3 Copier Rental Traps To Avoid When Leasing A Copier

When searching to rent a copier, you’ll sometimes come across some deals that seem too good to be true. Well, as the saying goes, if it’s too good to be true, it’s probably not true. If you’re offered deals that are too cheap compared to what’s proposed by other vendors, make sure to check the fine prints. With that said, let’s explore 3 of the most common traps that you should be aware of and avoid getting into one.   Recond Copier Advertised As Brand New What It Means Some copier rental vendors may advertise their reconditioned copier as being new. Unfortunately, this means you are paying the price of a brand new copier but getting a used copier instead. They may also use the term ‘newer model’, which tricks you into thinking it means ‘new model’. That’s how they can offer you a lower monthly rental rate, similar or only slightly higher than other recond packages. How To Avoid Look out for the word ‘Brand New’or ‘Recond/Reconditioned/Refurbished’ in their copier quotation/rental agreement. You can also check for the offered copier’s introduction date to determine if the copier is still in production. If the date is more than 3 years, this is a potential red flag that you need to clarify further. High Non-refundable Deposit What It Means Saving money on your copier rental may seem like the best option at first glance. But when renting your copy machine, it is essential to be aware of possible high non-refundable deposits and hidden fees. A high non-refundable deposit would be like purchasing the machine instead of a rental; therefore, the rental fee could be meagre. These non-refundable deposits and hidden fees from your cheap copier lease agreements can cost you much more in the long run. How To Avoid Double-check and ask the vendor if the deposit is refundable Check the current market price for the copier proposed Used Second-hand Copier vs Proper Reconditioned Copier What It Means Some copier rental suppliers offer similar reconditioned copier models but at much lower rental prices than the market. In reality, the copier machine offered might be a second-hand used condition instead of an adequately overhauled one. The risk of purchasing a used second-hand copier without an overhaul is that you will not know the actual condition of the machine. Reconditioned copiers are copy machines that undergo an overhauling process to renew, repair, and exchange any damaged parts. However, this overhauling process has its own cost. A second-hand used machine does not undergo this overhauling process; therefore, reducing the cost incurred, allowing the supplier to rent it out at a cheaper rental rate. This second-hand used copier is considered a lower quality product, needing more repairs, maintenance, and replacement than newer models. How To Avoid Check the copier rental supplier’s background & review to ensure they are trustworthy. Compare prices and ask the supplier why they can offer much lower rental prices compared to their competitors. Conclusion Everyone loves cheap deals, but you must know what you are getting with those deals. Learn how to protect yourself to ensure you get what you paid for while getting the performance you desire. *Other Model Available RICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296

Paper size measurements used by photocopy machines

Did you know that photostat paper is produced in various sizes necessary for various uses such as fax, scanning or printing? However, standards for paper size measurements exist in different countries and in different years. This led to the availability of paper sizes of different standards and created a lot of confusion. Most photocopiers in Malaysia use paper measurements that follow international standards in their systems. This can reduce confusion and help in standardizing the size of the paper supplied in the market. Let’s explore the paper sizes that follow the international standards that are often used in Malaysia. International Standard Paper Size The international paper size standard is ISO 216 and was originally based on the German DIN 476 standard. The ISO 216 document sets international standards for paper measurement in most countries around the world, except in Canada, the United States, Mexico and the Dominican Republic. The internationally commonly used paper size consists of THREE main series, namely Series A, Series B and Series C. Series A Paper Size Size Series A paper size is one of the most commonly used paper sizes for in offices to produce documents, reports and presentations. The paper size decreases in dimensions when moving to a higher number up to the highest number on the scale, which is A10. This means the A0 paper size is the largest, while A10 has the smallest paper size. A sheet of paper in series A, when folded in two, will result in a smaller next size. For example, the A3 paper size, when folded in half, will be the size of A4 paper. Series A Paper Size Table (mm & inch) Name Paper Size (mm) Paper Size (inches) A0 841 x 1189 mm 33.1 x 46.8 in A1 594 x 841 mm 23.4 x 33.1 in A2 420 x 594 mm 16.5 x 23.4 in A3 297 x 420 mm 11.7 x 16.5 in A4 210 x 297 mm 8.3 x 11.7 in A5 148 x 210 mm 5.8 x 8.3 in A6 105 x 148 mm 4.1 x 5.8 in A7 74 x 105 mm 2.9 x 4.1 in A8 52 x 74 mm 2.0 x 2.9 in A9 37 x 52 mm 1.5 x 2.0 in A10 26 x 37 mm 1.0 x 1.5 in Photostat machine models that support Series A paper size This is a list of Ricoh & Fuji Xerox photocopier machines that support various paper sizes of series A.

