Product Description

With its powerful processor, 44 pages-per-minute* output, enhanced security and built-in durability, the MS521dn supports the success of mid-size workgroups in all their mono printing.

Energy efficiency

Make every watt count with energy management features that reduce power consumption, whether the printer is active or in sleep mode. Lower fusing temperature and automatic management of processor cores based on workload help to meet rigorous ENERGY STAR 2.0 requirements. That benefits the planet and your budget.


The definition of clear text

Some laser printers struggle to print grey text that’s easy to read - not the MS520 series. Its innovative font outlining technology makes even the smallest grey text crisp and clear.


Versatile media handling

Print what you want, in the size that you want. The standard media tray adjusts to paper sizes from A6 to legal, whilst the 100-sheet multipurpose feeder accepts smaller media and envelopes to give you even more design and output possibilities.
