Sharp,
a leading provider of business technology products and services, has announced
the launch of four new A4 models.
Two monochrome MFPs, and two colour MFPs to
provide businesses with a seamless and secure printing solution. The new
models, BPB537WR, BPB547WD, BPC533WR and BPC533WD feature effortless
connectivity and state-of-the-art security without compromising commitment to
sustainability.
The next generation A4 MFPs bring the power of
Sharp’s award-winning A3 range to its A4 models, further extending Sharp’s
eco-system of smart office devices and services to meet the needs of any
business.
Prioritising connectivity and
productivity
Today’s workforces span across offices, homes,
and remote locations – so Sharp's latest print devices offer cloud-based
functionalities to empower teams to collaborate effortlessly from anywhere. The
new models feature a Microsoft Teams connector, allowing employees to print
from and scan documents to their Teams channels and folders. Wireless LAN
connectivity guarantees secure wireless usage, while mobile connectivity
features allow employees to manage printing tasks from their smartphones.
In busy office environments, productivity is key.
Sharp’s new A4 MFP models provide efficient document management capabilities to
meet the demands of workplaces of all sizes. The new models feature print
speeds of up to 47ppm, as well as industry-leading scanning speeds of up to
130opm.
Robust security to protect users,
devices and data
The new models include enhanced security features
to protect each device – as well as the data they store and share. Integration
with broader security strategies and optional Bitdefender anti-malware support
makes it easier for teams to keep data, devices, and networks secure. Remote
firmware management gives users peace of mind that their devices are
automatically updated with the latest firmware, rather than relying on a
service representative to install it.
Smart functionality and design
Sharp’s new MFPs include a stylish and modern
look with a new user-friendly interface. The customisable full flat 7-inch tilt able LCD touchscreen control panel offers a consistent user interface
common across Sharp’s print range, enhancing the user experience and enabling
those already familiar with Sharp devices to use right away. Designed to be
future proof, the Application Portal provides software updates and cloud
connector apps to ensure users’ MFPs are always up-to-date.
Supporting environmental goals
With sustainability a key priority for many
businesses, Sharp's new MFPs incorporate features aligned with these goals. The
new products have reduced energy consumption levels compared to previous
models; up to 19% reduction in ready mode and 57% in sleep mode.
Christian Wych, Product Manager at Sharp NZ,
said: "As the number of employees engaged in
hybrid working has increased over recent years, so too has the need to
streamline office equipment. More than ever before, businesses are looking to
maximise the value of their print fleet, and better utilise the reduced office
spaces that their staff require. Providing high class features in a convenient
size is where Sharp’s new A4 MFP range shines. In line with our current range
of A3 MFPs, our new A4 devices provide the same connectivity, intuitive
functionality and best in class security features, all wrapped up in a compact
size fit for today’s office environment.”
