Are you considering a new office copier/printer for your office and are having trouble deciding between a color or black and white model? You are not alone! In fact, this is one of our most common questions here at STAT Business Systems.
Major Considerations – Color vs. Black and White Office Copiers and Printers
Although there are many factors that will help you choose between a multifunction copy machine here are the major considerations:
- Are you using your office copy machine to produce visually attractive documents? These are commonly seen in industries such as Real Estate, Healthcare, Retail, and other businesses that are looking to wow their clients with visually stimulating documents that require a color multifunction office copier.
- How important is fast printing to your business? Although color machines produce brilliant results, the tradeoff is that the printing time will typically be slower. A black and white machine is much more effective at scale especially in office settings where a lot of employees are utilizing one printing machine.
- Is printing cost a big consideration for your company? This is where the volume of printing can make an easy decision between color and black and white office copiers. If you are printing a lot in color but could be printing without it, there could be significant savings with a black and white model. High volume printing is best left to black and white office machines unless color is absolutely required. Color models are more expensive to operate.
- Is there ever a time where color printing is absolutely required? This is an obvious question but sometimes is overlooked. Maybe your logo, letterhead, or other regular printing calls for color and is necessary to present the right business image. Although this question seems obvious it is often overlooked when considering the cost savings of a black and white multifunctional printer.
