Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Sharp MX-B427PW 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 home office, satellite location, or small team of 2-8 people that needs a fast mono printer (42 ppm) with Wi-Fi standard, sitting on a desk.
  • You print 500-2,500 pages a month — letters, contracts, shipping labels — and want the cheapest practical cost-per-page in this class.
  • You print confidential documents and want PIN-released print at the device — Confidential Print is standard via the 2-line LCD.
  • You need an ultra-compact footprint — 14.5 x 14.3 x 8.7 inches, 20.6 lb. Fits anywhere a desk lamp does.
  • You print from iPhones and Android — AirPrint, Android print framework, and Wi-Fi Direct all standard.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print up to 4,000 pages a month — engine handles it but plan to add the optional MX-CS26 550-sheet feed unit (pushes total to 900 sheets).
  • You need legal-size duplex — supported through both the standard drawer and bypass.
  • You sometimes need to print envelopes — bypass tray handles them, but only 10 envelopes fit in the exit tray before you need to clear it.
  • You manage a fleet — Sharp Remote Device Manager (SRDM) supports it, but Sharp notes some SRDM features may not be available on this model. Confirm with your dealer.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You need scan, copy, or fax — this is print-only despite the Sharp manifest sometimes listing it as multifunction. The MX-B467P is the MFP version.
  • You need color — mono only.
  • You need 11x17 (ledger) — max output is 8.5 x 14 (legal).
  • You need Gigabit Ethernet — wired interface is 10/100 only on this model. The MX-B350P/B450P go to Gigabit.
  • You need 1,200 dpi — this is 600 x 600 only.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Sharp MX-B427PW is a 42-ppm desktop monochrome laser printer for home offices, satellite locations, and small teams of 2-8 people that need a fast print-only device with Wi-Fi out of the box. It runs PCL 6 and PostScript 3, prints at 600 x 600 dpi, and pulls from a 250-sheet drawer plus a 100-sheet bypass (350 sheets standard, expandable to 900 with the optional MX-CS26 550-sheet feed unit). First print is 5.9 seconds, the engine is a 1 GHz multi-processor with 256 MB of memory, and standard auto duplex covers two-sided print on letter and legal. Wireless is 802.11 b/g/n plus Wi-Fi Direct, mobile print includes AirPrint and the Android print framework, and the front 2-line LCD handles Confidential Print release via PIN. Network interface is 10/100 wired Ethernet (not Gigabit) and USB 2.0. Footprint is 14.5 x 14.3 x 8.7 inches at 20.6 lb — fits on a desk return next to a monitor. The thing buyers regret: assuming PW means MFP. It doesn't — there's no scanner, no glass, no ADF. If you need to scan, the MX-B467P is the MFP version on a similar chassis. Best for offices that already have a scanner and just need a quiet, fast, wireless mono printer.

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.
