Yesterday, we posted a video article about “5 Tips on Buying Office Printers.” And in one of those tips, we mentioned the importance of knowing the printer’s total cost of ownership.

To start with, the total cost of ownership refers to the purchase price of the asset you brought plus its cost of operation. This is vital if you want to invest in the right office equipment without going over the budget. To give you a short breakdown, here’s a breakdown on how you should calculate a printer’s total cost of ownership.

Monochrome or black-and-white multifunction (MFP) laser printers are probably the most economical printers you can buy in the market, in terms of productivity and running costs.
