How Much to Lease a Printer in Australia?

The published $160 a month ex GST entry tier covers the equipment, professional installation, all break fix maintenance, and toner consumables for the contract term.

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

Larger fleets and colour A3 boxes scale upward from this rung, but the entry band is what most small offices land on.

Most Australian businesses choose a 3 to 5 year lease term because the monthly rate is keenest at 60 months and the cycle aligns with normal office equipment refresh.

A predictable monthly figure replaces unpredictable repair, toner, and downtime bills that surface on owned hardware after year two.

Upgrades inside the term are usually possible by re flexing the contract, useful when team size or print volume shifts.

Owned printers generate a stream of separate invoices: callout fees on each break fix visit, toner orders, drum kits, parts on top of labour, and downtime when the device sits idle waiting for a part.

A lease folds the device, scheduled service, parts, and consumables into one monthly figure that the finance team can budget against without surprise.

The saving is in the predictability and the bundled service supply chain, not in chasing individual line items across multiple suppliers.

LeasemyPrinter quotes as a direct provider rather than a comparison service, so a single quote covers the device, scheduled service, and consumables from one accountable team.

Equipment class is the largest driver.

An A4 mono workhorse sits at one end of the curve and an A3 colour production unit sits at the other.

Term length sets the trade off between rate and flexibility.

The monthly figure is keenest at 60 months, while a 36 month term preserves room to refresh the equipment sooner.

Monthly print volume and your mono to colour mix decide the device tier, because higher volume needs a bigger engine built for that duty cycle.

Those three inputs are why this page shows a monthly range per device class rather than one flat national price.

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.
