The main manufacturers in the color copier market include Xerox, Minolta and Ricoh, with other suppliers simply branding other manufacturers' machines. The color copier market is growing, fuelled by the growing interest in colour in the office and home, the success of the top makers and the increase in the number of players in the market. Canon dominates the UK color copier market with a 35.2% share, followed by Xerox with 22.2% and Ricoh with 14.3%. Most color copiers are in the price range 10,000-28,000 pounds sterling.

Cost of ownership

Article Abstract:

The price of a high volume copier is only the first expense associated with photocopying equipment and may account for only a small part of the total cost. A major outlay is copier paper and this can be reduced by organising efficient ways to reduce paper usage, such as using both sides of the paper, reducing text and using recycled paper. Other costs that should be taken into account include service agreements and breakdowns.

Evaluating your needs

Article Abstract:

The first step when considering purchasing a copier is to analyze copy requirements. One of the simplest ways of assessing requirements is to decide on an optimum monthly copy volume and check it against manufacturers' recommended copy volumes. Any assessment should also include how documents are handled within a company so that the best mix of copiers and printers is provided.
