Suppliers contact you, never more than three
All brands covered
How it works
Most businesses take one quote and hope it’s fair. Comparing three is what moves the price.
STEP 02
We match your suppliers
A specialist confirms your requirements, then matches you to up to three suppliers who service your area and want work at your volume.
USUALLY WITHIN 1 BUSINESS HOUR
Every major brand, one comparison
We’re not tied to a single manufacturer, so the three quotes you get can span different brands entirely and that’s usually where the saving is.
Which machine you actually need
Most businesses over-buy because a dealer quoted the machine they had in stock. Here’s what each class is for, so you can tell whether a quote makes sense before you sign it.
| Class | What it’s for | Suits | Watch for |
|---|---|---|---|
| A3 multifunction copier The office workhorse  |
Prints, copies, scans and finishes at A3 and A4, with trays that hold reams rather than sheets and a service agreement behind it. This is what people mean by “the photocopier”. | 5+ people, roughly 1,000 pages a month and up | Finishing options you’ll never use, stapling, booklet making and hole punching all add to the monthly figure |
| A4 office printer Desktop or workgroup  |
Cheaper to buy and small enough to sit on a bench, but cost per page climbs as volume rises. | 1–4 people, light printing, or a second device on another floor | Consumable cost, a cheap machine with expensive toner can cost more over three years than a leased A3 |
| Production & wide format Specialist  |
Roll-fed wide format for plans, drawings and signage, or production devices for an in-house print room. | Architects, engineers, print rooms, high-volume in-house work | Fewer suppliers cover it, so comparing quotes matters more here, not less |
What businesses actually pay
Nobody else in this category will show you a number before you hand over your details. Here’s the range we see, so you can sanity-check any quote you’re holding right now.
| Device speed | Typical lease / rental | Typical purchase | Cost per page |

Mono 0.8–1.1c Colour 8–11c |

| 40 – 50 ppm | $240 – $380 /mth | $11,000 – $20,000 |
Mono 0.6–0.8c Colour 7–9c |
| 50 – 60 ppm | $330 – $520 /mth | $16,000 – $30,000 |
Mono 0.6–0.8c Colour 6.5–8.5c |
| 60+ ppm | $480 – $900+ /mth | $24,000 – $50,000+ |
Mono 0.6–0.7c Colour 6–8c |
Indicative only. Ranges reflect quotes we’ve seen for business-grade A3 multifunction devices and vary with brand, finishing options, contract term, service inclusions and colour ratio. Your quotes will be specific to your requirements.
