The difference in one table
Short-term rental is a third route when you need a machine for a project or an event.
| Lease | Buy | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Spread over the lease term | More up front |
| Service | Can be included | Your choice of service plan |
| The machine | Agreed in your lease | You own it |
Five questions to settle first
Write your answers down. They are what a good quote is built on.
- How long will you use this machine: a project, or many years?
- Would one monthly figure suit your budget better than a large payment now?
- Do you want service and toner arranged along with the machine?
- About how many pages will you print each month?
- Will the office grow, so that you may want to change machines later?
What to bring to the conversation
You do not need a perfect spreadsheet. A few notes are enough for us to quote.
- The machines you use now, with their models or a photo of the label
- Where they are and who uses them
- About how many pages a month
- What is slow or fails today
What affects the price
What affects the price: the model, buy or lease, finishing, lease term, service plan, and your monthly pages. We confirm it on your quote.
