Choosing the Right Copier Add-Ons

When you’re buying a copier, there are many optional features—finishers, fax kits, extra trays, and more. But do you really need them?

If you’re a Toronto business looking to make the right call, this guide will help you decide which copier accessories are worth it.

What Is a Finisher?

A finisher is an add-on that staples, hole-punches, or folds documents. It’s useful if your office prints:

• Reports

• Contracts

• Booklets

• Handouts for meetings

You may need a finisher if:

• You print multi-page documents often

• You want to save time on manual tasks

• You need clean, professional-looking prints

You may not need it if:

• You print mostly single pages

• Your staff doesn’t mind stapling manually

• You’re working with a smaller budget

What About Fax?

Yes, fax is still used—especially in industries that need secure communication. A copier with fax lets you send and receive documents like a traditional fax machine.

Consider a fax add-on if:

• You’re in healthcare, legal, or government work

• You still deal with faxing clients or partners

• You want a backup for email communication

Skip it if:

• Your office works fully online

• You haven’t faxed in over a year

• You use secure file-sharing tools instead

The Bottom Line

Not every office needs every feature. Some teams need only basic print and scan functions. Others need finishers, fax, or even multiple trays.
