Fast, accurate printing at a low ongoing cost is a hallmark of laser and solid-ink printers. Found in busy office environments, network laser printers allow multiple computer users to easily print from the same machine. An appropriately chosen laser or solid-ink printer will frequently give the lowest ongoing costs of any printer. Multifunction lasers can also act as photocopiers and scanners, reducing floor space requirements for office machinery.

Laser Printers Update
March 2010 Technology Update

Currently Fuji Xerox are leading the way in terms of colour laser sales, while in mono the Kyocera printers are always strong. The reason why Xerox sales are up is due to the 3 year on-site warranty given to models like the Xerox 3300DX and the Xerox Phaser 8560. This promotion will end on the 31st of March so be quick! As most consumers already know, Fuji Xerox are the world leaders in terms of colour laser printers - they are reliable, well-supported and produce a colour printer that really is second-to-none.

Fuji Xerox also produce a solid ink machine the Xerox 8560 - Fuji Xerox's exclusive solid ink technology is not only a viable, affordable option for those customers looking to add colour to their business documents, but has also become a competitive force in the printing industry. Other companies have tried to compete with Fuji Xerox's long history of colour expertise, but none have come close to matching the convenience and quality offered by solid ink technology. Solid ink printers produce brilliant, vibrant prints on a wide range of media, are easy to use and produce 90% less waste than a typical colour laser printer.

Leading the way in mono laser printer technology is Kyocera. For a long time Kyocera have been producing mono laser printers with the lowest cost of ownership in the market. Governments, schools and large offices have been turning to Kyocera to save money on running costs. A great feature is Koycera’s online Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) calculator. Whether you're ready for a full managed print services program, or you are simply looking for more cost effective print alternatives, check out the Kyocera advantage through our exclusive TCO Tracker.

The TCO Tracker compares your current printer's running costs with a comparable Kyocera ECOSYS printer. What makes the TCO Tracker unique is that it is the only printer cost comparison tool in the industry utilizing IDC market data to compare the cost of the printers, including supplies and maintenance kits, based upon your typical monthly print volume. Kyocera also recognizes the burden that business activities can place on the environment. Kyocera strive to maintain a clear vision in pursuing a harmonious balance between economic development and environmental preservation.

Printer Tips


Printer Tips

  • Remember that the cheapest colour printer to buy will almost never be the cheapest to run!
  • Buy a 2nd set of consumables now! Printers use/waste a lot of ink/toner the first time you turn them on, this is called a prime. You will save on couriers/petrol, often get a lower bundle price plus you won't be pulling your hair out in the middle of a print job trying to find a shop with the correct cartridges that won't rip you off!
  • Find out how many printed pages you’re expected to get out of a cartridge and work out how much a black and white and colour page costs.
  • What's the printer's "First Page Time Out" speed? This is a good check to see how much memory the printer has, and how much warming up time it will require before it starts printing.
  • How many people will need access to the printer? This is an important consideration in choosing between buying a desktop model or a larger enterprise printer with network capabilities.
  • Extended Warranties (Genuine only) can be a good idea if you always need a working printer - on-site warranties are generally better than "back to base" warranties for important printing, as they'll come and service your machine wherever it's located. A print head can cost $2000! Silly we know but it's too late to complain once your printer is out of warranty.
