Commercial Copier Costs

About Commercial Copy Machines and How Much They Cost:

Background:
A copy machine makes copies of an original document via one of two methods: digital scanning or analog photography.
The primary difference between a home copy machine and a business copy machine is printing volume, typically measured as maximum pages per month. Commercial copy machines range from 8,000 copies per month on the low end to 40,000+ on the high end. A good home copy machine might cost $120.00 or more; commercial copy machines easily reach prices of $3,000 to $35,000 depending on brand, options, and features. Many businesses choose to rent or lease their copier machine, typically for periods of between three and five years. However, we are seeing a trend of customers wanting shorter lease terms. Rental and lease rates are set based on your expected copying needs, so be sure to determine your current workload before you sign a deal.

What to Look For In an Office Copy Machine:
Ease of use and security are the major differences between digital and analog commercial copy machines. Digital machines allow for “One Scan to Many Copies”—scan once and you can make many copies, even much later, without needing the original document. Analog copy machines require the original document to be present every time a copy is made. Because of their archival nature, though, digital machines can be vulnerable to information theft. Multifunctional copy machines can spare office space and expense, functioning as fax machines, printers, and more, however their complexity should also be considered. Also decide if you need color or black & white (color is more expensive) and whether you want a WiFi-ready machine.

More Buying Tips and Information: Start with the basics such as understanding your day to day needs like scanning, faxing, and will you need a color copier or just black and white copies. Consider what type of connections you will require such as USB, Ethernet, or a wireless connection. Depending on how large your print jobs are you may need a high speed copier that produces 44 pages per minutes, or for smaller offices maybe 10-20 PPM will suffice. Lastly consider how deep the print quality will need to be, such as for reproducing images and photos where as you may require a print resolution between 600 DPI and 1200 DPI.

Xerox C60 Scanning Multiple TIFF Pages to Single File

Recently, one of our customers had an issue when scanning in TIFF files to their server. We were able to resolve the issue with the below scenario.

The Problem:
Customer scanning in TIFF files to server. If the customer scans in a document that has 15 pages, each page is being saved individually. On the Xerox C60, under the scan format settings, the box is unchecked to save each page individually.

The Solution:
Turns out the TIFF file format needed to changed from TIFF V6 to TTN2. These are the steps it took in order for multipage scans to scan as a single, multipage file:
1. Log in as admin on printer
2. Press ‘Machine Status’
3. Go to Tools -> Scan Service Settings under Group -> Other Settings under Features
4. Highlight ‘TIFF Format’ and tap on ‘Change Settings’
5. Tap on ‘TTN2’ and Save

Incompatible Toner Message on Xerox Copiers

Are you seeing the Incompatible Toner Message on your Xerox?

Don’t stress. This message on a Xerox happens. I am going to break this down in two sections for you, one if you have a supplies contact and the other if you don’t.

I have a supplies contact

The Xerox Copier/Printer is telling me my supplies aren’t compatible. This can be fixed. Here’s how: – Check to make sure these supplies came from your Xerox supply contract provider and not a 3rd party – like Amazon or Staples. * If they did not come from your service provider, then this is where your problem is. – Now that we have confirmed that these are from your service provider, there should be a software running someone in your environment on either a PC or Windows Server. – Check to make sure this Xerox Device Agent software is up and running. * If you can’t find this software or can’t find it running – contact your Xerox Service Provider. – If the software is running, make sure that it can see your Xerox Copier / Printer – Turn the Xerox completely off, use both power buttons (2nd one is located inside the door where the toners are located) – Wait 5 minutes after complete power off – Turn Xerox back on – Go to computer in which the Xerox Device Agent Software is installed and press the “Synchronize Now” button located on the left hand side – After Successful Synchronization, software should show the unit in question with a green check mark – The Xerox Copier should now display properly and all functions should return to normal. – If not, you will probably need to delete the printers from the software and re-add them and synchronize again. *This typically has to happen when the devices MAC address is changed after a device relocation.

I don't have a supply contracts

I bought my supplies from Amazon / Staples, why is it telling me? – Well you see, that’s an easy answer. This means one of two things – 1. – Your supplies are metered supplies or 2. – Your Xerox is in metered mode. To Fix your metered supplies – Send them back. That’s really the only option. To Fix your metered Xerox – Call whoever you bought the machine from and tell them you need the Xerox to be in Standard Supply mode. This will usually result in a service technician to come onsite and switch the mode for you.
