Sharp MX-M450N Toner Cartridges

Sharp MX-M450N Printer Review

Most buyers will look closely at the printing capabilities of the Sharp MX-M450N multifunction laser printer, such as print speeds of up to 45 pages per minute. What they might miss are its excellent scanning and document sharing features, however, and even more importantly, the low cost of Sharp MX-M450N printer toner supplies.

The base model, referred to as the MX-M450 or MX-M450U, includes basic printing, copying, and scanning, but the MX-M450N is a significant upgrade, with better network printing options, including monitoring of paper and Sharp MX-M450N toner levels right from a user's computer. It also has expanded network scanning features, with the ability to share files via email directly. The 50-sheet automatic document feeder can scan large stacks quickly, at a rate of around 45 pages per minute, even for duplex documents.

A 500-sheet main paper tray is included as a standard feature, and it can support up to legal media sizes. Additional options and upgrades include a 2,500-sheet paper deck and a 500-sheet multipurpose drawer for future expansion, allowing it to take on even larger workloads easily. Other upgrade options include a two-tray or a saddle-stitch finisher.

When replacement toners are needed, users will find prices for Sharp MX-M450N toner cartridges quite affordable. Users can monitor the level of Sharp MX-M450N toner cartridges directly on the 8.9-inch touchscreen display, from the software on their networked computer, or even from an embedded web server that offers the ability to log in from any web browser.

With great functionality right out of the box, the Sharp MX-M450N is an excellent choice for a medium-sized office. With versatile expansion options available, it can even be a solid solution for larger offices as well, with low-cost supplies to help reduce spending.
