NEW – Meet the Evolution of Sharps Multifunction Printers

The evolution of Sharp multifunction printing. Built with AI-powered scanning, state-of-the-art multi-layered security, sustainable materials, and Sharp’s human-centric design principles, the new BP Advanced & Essentials Series document systems replaces the previous BP models — bringing the future of office printing to today’s workplace.

What’s new in our line of Workgroup Document Systems

The all new Sharp Advanced & Essentials Series document systems are more than an update — it’s a re-engineered platform designed for smarter workflows, stronger protection, and a lighter environmental footprint.

Smarter Workflows

AI-assisted scanning with auto skew correction, resolution setting, compression, and size detection.

Multi-Layered Security

BIOS startup integrity with self-recovery, Microsoft Entra ID authentication, TPM 2.0 encryption, optional Bitdefender® antivirus, and intrusion detection.

Sustainability by Design

Up to 50% recycled plastics, industry-low TEC values, and a balanced power-save mode.

Human-Centric Usability

Easy to use touchscreen, walk-up motion sensor, original position indicators, reminder alerts, and soft-close drawers.

 

Enhanced Features. New Naming. Still Always Sharp

The BP Advanced & Essentials Series 2 builds on the proven performance of the BP50 and BP70 families. With enhanced features, AI-powered workflows, and a streamlined naming convention, it represents the next stage in the evolution of Sharp multifunction printers.

For organizations already running earlier BP models, Series 2 integrates seamlessly into existing fleets. Built on a common engine platform, it shares options, parts, supplies, and maintenance items with its predecessors. That means easier service, simplified inventory, and consistent toner use across models. This gives IT teams and dealers confidence to expand or refresh fleets without disruption.

Series 2 introduces AI-assisted scanning, stronger security, sustainability improvements, and updated usability features, all while maintaining Sharp’s trusted performance.

Not at this time. This launch applies to the Essentials and Advanced Series only. Pro Series and Desktop models remain unchanged. Check back for future updates.

Yes. The BP51 and BP71 models are built on the same engine platform as the previous BP50 and BP70 families. They share many options, parts, supplies, and maintenance items, making it easy to expand or refresh your fleet without disruption.

No. Because Series 2 uses common components and supplies with the previous generation, service teams and dealers can rely on familiar parts, toners, and maintenance kits. This continuity reduces complexity, lowers inventory costs, and keeps fleets easier to manage.
