Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Start by thinking about what you’re printing. If it’s mostly words and not a lot of pictures, a Laser Printer is likely your best match. It’s fast, makes super sharp letters, and is usually cheaper in the long run.
- Next, consider color. Are you printing splashy graphics, photos, or artwork? An Ink Printer might give you the vibrant color you need. But if you just need a bit of color here and there, a Laser Printer can handle that too.
- Then, think about extras. Do you need to scan or make copies? A Multi-Function Printer (MFP) with a document feeder could be a great choice.
- Don’t worry about connectivity – we can find a printer that fits what you need, whether that’s Wi-Fi, network cable, or something else.
- Finally, think about paper size. Most of our printers handle regular business sizes, but if you need to print bigger, like tabloid sizes, we’ve got you covered.
- If you do more than just print, an MFP could be a great choice. It’s like having your own mini-office. It can print, scan, copy, and sometimes even fax. Say goodbye to having different machines for each task. With an MFP, you get all these functions wrapped up in one handy device. It saves you space, and can save you money by not needing to buy separate devices.
- If you need to print large or wide-scale items like banners, posters, or architectural plans, a Large Format (also known as Wide Format) Printer is your go-to choice. These printers are commonly used by businesses like advertising agencies, graphic design studios, architectural firms, and photography studios. They deliver outstanding image quality – perfect for photographs, fine art reproductions, or detailed graphics.
- Consider what size and width of prints you need, as well as the materials you’ll be printing on. Large Format (or Wide Format) Printers can handle a range of materials (including paper, vinyl, cotton fabric, canvas, etc.), and on much larger media sizes than office printers. You’ll also want to consider the image quality you want. Some Large Format Printers also have extra features, like the ability to scan or copy, similar to a Multi-Function Printer.
- When you’re choosing a printer, you’re usually deciding between two types: Inkjet (or Ink) Printers and Laser Printers.
- Inkjet Printers, also known as Ink Printers, use tiny droplets of ink to create images and text. They’re often cheaper to buy and can print really vibrant colors, making them a great choice for photos and images. However, they can be more expensive in the long run because replacing the ink can add up. These printers can sometimes be a little finicky – they might need head cleaning, which uses up ink, or their cartridges can dry out if not used regularly.
- Laser Printers, on the other hand, use a toner cartridge filled with fine powder. They’re often more expensive upfront, but overall, they can be less expensive, especially if you print a lot. They tend to print faster, their text comes out super sharp, and they often have a higher page yield per cartridge, so might require fewer cartridge replacements. This could make them a more environmentally friendly choice in this aspect. However, they can be a bit louder due to their complex internal machinery.
- When estimating the total cost of owning a printer, you should consider more than just the purchase price. There are a few other costs that you’ll want to keep in mind.
- First, think about the cost of supplies. This includes ink or toner cartridges, and also paper. The cost of ink or toner can vary a lot depending on the type of printer, how often you print, and what you print.
- Next, think about the cost of maintenance. Some printers need regular professional servicing, while others can be maintained with simple at-home cleaning and part replacements.
- Finally, energy use can also add to the cost. Printers can vary in how much energy they use, so think about how often you’ll be using the printer and whether you need a printer with energy-saving features.
- If you’re printing a lot of pages regularly, you’ll need a printer that can keep up.
- First, consider the printer’s duty cycle. This is the number of pages that a printer can handle per month without problems. It’s a good indicator of the printer’s durability.
- Next, look at printers with high page yields, meaning they can print more pages before you need to replace the ink or toner.
- Also, consider the speed of the printer. A faster printer can save you a lot of time if you’re printing high volumes.
- Think about paper handling capabilities. Printers with larger paper trays or additional feed options won’t need to be refilled as often. Some can automatically pull paper from another tray when one is empty or can be equipped with extra-large capacity trays.
- Finally, take into account the cost per page. For high-volume printing, you’ll want a printer that is economical with ink or toner to keep your costs down.
- Managed Print Services (MPS) is akin to renting your printing equipment instead of buying it. With MPS, a service provider takes care of all your printing needs – from maintenance and supplies to the recycling of old equipment. This can be a great choice if managing your own printers feels too time-consuming or complex.
- MPS is also worth considering if you have significant printing needs. While there’s no strict minimum, MPS typically makes more sense for businesses with significant printing needs as the cost efficiencies become more apparent at higher volumes. With MPS, you pay for what you print, and the service provider handles the rest, making it a convenient and often cost-effective solution.
