Rent or Lease an A3 Printer

Renting and leasing agreements are great options for businesses who don’t want to buy, or want to spread the cost of buying, a printer outright. 

If your business needs a special type of printer for a short period of time, such as an A3 laser printer, then choosing to rent may be the best option for you. 

Is it worth renting or leasing an A3 printer?

Whether you choose to rent or lease an A3 printer generally depends on your specific circumstances. However, both options offer great flexibility and affordability compared to buying an A3 printer outright. 

Although renting and leasing have a few similarities, it’s worth noting that renting is generally a much shorter term agreement than leasing, is more flexible and can have an open term/rolling contract.

The benefits of renting an A3 laser printer

Renting an A3 laser printer is a great choice for businesses who are looking for cost-effective and predictable monthly payments. Not only does it allow a business to keep track of their monthly spendings, but it also enables them to focus on core operations without large up-front investments.

Some key benefits of renting an A3 laser printer include:

• Lower upfront costs - Renting removes the need for a large upfront cost to purchase a printer, which can be particularly helpful for small businesses that may not have the cash flow to purchase a printer outright. 

• Predictable monthly payments - Renting contracts will usually include fixed monthly payments, making it easier to manage printing costs and set a budget. 

• Upgrade options and scaleability - Renting allows you to upgrade to newer models as your business needs change and newer models become available. This enables businesses to easily scale their printing capabilities without being tied to long-term purchases. 

• Depreciation isn’t a concern - Since you won’t technically own the printer, you don’t have to worry about any depreciation of the equipment. This means you don’t need to be concerned about losing money when re-selling equipment. 

The benefits of leasing an A3 laser printer

The benefits of leasing an A3 laser printer are quite similar to those of renting, including lower upfront costs, predictable monthly payments and access to the latest technology. 

Some key benefits of leasing an A3 laser printer include:

• Lower upfront costs - Leasing allows businesses to avoid the large upfront costs that are required for purchasing a printer outright. This can help free up funds for other important needs while still receiving high quality equipment. 

• Access to the latest technology - Leasing office equipment, like laser printers, ensures you always have access to the latest technology without the need for constant costly upgrades. 

• Predictable monthly payments - Lease agreements, much like renting, involve fixed monthly payments. This is ideal for a range of businesses, especially SMEs who are looking to keep costs down while they grow their business. 

Both renting and leasing A3 laser printers often come with maintenance and support packages too. 

At Copy Print Services, we can provide managed print service (MPS) packages with your rented or leased A3 laser printers, helping you to free up precious time by maintaining, repairing and servicing your machines.

Features to consider when leasing an A3 laser printer

When you’re leasing an A3 laser printer, there are a few different features you should consider, including:

• Print quality and speed - You should look for a printer that can handle your print output, both in terms of quality and speed. The higher DPI generally translates to better quality, and this is something you should look for when choosing a laser printer. 

• Paper capacity - If your business relies heavily on printing, then it’s essential that you find a printer that can meet your printing demands and also hold enough paper. 

• Network connectivity - You should look for a printer that supports your network connection. You may also want to consider mobile printing too. 

• Security - Print security is becoming an essential part of any office environment. If you are printing confidential documents or those that contain sensitive information, then finding a printer that facilitates strict security measures is essential.
