Mrk 335 is a NLSY1 well known for its rapid and erratic variability on time scales as short as a couple hours. We present the BeppoSAX data for this source. The BeppoSAX light curves shows that the highest X-ray variability occurs in the soft X-rays (0.1-2 keV). The variability possibly extends, at a lower level, into to the 15-70 keV range. Spectral analysis shows that, contrary to previous studies of Mrk 335, the data can be very well fit without a soft excess. Our best fit combines a power-law, a warm absorber and a small amount of neutral reflection. Remarkably, Mrk 335 seems to stand out among other NLSY1s by having an unusually strong and highly ionized warm absorber. .
