MX4101N

  With Speed and Quality at the Centre, Efficiency Follows

Sharp’s new MX-4101N is an impressive MFD with its compact frame, polished new design, and original, cutting-edge technologies! Its full-colour MFD puts speedy output, outstanding print quality, and reliable data protection squarely in the centre of efficient document management.

The MX-4101N’s short warm-up time, copy/print speeds of up to 41 pages per minute in both colour and B/W, brilliant colour, and 1,200-dpi printing resolution bring a productivity-boosting edge to busy offices. Its integrated document management system enhances workflow, and Sharp OSA (Open Systems Architecture) 3.0 makes it possible for third-party software developers to create customised applications for office-specific control and convenience.

For peace of mind, the MX-4101N puts Sharp’s powerful, industry-leading security solutions to work in a multi-layered approach that safeguards confidential data against leakage and unauthorised access.

New Design Brings Style and Ease of Use

A new dark-coloured control panel gives the MX-4101N a distinct design advantage and brings polished chic to office settings. This stylish new design does more than just enhance décor; it also makes the MX-4100N a particularly user-friendly solution. The new 8.5-inch, W-VGA, touch-screen LCD control panel gives users a choice of six screen colours and provides thumbnail display and previews of data files as well as previews of copy/send/save jobs, making even the MX-4101N’s most advanced functions easy to navigate.
