Is the initial capital expense of your new copier the
single largest cost factor?
If you answered "yes" to this question, then
you need to read this chapter very carefully. In most cases, the initial outlay for
your new copier is only a small percentage of the total cost of owning a new copier over
its useful life. In this chapter, I will examine how a copier dealer will charge you
for supplies and maintenance on your new copier. Keep in mind that most copier
dealers and copier conglomerates make approximately 50% of their annual profits from
supplies and maintenance.
