Pricing & Leasing

You would be surprised at how much owning a printer/copier could cost you. 

It’s not just for the machine itself, or the supplies that it takes to run efficiently. Buried beneath the surface are obscure, seemingly minuscule, costs that may catch you off guard if you’re not aware of them. 

Being in the printer industry for over 35 years has taught us a lot of things, but maybe the most noteworthy of them all is how much printing costs can accrue on a company’s annual budget. 

Many consumers in the market for new office equipment don’t realize the expense of buying a printer for their workplace.   

But once you get into the advanced multifunction (print, copy, scan and fax) and production printer categories, the price can range from $15,000-to-$100,000 and beyond.   

Of course, not everybody needs a robust printing solution, but even a basic multifunction office printer can cost you upwards of $1,000.  

Price fluctuation occurs in almost every industry, and printers are no different.  

Whether you buy directly from a printer manufacturer or through a vendor, the price of machines can change at any given time.    

This is especially true under today’s current circumstances, where supply chains are still disrupted, and inflation is readily apparent across most sectors of society.   

If you type in “managed print service cost” into your search engine, what do you see?    

Well, if you want the short answer, not a lot in terms of definitive numbers around what a managed print service (MPS) costs.  

Indeed, the cost of MPS depends on a wide variety of factors, and depending on which managed print provider you choose, the price range can fluctuate dramatically.     

You’ve come to the end of your printer/copier lease and decided to upgrade your equipment, signaling the start of a new lease agreement.   

Because you’re working with the same vendor, you assume the previous billing process will remain the same.    

When the first invoice comes in for the monthly lease payment, you pay it the same as always, foregoing attention to the minute details of the invoice.
