Estimating Copies on a Copier Lease
An estimate is by it's very nature inexact. However in a color copier lease, a bad estimate can be very costly. If you understimate the number of copies you do, many copier leases lock-in expensive per-copy charges. Moreover, you'll have added strain on a digital copier which could lead to more downtime or additional repair charges.
If you overestimate, you'll get whacked with a monthly copying minimum fee hidden in many equipment leases. So, you will be paying a monthly fee for a color copier that you don't use.
Always ask if there is a minimum copying or per-copy fee. The best alternative is often a flat rate, where you can control the costs of service and copying.
