Leasing a fully-featured office printer can be far cheaper than you imagineBuying a printer seems like the logical choice if you need to expand your office's print productivity. However, you're probably put off by the huge initial outlay, the ongoing maintenance costs and the leering threat of pricey consumables. If these are genuine concerns, consider leasing a Xerox Printer.

In the last few years, printer leasing has become a very popular alternative to buying a printer outright. It holds several advantages that will suit businesses of all sizes:

• No initial outlay: With no device to buy, there's no initial cost that must be borne. In fact, you never have to fork out a lump sum, just monthly payments for the life of your contract. That means the cash you've saved can be reinvested into other business areas, such as recruitment. And with leases ranging from twelve months to 5 years, you get exactly what you need at a price you can afford.
• Ease of upgrading: Business print needs changed? No problem - get in contact and we'll find you a more suitable product. In fact, we will pro-actively suggest upgrades to you to keep you up to date with the industry as a whole.
• No regrets: When you buy a printer and install it, there's inevitably a period of road testing before you know if it suits your needs. What happens if it doesn't? Well, you may have to sell it off at a loss. But with printer leasing, if it's not suitable we provide you with a different device until we find one that's perfect for you.
• Integrated repair costs: Maintenance costs are expensive. If you own your own printer and it breaks down, you have to wait for an engineer to be dispatched, all the while suffering from limited or no print capabilities. Once the printer has been fixed, you may be slapped with a huge bill for parts and labour. Maintenance is included in the printer leasing price - and some packages even include consumables - so you have only one monthly cost that will never spike unexpectedly.
• Seasonal or project work: It may be that for a two week period you need production equipment to deal with a one-off project. Buying the printer wouldn't be cost-effective, but with printer leasing you can take up a special short-term contract that delivers what you need, when you need it.

Printer leasing is particularly beneficial to small businesses or start-ups who may have limited cash to spend. It's also a great choice for companies with requirements that frequently change.