This is why the paper size of series B is between 2 sizes of series A. For example, the paper size B4 is located between the sizes A3 and A4. If you need a paper size smaller than A3, but wider than A4, you can use the B4 paper size. Series B also follows the same concept as series A where the size shrinks to the next size when folded in two. For example, the B3 paper size is half of B2, B2 is half of B1, and so on. Series B Paper Size Table (mm & inch) Name Paper Size (mm) Paper Size (inches) B0 1000 x 1414 mm 39.4 x 55.7 in B1 707 x 1000 mm 27.8 x 39.4 in B2 500 x 707 mm 19.7 x 27.8 in B3 353 x 500 mm 13.9 x 19.7 in B4 250 x 353 mm 9.8 x 13.9 in B5 176 x 250 mm 6.9 x 9.8 in B6 125 x 176 mm 4.9 x 6.9 in B7 88 x 125 mm 3.5 x 4.9 in B8 62 x 88 mm 2.4 x 3.5 in B9 44 x 62 mm 1.7 x 2.4 in B10 31 x 44 mm 1.2 x 1.7 in Photostat machine model that supports B series paper size B series paper is also widely used in most of the latest photostat machines such as the following models.

Toner: to shake or not to shake?

Remember that commercial from a few years back where the fresh-faced office intern tells a co-worker that the printer is out of toner, is advised to “shake it”, and then shakes the printer instead? Despite this newbie mistake, it’s pretty common knowledge among office environments that shaking the toner cartridge will help squeeze out a little more ink. Let’s face it, copier and printer toner can be expensive. So why not do everything you can to save your company from undue print costs? As it turns out, there is a scenario where shaking the toner to extend its life can be a very costly mistake, and it boils down to which of the two types of toner cartridges your machine has. Laser Printers The first type is the one you are likely most familiar with from your laser printers. Typically, a big black rectangular cartridge. This cartridge holds the toner as well as two other important components called the drum and the developer. Large Printers and MFPs The second type is what is found in most large printers and MFPs. In these machines, it is more cost-effective to have the toner, drum, and developer as three separate components. The toner component will typically look like a translucent plastic tube allowing you to see the toner inside. If you have the second type, and your toner container is separate from the developer, it can be risky to shake extra toner from a near-empty bottle. The reason is because the developer component has the ability to continue producing prints even after the toner bottle is completely empty. This ruins the developer, which is a very costly component. With this type of toner container, it is important to replace the toner when the machine tells you to. Otherwise you could damage the machine. With the all-in-one cartridge, however, you are replacing all three components everytime you replace your toner, so draining it dry is totally fine. Shake to your heart’s content! Unless, of course, you are wearing a really nice suit. See more savings with managed print services and use the cost- cutting to invest in other aspects of of your business. *Other Model Available RICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296

