Upgrade Your Office Printer One Level and Cut Your Office Printing Costs in Half

Most small and medium sized (SMB) business owners and managers focus on the upfront cost of office printers. A $300 to $500 device feels like a smart, low-risk choice. But what many don’t realize is that these entry-level machines are often the most expensive way to print.


The reason? Cost per page.


Entry-level printers are designed to be inexpensive to buy but costly to run. They use small, low-yield cartridges that need frequent replacement, driving up ongoing expenses. Over time, the real cost isn’t the device, it’s the supplies.



Here’s the opportunity: Upgrading just one level up, often for only a few hundred dollars more, can cut printing costs by up to 50% immediately.


Mid-tier business-class devices are built differently. They offer:

  • Lower cost per page

  • High-yield toner or ink

  • Fewer replacements

  • Better durability and reliability


That means you spend less every month, not just once.


Even modest print volumes can generate significant savings. Businesses often see the difference within the first supply cycle, no long ROI timeline, just immediate impact.


There are operational benefits too:

  • Less downtime from changing cartridges

  • More advanced features and functions

  • Faster print speeds

  • More consistent performance


Yet many SMBs miss this because they focus only on purchase price instead of total cost of ownership (TCO).


A slightly higher upfront investment can dramatically reduce long-term costs. It’s one of the simplest ways to improve efficiency without changing workflows or increasing complexity.


Bottom line: You don’t need enterprise equipment to save money. Just move up one tier.


A small upgrade today can deliver significant ongoing savings starting immediately.


And if you choose to partner with a provider like The Fax & Printer Guy Inc. you will receive the added value of on-site service and support included with your toner purchases.


Now that's BIG VALUE!
