Why to Avoid Paying for Copies You Don’t Use

To get the most out of your contract, understand that copier vendors in the Oklahoma City area bring in profit through prints. When purchasing a copier, a lot of people err by setting up a contract that gives them more pages each month than they need. They figure it’s better to pay for extra pages to avoid overages, but really those overages line up pretty well with the per click cost. Here’s an example:

If your Oklahoma City company is signed up for 80,000 prints each month for $500, you’re paying .006 cent for each. Let’s say you only print 40,000 copies each month, so your rate is actually doubled, because you’re paying for all the pages whether you print them or not. It seems that a .01 cent rate for a lower number of copies would cost your business more. In reality, it would actually save you money because you’re not paying for unused prints.

To find your per print costs, divide your payment amount by the number of copies you print in your Oklahoma City office, and this will help you choose the right copier print price for your needs.
