Pricing & Leasing

Are you tired of getting caught off guard by hidden fees and unreasonable terms in your printer contract?

Imagine you are a small business owner looking to lease a printer for your office. You have just received a contract from a printer vendor. But, upon reviewing it, you feel overwhelmed by the technical jargon and fine print. You’re unsure what to look for and worry about missing important details. You also want to avoid getting scammed and end up agreeing to unfair terms. 

Many businesses find themselves in this exact scenario. The printing industry can be daunting for those who are unfamiliar with it.

But if you feel unsure about your contract, don’t sign it just yet! It’s best to take a step back and review it further. Not all contracts are created equally; some contain red flags that could signal a bad deal.

Arguably, no metric is more important to know before purchasing a printer than how much it can print or copy in a month.

When researching a machine's specifications, you'll likely see two categories involving the volume of prints a printer can make: the monthly duty cycle and the recommended monthly print volume. 

There is a major difference between both metrics of printer performance, and not knowing it could have costly consequences. 

As a local print vendor for over 35 years, we've seen how negligent printing and copying can damage printers and lead to costly repairs that hurt the bank.

If you need help deciding between Xerox or HP for a business printer, this blog post is for you. Mainly, if you’re interested in a multifunction color printer, the Xerox VersaLink C415 and the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301 are two great options. However, with so many technical specifications, it can take time to determine which printer to choose. Plus, printers can be quite expensive, so finding a reliable and cost-effective option is essential.

Fortunately, at STPT, we have over 40 years of experience reading printer manuals, analyzing specifications, and seeing printers in action. We are well-versed in Xerox and HP printers and are here to help you make an informed decision. Even though we do sell both brands, we strive to be as unbiased as possible.

​The Amazon company is the powerhouse online shopping center we have all grown accustomed to. It has substantial merit behind it and sales numbers that are astronomical. From its inception as just an online bookstore, to the premier shopping outlet for quick, easy, and almost limitless creativity on options, it's a no-brainer why it's so popular.

However, we always mention here at Strategic Technology Partners of Texas (STPT) that we have over 35 years of experience as a printer vendor, and our partnership with Xerox always gives us opportunities to learn more about products and inform you in ways you can’t get from other websites.
