5 Features of a High Quality Printer (2025)

Submitted by Joel Metzler on

A few years ago, our Business Development Manager, Mary Shamburger, attended a convention that showcased copier units from several different brands.

This experience allowed her to see the differences, up close, in the features and designs of each machine, but to her surprise, one machine had a base made of particleboard, an artificial wood made from wood pulp and glue. Since copiers need steel bases to support hardware and protect users from fire, this was a shock. 

The particleboard base was preventing the wheels from supporting the machine, and the wood was disintegrating.

4 Xerox Features That Stand Out Against Other Printer Brands

Submitted by Karla Metzler on

When you think of a copier/printer brand, what’s the first name to come to mind?

Maybe it’s HP or Canon because that’s what you used in school. Maybe it’s even Ricoh because that’s what the first office you worked at used. It’s easy to recall or hear about different brand names, but the stakes are a little higher when choosing one for your office equipment. You don’t want to be left with a faulty machine that breaks easily or can’t keep up with your printing volumes.

There are many manufacturers out there that produce durable and efficient machines, capable of printing, scanning, faxing, and more. In the past 35 years, we here at Strategic Technology Partners of Texas have seen them all, whether it’s from selling or servicing them, and we know the unique benefits and advantages that come with each individual brand.
