Why Now Is the Best Time for a Copier Contract Evaluation
Let’s face it: copier and printer contracts can be overwhelming. Between monthly costs, maintenance fees, and usage terms, it’s easy to stick with the status quo and renew without asking critical questions. But as the end of the year approaches, it’s essential to take a closer look. Here’s why:
- Maximize Savings Before the New Year: Many copier contracts have hidden inefficiencies—such as unused features, outdated equipment, or escalating costs—that can be addressed by switching or upgrading. By evaluating now, you have time to identify areas for improvement and lock in better terms before 2025.
- Optimize Year-End Budgeting: An updated copier or printer strategy helps ensure you’re aligning your spending priorities with business goals.
By acting now, you’ll have the information you need to make an informed decision before year-end deadlines hit. ABT’s Free Copier Contract Evaluation ensures there’s no cost or commitment—just valuable insights into your current print infrastructure.

Offset Capital Costs with Section 179 Tax Deductions
One of the most compelling reasons to upgrade your copier or printer equipment now is the opportunity to leverage Section 179 tax deductions. Section 179 of the IRS Tax Code allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment and software purchased or financed during the tax year.
Here’s how this deduction works to your advantage:
- Immediate Savings: Instead of depreciating the cost of new equipment over several years, you can deduct the full expense this year. That’s a massive tax benefit that puts cash back into your business.
- Upgrade Without Breaking the Bank: Investing in new equipment or solutions before December 31st allows you to improve operations while offsetting capital costs.
For example, if you purchase or lease new copier or print equipment and it qualifies for Section 179, you could see a significant tax reduction—freeing up money to reinvest in other areas of your business.
But don’t wait: To benefit from Section 179, purchases or upgrades need to be completed and delivered before the end of the calendar year (December 31st, 2024). That’s why now is the time to evaluate your current contract and explore new solutions.

Set Your Business Up for Success in 2025 with Upgraded Devices
Upgrading your office equipment isn’t just about having the latest technology; it’s about enabling your team to work smarter, faster, and more efficiently. Here’s why investing in up-to-date devices makes sense heading into 2025:
Improved Productivity
Modern copiers, printers, and multifunction devices offer faster speeds, better quality, and advanced features like cloud connectivity, automated workflows, and enhanced security. By upgrading, your team spends less time dealing with slow or unreliable equipment and more time focusing on core business tasks.
Reduced Downtime and Costs
Outdated equipment is more prone to breakdowns and inefficiencies, which can lead to costly repairs and downtime. New devices come with better warranties, more reliable performance, and energy-efficient technology that reduces long-term costs.
Enhanced Security
Cybersecurity threats are increasing, and older devices can be a vulnerability in your IT infrastructure. Modern copiers and printers come equipped with enhanced security features like data encryption, user authentication, and secure document release. Protecting your sensitive information has never been more critical.

Add Value with Managed Print, Managed IT Services, and Access Control
Upgrading your copier and print equipment is just one part of the equation. To set your business up for long-term success, consider enhancing your operations with additional solutions like Managed Print Services (MPS), Managed IT Services, and Access Control.
Managed Print Services (MPS)
With MPS, you can gain control over your printing environment and reduce costs by:
- Optimizing device usage and print workflows.
- Automating toner replenishment and maintenance.
- Improving visibility into print expenses.
MPS allows you to streamline your printing operations while saving money and reducing waste.
Managed IT Services
Managed IT Services go beyond printing to ensure your entire IT infrastructure is secure, reliable, and optimized for success. From network monitoring and data protection to help desk support, partnering with a Managed IT provider reduces downtime and protects your business from cyber threats.
Access Control Solutions
If physical security is a concern, adding Access Control Solutions ensures only authorized personnel can enter your business or specific areas within your building. Modern access control systems provide enhanced security, detailed activity logs, and integrations with other office technologies for seamless operation.
By bundling these services with your copier contract, you gain a complete business solution that supports productivity, security, and cost savings.