The Environmental Impact of Copier Machines and How to Reduce It

Copier machines are devices that can make copies of documents, images, or texts by using various methods and materials, such as toner, ink, paper, electricity, and heat. Copier machines are widely used in offices, schools, libraries, and homes, as they provide convenience, efficiency, and productivity. However, copier machines also have a significant environmental impact, as they consume natural resources, generate waste, and emit greenhouse gases. The environmental impact of copier machines can be measured by the following indicators: Energy consumption: Copier machines use electricity to operate and perform various functions, such as copying, printing, scanning, faxing, and emailing. Copier machines can consume a large amount of electricity, especially when they are left on standby mode, which can account for up to 70% of their total energy use. According to a study by the U.S. Department of Energy, copier machines in the U.S. consumed about 23 billion kWh of electricity in 2010, which is equivalent to the annual electricity use of 2 million households. Paper consumption: Copier machines use paper as the main medium for copying and printing documents, images, or texts. Copier machines can use a lot of paper, especially when they produce multiple copies, duplex copies, or colour copies. According to a report by the World Wildlife Fund, copier machines in the world used about 400 million tonnes of paper in 2015, which is equivalent to the annual paper production of 80 million trees. Toner consumption: Copier machines use toner as the main material for creating or reproducing images or texts on paper or other media. Toner is a fine powder that contains carbon, plastic, and pigments. Toner can be harmful to the environment, as it can contain toxic substances, such as heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, and ozone. According to a study by the University of California, copier machines in the U.S. used about 100,000 tonnes of toner in 2010, which is equivalent to the annual toner production of 20,000 barrels of oil. Waste generation: Copier machines generate waste as a result of their operation and maintenance. Waste can include paper, toner, ink, cartridges, drums, fusers, and other parts. Waste can also include packaging, manuals, and cords. Waste can be harmful to the environment, as it can occupy landfills, pollute water, and release greenhouse gases. According to a report by the Environmental Protection Agency, copier machines in the U.S. generated about 1.2 million tonnes of waste in 2010, which is equivalent to the annual waste generation of 240,000 cars. Greenhouse gas emission: Copier machines emit greenhouse gases as a consequence of their energy consumption, paper consumption, toner consumption, and waste generation. Greenhouse gases can include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Greenhouse gases can contribute to global warming, climate change, and environmental degradation. According to a study by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, copier machines in the world emitted about 150 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2015, which is equivalent to the annual carbon dioxide emission of 30 million cars. The environmental impact of copier machines can be reduced by adopting various strategies and practices, such as: Energy saving: Copier machines can save energy by using energy-efficient models, such as Energy Star certified copiers, which can use up to 50% less electricity than conventional copiers. Copier machines can also save energy by using power-saving modes, such as sleep mode, which can reduce the electricity use by up to 90% when the copier is not in use. Copier machines can also save energy by using renewable energy sources, such as solar panels, wind turbines, or hydroelectric generators, which can provide clean and green electricity for the copier. Paper saving: Copier machines can save paper by using paper-efficient models, such as duplex copiers, which can print on both sides of the paper, reducing the paper use by up to 50%. Copier machines can also save paper by using paper-saving modes, such as draft mode, which can print with less ink and lower quality, reducing the paper use by up to 10%. Copier machines can also save paper by using recycled paper, which can be made from post-consumer or post-industrial paper waste, reducing the paper use by up to 40%. Toner saving: Copier machines can save toner by using toner-efficient models, such as laser copiers, which can use less toner than inkjet copiers, reducing the toner use by up to 30%. Copier machines can also save toner by using toner-saving modes, such as eco mode, which can print with less toner and lower density, reducing the toner use by up to 20%. Copier machines can also save toner by using refillable or remanufactured toner cartridges, which can be refilled or reused from empty or used cartridges, reducing the toner use by up to 60%. Waste reduction: Copier machines can reduce waste by using waste-reducing models, such as multifunction copiers, which can perform multiple functions, such as copying, printing, scanning, faxing, and emailing, reducing the waste from multiple devices. Copier machines can also reduce waste by using waste-reducing modes, such as preview mode, which can show the image or text before copying or printing, reducing the waste from errors or mistakes. Copier machines can also reduce waste by using recyclable or biodegradable waste materials, such as paper, toner, cartridges, drums, fusers, and other parts, which can be recycled or decomposed by natural processes, reducing the waste from landfills or incinerators. Greenhouse gas mitigation: Copier machines can mitigate greenhouse gas emission by using greenhouse gas-mitigating models, such as low-emission copiers, which can emit less greenhouse gases than high-emission copiers, reducing the greenhouse gas emission by up to 40%. Copier machines can also mitigate greenhouse gas emission by using greenhouse gas-mitigating modes, such as carbon-neutral mode, which can offset the greenhouse gas emission by supporting environmental projects, such as tree planting, renewable energy, or energy efficiency, reducing the greenhouse gas emission by up to 100%. Copier machines can also mitigate greenhouse gas emission by using greenhouse gas-mitigating materials, such as organic or biobased toner, which can be made from…

