If you’ve been thinking about replacing your office copier but holding off—now’s the time to act. With new tariffs on imported office equipment expected to take effect in the coming months, prices are likely to rise across the board.
At STAT Business Systems, we’re encouraging our clients in Florida to lock in current pricing on Kyocera and KIP copiers before tariffs push equipment costs higher. Whether you’re looking to upgrade an aging machine or expand your print capacity, getting ahead of these changes can save you money—and headaches—down the road.
Here’s why upgrading your office copier now makes smart business sense.
1. Tariffs Could Significantly Raise Equipment Costs
With trade tensions ramping up, new tariffs are expected to impact a wide range of electronics and office technology, including multifunction printers, wide-format devices, and components like toner cartridges and print engines.
This could translate into:
- Higher prices for new copier purchases
- Increased leasing rates as equipment costs rise
- Delays or disruptions in supply chains
By upgrading now, you avoid the impact of these potential cost increases and gain price certainty.
2. Secure Lower Lease Rates Before They Adjust
Leasing a copier from STAT Business Systems means predictable monthly payments—and right now, those payments are based on pre-tariff pricing.
Once the tariffs take effect, leasing rates across the industry may adjust to reflect the higher equipment costs. By locking in a lease today, you’ll keep your payments low for the duration of your agreement while still receiving:
- Brand-new equipment
- Ongoing service and support
- Toner monitoring and automatic supply delivery
3. Upgrade to More Efficient, Cost-Saving Technology
If your current copier is more than five years old, you’re already paying more than you should—through maintenance costs, slower speeds, and expensive toner refills.
Upgrading to a modern Kyocera copier gives your office:
- Faster print and scan speeds
- Secure printing with user tracking
- Lower energy and toner consumption
- Mobile and cloud integration
So not only do you avoid tariff-driven price increases—you also reduce your day-to-day operating costs.
4. Improve Workflow and Productivity Before Busy Season
For many businesses, Q3 and Q4 are the busiest times of the year. Now is the perfect moment to upgrade your copier before your team is buried in invoices, contracts, or project plans.
With Kyocera’s multifunction copiers or KIP wide-format systems, you’ll:
- Cut time spent waiting on prints and scans
- Eliminate bottlenecks from outdated devices
- Keep staff focused and efficient
- Gain reliable uptime with STAT’s proactive service
5. Stay Ahead of Supply Chain Delays
If tariffs impact global supply chains, it may become harder—or slower—to get certain machines or parts. Getting your upgrade in place now ensures you have what you need before availability becomes limited.
We’re already seeing signs of extended lead times from some manufacturers, especially on higher-volume units and wide-format devices. STAT Business Systems has inventory in place and preferred access to Kyocera and KIP stock—but that advantage won’t last forever.
