How Much Does It Cost to Lease an Office Printer in Australia?

Why colour-heavy printing moves the device tier

Mono printing runs on a single black toner and a relatively long-life drum, which keeps entry tier devices economical for text heavy work.

Colour printing uses four toners and more complex consumables, which is why colour heavy volume moves the device selection to a higher tier built for that duty cycle.

Quocirca Print Services 2024 benchmarks Australian managed print click rates at around 0.8 cents per mono page and roughly 6 cents per A4 colour page for SME volume bands.

That industry figure describes the wider market, not how LeasemyPrinter bills: toner, parts and service labour sit inside the monthly set plan, and you only buy paper.

A managed lease is priced on the device tier that matches your mono and colour mix, so the monthly set plan already accounts for colour heavy printing rather than tracking it after the fact.

What sits inside the $160 per month office tier

The $160 per month office printer entry tier covers the device, installation, break fix labour, parts, and toner for the contract term.

It is benchmarked against Kyocera Australia product specifications for A4 mono and small workgroup A3 multifunction units.

There is no separate per page rate and no page allowance to track: paper is the only running cost outside the monthly set plan.

Term length and equipment selection

Most Australian offices choose a 3 to 5 year term to secure the keenest monthly figure and align with the typical office equipment refresh cycle.

Equipment selection ranges from A4 mono workhorses through A3 colour multifunction devices, and the lease line scales with the box selected.

Upgrades inside the term are negotiable when team size or print volume changes materially.
