So I’ve recently taken over the Help Desk role at a small-mid level business.
Here we have a number of printers somewhere in between such as an HP 3700 is our newest one and printers like an HP LaserJet 5000, 4500 and other variations.
It seems like some of these printers are ageing and are experiencing frequent paper jams. On printer I printed the stats out on indicated at over 250,000 (Yes a quater million) pages had been printed on it.
So I guess my question is when it comes to pages printed, what’s a good lifespan of laser printer like this? Woudl it be equatable to a car where 250,000 miles would be more than expected, or seriously pushing it.
Or is it more like jsut getting started? Somewhere in between?
Desktop printers are pretty cheap and eaily replaceable. Some fo the larger copy/printer centers I’ve found are just 2-3 year leases.
Any recomendaions on researching price/durability and other important features in business class laser printers such as the ones above?
Thanks in adavance!
