Duplex Printers

Most Sharp duplex-capable color MFPs let you select double-sided (duplex) printing directly from the print driver settings or the device's control panel. Simply choose the '2-sided' or 'duplex' option before sending your print job, and the printer automatically flips each sheet to print on both sides using its built-in duplexing unit.

Sharp duplex color multifunction printers range from 25 to 70 pages per minute depending on the model, allowing businesses to select equipment matched to their document volume.
