Tips for choosing the right printer repair service

So how do you choose the best printer repair service? Here are some questions to ask when doing your research:

Do they offer to perform on-site repair? This could be important so you don’t have to move your device or wait to schedule a pickup time, then the travel time for them to take it to their facility and then return it.

How about a maintenance contract? You would think they are expensive, but have you ever calculated the costs for your business associated with the time of your repair or a catastrophic failure versus the cost of an annual maintenance contract to perform preventive maintenance?  You would be surprised at the cost savings for your business.

Does the printer repair service have a loaner to let you use during your repair? You may have to pay a rental fee and the cost of supplies. This could save you productivity time for your business. You can also determine how large their overall business is in Las Vegas based on the amount of investment in their inventory or the number of refurbished machines they have on hand for customer use.

Do you know what type of printer you need repaired?

If not, you should. Printers today can be quite an investment. There are a number of varieties that we all use for business. In order to find the right repair service, you first need to determine which type of device you have that needs to be repaired.

These are mostly found in offices or cubicles and are sitting on a desk. These desktop inkjet printers are fast, normally print color and black and white, and go through inkjet toner pretty quickly. The price for this type of printer has dropped so significantly over the years that you may consider buying a new one when considering the cost of repairing it.

These printers were mainly used for high volume printing of black and white, but today they can also provide quality and economical printing in color too. They come in many sizes and are considered to be the “work horse” for any office since they can handle large volume print jobs and feature a variety of different speeds.

Multi-function printers and/or copiers can print, fax, scan, and copy, thus the name for this type of printer. They can be either inkjet or laser technology, but most found in offices are laser printers since they can save costs at higher printing volume.  When deciding on one of these devices, you will need to consider toner cost, speed (printing and scanning), and advanced options (paper size, folding, stapling, sorting, etc.). If you need a copier repaired in Las Vegas, you may want to review our article: “Best Copier Repair Service in Las Vegas”.

Most printers can print on letter sized (8-1/2” x 11”) or legal sized (8-1/2” x 14”) bond paper. This is great for documents, flyers, presentations, handout, etc. Wide format printers are usually inkjet, print on a roll of paper from 18” to 100” wide, and are great for banners, maps, architectural designs, etc.

These are quite new and only found in some offices. They are mainly used in building models or physical objects from a digital design. They use specialized materials and software and since they aren’t a mainstream device, you will most likely have to go back to the manufacturer for service until there are more companies that provide repair services for these machines.
