Copier Dealers: Local Independents vs. Manufacturers

Copier Dealers: Local Independents vs. Manufacturers | DBS San DiegoWhat's the difference in leasing or purchasing your digital business copiers, MFPs and printers from a local, independent dealer and directly from the manufacturer?

Best Fit vs. Only Fit

Manufacturers can only sell you the machines they manufacture, whether it's the best fit for you or not.

Independent dealers like DBS offer a full line of multiple brands for each type of office equipment they sell. For us, we represent the following brands for very specific and important reasons:

  • Toshiba Copiers & MFPs: the most reliable, high-end copiers on the market, one of the few to handle 11" x 17" (A3) paper, and a well-known brand
  • Lexmark Printers: its printing quality is great, they are also the industry leader in apps, both pre-designed and custom, now offer 11" x 17" (A3) models, and its IBM legacy means that legacy print languages almost always work with Lexmark
  • OKI Copiers, MFPs & Printers: hands-down, the best graphic art quality color printing on the market, they now offer 11" x 17" (A3) models, and you can even print on wood, magnets and alternate media other than paper
  • HP Copiers, MFPs & Printers: a well-known brand that is integral to our managed print services (MPS)

Service & Support

To help ensure that your office equipment works properly and runs smoothly, a local independent copier dealer like DBS offers the following:

  • We keep parts in house: others don't carry big inventories and have to order overnight
  • An actual person answers the phone: you always get to the right person as quickly as possible
  • Direct access to our ownership: our clients can get in touch with Jeff and Rachel, anytime
  • We're in this for good: with over 40 years in business, we partner with our clients vs. those that come in to make quick sales and are gone then shortly thereafter

Stay Independent

The next time you need to purchase or lease copiers, MFPs or printers, go independent to ensure that you get the equipment that is the best fit for you and not the best fit for someone's sales commission.
