Commercial Printer Models for Business Workloads
The term heavy duty printer can refer to different types of equipment. For business use, suitability is generally assessed by print speed, recommended monthly print volume, paper capacity, scanning performance and the machine’s ability to handle sustained daily workloads. Businesses comparing a big printer for office use should assess the same workload, paper-handling and scanning requirements.
