But to jump right to the answer: If you are printing less than 2,000 pages a month…a standard 20-30 page per minute floor standing copier will work fine for you. Average small businesses pay $150-$200/month for a copier and maintenance contract.

Initial Purchase Price
The initial purchase price is the most obvious cost when acquiring a commercial copier. The price of a copier can range from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands, depending on the features, speed, and overall quality of the machine. It is important to research and compare different models to find the one that best fits your needs and budget.

Maintenance and Repair Costs
All copiers require routine maintenance to ensure optimal performance. This may include regular cleaning, replacement of parts, and software updates. It is important to factor in these costs when deciding on a copier, as they can add up over time. In addition, unexpected repairs can also arise, so it’s a good idea to have a budget set aside for these costs.

Operating Costs
Operating costs refer to the expenses associated with running the copier, such as electricity, toner, and paper. These costs can vary depending on the frequency of use and the type of copier. To get a better understanding of these costs, it is recommended to do a cost analysis of similar copiers to get an estimate.

Leasing or Renting Costs
Leasing or renting a commercial copier can be an alternative to purchasing one outright. In this scenario, you pay a monthly fee to use the copier, which typically includes maintenance and repair costs. This option can be more cost-effective for businesses that only need a copier for a short period of time or those that don’t want to make a large upfront investment.

What is included with a Printer-Copier Lease?

Getting to rent a copier or printer is an effective means for businesses (especially small businesses and start-ups) to cut down on the capital. Copier and printer renting is a strategy that has, over time, grown to be cost-effective, but some businesses still do not enjoy the full benefits that come with it.

Aside from the fact that copier leasing is cost-effective, other benefits can be gotten from this, and those other benefits would be discussed in the latter part of this article.

 

Use of Xerox Copier

There are no doubts neither is it arguable that Xerox produces the best copier machines (totally a one sided opinion that we poled one person on), and that their products are of high quality, very efficient, and up to date. So, businesses that rent copier machines can stand a chance of using this top-notch equipment to run their business smoothly.

Using the Xerox copier can give businesses an edge over their competitors, as it can offer functionalities that other copiers don’t have. Also, these functionalities which the Xerox copier machine possess can help business processes get easier, faster, and smoother.

We are also a Xerox dealer that has these copier machines to lease and rent. Contact us for more info – online@usamagnum.com or keep reading for more info.

 

Customer Setup Support

Just like every other machine, copier and printing devices do require setup support, and experts can only provide this support with confidence. When businesses rent a copier or printer machine, they don’t have to worry about getting competent technicians to set up the machines as the leasing company can effectively do this.

Some companies that buy their copier machines get to lose money after they hire unprofessional technicians to set up the machines. Some of these technicians end up leaving damage on the machine which the company would have to cover for.

Renting a copier or printing machine eliminates such a scenario, as the leasing company gets recommend quality technicians to handle the setup process.

 

Active Monitoring

Monitoring copier activities can be possibly done in an active and straightforward manner, especially when rented. Monitoring printing activities can help reduce the cost of printing, as printing equipment can be appropriately managed.

 

Early Upgrade Availability

By renting copier and printer machines, businesses get the benefit of using up-to-date software and devices. Copier leasing companies would always update their machines and make sure that every software is up to date. And by renting a copier machine from them, you stand a chance of using updated machines to run your business.

This benefit cannot be overemphasized.

For businesses that acquire their copier and printing machines, they might not experience these same benefits as the equipment are entirely theirs. The factors mentioned above should be confirmed when trying to lease a copier machine.

We can provide your business with these benefits and even more.
