[Michlib-l] Printer/Copier Contracts

Greetings, Library Minds! We've recently seen a big price increase for both our black & white and color copies. Our printer is 8 years old, works very well but it appears the maintenance agreement is going up because of the unit's age. I'm wondering what the going (charged-to-you) rate is for b/w and color copies, and if you own or are leasing your machine(s). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. This is my first possible printer purchase; who knew printers could be so complicated?! ;) Thanks, in advance! -- Sharon Crotser-Toy Director *Watervliet District Library* 333 N.
