HP was recently recognized with multiple prestigious awards from Buyers Lab (BLI), the leading independent evaluator of document imaging solutions.

HP has won one of BLI’s most coveted awards, the 2020 Printer/MFP Line of the Year Award. This annual award recognizes the manufacturer whose product line is determined to be the best overall, based on their rigorous laboratory evaluations. HP was also awarded 2020 Pick Awards on four models.

 

BLI’s Line of the Year Awards recognize manufacturers of hardware or software whose products perform above average throughout their in-depth evaluation. Their analysts and technicians consider a variety of factors across an entire portfolio in determining the Line of the Year winner including; features, value, ease-of-use, and reliability. This marks the eighth time in the last decade that HP has secured a Line of the Year award.

 

“HP is the winner of our Printer/MFP Line of the Year award thanks to its collection of outstanding models that span an impressive range of categories, from low- to high-volume, both laser and inkjet,” said Kaitlin Shaw, Keypoint Intelligence’s Senior Editor of Printer/MFP Analysis. “In addition to class-leading reliability, HP MFPs and printers offer impressive user-friendliness, high-quality output, cutting-edge security features, and very good to excellent value propositions. HP’s OXP architecture, which is available on its mid to high-volume offerings, makes devices more than just output machines, allowing them to integrate with numerous software solutions that can streamline workflows, boost productivity, and reduce costs. The consistent strength and breadth of HP’s portfolio make it stand out above the rest.”

 

In addition to the Line of the Year award, four HP models were recognized with 2020 Printer/MFP Pick Awards. These awards recognize specific models that gave the best performances in Buyers Lab’s extensive lab tests. BLI identified these four models for their outstanding performance:

 

HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M751 Series

HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M479 Series
Outstanding Color MFP for Small Workgroups

[cz_image id=”cz_107044″ image=”12804″][/cz_image][cz_gap height=”25px”][cz_title id=”cz_41531″ cz_title=””]Sharp was recently honored by Buyers Lab (BLI) with 2020 Pick Awards for 14 of their copier models. BLI is the leading independent authority for testing in the document imaging industry. BLI awards are highly prized by manufacturers of document imaging solutions. The BLI lab picks are hard to earn because they involve rigorous, independent lab tests. Testing includes assessments of durability, usability, image quality, value, and other factors. Only the best, most reliable solutions will qualify.

 

George Mikolay, Keypoint Intelligence’s Associate Director of Copier MFP/Production analysis said, “We ran over one million impressions on Sharp copier MFPs this season, to exceptional overall results. As a whole, productivity results were better than other competitors. Short- and long-run jobs for printing, scanning, and copying were completed in a timely manner to allow users to remain effective and efficient. Above average memory for faster processing of jobs is another nicety, as is above average paper weight support for media flexibility. Strong reliability and above average maximum paper capacities mean less downtime for users to clear misfeeds or refill paper drawers. IT administrators will love the web user interface’s intuitiveness and search and shortcut functionality. And Sharp’s ‘know one, know all’ approach means users of the drivers and control panel will enjoy the same very good overall usability regardless of which machine is close to their particular workspace.”

 

Sharp’s ‘know one, know all,’ or Common User Interface, makes them perfect for organizations that require multiple copiers throughout their large workgroups. This means that someone from a different floor or another department can use Sharp’s Common User Interface to scan, copy, or print to whatever device they may need to, thus maximizing an organizations efficiency and overall employee satisfaction.

 

The 14 Sharp Copier Models Included in the 2020 Pick Awards were:

 

Sharp MX-2651
Outstanding 26-ppm Color Copier MFP

 

Sharp MX-3071
Outstanding 30-ppm Color Copier MFP

 

Sharp MX-3571
Outstanding 35-ppm Color Copier MFP

 

Sharp MX-4071
Outstanding 40-ppm Color Copier MFP

 

Sharp MX-5071
Outstanding 50-ppm Color Copier MFP

 

Sharp MX-6071
Outstanding 60-ppm Color Copier MFP

 

Sharp MX-M2651
Outstanding 26-ppm Monochrome Copier MFP

 

Sharp MX-M3051

As such, Buyers Lab’s exhaustive durability testing offers a key benchmark for buyers when making a document imaging equipment purchase decision. To determine the vendors whose product lines stand out above the rest, our highly experienced analyst team has compiled and reviewed performance statistics for every major OEM that submitted devices for laboratory testing from 2012 to 2018.

 

HP has long been known as an industry leader, time and again exceeding our expectations in hands-on evaluations. Therefore, it’s not surprising that, after reviewing the performance of all color and monochrome printers and MFPs tested by Buyers Lab, HP Inc. emerged as the one clear winner of this most prestigious honor.

