Is your print technology ready for the new financial year?

Is your print technology ready for the new financial year?

As we approach the end of the financial year, it’s a great time for businesses to review their existing print technology. Not only can upgrading or replacing your printer or photocopier set you up for better efficiency and reliability in the new financial year, but it can also help you make the most of any available tax deductions. Ensuring you’re working with the latest technology backed by dependable service can reduce downtime and keep your team running smoothly.

Plus, by reviewing your print setup now, you can make informed decisions that could offer cost savings while taking advantage of tax-time benefits. For more information on eligible deductions and how they might apply to your print environment, check out the Australian Taxation Office website or speak with a professional advisor.

Cost and efficiency
While desktop printers work well for smaller offices or low-volume needs, businesses with higher print demands often find themselves navigating inefficiencies and rising costs. Evaluating your current setup can reveal opportunities to consolidate print equipment to a more robust, professional-quality printer or photocopier like Sharp or Kyocera. These devices handle large volumes effortlessly, deliver superior print quality, and come with features like automatic duplex printing, scan-to-email, and expanded paper capacity. This reduces the hassle and expense of managing multiple printers while improving productivity and lowering overall costs.

Hybrid technology
Many businesses – from medical practices to educational institutions and larger enterprises – benefit from a mix of desktop printers and central photocopiers. Desktop printers can be perfect for private offices or consultation rooms, while a central photocopier handles bulk printing for the entire team. This hybrid approach keeps sensitive printing needs secure while maintaining cost-effective printing for day-to-day tasks.

Maintenance and reliability
Frequent cartridge replacements and downtime from malfunctions can take a toll on your budget and your workflow. Professional-grade printers and photocopiers not only reduce consumable costs but also provide greater reliability and longevity. Plus, Managed Print Services offer peace of mind, with local experts handling consumable replacements, repairs, and ongoing support to keep your office running smoothly.

Security
As cybersecurity threats continue to grow, reviewing your print environment is critical. Professional print devices come with advanced security features like data encryption, secure print release, and built-in antivirus software. Ensuring your devices are correctly configured on your network adds another layer of protection, and our local Service team are here to help.
