[Publib] Free Xerox Copier offer

[Lise Chlebanowski]

I agree that owning an outdated worn out copier after 3 years, doesn't sound like much of a deal, plus an service contract would be expensive on that old a machine. We are trying to find someone who will put a vending copier in our library, like grocery stores have. We have found one vendor, but they don't currently have any units available. Comments concerning experiences with these vending copiers would be appreciated.

I know absolutely nothing about this program but I am commenting anyway. ;-)

One of the reasons we lease our copier is so that we don't ever have to own it.  When the lease is up we get a new lease on a new copier with even better bells and whistles.  This means we always have a good copier. 

So, even if it really is semi-free you probably need to decide if owning a copier is best for your situation or not as one aspect in considering the offer.

Hi all,

Please excuse any cross-posting. I received an email from Xerox about a
program to receive a free color copier. It looks like you have to pay a
monthly service fee but don't pay for the copier and after certain
period (I think it was 3 years) you own the copier outright. Has anyone
seen or participated in this offer? What has your experience been?
TIA for any info you can share,

Mary
