Your machines are costing your business more money than you realize
Before you purchased or leased your office equipment, you probably examined the financial aspects. When you drew up a budget you included the cost of the machine and any necessary components, such as stocking it with paper, toner or ink. Did your budget factor in the amount of time your employees would spend using it? While they may have worked smoothly at the beginning, outdated copiers require a significant amount of time to complete simple tasks. When your employees are spending extra time completing these tasks, your business is losing time and money.
It’s becoming harder to find supplies
One of the most glaring telltale signs, when your office equipment needs service and the manufacturer is no longer making the parts. Basic components become increasingly difficult, and expensive, to find. When parts are difficult to locate, your business will be at a stand still when these machines breakdown. Suddenly “old reliable” is more expensive to operate than a newer machine.
Why have four when you can have one?
Do you have too many machines performing similar functions? Running several different machines requires a significant amount of energy output and if they are all outdated, a significant amount of maintenance as well. They could be consolidated into one multifunctional printer and end up saving you money on energy output, repairs, and time. One multifunctional printer would reduce the amount of energy used when printing, especially when compared to outdated machines, increasing your ROI in the long run.