The History and Evolution of Duplicating Machines

Duplicating machines are devices that can make copies of documents, images, or texts by using various methods and materials. They have been used for centuries to disseminate information, preserve records, and facilitate communication. The history and evolution of duplicating machines can be traced back to the following stages: Manual copying: The earliest form of duplicating machines was manual copying, which involved writing or drawing by hand on paper, parchment, or other surfaces. Manual copying was slow, laborious, and prone to errors. Some examples of manual copying techniques are calligraphy, illumination, and woodblock printing. Mechanical copying: The next stage of duplicating machines was mechanical copying, which involved using machines or tools to transfer or imprint images or texts on paper or other media. Mechanical copying was faster, easier, and more accurate than manual copying. Some examples of mechanical copying devices are typewriters, mimeographs, hectographs, and lithographs. Electrical copying: The third stage of duplicating machines was electrical copying, which involved using electricity or magnetism to create or reproduce images or texts on paper or other media. Electrical copying was more efficient, versatile, and reliable than mechanical copying. Some examples of electrical copying machines are telegraphs, telephones, photocopiers, and fax machines. Digital copying: The current stage of duplicating machines is digital copying, which involves using computers or electronic devices to store, process, or transmit images or texts in binary code. Digital copying is more convenient, flexible, and secure than electrical copying. Some examples of digital copying devices are scanners, printers, email, and cloud storage. Duplicating machines have evolved over time to meet the changing needs and demands of society, culture, and economy. They have played a significant role in the development of education, science, art, literature, politics, and media. They have also raised various issues and challenges, such as intellectual property, privacy, security, and ethics. Duplicating machines are still widely used today, although they have been improved and integrated with other technologies, such as artificial intelligence, biometrics, and holography.

The Future of Colour Photocopiers: From CMYK to RGB

Colour photocopiers are devices that can reproduce colour images or texts on paper or other media by using a combination of four primary colours: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK). CMYK is a subtractive colour model, which means that the colours are mixed by subtracting light from a white background. CMYK is widely used in printing and copying industries, as it can produce a wide range of colours and shades. However, CMYK also has some limitations and disadvantages, such as: Colour accuracy: CMYK cannot reproduce all the colours that are visible to the human eye, especially bright and saturated colours. This can result in colour mismatch or distortion between the original and the copied image. For example, CMYK cannot reproduce the colour green as vividly as RGB (red, green, blue), which is an additive colour model that uses light to create colours. Colour consistency: CMYK can vary in colour quality and appearance depending on the type and condition of the paper, toner, and copier machine. Different paper materials can absorb or reflect light differently, affecting the colour balance and contrast. Different toner brands can have different chemical compositions and densities, affecting the colour saturation and intensity. Different copier machines can have different settings and calibrations, affecting the colour alignment and resolution. Cost and environmental impact: CMYK requires four separate toner cartridges, which can be expensive and wasteful. Toner cartridges can run out quickly, especially when copying large or complex images. Toner cartridges can also contain harmful substances, such as carbon black, which can pollute the air and water. Toner cartridges can also be difficult to recycle or dispose of, as they can contain plastic, metal, and ink. The future of colour photocopiers may lie in the transition from CMYK to RGB, which is a more advanced and efficient colour model. RGB is based on the principle of additive colour mixing, which means that the colours are created by adding light from three primary colours: red, green, and blue. RGB can produce more colours and shades than CMYK, as well as brighter and more vivid colours. RGB is also the standard colour model for digital devices, such as computers, smartphones, and cameras. Some of the potential benefits and advantages of RGB colour photocopiers are: Colour accuracy: RGB can reproduce colours more faithfully and accurately than CMYK, as it can match the colours of the original image more closely. RGB can also display colours that are impossible to create with CMYK, such as neon colours, metallic colours, and holographic colours. RGB can also enhance the colour depth and detail of the copied image, making it more realistic and appealing. Colour consistency: RGB can maintain colour quality and appearance regardless of the type and condition of the paper, toner, and copier machine. RGB can adapt to different paper materials, as it can adjust the colour brightness and contrast according to the paper reflectance and absorption. RGB can also use fewer and simpler toner components, as it can generate colours by modulating the light intensity and frequency. RGB can also use more sophisticated and precise copier mechanisms, such as lasers, LEDs, or OLEDs, which can improve the colour alignment and resolution. Cost and environmental impact: RGB can reduce the cost and environmental impact of colour copying, as it can use less and greener toner materials. RGB can save toner consumption, as it can create colours with less ink and more light. RGB can also use more eco-friendly toner substances, such as organic or biodegradable pigments, which can minimize the environmental harm and health risks. RGB can also facilitate the recycling and disposal of toner cartridges, as they can be made of more recyclable and reusable materials, such as paper, glass, or metal. RGB colour photocopiers are still in the research and development stage, and they face some technical and practical challenges, such as: Compatibility and standardization: RGB colour photocopiers need to be compatible and standardized with other devices and systems, such as digital cameras, scanners, monitors, and printers. RGB colour photocopiers need to have a common colour space and format, such as sRGB or Adobe RGB, which can ensure the colour consistency and compatibility across different devices and platforms. RGB colour photocopiers also need to have a common colour profile and calibration, which can ensure the colour accuracy and quality across different machines and settings. Performance and reliability: RGB colour photocopiers need to have a high performance and reliability, as they need to cope with the high demands and expectations of colour copying. RGB colour photocopiers need to have a fast and smooth colour processing and output, which can handle large and complex images without compromising the colour speed or resolution. RGB colour photocopiers also need to have a durable and stable colour operation and maintenance, which can prevent colour fading, bleeding, or smudging. RGB colour photocopiers are expected to be the next generation of colour copying technology, as they can offer more colour possibilities and benefits than CMYK. RGB colour photocopiers can revolutionize the colour copying industry, as they can provide more colour accuracy, consistency, and efficiency. RGB colour photocopiers can also transform the colour copying experience, as they can create more colour diversity, creativity, and expression.

