Multifunctional Printers for Hire: Simplify Your Office with a Smarter Print Solution

In a fast-paced business world, efficiency, flexibility, and cost control are more important than ever. Whether you run a corporate office, a school, a retail operation, or a startup, managing your document needs shouldn’t be complicated or expensive. That’s where multifunctional printers come in, versatile devices that combine printing, copying, scanning, and often faxing into one space-saving machine. And if you want all the benefits without the long-term cost of ownership, Formulated IT Group offers an ideal solution: multifunctional printers for hire.

Our printer rental service provides access to industry-leading brands and customisable setups to meet your specific workflow and budget, all backed by expert technical support and a focus on functionality, not brand loyalty.

What Are Multifunctional Printers?

Multifunctional printers (MFPs), also known as all-in-one printers, are machines that combine several essential office functions into one device, typically including:

  • Printing (black and white or colour)
  • Photocopying
  • Scanning to email, file, or cloud
  • Optional fax capabilities
  • Document finishing features like stapling or duplex printing

Rather than managing separate devices for each function, multifunctional printers streamline your document handling needs, saving space, time, and money.

Why Hire a Multifunctional Printer?

Renting or leasing multifunctional printers offers several benefits for South African businesses of all sizes.

  • Lower Upfront Costs: Avoid the capital expenditure of purchasing hardware outright. With Formulated IT Group’s printer rental model, you get full access to powerful printing technology without the upfront burden.
  • Scalability: As your team or document workload grows, we can scale your printer setup to match whether you need an additional unit or a high-speed commercial printer for large volumes.
  • No Long-Term Commitment: Choose flexible monthly, quarterly, or annual rental agreements that suit your project timelines or operational needs.
  • All-Inclusive Support: Printer rentals from Formulated IT Group include servicing, maintenance, and support, so you don’t need to worry about unexpected repair costs or downtime.
  • Access to Top Global Brands: We aren’t tied to any single brand, allowing us to recommend printers from trusted manufacturers like HP, Canon, Ricoh, Epson, Kyocera, Brother, and Xerox. This vendor-neutral approach ensures we tailor the right solution for your needs, not ours.
