Sharp MX-M904 Toner Cartridges

Sharp MX-M904 Printer Review

Part of a series of high-volume, high-performance multifunction laser printers, the Sharp MX-M904 offers a bit of a price break due to its slightly slower speeds. Of course, its maximum output speed of 90 pages per minute is still very impressive, and buyers will save a lot on Sharp MX-M904 printer toner supplies, as long as they can overcome its high initial price tag.

The MX-M904 is designed to take advantage of modern network environments, with a built-in ethernet port. With its 1 TB hard drive, it not only provides storage for scanned documents, but it can share them across the network for easy access. Users can also browse files on the 10.1-inch touchscreen display for easy printing, or insert a USB storage device into the front-mounted port and skip the network entirely.

The MX-M904 is not only built for heavy duty printing, but also heavy duty scanning. It includes a 250-sheet duplexing automatic document feeder that can scan a two-sided sheet in a single pass. The ImageSEND feature offers numerous destinations for scanned documents, from USB memory devices and the internal hard drive, to email and network folder locations.

Offices used to spending too much on replacement toners will enjoy the break. Sharp MX-M904 toner cartridges are relatively inexpensive to replace, especially given their large capacities. Each Sharp MX-M904 toner cartridge has an estimated yield of 120,000 pages, so replacements will be few and far between.

The MX-M904 isn't for everyone. Its bulky frame and expensive upfront price will take it out of the running for smaller offices with tight budgets. Still, for a high-volume office, its performance is well worth the cost, and savings on Sharp MX-M904 toner will make it affordable over the long run.
