Tips for Deciding How Many Copiers Your Business Needs

Copiers are an essential piece of equipment for your business. They allow you to create, copy, and distribute materials that can help raise awareness and generate a profit. But just how many copiers does your business need in order to maximize productivity and reduce overhead expenses? Read on for some tips from Arizona Business Equipment. 

Personnel

This may seem like a no-brainer, but how many copiers your business will need depends on how many employees work at your office or headquarters. If your business is on the smaller side, with only five workers, it may not make sense to invest in more than one machine. However, if you have a workforce of 30 employees or more, a single copier will only lead to a lengthy wait time and reduced efficiency. 

Paper

When placing an order for copiers, consider just how much printed material you will need to produce. If you rely mostly on digital literature, or often use devices like tablets and laptops to view documents, you may not need an extra copier. If you are often required to print out long reports or dozens of copies of a certain memo, more machines may be necessary to ensure the future productivity of your office. 

Office Space

The amount of space your business occupies will also affect the amount of copiers you need. One machine may suffice if your space is just one floor. On the other hand, if your business is spread across a warehouse or more than one floor, you want to avoid forcing your employees on the third floor to waste time by making a long trek to the lone copier on an upper level.
