Your copier is an everyday use item in your office, and the machine really works on-demand to make your company productive, your employees efficient, and your business successful. If you think about it, your copier is a critical piece of communication for your entire business.
So, you want to get the most out of your investment. Keeping copier maintenance as a regular to-do will help your copier stay operational, efficient, and working longer. Although it’s simple, it’s worth it to protect essential business equipment.
Internal Procedures and Simple Fixes
There are a few easy things that you and your team can do to make sure your copier stays on point. Here are some ideas:
- Use the right paper and toner – quality actually matters!
- If you see streaks or spots on the output, clean the glass.
- Make sure that you regularly clean input and output trays.
- Let the copier warm up before use.
- Don’t overstack the input tray.
- Fix a jam entirely before continuing the job.
These simple upkeep measures allow your team to make quick fixes and prevent a major copier meltdown.
The Equipment You Invest in Matters
On the same note, if you are working with a super old copier or went with the cheapest model back in the day, it might really be time to invest in a new machine.
