Photocopier Selection

Photocopying and printing (Digital Output) have benefitted greatly from technological advancements.

Digital output can now be generated using the same network connected equipment. The question is, which equipment to choose?

The greatest impact on output costs are now attributed to;

• Laser printers speed and costs per page are now equivalent to traditional copiers but cost tens of thousands of dollars less to purchase.

• Multifunctional (MFP) output devices (from printer manufacturers) copy, print, scan and fax at a fraction of the cost of the traditional photocopiers (from copier manufacturers) or even their own MFPs.

Attribute	Previous Photocopiers	Current Multifunctional Devices	Previous Laser printers	Current Laser Printers
Equipment Cost	$15,000-$65,000	$3000-$12000	$2000-$5000	$970-$2500
Cost per page	1 cent	1.1 cent	2 cents	1.1 cent
Finishing Options	Full Range	Full range	Limited	Full range
Speed	20-60 ppm	20-50 ppm	8-24 ppm	20-55 ppm

Today, offices divide, conquer and save.  High speed laser printers and/or multifunctional devices are deployed where the workgroups are.

 Savings are a result of eliminating:

• The large cost of the photocopier 
• Employee time wasted going to a centralized photocopier room
• The cost of space allocated to the photocopier room
• The duplicated costs of printing, then copying

The new reality is that the printer manufacturers have the best cost model to produce digital output .
