Printer and Copier Leasing for Aged Care and NDIS Providers
A printer that breaks down when care plans or medication charts are needed can hold up care work for clients.
Pre configured A4 colour multifunction printer for care plans, medication charts and NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) documentation, with secure print release protecting client information and a service response built in so care work is never held up by a broken printer.
Before you enquire
Do I have to commit to a long contract?
You choose the term at the start, anywhere from 36 to 60 months.
There is no day, week or month by month arrangement.
What happens on the final month?
At the end you either upgrade, stay on the equipment already in place, or hand it back.
We contact you before the date so it is never missed, and the terms of whichever path you pick are confirmed in writing.
What if my printing needs change?
You can move up a device class or swap models during the term, once the change is quoted and agreed.
New equipment arrives within 10 business days of a confirmed order, installation included.
How much printing makes a lease worthwhile?
There is no minimum size.
The useful test is volume.
Above about 500 pages a month, one monthly set plan is normally simpler.
It covers maintenance, genuine toner and remote diagnostics, instead of buying cartridges and paying for callouts.
We are already leasing a printer. Can we still get a quote?
Yes, and it is a common position to be in.
We quote now and set the installation against your current lease end date, so there is no overlap and no outage.
Check your existing notice window early, because those dates are easy to miss.
Enquired on Monday and had a printer installed by Friday. Fast, easy, and exactly what we needed.

The print problems this setup is specified around
- ×
Care plans, medication charts, incident reports and NDIS service agreements carry sensitive personal and health information, so a device left unattended in a shared office is a genuine privacy exposure.
- ×
Roster changes, care plan reviews and incident reporting do not run on a fixed schedule, so print and scan demand swings through the week rather than sitting in one predictable block.
- ×
A broken printer during a roster change or a reporting deadline holds up staff who should be with clients, not waiting at a device.
- ×
Owned devices push toner, drum and service costs back onto a provider that is already managing tight budgets and its own reporting obligations.

Why an aged care or NDIS provider leases instead of buys
Maintenance and toner are inside the monthly fee, so coordinators are not chasing consumables or repair quotes while managing client care.
Next business day onsite service response Australia wide for confirmed service requests means a broken printer does not hold up medication charts or incident reporting.
Scan to encrypted folder is configured at install, giving your team a consistent way to file care documentation without extra IT setup.
A set monthly payment is easier to plan around than a large upfront purchase, particularly for a provider managing tight budgets.

How it works
One lease across the homes, the offices and head office
A provider rarely prints in one place. Care documentation moves between residential homes, community offices and head office, so the fleet is easier to run when every device sits under one agreement and one point of contact.

Frequently asked questions
What printer suits an aged care or NDIS provider?
A single A4 colour multifunction device at 35 to 45 pages per minute covers most single site providers, handling care plans, medication charts, incident reports and NDIS service agreements at 6,000 to 15,000 pages per month.
Head office or multi site providers with heavier reporting volume are better served by an A3 colour MFP.
How does the lease help with privacy obligations for client and health information?
Devices we lease for care providers are specified with a self encrypting hard drive on supported models, secure print PIN release and automatic data overwrite between jobs, so care plans and medication charts only print once a staff member authenticates at the device.
This supports the safeguards providers put in place under the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles, and for NDIS providers under the NDIS Practice Standards, though the provider remains responsible for its own compliance obligations.
Can the lease cover more than one site or house?
Yes.
One master lease can cover a head office plus one or more residential homes or community offices, with consolidated billing and one renewal date.
Brands available include Kyocera, HP, Toshiba and Brother.
What happens if the printer breaks down during a shift?
Log the fault and the first response is same business day phone and remote support, Monday to Friday, where jams and consumable issues are worked through.
If a technician is needed, confirmed service requests get next business day onsite response Australia wide.
For a repair longer than a day, ask about a loaner device when logging the fault.