They are designed to save space, time, money, and energy for small businesses that need to handle various document-related tasks. Multifunction photocopiers offer many benefits for small businesses, such as: Cost-efficiency: Multifunction photocopiers can reduce the cost of purchasing, maintaining, and operating multiple devices, such as separate copiers, printers, scanners, and fax machines. They can also lower the cost of consumables, such as paper, toner, and ink, by using duplex printing, automatic document feeder, and eco-friendly modes. According to a study by IDC, multifunction photocopiers can save up to 40% of the total cost of ownership compared to single-function devices. Productivity: Multifunction photocopiers can improve the productivity and efficiency of small businesses by streamlining and simplifying the workflow of document management. They can perform multiple tasks simultaneously, such as copying and scanning, or printing and faxing, without compromising the quality or speed. They can also support wireless and cloud-based connectivity, allowing users to access, share, and print documents from any device and location.

How Xerography Revolutionized the Office and Changed the World

Xerography, also known as electrophotography, is a process of copying images by using electrostatic charges and dry toner. It was invented by Chester Carlson in 1938 and commercialized by the Xerox Corporation in the 1950s. Xerography revolutionized the office and changed the world by enabling fast, cheap, and reliable reproduction of documents, images, and texts. Before xerography, the most common methods of copying documents were carbon paper, mimeograph, and photostat. These methods were either slow, messy, expensive, or low-quality. Carbon paper could only make one or two copies at a time, mimeograph required stencils and ink, and photostat used photographic film and chemicals. Xerography, on the other hand, could make multiple copies of any original document without any intermediate steps or consumables. It was also much faster, cleaner, and cheaper than the previous methods. Xerography had a profound impact on various aspects of society, culture, and economy. It enabled the mass production and distribution of information, such as books, magazines, newspapers, flyers, posters, and reports. It facilitated the communication and collaboration of people across distances and organizations, such as businesses, governments, schools, and libraries. It also empowered the creativity and expression of individuals and groups, such as artists, writers, activists, and protesters. Xerography was a key factor in the development of the information age, the knowledge economy, and the digital revolution. Xerography is still widely used today, although it has been improved and integrated with other technologies, such as laser printing, digital scanning, and network connectivity. Xerography remains one of the most important inventions of the 20th century, and one of the most influential innovations in the history of office and information technology.
