Copier leasing in Paramus, NJ

Better known for the Route 4 and Route 17 retail corridors than for offices, but the professional tenancies behind them — accountancy, insurance, medical and dental practices — are a substantial small-office market in their own right.

What offices in Paramus are actually printing

The commercial base here leans toward retail head offices, accounting, dental and medical practices and insurance, concentrated around Route 4, Route 17 and Garden State Plaza area.

Mostly smaller A4 and light A3 fleets where the monthly payment is small enough that nobody scrutinises the click charges. That is precisely where a mis-sized colour allowance quietly does the most damage over five years.

Before you sign anything

Three things are worth doing in this order, and none of them require talking to me:

  1. Work out your true cost per page. The monthly payment is not the cost. Overage and a separately billed service charge usually account for a meaningful share of the bill, and nobody quotes the blended figure.
  2. Find your notice deadline. Most agreements renew automatically unless written notice lands in a window that shuts months before the term ends. This is the single most expensive thing to get wrong.
  3. Understand what a buyout figure contains. It is three or four separate things, and they are not equally negotiable.

Why go through a broker rather than straight to a dealer?

A dealer rep carries a quota and one line card. I don’t carry a quota, and my job is to size the machine to your actual volume, negotiate the term and the click rate, and tell you when the deal in front of you is a bad one — including when the right answer is to keep what you already have.

I’m not an authorised dealer for any manufacturer. I place orders through dealers who are, and they handle install and service. What you get from me is the scoping, the negotiating and someone who reads the contract on your side of the table.
