Photocopier Lease and Rental Brisbane

Four ways to pay for a copier

We quote on whichever you ask for and say honestly which looks best for the way your office works.

Option	Term	Who it suits
Buy outright	You own it from the first day	Offices that like to own, and those buying reconditioned or ex demo
Hire	Under 12 months	A project, an event, a trial of a model, a temporary office
Rental	24 to 36 months	Businesses that want flexibility without a long commitment
Lease	36 to 60 months	Offices that want a current machine and a steady cost over a longer run

We print no prices here. The figure depends on the machine and the term, and the quote is yours to compare.

Photocopier rental Brisbane

Rental sits between hire and a lease. Over 24 to 36 months you get the machine, the paperwork and the service in one arrangement, with a shorter commitment than a long lease. It suits growing businesses, those unsure what their needs will be, and offices that want to review the machine when the term ends.

If you only need a copier for a short time, hire under 12 months is simpler.

Hire for a project, an event or a trial

Hire suits a project office, a temporary site or a trial of a new model. You say what you need and for how long, we deliver and set the machine up, and when you finish we collect it. Several offices have used hire as a way to try a model before buying it, which is a sensible way to spend a few months.

Why some offices lease

Reasons we hear on the phone.

It spreads the cost and keeps cash free for the rest of the business.
A current machine arrives without a large upfront outlay.
The cost is predictable, so it is easy to budget.
At the end you can upgrade, extend or hand it back, depending on the agreement.
Service can sit alongside the lease, so one team looks after the machine.

Leasing is not always right. If you print very little, or would rather own a reconditioned machine, buying can cost less over time. We say so.

Reading the small print without a lawyer

Three things in a copier agreement catch people. The first is the volume the agreement assumes. If it is built around a page count and the office prints well above it, there can be an excess charge. The second is what happens when the term ends: some agreements roll on quietly unless notice is given. The third is whose job it is to service the machine, and what that service covers. None of these is hidden, they are just in a part of the document nobody reads.

If you want a second opinion on a quote you have been given, send us the details. We will tell you what looks fair and what to ask about, whether or not you end up with us.

Finance, in plain language

Finance spreads the purchase of a machine over a term. You choose the machine, we arrange the finance, and it is delivered and set up like any other. A lease or finance contract is an agreement with a finance company, with its own terms. Read it. Ask what happens at the end. Ask who is responsible for service.

We talk through all of it on the phone and we do not push an arrangement that does not suit you.

Stopped before the month end run?Tell us what the panel says. Same day service is available, so ask early.

Questions to ask before you sign anything

The ones we would ask if it were our office.

How long will the machine be needed, and could the office change in that time?
How much does the office print? Leases and rentals are built around a volume.
Who services it, and who do you ring when it stops?
What happens if you want a different machine, or want to end early?
What happens at the end: return, upgrade, extend or buy?
Are toner and service included?

Lease or buy, side by side

Neither suits everybody.

Question	Lease or rental	Buy outright
Upfront cost	Spread over the term	Paid at the start
Who owns it	Usually the finance company until the end	You, from day one
Flexibility	Upgrade or hand back at the end of the term	Keep it as long as you like and sell when ready
Service	Can sit alongside the agreement	Arranged separately or under a service agreement
Fits	A current machine and predictable cost	Owners, and buyers of reconditioned or ex demo

A first copier for a new business

A new business rarely knows what it will print. A rental or a short lease keeps the commitment modest and can be changed as the business grows. A reconditioned machine bought outright is another way to keep the cost down. Tell us the headcount and what you expect to print, and we put the options side by side.

Which route fits which office

A three person practice that prints a little and likes to own things usually buys a reconditioned machine. A growing agency that has doubled its headcount in a year is better off with a rental, because the machine it needs next year is not the machine it needs now. A school adding a second copier for an admin block can go either way. A site office that closes in October hires, and gives it back.

The pattern is the length of time you are sure about. If you know it is five years, a lease is straightforward. If you know it is eight months, hire. If you have no idea, a rental keeps the door open.

Fleets and growing offices

If you are adding machines, or replacing a group, tell us. A fleet is easier to look after when the machines are alike, and one arrangement covering several machines puts a single number between you and a stalled copier.

The thing nobody budgets for

A machine on a lease still wears. Fusers age, feed rollers wear, and a drum has a life measured in pages. Where the agreement leaves service to you, plan for it. A planned visit costs less than an emergency one, and a machine kept in good order is easier to hand back at the end without an argument over condition.

Servicing a leased or rented machine

Our technicians are trained, experienced and certified, carry the common spare parts and fix 98% of repairs on the first visit. If the same fault returns we fix it again at no charge. Same day service is available.

If you already lease from another provider, read the agreement first. Service may be the provider's responsibility, and an outside repair can start an argument. If service is yours, or the agreement has finished, ring us.

New, ex demo or reconditioned on a lease

You can lease or rent a new machine, and we can talk through options on ex demo and reconditioned machines too. The machines we sell are warranted and we explain what is covered on the phone. If you are replacing a machine we take trade ins and buy used commercial machines you own.

Where we arrange it

We arrange these across Brisbane and the outer corridors, from Ipswich and the Scenic Rim edge to Moreton Bay, Caboolture, the Redlands and Toowoomba. Ring (07) 3073 5255 or use the contact page. Busy lines get the call logged and returned.
