Copier Lease vs. Buy: A Cost Breakdown for Canadian Businesses

Leasing and buying a copier can both make sense. The right choice depends on cash flow, expected use, equipment life, service requirements, and whether your business wants predictable monthly costs or ownership. Compare the complete cost over the same period before deciding.

Calculate the cost of buying

Include the purchase price, financing, maintenance, toner, parts, downtime, and eventual replacement. Ownership may suit businesses that can fund the purchase and manage service separately.

Calculate the cost of leasing

Add monthly payments, any upfront amount, included service, page charges, supplies, taxes, and end-of-term obligations. Read the agreement carefully and confirm what happens if your needs change.

Use real print volumes

Estimate monthly black-and-white and colour pages. Low-volume offices may not need a large multifunction device; high-volume teams should consider duty cycle, speed, finishing, and reliability.

Consider flexibility and risk

Buying can offer more control over the asset. Leasing can preserve upfront cash and make upgrades easier, but contract terms and total payments matter.

Compare like for like

Request quotes with the same device class, monthly volume, service coverage, toner assumptions, contract term, and end-of-term conditions.
