Computer printers and scanners for every task

Maybe it's time to eliminate boxes of paper and upload vital documents to cloud files. Or part of your company's purpose includes specially printed menus, brochures, invitations, or other eye-catching handouts. To complete all these tasks, check out a range of printers and scanners and choose the model that best fits your business needs. Consider models with features such as automatic duplex printing to reduce paper use. Some printers offer multiple connectivity types and connect easily to your office network and allow printing from mobile devices for optimal efficiency.

Determine your need for office printers

Identify your office's needs, space, and preferences. You have many choices with these devices, such as printers that are wireless and all-in-one options, as well as laser or inkjet printers and 3D replicators. Desktop models have a small footprint and are a smart choice for small businesses where space is at a premium. For larger companies, or those with more demanding print needs, large high-capacity models are the best option. For optimal efficiency in demanding businesses, choose models that accept high-yield ink cartridges that produce up to 12,000 pages. Ensure you purchase a printer with a maximum monthly duty cycle that significantly exceeds the maximum number of pages you think your business will produce in a month. This optimizes the lifespan of laser and inkjet printers and reduces the need for maintenance.

The functionality of laser and inkjet printers

All-in-one printers are ideal for busy workplaces, and you can choose from a number of inkjet and laser printers. Smart apps allow users to print remotely using a mobile device or a laptop, so they don't have to walk to the printer. Automatic document feeders are a standard feature, helping employees print all paperwork on time. Since many models are wireless-capable, printers and scanners also include security software, which protects sensitive company information from third parties. Paper compatibility options include glossy papers, brochures, recycled paper, and other common types and sizes. This helps companies in different industries with versatile printing projects while using a single printer.

Inkjet printers are ideal for printing professional texts with deep and rich black and color displays. Easy-to-handle touchscreens are available in most all-in-one printers, which also provide copying, scanning, and faxing functions inside a single device. LED indicators make it easy to check if the printer is active during a printing session. Look for high-end printers to supply a large team of employees, or choose multiple printers for convenience. Real-time threat detection prevents overrides in the hardware, completing all printing sessions and rebooting afterward. Two-sided scanning saves a lot of time as there's no need to turn over documents needlessly. 

Operating printers is simple and energy-efficient

Energy Star® certifications in several printers guarantee energy preservation, so companies and households can save on power bills. Paper consumption is another aspect worth considering due to the convenient double-sided printing feature. Modern ink and toner cartridge designs enable quick and simple ink refills. It's also easy to see current ink levels when getting ready for upcoming printing work.
