Is this the right printer for you?
Who the Sharp MX-5111N is actually for
Most equipment pages just tell you what a device 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
offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.
Best fit
Pick this if...
Pick this if refurb pricing on the 5111N matches what you would pay for a 5110N.
Pick this if you do 6,000 to 15,000 mixed pages a month.
Pick this if 11 x 17 is part of normal work.
Pick this if your dealer carries the toner and parts.
Pick this if scan-to-email covers your scanning needs.

Full specifications
Every spec, no guessing
The Sharp MX-5111N is the small refresh of the MX-5110N — same 51 ppm A3 color engine, minor controller updates, sold mostly refurbished today. Target is small offices and workgroups doing 6,000 to 15,000 mixed pages a month that want A3 color without paying for a new MX-5071. It supports 51 ppm color and B&W, 11 x 17, duplex print and scan, the legacy OSA panel, Gigabit Ethernet, USB, and optional Wi-Fi. The thing buyers regret: the gap between MX-5110N and MX-5111N is small enough that paying extra for the 5111N often does not show up in day-to-day use. Compare side-by-side and buy on price plus parts availability rather than the suffix. As refurbished hardware with a sound service contract, the MX-5111N is a competent A3 color box; for a new buy, look at the MX-5071 for the longer parts runway.
Three ways to get this printer, each priced to match how you actually use it. Most
small offices lease because toner and maintenance are bundled. If you know what you need, buy
outright. If you already own one, just reorder supplies.
Final lease rate depends on term length, credit profile, and bundled supplies. Outright purchase and
supplies pricing varies with bundled warranty, install packages, and order volume. Request a quote for
exact pricing.

FAQ
Sharp MX-5111N, 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 MX-5111N ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter black toner yields approximately 40,000 pages, while the color toners (cyan, magenta, yellow) yield around 18,000 pages each at 5% coverage. Replacement high-yield toners include the MX-51NTBA (black, 40,000 pages) and MX-51NTCA/MA/YA (color, 18,000 pages each). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Sharp MX-5111N is a refurbished A3 color MFP with a 51 ppm print speed, ideal for small offices with 6,000–15,000 monthly pages, while the Sharp BP-70C31 is a newer, floor-standing model with 31 ppm speed, designed for workgroups of 10–30 users. The BP-70C31 offers advanced features like a 10.1" touchscreen, 280 ipm scanning, and stronger security (WPA3, TLS 1.3), making it better for legal or healthcare environments. The MX-5111N is more cost-effective for basic color needs, while the BP-70C31 suits higher-volume, security-focused workflows. For small offices, the MX-5111N provides solid value, but the BP-70C31 is worth the investment for larger teams.
Yes, the Sharp MX-5111N is well-suited for small businesses, handling 6,000–15,000 mixed pages monthly with 51 ppm color printing, duplexing, and 11x17 support. Its refurbished status and lower cost make it a budget-friendly choice for workgroups needing A3 color without high-volume demands. However, if your business expects growth beyond 15,000 pages or needs newer features, consider upgrading to a commercial model like the Sharp BP-70C31.
Yes, the Sharp MX-5111N supports full-color printing at 51 ppm, making it ideal for businesses needing A3 color output. If you require alternatives, consider the Sharp BP-70C31 for higher security and workflow features, or the Sharp MX-5071 for a newer model with a longer parts lifecycle.
