“Reduce, Reuse, Recycle … Refurbish!”
What’s the story on refurbished print and copy devices? Here’s a hint: It has a very happy ending, for both your bottom line and good ol’ Mother Earth.
Instead of resorting to less expensive, yet less efficient printers, consider buying refurbished or reconditioned multifunction devices. They cost less and have a number of environmental benefits.
What Is A Refurbished Device?
Refurbished printers and copiers are devices that undergo intense cleaning, inspecting and repairing processes. Printer service companies and office equipment manufacturers put them on the market as cost-effective and eco-friendly solutions for managing document workflow.
Why Make The Refurbished Resolution?
- Decrease the toxic waste.
Printers and copiers contain chemicals, toxic metals and other hazardous materials that take a long time, sometimes hundreds of years, to decompose. When these devices are dumped, this non-biodegradable waste is dumped into the environment. Recycling and refurbishing provides much-needed solutions to this toxic effect and prevent millions of pounds of material from entering landfills each year.
- Conserve natural resources.
Refurbishing multifunction devices also cuts back on the need for raw materials to manufacture new devices.
- Trade in to save.
Many companies offer the option to trade in old printer for new ones. This is their eco-friendly attempt to keep printers out of landfills by recycling the parts.
What Are Some Refurbishing Recommendations?
1. Treat the purchasing process for a refurbished multifunction printer just as you would with a brand new device. Do your research: Read reviews, compare brands and models, check out specifications and juxtapose each printer’s features with your company’s output needs.
Xerox has an excellent refurbishing process. The devices are manufactured to meet original factory specifications, tested and quality-checked by Xerox technicians and then sealed with a warranty.
2. Always purchase refurbished devices directly from a manufacturer or dealer with a reliable reputation. Make sure it has a warranty from the manufacturer and all necessary parts are readily available. It’s also advisable to purchase from a printer service company that is willing to handle repairs if something goes wrong down the line.
3. As soon as it’s installed, examine and test the refurbished device. Assess all features, including copy functions, memory storage and both color and mono printing.
