Estimating copy volumes in 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.

If you're considering a copier lease, please consider the Graphic Savings Group. For advice on copier volume and matching the right machine to your needs, visit our sister company JJ Bender.

Copier Leasing: Getting the Best Interest Rate

In order to be successful in earning the best interest rate on your copier lease, you need to think big. No matter what the size of your company; you need to learn to throw your weight around like the big boys when it comes to copier leasing- that's the best way to earn a competitive rate.

That also means not taking the first offer from manufacturers. First, get the rate in writing as to the percentage and the real cost of leasing a copier directly from the manufacturer such as Xerox or Canon. You might be surprised to learn the rates on a Xerox copier lease or NexPress copier. That means soliciting additional offers. Pretend you are a municipality looking for a copier lease and the terms of the municipal lease demand that you have three bids from financial services corporations. Let everybody know that you're looking around, the numbers you're quoted might change in a hurry.

In a competitive marketplace, you can reap the benefits and get the copier lease that you want. So, if you're thinking about leasing a copier, please consider the Graphic Savings Group.
