Business cards are also an important business of printing houses. Now that we have laser and color inkjet printers, it is natural to print ordinary black and white laser business cards and color business cards. At this time, we only need to add a business card cutting machine. There are two kinds of card cutting machines: manual card cutting machine and electric card cutting machine. The price of manual card cutting machine is about 180 yuan, and that of electric card cutting machine is about 520 yuan, which can make business cards, conference cards, passes and other cards.
(3) Plastic sealing machine
Plastic sealing machine is used for plastic sealing of business cards, photos and document covers. Print shops usually use models that can seal A4-sized photos in plastic. Prices generally range from 200 yuan to 300 yuan. You can choose famous brands, such as ICO, Yongzheng and Yida. For detailed usage, please refer to the article "Making money, having fun and starting a business" in Computer News.
(4) Other equipment
If the business volume of business cards is large, you can consider buying a business card offset press. Depending on the printing capacity, the price of this kind of equipment is about 3000 yuan to 7000 yuan. Printing a large number of business cards with a business card offset press can greatly save printing costs.
If you need to make a PVC card certificate, you can also buy a PVC card certificate machine. PVC card machine can print characters and images on PVC cards, which is beautiful and durable. Its manufacturing process is not complicated. Images and characters are printed on PVC substrate by color inkjet printer, and then several layers of PVC materials are laminated together by card machine (laminator), and finally they are stamped and formed. The price of this equipment is above 1000 yuan, and usually comes with business card printing software.
Now let's look at the input and income of the typing and copying shop.
1. Investment plan
For college students Along and Xiaoyu, we designed an investment plan A, which has low investment, low risk and short payback period, and is suitable for college students to work and study. Scheme B is aimed at the social crowd like Xiao Zhang, with more investment, but wider business scope and better business adaptability, which is suitable for long-term operation.
2. Benefit analysis
Due to the variety of services provided by typing and copying shops, only the basic copying and printing services of typing and copying shops are measured and analyzed here.
(1) Cost of paper, toner cartridge and toner.
The same copy paper can be used to copy printing paper in a printing shop, mainly 8 copies of paper, the price is about 500 pages 18 yuan, and the cost of a single copy is 0.036 yuan.
The cost of consumables such as toner, toner cartridge, photosensitive drum and carrier used by Ricoh and Sharp is not much different. If depreciation is not considered, only the cost of toner is calculated, which is about 0.02 yuan per sheet.
HP LaserJet 10 10 laser printer has a monthly printing capacity of 5,000 sheets. Its Q26 12A original integrated selenium drum 460 yuan, with 2000 printed pages and a cost of 0.23 yuan per page; The price of compatible toner cartridges with the same printing quantity is 250 yuan, and the cost per sheet is 0. 125 yuan.
(2) Income
The monthly maximum copy volume of Sharp AR-28 18 exceeds 10000, and the monthly turnover of full-load work can reach 4,000 yuan according to the charge for each 0.4 yuan.
The number of copies of Ricoh Aficio2022 is calculated as 654.38+500,000 copies per month. If 0.4 yuan is collected on average, the monthly turnover can reach 6000 yuan.
The printing business is calculated at 4000 sheets per month. If 0.5 yuan is charged for each piece on average, the monthly turnover can reach 2000 yuan.
Excluding equipment depreciation, personnel salaries, electricity charges, rent and other expenses, the gross profit of Scheme A is 4,796 yuan per month, and Scheme B is 66 16 yuan. In fact, the prices of copying and printing vary greatly from place to place, and the price factor must also be considered when calculating income. In addition, the depreciation cost of equipment is also relatively large. Of course, this is only the income from basic business, plus business expansion such as business cards, text entry, business card printing and binding. It should be said that typing and copying shops still have considerable income. As long as the operators are careful, open up financial resources and operate flexibly, the "money way" of typing and copying shops is still good.
