ppm speed and advanced features like a 300-sheet DSPF and enterprise-grade security are better suited for larger teams. Small businesses with lower print volumes (under 8,000 pages/month) should consider the Sharp BP-70C45 or other smaller models.
Yes, the Sharp BP-70C65 is a color multifunction printer capable of printing in both black and color at 65 ppm. It uses high-yield color toners (BP-NT70 series) for vibrant, high-quality output.
