Common questions

Everything you
need to know

Questions about desktop printers, our contracts, service and pricing - answered clearly.

Leasing and rental are operationally identical - you get equipment, service, and toner on a contract. The difference is purely how the agreement is structured for your finance team. Rental terminology suits businesses that prefer off-balance-sheet treatment; leasing suits those who prefer a finance lease structure. Both run on 36–60 month terms with separate service contracts covering toner, parts and engineer callouts.
The service contract covers toner cartridges, all parts, labour and on-site engineer callouts for the full contract duration - at no extra charge. Optional additions include remote monitoring, automatic toner replenishment and usage reporting with colour/mono volume breakdowns per user or department.
Desktop A4 printer rental starts from £20 per month. Floor-standing A4 workgroup printers start from £40 per month. Floor-standing A3 multifunction devices start from £60 per month. All prices are on 36-month terms and include a full service contract covering toner, parts and engineer callouts. Exact pricing depends on device model, print volumes and contract length.
Most agreements run for 36 to 60 months. We structure the term around your budget and usage, and can model mid-term changes if your volumes change. 36-month terms give the most flexibility; 60-month terms give the lowest monthly cost.
Yes - we deliver, install, connect to your network, configure drivers and scan destinations, apply security settings and train your team. Everything is ready from day one with no IT resource required on your side.
Yes. When your volumes increase or requirements change, we can add or refresh devices during the agreement. We model the change and show exactly how it affects your monthly cost before any commitment.
Rental spreads costs over 36–60 months with toner and maintenance included, while buying requires capital upfront and separate service contracts. Rental keeps devices current and eliminates unexpected repair bills. Most UK businesses benefit from rental because it makes budgeting predictable and avoids ageing equipment.
3-hour same-day response guaranteed to Frodsham and Helsby. Remote diagnostics are available immediately and resolve many issues without a site visit.
You can upgrade to new equipment on fresh terms, extend at revised pricing, or return the device. We contact you in advance of contract end with options so you always have time to plan.
No. Your invoice shows two lines: the hardware lease and the service contract. Toner, parts, labour and engineer callouts are all included. No hidden fees. Optional extras are listed clearly before you commit.
