With companies printing an average of 10,000 copies per year, you need a multi-function printer (MFP) that is easy to use and won’t give out on you. If your MFP is currently causing headaches or wasting time because of breakdowns or difficulty of use, it may be time to switch machines. Your current vendor might only sell one brand of copiers/printers, meaning it may be time to switch vendors completely.  

Besides headaches and difficulty of use, you may be overpaying for the service and vendor you are currently using. We’ve provided resources explaining the reasons why you may want to get out of your current copier lease here. This article will talk about the details regarding how switching vendors may save you money in the long run.  

Leasing a copier is the best thing you could do for your business. Trying to make a desktop printer work for several employees, who are printing hundreds of papers per week, is ultimately going to cost more money than if you were to invest in a copier that fits your printing needs.  

Buying a printer outright can be expensive just to give out in a couple of years. Leasing ensures you will always have a working copier and access to local technicians if the machine needs fixing.  

Many people are not aware or educated on the different types of toners available for copiers/printers and this often leads them to purchase the cheapest toner available. 

Buying the cheapest toner possible often results in problems such as poor print quality or spilled ink. Ink spillage, and other issues caused by cheap toner, can cause damage to the machine, which is a costly repair.  

Cheaper toner often uses banned or hazardous materials such as plastic to cut costs. These toxins can cause problems for the machine and the users.