 

“Reliability matters to business users; it means they can spend less time worrying about the printer and more time being productive,” explained Marlene Orr, Director of Printer & MFP Analysis for Keypoint Intelligence – Buyers Lab. “When it comes to reliability, no other brand we’ve tested even comes close to HP’s performance in our lab. We’ve tested a broad range of HP’s business-class printers and MFPs over the years and nearly every one of them completed testing without a single paper jam. From businessclass inkjets to enterprise-class laser devices, the HP models tested stood head and shoulders above the rest, completing about 3.9 million pages with no failures or service interruptions, making it the clear winner as Most Reliable Business Printer & MFP Brand.” Congratulations to HP on being named Buyers Lab’s Most Reliable Business Printer & MFP Brand![/cz_title]

[cz_image id=”cz_19374″ image=”12250″][/cz_image][cz_gap height=”25px”][cz_title id=”cz_12054″ cz_title=””]Sharp Imaging and Information Company’s new line of MFPs (Color Advanced and Color Essentials) was recently recognized for outstanding quality, reliability, and ease of use by Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI), the leading independent evaluator of business solutions.

 

The two most recent lines of Sharp Multi-function Color Copiers, the Color Advanced (advanced, fully featured color copier) and Essentials Series copiers (more basic features come standard) have made a major impression on dealers and customers alike since their launch. In December 2015, the first six models were unveiled at a National Sharp Dealer Meeting in San Antonio, sparking excitement from dealers for their single-engine platform, easy-to-use common interface, and common toner supplies across the line. The release of four additional models followed closely, and available output speeds for the series now range from 30-60 pages per minute.

 

Now Sharp has earned 10 Highly Recommended ratings from Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI). A “Highly Recommended” rating is the highest mark a product can receive from BLI, and one of the most prestigious industry recommendations. Sharp received this rating for all 10 of its Advanced and Essentials color workgroup copiers. George Mikolay, BLI’s Senior Editor for A3 MFPs said of the recommendation, “Sharp’s new Color Advanced and Essentials Series easily earned BLI’s Highly Recommended rating, proving highly reliable throughout our rigorous testing.”

 

Sharp designed their Color Advanced Series and color Essentials Series copiers with end users in mind, enabling them to easily improve workflow with features like an intuitive touchscreen display with quick-access functions, integrated mobile print technologies, and Sharp’s advanced security features.

 

“Sharp is proud to receive the Highly Recommended rating from BLI for outstanding MFP performance of our new A3 line,” said Shane Coffey, Associate Vice President, Hardware Product Management, Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America. “We are constantly striving to enhance our R&D to provide customers with industry leading productivity and reliability. This recognition from BLI re-affirms our commitment to that goal.”

 

Sharp’s Advanced Series includes the MX-3070N/3570N/4070N/5070N/6070N document systems, and their Essentials Series includes the MX-3050N/3550N/4050N/5050N/6050N document systems.

BLI, also known as Buyer’s Laboratory, is the world’s leading independent evaluator of document imaging products and solutions. Recently, Sharp received 6 top accolades across the multi-function printer (MFP) product spectrum, including their flagship Pro Series, for superior quality and high reliability in their respective categories.

 

BLI’s semi-annual awards are given to the hardware and software offerings which they judge as demonstrating the most important performance factors for buyers. With its Pick awards, BLI gives special recognition to those products with the most outstanding performance across its exhaustive lab tests. The Outstanding Achievement awards acknowledge products or capabilities that exhibit attributes such as innovation, usefulness, energy efficiency, reliability and value.

 

“Sharp’s A3 Pick winners prove that there doesn’t have to be a cost trade-off for high performance,” said George Mikolay, BLI’s Senior Product Editor for A3 copiers/MFPs. “These Pick-winning models are among the lowest cost of their peers, and exhibit excellent reliability over the course of nearly 1 million combined impressions. Add in innovative features which include tandem printing, a retractable keyboard, and Sharp Cloud Portal Office integration. The Sharp Pro Series features the integration of the EFI Fiery Command WorkStation into the control panel with full-bleed booklet printing. These awards prove that Sharp offers an unbeatable overall value that’s hard to beat, no matter the model series.

 

Outstanding 61 to 70ppm A3 Color MFP and Outstanding 71 to 80ppm A3 Color MFP – Sharp MX-6500N & MX-7500N Pro Series

Equipped with the advanced Fiery Server Controller, the Sharp MX-6500N and Sharp MX-7500Nmodels won the Pick for the “Outstanding 61 to 70ppm A3 Color MFP” and “Outstanding 71 to 80ppm A3 Color MFP” categories, respectively. Ideal for demanding print environments, the Pro Series models were noted for their competitive price, high reliability and excellent feature set – including the optional air-feed system and industry-first integration of EFI’s Command WorkStation into its touchscreen display.
