Sharp BP-70M45

45ppm mono, same platform, lower running costs

Lease from £35/month

Product image coming soon

Not every office needs colour. The BP-70M45 is the mono version of the BP-70 platform. Same 10.1-inch touchscreen, same Teams integration, same security features, just without colour toner. 45 pages per minute, and running costs are significantly lower than the colour models. If 90% of your printing is black and white, spending money on a colour machine doesn't make sense.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in a Sharp lease from Bowden Digitec?

The machine on a fixed monthly rental, plus a managed print agreement that covers toner, all servicing, engineer callouts and parts. We use our own manufacturer-trained engineers, not subcontractors.

Does the Sharp BP-70 range support Microsoft Teams?

Yes. Every BP-70 model has built-in Microsoft Teams integration. You can scan directly to Teams channels from the touchscreen. No extra software needed.

How does Sharp's print quality compare to inkjet?

Sharp laser produces excellent glossy colour output. For property brochures, marketing materials and anything client-facing on glossy stock, laser still has the edge. For plain paper office documents, both are excellent.

What happens at the end of the lease?

We contact you before it expires. Upgrade, extend or return. No auto-renewal clauses, no end-of-lease surprises. We put all costs in writing before you sign.
