Pricing & Leasing

If you need help deciding between Xerox or HP for a business printer, this blog post is for you. Mainly, if you’re interested in a multifunction color printer, the Xerox VersaLink C415 and the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301 are two great options. However, with so many technical specifications, it can take time to determine which printer to choose. Plus, printers can be quite expensive, so finding a reliable and cost-effective option is essential.

Fortunately, at STPT, we have over 40 years of experience reading printer manuals, analyzing specifications, and seeing printers in action. We are well-versed in Xerox and HP printers and are here to help you make an informed decision. Even though we do sell both brands, we strive to be as unbiased as possible.

​The Amazon company is the powerhouse online shopping center we have all grown accustomed to. It has substantial merit behind it and sales numbers that are astronomical. From its inception as just an online bookstore, to the premier shopping outlet for quick, easy, and almost limitless creativity on options, it's a no-brainer why it's so popular.

However, we always mention here at Strategic Technology Partners of Texas (STPT) that we have over 35 years of experience as a printer vendor, and our partnership with Xerox always gives us opportunities to learn more about products and inform you in ways you can’t get from other websites.

The Covid-19 pandemic significantly impacted lead times around the world, and according to a recent survey, 57% of companies reported that the pandemic caused serious disruptions to their supply chains. 

As the pandemic ends and life returns to normal, global supply chains continue to reflect many of the shipping and stock issues that began at the height of the pandemic in 2020. 

Although supply chains continue to show improvement, deliveries still may be slow to arrive post pandemic. This can be a major issue for companies and small businesses that need to keep print production fast paced to turn a profit.

We want to make sure you have all the information you need to understand supply chain management and lead time so that you can take the right steps to receive important orders at the right time.

Printer pooling is when multiple printers are linked to share the number of print impressions included in your service contract.

Pooling printers can be beneficial if your company uses many printers because it allows you to consolidate the number of prints included for a billing period into one amount. 

If you own a Xerox printer, then pooling is a valuable option offered that can help prevent overage charges. As a Xerox Platinum Solutions Partner, our goal at STPT is to help you take advantage of billing options like pooling. 

Pooling makes printing easier so that users don’t have to worry about where they can print important documents, and it can significantly decrease the amount of billing paperwork for your company.  

If you’re experiencing issues with your printer/copier, or are looking for a new one, you might feel overwhelmed by the choices and price differences out there. 

Conducting any kind of research process for a new printer will result in a lot of options at price ranges from under $100-to-$100,000.   

The simplest choice is to head to your nearest retail store, be it Staples, Office Depot or Walmart, and pick up a new printer on the cheap.
