Product Overview

Built for the
Upwardly Mobile
Office

The Sharp BP-20M24 is a compact, energy-efficient A3 monochrome MFP engineered for small workgroups that demand reliability without compromise. With its unique cubic frame and the smallest A3 footprint in its class, it fits naturally into any workspace while delivering enterprise-grade performance.

Print and copy at up to 24 pages per minute, with a first copy out time of just 6.4 seconds — minimising delays on short-run jobs. The built-in stackless duplex module handles two-sided copies automatically, while the 100-sheet Reversing Single Pass Feeder (RSPF) scans both mono and colour documents at up to 37 originals per minute.

Security is built in — intrusion detection, access control, data encryption, self-healing firmware, and a program execution whitelist all work together to protect your data and network at every level.

What It Does

Key Features

Productive Operation

Print and copy at 24 ppm with a 6.4-second first copy time. The 100-sheet RSPF scans at 37 opm (one-sided), and the standard paper capacity of 350 sheets expands up to 1,850 sheets to keep pace with any busy office.

📶
Mobile & Wireless Ready

Optional wireless LAN adaptor (MX-EB18) enables printing and scanning from any Wi-Fi device. Supports AirPrint for iOS/macOS and the Sharpdesk Mobile app, letting your team print and scan directly from smartphones and tablets.

🔒
Enhanced Security

Comprehensive protection includes intrusion detection, access control, data encryption, SSL certificate validation, self-healing firmware, and a program execution whitelist. User authentication covers up to 30 users to prevent unauthorised access.

🖥️
Easy-to-Use Control Panel

A 4-inch, 5-line LCD control panel provides intuitive navigation. Red and green LED status lamps let you check machine and job status from across the room. ID Card Copy function copies both sides of a card onto one page at the touch of a button.

📤
Versatile Scanning

Scan to email, desktop, FTP server, network folder (SMB), or USB drive in full colour. Supports TIFF, PDF, and JPEG formats at resolutions up to 600 dpi. Scanner Program Keys store frequently used settings for one-touch recall.

🌱
Energy Efficient

Auto Power Shut-off mode dramatically reduces energy consumption during idle periods. With a maximum power draw of 1.2 kW and a compact footprint, the BP-20M24 is designed to keep both your energy bills and your desk space in check.
