For most Australian businesses, leasing a printer is more cost-effective than buying outright.

Leasing costs from $189 per month with all maintenance, toner and support included, while buying outright ties up significant capital and adds ongoing repair and toner costs.

Most businesses typically save 20 to 30%* over five years by leasing, and lease payments are generally tax deductible as an operating expense.

Printer leasing is a financing arrangement where businesses pay from $189 per month, custom quoted above that, to use commercial printers, copiers, and multifunction devices. Managed print services add fleet management, automatic toner delivery, proactive maintenance, usage analytics, and priority support.

Most businesses choose a 3 to 5 year term. Per-page rates are quoted alongside each lease based on the device, term and your monthly print volume.

LeasemyPrinter offers both services with Kyocera, HP, Toshiba, Brother, and OKI equipment across all Australian states and territories.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to lease a printer in Australia?

Printer leasing starts from $189 per month, with custom quoted pricing for higher volume or enterprise equipment. Per-page rates are quoted with each lease based on the device, term and your monthly print volume. All quotes include maintenance and toner.

Is it better to lease or buy a printer for business?

Printer leasing suits Australian businesses that want low upfront costs, included maintenance and toner, predictable monthly budgeting, and the option to upgrade equipment during the term. Buying outright suits stable, high-volume users who keep equipment long term and can absorb out of pocket maintenance and toner costs. Most businesses save 20 to 30%* on total cost of ownership by leasing.

What is included in a managed print service?

A managed print service (MPS) in Australia includes print fleet management across all devices, automatic toner delivery before supplies run out, proactive maintenance with remote device monitoring, monthly usage analytics and cost reporting, print security monitoring for compliance, and priority technical support with same-day response. LeasemyPrinter bundles all six into a single fixed monthly fee.

How long are printer lease terms in Australia?

Lease terms are typically 3 to 5 years. Most Australian businesses choose 60 month terms to align with typical photocopier lifespans.

What printer brands are available for leasing?

LeasemyPrinter offers Kyocera, HP, Toshiba, Brother, and the OKI Pro 1050 production printer across Australia. Kyocera ECOSYS and TASKalfa models are the most popular for reliability and low per-page running costs. HP LaserJet Enterprise suits offices needing advanced security features. Toshiba e-STUDIO offers A3 colour at competitive rates. The OKI Pro 1050 is available specifically for colour-critical and high-volume production work.

How quickly can I get a leased printer installed?

Most installations happen within 5-7 business days of signing. Same day delivery is available in metro areas for urgent requirements.

Can I cancel a printer lease early?

Early termination is possible but may incur fees. We recommend discussing upgrade options instead, which can reset your term at competitive rates. Contact us for a free quote on upgrading your current lease.

What happens to my lease if my business shrinks or I need fewer printers?

If your team or print volume drops, we restructure rather than penalise. Options include downgrading to a smaller device at a lower monthly rate, removing devices from a multi-printer fleet, or pausing the upgrade clock until volumes recover. We assess each situation case by case so a downturn does not lock you into oversized equipment.

What credit checks or trading history do I need to lease a printer?

Most Australian businesses with at least 12 months trading history and a clean ABN credit profile qualify for printer leasing through our finance partners. Newer businesses, sole traders, and not-for-profits are still considered, often with a director's guarantee or a slightly higher monthly rate. We assess applications without obligation and can usually confirm pre-approval within one business day.

What if the printer breaks down on day 1 or in the first week?

Every lease includes professional installation, network setup, and on-site testing before your team uses the device. If a fault appears in the first week, our technicians attend at no charge, escalate the manufacturer warranty, and supply a loan unit if the repair takes more than one business day. The Australian Consumer Law guarantees of acceptable quality and fitness for purpose apply on top of these contractual commitments.

Why lease through LeasemyPrinter instead of buying from Officeworks, Bunnings, or JB Hi-Fi?

Retail outlets like Officeworks, Bunnings, and JB Hi-Fi sell consumer-grade printers outright, with toner, repairs, and replacement billed separately. LeasemyPrinter supplies commercial-grade Kyocera, HP, Toshiba, and Brother MFPs designed for 50,000+ pages a month, plus all maintenance, toner, and on-site service in one fixed monthly fee. For any business printing more than a few hundred pages a week, the all-inclusive lease is typically cheaper over five years and removes the day-to-day admin of sourcing toner and booking repairs.

Are there hidden fees or extra charges at the end of the lease?

No. Your monthly payment covers equipment, all maintenance, parts, toner, and on-site support for the entire term. End-of-term options are written into the contract: return the equipment at no cost, upgrade to a newer device, or extend the lease month to month. We do not charge restocking fees, decommissioning fees, or final-period buy-out surprises. Auto-renewal clauses are disclosed up front and you can opt out by giving 30 days written notice before the renewal date.
