Need assessment has to be done before choosing a printer Before deciding on a printer you need to know exactly what you are going to use your printer for. The sheer number of printouts you need to take in a day, week or month is going to be the first criteria for your decision making. You need to be very specific if you need colored print outs or just black and white print outs. Check for the precision you need while printing, if you are looking forward to print maps, charts or pie diagrams you need a different kind of a printer. If you are looking for a printer for your laboratory then you will need another printer. A color Inkjet printer will be apt for home where people do not take many print outs. A laser printer will be good enough for a small office and for workgroups that share a common printer. Check Printer Features Before purchase printer, you need to check the features of the printer. Firstly, you need to check the printer speed because if your printer’s speed is low then it not only creates frustrating situations but also reduces your productivity. You also need to check the printer’s quality, model, memory, connectivity and other additional features that you may require. Keep your requirements in mind while checking the features of the printer and ensure that the features fit the bill.
Availability of maintenance and other services Always purchase good quality printers from reputed companies because they not only provide high quality printers but also provide service, repairs, maintenance, installation, and customization and spare parts with ease. A fly by night company may offer you a printer at very low prices but the after sale services of these organizations are pathetic and they don’t really care much about their customers. Printers from companies like HP, Cannon, Panasonic, Brother are quite sought after in the market because of their after sale services and easy availability of service centers in local areas. Availability of toners, cartridge, and ink Toners and cartridges both used to print document and photos should be readily available for the printer you have chosen. Toners, cartridge, and ink are important component for printer so it is important to know if they are readily available in your area or someone like Inkmasters can deliver it to you. Therefore, when you purchase the printer you need to check the quality, performance, and compact design for toners and cartridge.
Life span of the printer Different printers have different life span such as HP CB382A printer has a claimed life span of 10 years but many old HP printers are still performing today as well as they did 15 years ago. If you are purchasing long life span printer then it can save you’re a lot of money.
