Hi all. We’ve offered a sizable copier/printer since we opened in 2008. HEAVY
usage. It could be that once you have it, they’ll use it. We can’t afford to
offer prints/copies for free, but we do generally earn a revenue that washes
out that monthly lease cost.
I find the following use print a lot:
- marketing/PR folks.
- writers
- lawyers
- real estate
- finance/accounting/bookkeeping
I don’t think printing is evil, and it’s not a free lunch. Balance your policy
accordingly.
