Are you spending too much on your printer?

Like most businesses, we’re sure everyone reading this has a printer in their office that gets used many times throughout the day. But did you know that you could be essentially throwing money away each month simply by having the wrong type of printer?

Recently we’ve come across a few cases of local businesses using basic store-bought inkjet printers in their offices, and while these will have been an attractively cheap option at purchase, the 'hidden' costs have quickly snowballed.

In one example, we found one company spending over £100 a month replacing the ink cartridges on one printer alone!

The solution to this was to install a laser printer.. Businesses generally use printers at a far higher volume than a standard home user so while it might seem like a 'big' purchase initially, the running costs turn out to be far less in the long run.
