For small companies that are sure to have small budgets, large costs of operations can a really big limiting factor.

Bearing in the mind the size, features and speed that are being given and offered by a particular digital printer, the costs can amount up to the high thousands of dollars. This amount of money can really be daunting for many small establishments. But this will certainly not stop small entrepreneurs to still search and buy one. Moreover, used digital copiers are made available by some sellers at prices that are not only affordable but are hugely discounted as well.

The places where one can buy used digital copiers can be one of the factors that one must be able to familiarize. Looking for one shouldn’t take a whole lot of one person’s time. Several office supplies retailers should be able to give you an option since they are really a great place to buy digital copiers that are usually in combinations and package deals that comes with warranties that may amount to 30 days or more. These retailers can also be your gateway supplier to compatible ink and other supplies that one person might need.

Buyers can also look out for digital copiers that are being sold in websites like Amazon and eBay. By doing such things, you may have the chance to find some really good copiers in local areas that are being sold by people who are opting out of business. The purchase of old copiers can save people lots of money from the discounted selling price. For example, thousands of dollars are really saved from buying pre-loved pieces of equipment. But one should look for hidden cracks, missing buttons and this will be one of the many criteria when buying used equipments. You can also try to lease the said copier for at least 30 days to find out if it is a perfect fit for your office.

What is the most cost effective color printer (re: cost of cartridges) for a small business?

Question by sharbysyd: What is the most cost effective color printer (re: cost of cartridges) for a small business?
A while ago I purchased an inkjet printer for $ 99.00. I thought it was cheap but it goes through cartridges (which cost $ 25 or more each) like crazy, so I think it really wasn’t a very good deal. My brother mentioned something to me about purchasing a business printer which would be more cost effective regarding ink. I’d like to purchase another printer which would be more cost effective regarding the ink. I’d like it to be an all-in-one (fax, copier, scanner). I’d like to be able to print in color. Any help on this topic is appreciated.

I think Color laser is the way to go for business. You don’t want to buy a pair of ink cartridges that could probably cost you more than the printer.

I am looking at Dell 3110cn printer myself. It’s not a big printer brand name like HP and Canon but it’s actually made by Fuji Xerox. I think it’s the best printer so far I have seen. The paper pass is very simple, just one straight line (the less turn the better for laser printers). Consumables in this printer is just the toner cartridges. You will have some add-on options like duplex unit or wireless nic. The price is $ 424 on their website and the cost per page is like 1 cent per page.

This is the color laser I have been waiting for, Low price with good design. The only problem I have with this machine is it’s really too big for personal use. I am just a regular home user. I don’t have the kind of space for a big printer like that. Otherwise, I would buy it in a heart beat.
