Multifunction printers come with so many features that it can be hard to decide which model is best for your office. If your business needs a multifunction printer, here are a few ways to narrow down the best model for your company’s printing needs.

Features and Abilities

Perhaps the most important things to look for in a multifunction printer are the very features that your employees need to use. Consider whether your multifunction printer needs the ability to run several functions at the same time to save working hours and get things done faster. Also, consider whether you will need any special binding done by your printer. Does your office send faxes often? It may help to make a list of features that you would like to have in a device before you shop for your printer.

The Size of the Device

Like other types of printers, multifunction printers come in a wide range of sizes. Many are highly compact models, they’re also larger ones that could store many more supplies. Think about the space you have available and how much room you have for your multifunction printer. Do you have a separate copier room, or will it need to fit into a cubicle?

Energy Usage

Every company wants to cut costs where they can these days. One area that you can cut costs in is often the utility bill. One way to get this lower is to use newer machines that are made to be more energy efficient. Old printers often used huge amounts of power, and they also generated so much heat that air-conditioning you had to be increased to make up for that heat.

If you want office utility bills lower, look for an energy star certified printer or another model type that has been shown to use less power. Newer models that use less power also generate less heat, and this helps keep rooms at a better temperature, and it requires less air conditioning to compensate for that heat. If you have multiple printers in the office, consider how much the company will save on utilities with each of these printers using far less power.
