Pricing & Leasing

There are not many things more important to owning a printer/copier than having a solution for printer service. 

Why? Because obtaining service for your printer when you desperately need it can be costly and hard to come by. 

Believe it or not, printers are not so different from the car you drive every day. They are complex machines, especially at the advanced level, that require proper care and maintenance.  

If you use your printer frequently, service issues—especially as your machine ages--- will occur. That’s why it’s crucial to have a solution for service in place before an issue arises. 

Did you know that some printers/copiers can range from $1,000-$100,000? 

That makes it all the more significant that you get the right office machine in place for your company the first time around. Because wasting money on an insufficient machine can be significantly costly and frustrating.  

The number one thing you can do to make sure you get the right printer in place for your company is to educate yourself on all you need to consider before purchasing a new machine. 

We’ve accumulated a vast amount of knowledge during our almost 40 years in the printer/copier industry, and thus, have become intimately familiar with all that goes into finding the perfect printer. 

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.  

There are many things to consider when purchasing a printer.  

Some are obvious, like print volume and cost, and some are more inconspicuous, like space and electrical requirements, which is what we will be covering today.    

As a long-time local print vendor, we’ve seen numerous cases of customers that purchased a printer and thought they had everything in order, only to realize on delivery day that the machine they bought doesn’t fit in their office or doesn’t have the correct electrical outlet.    

There are a few notable documents that come with the purchase of a printer, and one of those will extensively lay out everything you need to know about your machine. 

It’s called the Customer Expectation and Installation Guide, and it is a crucial document to look over before delivery and installation day.     

What is the CEIG? Why is it important? Do I need to sign and send it back? 

These questions will be addressed in this blog, so you’re better informed on what role the CEIG plays in the pre-delivery process.
