Sharp has been inventing one-of-a-kind products and solutions that benefit society and business for more than 100 years. Our creed today is the same as it was then: an ambition for excellence. Our story began with the invention of an ever-sharp mechanical pencil (hence the name ‘Sharp’) and continued with a steady stream of innovative products. We commercialised the first Japanese TVs and radios, for example, and the world’s first LCD calculators. But that was just the start.
In 1972, we unveiled the first Sharp photocopier; the first step on a journey that would see a steady introduction of office printers, document scanning equipment, versatile Multi-Functional Printers (MFPs) and powerful production printers, complemented with a full range of document management and other software solutions.Today, our portfolio of business document solutions ranges from space-saving small office printers and high performance network colour MFPs, right through to some of the most powerful entry-level production printers on the market – all of which can be enhanced with our range of Optimised Software Solutions.
