The decision on buying or leasing quality copiers that meet your offices’ needs is a crucial one, but it’s easy to be deceived by new models and the assumption that more expensive equals better…
To help you steer you through the somewat confusing world of copiers, here are some key considerations from our team at North West Digital:
Volume
How much the copier will be used? Sit down and work out the number of pages per month you’ll be producing and what the copier will be mostly used for. This will help decide whether you’ll need a black and white or full colour copier, capacity of it’s paper tray and how large the copier will be. A member of the North West Digitial team can ensure you get the right machine for your needs.
Scanning
A copier connected to a second device or an office network is preferred for a scanner since the printer can send the scan to your PC. It’s a useful feature for those in busy offices. If you need to scan on a regular basis, check that scanning is built in to the machine you are interested in. We at North West Digital can advise you on this.
Speed
Speed identifies how many copies can be copied in one session. Think about how much the machine is in use each day, whether people often have to use the copier and if a lot of large documents will be printed. When purchasing a copier, knowing the copy speed is vital to make sure that the machine you choose will be sufficient for your environment and won’t slow you down. One of our trained experts at North West Digital will talk you through the various speed options that suit your business.
Additional Features and Advantages
There’re many features that come bundled with copiers that aren’t necessary, but make the unit seem better qualityand maybe justify a larger investment. Check the full spec of the machine you are interested in and what the various functions do and if you will actually use them! North West Digital can of course take you through all of these and ensure you get the right machine.
