A printer quoted at 40 pages a minute is quoting a single sided black page from a warm machine, and the cost that matters is pence per page over five years rather than the price on the box. Every listing here states the real running cost, the monthly duty cycle the machine is actually built for, what the consumables cost and how long they last. Where a cheaper machine would do the job we say so, because the money in this trade is in the consumables and we would rather you knew that from us than worked it out in year two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: an organisation that would rather pay a known pence per page than buy machines and argue about toner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecification: a heavier duty build with a higher monthly duty cycle and a longer service life, for a machine that works all day rather than occasionally\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity: sized from a print audit of your actual volume rather than from the number of people, because the two are not related in the way anybody expects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsumables: included. Toner is despatched automatically on a low level alert, so it arrives before it runs out and nobody keeps a drawer of spares\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnectivity: full network deployment, driver packaging, scan destinations and secure release where specified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning cost: a single pence per page figure covering toner, parts, labour and service. Cost per page is the number to compare, not the price of the machine. A cheap printer with expensive cartridges costs more over three years than a dearer one with high yield toner, and the gap is usually several times the price difference on the hardware. Every printer and copier listing here publishes pence per page in mono and colour at the standard and the high yield cartridge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSustainability: Energy Star devices, automatic duplex and mono defaults, and toner cartridge return.

It costs a fraction of a machine, it takes a month, and in most offices it concludes that the estate has more devices than it needs rather than older ones. We are perfectly happy to sell you fewer printers than you have now, because a managed contract is a five year relationship and starting it by overselling is a poor way to begin.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MSU Trade","offers":[{"title":"Up to 10 users","offer_id":55383001792841,"sku":"MSU-MPP-002-U10","price":2399.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 to 30 users","offer_id":55383001825609,"sku":"MSU-MPP-002-U30","price":2924.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 to 75 users","offer_id":55383001858377,"sku":"MSU-MPP-002-U75","price":3624.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/msu-trade.com\/products\/managed-print-package-for-a-thirty-person-office","provider":"MSU Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
