Sharp AR-N275 Printer Review
The Sharp AR-N275 is a digital laser copier at its core, but its multifunction features and upgrades are quite impressive. Equipped with sharp 1200 dpi printing resolution, it can also output up to 27 pages per minute. Sharp AR-N275 printer toner is also affordable, making it a cost-effective choice for small or medium offices.
The AR-N275 can handle media sizes up to 11x17 inches, and automatic duplexing is included as a standard feature. Copying of two-sided originals does require an upgrade to an automatic document feeder, but this is an upgrade most buyers should make anyway.
Adding network scanning is also recommended, as it provides a solid platform for digital document sharing, along with Sharpdesk software for managing, editing, and organizing these files. Scans can be sent directly to an email address or FTP server, which can significantly reduce costs for paper and Sharp AR-N275 toner over time.
Busy offices may want to step up and add the network printing option, as the standard machine includes only a USB port for printing from a single PC. With a true 1200 dpi printing engine, users can expect very sharp and detailed prints, and the lack of color output means fewer toners to replace.
Replacement Sharp AR-N275 toner cartridges will be few and far between, as they come with high page yields. Each Sharp AR-N275 toner cartridge can supply around 25,000 pages, so they will last a long time even in high-volume printing and copying environments.
For the smaller office looking for a machine to grow with, or a medium-sized office looking for sharper output quality, the Sharp AR-N275 is a great choice. The base model provides a great platform for upgrading and customizing to a buyer's liking, and supplies are inexpensive.
