Printer ink: costing you more than Dom Pérignon?

Printer ink: costing you more than Dom Pérignon?

When Gestetner closed its offices and made one man redundant it did churches a great big favour.

Nigel Page went on to launch Apple Office Equipment, specialising in reducing the cost of printing for churches and charities. Now, 27 years later, his company leads the way in auditing the way photocopiers are being used and suggesting cheaper and more efficient alternatives.

‘Some printing devices are expensive to run,’ he said. ‘Our audit makes sure organisations are not paying above the odds for ink, toner, or the use of a particular machine. A national newspaper recently pointed out that printing ink can be more expensive than Dom Pérignon champagne. That is perfectly true. We recommend the best machine for the setting and the most efficient way of using it. We often find churches and charities have the printer set at colour when it is totally unnecessary. There are ways to ensure the machine only prints in black unless a code is put in to allow the user to switch to colour.’

With a fully-trained team of technicians available to deliver a high quality of friendly service – suitably protected in these days of Covid-19 – Nigel’s promise is that all their machines have been through extensive testing before delivery, to ensure that they reach the customer at a high standard. And he can also offer various purchasing and leasing options including the company’s Apple Rental Agreement.

‘We have no tie-ins, no contracts, no hidden costs – just honest ethical trading with friendly advice and expert help,’ he said. ‘We will miss CRE at Sandown Park. We love meeting old customers and making new friends. It’s a great meeting place for those looking for a better way to do everything.’
