Cost of Printing

The lifetime cost of IT equipment has become a hot issue. Even PC manufacturers have adopted total cost of ownership (TCO) as a way of differentiating products remarkable only for their similarity. Printers, however, are different. Whether laser or inkjet, the principal operating expense, the cost of consumables, can be expected to represent several times the purchase price of the printer.

We at Kyocera Mita have long-since recognised the TCO of office printers to be a major issue. We understand that most printer manufacturers depend on sales of consumables for the majority of their profit and we know that the average networked printer consumes 11,000 pages worth of toner each month. Over a typical printer’s life, the difference in toner costs between Kyocera Mita’s printers and any of our competitors can amount to thousands of pounds.