Xiao Zhang's own typing and copying shop opened, and his shop is next to an office. Business is not bad after opening, especially printing, photocopying and business card business is very hot. However, after a period of time, Xiao Zhang found that the income was not as good as expected. Through analysis, Xiao Zhang found the crux of the problem, mainly the excessive consumption of consumables. On the one hand, the reason for the large consumption of consumables is the lack of experience in opening a store for the first time, on the other hand, the consumption of selenium drums is the main reason. Xiao Zhang calculated an account. The price of the original toner cartridge he used was 480 yuan, and the printing volume was only about 3,000. If the monthly printing volume is 10000, the cost of the toner cartridge will be more than 1000, even exceeding the salary of the typist. To reduce the cost, it seems that we can only find a way on the selenium drum.
At present, there are three kinds of toner cartridges on the market: original toner cartridges, universal toner cartridges and regenerated toner cartridges. The original toner cartridge has the best printing effect, lower failure rate and more secure life, but its procurement cost is higher. Universal toner cartridges, also known as compatible toner cartridges, are compatible products introduced by third-party manufacturers. Generally speaking, compatible toner cartridges are also produced by well-known manufacturers. Although their printing effect is slightly different from that of the original toner cartridges, they are generally good and can meet most application requirements. More importantly, their prices are usually 30% ~ 60% lower than the original products. Its service life is also guaranteed, and some are even higher than the original selenium drum. Recycled toner cartridges are made by recycling the original toner cartridges that have used up toner and refilling them with toner. Its price is attractive, but the quality is uneven. If it is an original toner cartridge that has been used only once, its regenerated condition is basically acceptable, but the regenerated toner cartridge that has been used for more than two cycles is in poor condition. In addition, although some powerful manufacturers mainly use recycled materials for production, they have optimized the materials and used some brand-new materials in the production process. Because of the strict quality control system, the quality of their products is also relatively reliable. This product is usually called environmental protection selenium drum. It should be said that this product is between compatible toner cartridges and regenerated toner cartridges, and the quality is mostly trustworthy. If you don't pay special attention to printing quality and print a large amount, it is a good choice to use a compatible toner cartridge, which can greatly reduce the printing cost. If the printing volume is not large and the price is sensitive, you may wish to choose regenerated toner cartridges, but you must choose reputable merchants to buy them.
Tips: Add powder to toner cartridge.
We know that the integrated toner cartridge does not allow users to add toner by themselves, and the toner cartridge will be scrapped when the toner is used up. In fact, most other parts of this toner cartridge are still intact. Usually, a new toner cartridge can be filled with toner several times before it reaches its service life. Therefore, by adding toner to the toner box, the printing cost of the laser printer can also be greatly reduced.
Compatible toner cartridge purchase
Many people like to confuse compatible toner cartridges with recycled toner cartridges, because many manufacturers of recycled toner cartridges also have their own brands, even under the banner of compatible toner cartridges. At present, a considerable number of domestic manufacturers of compatible printing consumables are engaged in the business of recycling toner cartridges, and there are not many manufacturers with real production capacity, which has caused confusion in the current compatible toner cartridge market and affected the image of compatible toner cartridges in the eyes of users. In fact, as long as you look for the products of those powerful regular manufacturers, compatible selenium drums can still be purchased with confidence. Here are some compatible toner cartridge manufacturers to recommend to you.

Other famous brands:
In addition to the above compatible consumables manufacturers, there are also a number of reliable general consumables manufacturers such as Ziguang, and the quality of their selenium drum products is also guaranteed. In fact, in the field of general consumables, there is a relatively small gap in print quality between the compatible toner cartridges used for black and white binding and the original toner cartridges. For most users, life is the most important factor. Usually, the printing life of newly produced compatible toner cartridges is relatively guaranteed, most of which are not inferior to the original products, and some products even exceed the standard slightly. The environmental protection selenium drum mainly produced by recycled materials mainly depends on the quality control level of manufacturers, and usually the product life of large manufacturers is more guaranteed. Another advantage of choosing compatible toner cartridges is that there are fewer counterfeit products. Because the price of compatible toner cartridges is relatively low and the profit margin is low, counterfeiters rarely get their hands on the field of compatible toner cartridges, and the risk of buying brand-name compatible toner cartridges is relatively low. If you don't have strict requirements on printing quality, you might as well choose a compatible toner cartridge, which can save a lot of money.
