01What we do

Everything an office print fleet needs, from one team.

We supply the machines, set them up, keep them running and finance them, so there is one number to call for all of it.

  1. 01

    New Canon machines

    Colour and black-and-white multifunction printers, from desktop A4 to production colour, specified for your volumes and your network.

  2. 02

    Approved refurbished

    Machines we originally sold and serviced ourselves, rebuilt from the chassis up and backed by the same service as new.

  3. 03

    Service and repairs

    Engineers who aim to reach you within four hours, carry the common parts, and get anything else from the manufacturer by 10am the next day.

  4. 04

    Toner and supplies

    Genuine toner and parts from a range of over 18,000 consumables, delivered on routine service visits so you don't run out.

  5. 05

    Finance and print plans

    Buy outright, lease on fixed payments, or pay per print on one plan that covers the machine and its servicing.

  6. 06

    Print and document software

    Canon uniFLOW for secure printing and cost tracking, plus scanning and document workflows set up on your network.

02How we work

Specified for your office, not taken off a shelf.

Before we recommend anything, we visit. Print volumes, who prints what, where the machine has to fit and how it reaches your network all shape the specification. Access matters too: a listed building or a narrow stairwell changes what will fit.

  1. Step 1

    Free site survey

    We look at how much you print, who prints it, where the machine will live and how it connects to your network.

  2. Step 2

    One clear proposal

    A single recommendation, configured and priced, with purchase, lease and print-plan options side by side.

  3. Step 3

    Installed and set up

    We deliver and connect the machine, set up scanning and secure printing, and show your team how it works.

  4. Step 4

    Looked after

    Routine service visits, toner delivered as you need it, and engineers who know your machine.

03Service and support

Response measured in hours, not days.

The industry norm is an engineer within eight working hours. We aim for four, and we aim to fix the fault on that first visit. Our target is to close 95% of calls within four hours.

  • Parts in the van

    Engineers carry the common parts. Anything else comes from the manufacturer by 10am the next day.

  • A person answers

    No call centre. Your call is logged by someone who knows your account, and the managing director is a phone call away.

  • The same faces

    The same engineer and account manager look after your machines, year after year.

  • Toner on every visit

    Supplies arrive with the engineer on routine visits, so you don't have to keep track of them.

04Machines

New or refurbished, chosen on merit.

We recommend whichever machine fits the job and the budget. Unsure how much you need? A refurbished machine is often the better-value way to find out.

New

The current Canon range

imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX multifunction printers for the office, from compact A4 models to 70 ppm A3 machines, plus imagePRESS for professional colour.

  • A4 and A3
  • Colour and black and white
  • Print, copy, scan and send
  • Finishing and booklet making

Refurbished

Approved, with a known history

Every refurbished machine we sell was originally sold and serviced by us, so we know its full history. We strip it to the chassis, replace worn parts and back it with the same warranty and service as new.

  • Full service history
  • Rebuilt from the chassis
  • Warranty included
  • Often richly configured

Ask which machine suits you

05Finance

Pay for it in the way that suits your budget.

We price the whole contract, not just the cost per copy. A cheap machine set up wrong can cost more over its life than the right one.

  1. 01 · Simplest on paper

    Outright purchase

    Own the machine from day one, with a service agreement to keep it running.

  2. 02 · Fixed monthly cost

    Lease

    Fixed payments over an agreed term, so you can budget years ahead. Software licences can be included in the lease.

  3. 03 · Pay for what you print

    Total Volume Print Plan

    One charge per print covers the machine and its maintenance over one to five years. Paper is the only other cost, and the plan ends early if you reach your agreed volume.

06Clients

Most of our clients have been with us for years.

We keep clients by being straight with them: clear contracts, no hidden charges, and the same people looking after them from one renewal to the next.

  • A client since 1988, now with more than 40 machines installed.

    Design and communications

  • On its fourth generation of ABM machines.

    Accountancy, London

  • Began with one five-star hotel in Central London, which referred us to hotel groups across the UK.

    Hospitality

  • Over half a million copies a month. Response times went from up to three days to around two hours.

    Digital print

  • Needed a nationwide four-hour response, and renewed for a second term.

    Charitable trust

  • We untangled their existing contracts before recommending a single machine.
