If you've ever made the wrong decision on a purchase -- maybe a shirt that didn't quite fit right, or a new brand of laptop that you never quite liked as much as its predecessor -- you know how frustrating it can be to spend money on something you don't use or that doesn't work like you want it to. This kind of mistake is especially problematic when it comes to office equipment, like a new copier. It's easy to decide on a new copier based on price, after all, staying within a budget matters. However, not selecting the right copier -- one that fits your specific needs -- can actually be costly in the long run.
