Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Sharp BP-50C65 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 run a high-volume department or in-house print cell of 60-120 people printing 18,000-35,000 pages a month with heavy A3 color.
  • You need 65 ppm in both black and color — the top of the BP-50 Essentials family.
  • You want first copy out under 4 seconds B/W and steady throughput on long jobs.
  • You need 6,300-sheet max capacity and split tandem drawers to avoid paper-out interruptions.
  • You're standardized on Sharp Cloud Connect (Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint, Box, Dropbox, Google Drive) and want one more A3 unit that drops into the toolchain.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 35,000-45,000 pages a month — engine handles it, plan toner cadence and supplies budget accordingly.
  • You want PostScript 3, fax, Wi-Fi — all optional kits (MX-PK13L, BP-FX11, BP-EB10).
  • You want a 65-sheet 3K-stack staple/saddle finisher — BP-FN15/FN16 fits this model.
  • You want hole punch — MX-PN16B punch unit attaches to the BP-FN15/16 finisher.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 12,000 pages a month — overbought. Drop to the BP-50C45 or 50C55.
  • You print over 50,000 pages a month — look at the BP-70C65 Advanced series or true production hardware.
  • You need single-pass duplex scanning at 240 ipm — RSPF here is reversing, max 80 ipm.
  • You need 1200 x 1200 dpi color resolution — caps at 600 x 600 color (1200 mono).
  • You only print mono at this volume — buy the BP-50M65 and skip color toner. Same chassis, lower per-page cost.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Sharp BP-50C65 is the top of the BP-50 Essentials A3 color family — 65 pages per minute in both black and color, same chassis and feature set as the rest of the BP-50 line. Print resolution is 1200 x 1200 dpi mono / 600 x 600 dpi color, first copy out 3.7 seconds B/W and 4.8 seconds color from the platen. Standard paper capacity is 650 sheets across one 550-sheet drawer plus a 100-sheet bypass, expandable to 6,300 sheets with split tandem drawers and the BP-LC10 large capacity cassette. The 100-sheet RSPF scans at 80 ipm with original size detection. The 10.1-inch tilting touchscreen handles direct print from Office files, scan-to-cloud (OneDrive, Teams, SharePoint, Box, Dropbox, Google Drive), and Synappx Go mobile workflows. Finishing options on this 65-ppm model include the BP-FN12 50-sheet inner finisher and the BP-FN15/16 65-sheet 3K-stack staple/saddle finishers, plus the BP-FD10 inner folding unit. The thing buyers regret: fax, PostScript 3, Wi-Fi, OCR, and Compact PDF are all option kits — read the configuration sheet before ordering. Best fit: a high-volume department of 60-120 printing 18,000-35,000 pages a month with heavy A3 color demand.

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.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 6 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging Sharp machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • ★ "This printer is a game-changer for our office. The 65 ppm speed keeps us moving fast, and being able to swap toner mid-job without stopping is incredibly convenient."
  • ★ "Great speed and the no-pause toner replacement feature works as advertised. Color output is solid, though I wish the setup had been a bit more straightforward."
  • ★ "Fantastic machine for high-volume printing. The seamless toner replacement during jobs saves us so much downtime, and the color and B&W speeds are impressive."
  • ★ "Does the job, but it's pricey. The speed is good, though I haven't noticed the real-world difference the no-pause feature makes in our small office."
  • ★ "Excellent workhorse for our print shop. The 65 ppm handles our volume beautifully, and swapping supplies without stopping the job is exactly what we needed."
  • ★ "Reliable and quick for both color and black-and-white jobs. The continuous operation capability is nice, though I wish the learning curve was shorter."

FAQ

Sharp BP-50C65, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (888) 574-5120 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Sharp BP-50C65 ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter toner yields approximately 40,000 pages for black and 24,000 pages for cyan, magenta, and yellow. Replacement toner models include the Sharp BP-NT70 series (BP-NT70BA for black, BP-NT70CA/MA/YA for color), with the same high yields. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Sharp BP-50C65 prints at 65 ppm in both black and color, while the BP-70C31 prints at 31 ppm. The BP-50C65 is designed for high-volume departments (18,000–35,000 pages/month), whereas the BP-70C31 suits smaller workgroups (10–30 people). The BP-70C31 includes standard PostScript 3, Wi-Fi, and stronger security (WPA3, TLS 1.3), while these are optional on the BP-50C65. For small offices needing security and wireless out of the box, the BP-70C31 is a better value.
The Sharp BP-50C65 is ideal for high-volume small businesses printing 18,000–35,000 pages monthly, with its 65 ppm speed and A3 color capabilities. However, its optional features (fax, Wi-Fi, PostScript) may require additional investment. For businesses with lower volume or simpler needs, consider leasing a more compact model.
Yes, the Sharp BP-50C65 is a color printer, supporting both black and color printing at 65 ppm. It uses the BP-NT70 series toner cartridges for vibrant color output. If you need monochrome alternatives, consider the Sharp BP-70M31 or similar models.
