A Smarter Way to Handle Your Business Printing

Most businesses don't know how much they actually spend on printing. Between hardware purchases, replacement toner, maintenance call-outs, paper costs and staff time spent managing it all, the true cost of running an office printer fleet is almost always higher than expected. A managed print service fixes that by bringing everything under one roof.

At Northwest Printer Solutions, our managed print service means you get a single supplier responsible for your printers, your consumables, your maintenance and your support — all wrapped into one predictable monthly cost. No surprise invoices. No chasing different suppliers for toner, parts and repairs. No wasted time. Just reliable printing that works, looked after by a local team you can actually speak to.

We're not a national call centre or a faceless leasing company. We're based in Wigan, right in the heart of the North West, and we've been supplying printers, consumables and managed print solutions to local businesses for over 10 years. We remanufacture our own toner cartridges on-site, we carry stock locally, and we know our customers by name.

Everything Your Business Needs to Print

Our managed print service covers your entire print operation — from the hardware on your desk to the toner inside it and the engineer who keeps it running. Here's what's included.

Printers & Hardware

New or reconditioned printers, photocopiers and multifunction devices supplied, delivered and installed at your premises. We source the right hardware for your volume, budget and workspace — and replace it when the time comes.

Toner & Consumables

All toner cartridges, ink, drums, imaging kits, fuser units and transfer belts included. We remanufacture our own brand toner locally in Wigan, so you get high-quality consumables at a fraction of the cost — delivered before you run out.

Maintenance & Repairs

Preventative maintenance, servicing and emergency repairs — all covered. Our engineers are local to the North West and carry common parts on the van. For businesses in Wigan and the surrounding area, we offer free on-site fitting of maintenance items.

Usage Monitoring

We track your print volumes, toner levels and device health so we can identify waste, predict when consumables need replacing and ensure your fleet is running efficiently. You get full visibility of your print spend with regular usage reports.

Support & Account Management

A dedicated account manager who knows your business, your devices and your preferences. Phone support from a real person in Wigan — not a call centre. Plus priority response for any issues that need attention.

End-of-Life & Recycling

When devices reach the end of their life, we collect, dispose of and recycle them responsibly. Used toner cartridges are returned to our Wigan facility for remanufacturing — keeping them out of landfill and back in circulation.

Printer & Photocopier Rental in Wigan and the North West

Don't want to buy a printer outright? Our managed print service includes flexible printer rental and photocopier rental options for businesses across the North West. Instead of a large upfront cost, you get the hardware you need on a simple monthly agreement — with consumables, maintenance and support all built in.

We supply desktop printers, A3 and A4 multifunction devices, high-volume photocopiers and colour laser printers on rental agreements tailored to your business. Whether you're a small office in Wigan that needs a single reliable device or a larger operation across multiple sites in Manchester, Warrington or Bolton, we can put together a rental package that fits.

Why Rent Instead of Buy?

Buying a printer outright might seem cheaper at first, but when you factor in the cost of toner replacements, maintenance kits, engineer call-outs and eventual hardware failure, the total cost of ownership is significantly higher than most businesses expect. With our printer rental service, you get a predictable monthly cost that covers everything — the device, all consumables, all servicing and all support. No surprises, no hidden costs, no wasted budget.

Photocopier Rental for North West Businesses

For offices that rely on high-volume copying, scanning and printing, our photocopier rental service provides modern multifunction devices on affordable monthly terms. All of our rental photocopiers come fully maintained — toner, drums, servicing and repairs are all included as standard. We deliver, install and configure to your network, and we're on hand whenever you need us.

Getting Started Is Simple

We start every managed print engagement the same way — by understanding your business first. No hard sell, no pressure. Just honest advice from people who know print inside out.

1

Free Print Audit

We visit your premises and carry out a free, no-obligation print audit. We'll assess your current devices, print volumes, consumable costs and workflows to identify where you're overspending and where improvements can be made. This typically reveals savings of 20-30% that most businesses didn't know were there.

2

Tailored Recommendation

Based on the audit, we put together a bespoke managed print proposal covering the right hardware, the right consumables and the right support level for your business. We'll explain exactly what's included, what it costs and what you'll save compared to your current setup. Clear, honest, no jargon.

3

Installation & Setup

Once approved, we deliver, install and configure your new or reconditioned hardware. We'll set up network connectivity, print settings and user access. We also provide training if needed so your team is comfortable with the new devices from day one.

4

Ongoing Management & Support

From that point on, we manage everything. Toner arrives before you run out. Maintenance is scheduled proactively. Issues are dealt with quickly by local engineers. Your dedicated account manager reviews your usage regularly and recommends adjustments to keep costs down and efficiency up.

Locally Remanufactured Toner Cartridges

Here's something most managed print providers can't offer — we remanufacture our own toner cartridges on-site in Wigan. That means the consumables in your managed print service aren't coming from a warehouse on the other side of the country. They're produced locally, quality-tested by our team and delivered directly to your door.

Remanufactured toner cartridges are up to 50% cheaper than original manufacturer cartridges, with no compromise on print quality or page yield. They also keep used cartridge shells out of landfill — each one we remanufacture is one less in the waste stream. For businesses that care about both their bottom line and their environmental impact, it's a genuine win-win.

Every cartridge we remanufacture is one less in landfill

Why North West Businesses Choose Our Managed Print Service

There are plenty of managed print providers out there. Here's why businesses across the North West choose to work with us instead.

Genuinely Local

We're based in Wigan, not in a national call centre. When you phone us, you speak to someone who knows your business, your devices and your preferences. Our engineers are local to the North West and carry parts on the van — no waiting days for a third-party contractor to show up.

Real Cost Savings

Because we remanufacture our own toner cartridges, we control the single biggest cost in any managed print service — consumables. That means we can offer genuinely lower costs than providers who buy in branded toner at full price and pass the cost on to you. Most clients see savings of 20-30% compared to their previous setup.

Fast Response Times

When something goes wrong, you need it fixed quickly. Our local engineers are typically on-site within hours, not days. For consumable deliveries, most orders arrive next working day — and for Wigan and the surrounding area, we often deliver same day.

Flexible Agreements

We don't lock you into rigid 5-year contracts with punitive exit clauses. Our managed print agreements are flexible, transparent and designed around your business — not ours. If your needs change, your agreement changes with them.

Sustainable by Default

Our remanufactured toner, responsible recycling programme and local supply chain mean your managed print service has a significantly lower environmental footprint than national providers shipping branded consumables from distribution centres hundreds of miles away.

Managed Print Services — FAQ

A managed print service is where a single provider takes responsibility for your entire print operation — hardware, consumables, maintenance and support — typically for a fixed monthly cost. Instead of buying printers, sourcing toner from different suppliers and calling out engineers separately, everything is handled by one team under one agreement.

It depends on the number of devices, your print volumes and the level of support you need. We tailor every proposal to the individual business. The best way to find out is to book a free print audit — we will assess your current setup and show you exactly what it would cost and what you would save.

Not necessarily. If your existing devices are in good working order, we can build a managed print service around them — supplying consumables, maintenance and support for the hardware you already own. If your devices need replacing, we can supply new or quality reconditioned hardware on a rental basis as part of the agreement.

Yes — if you just need a printer or photocopier on a rental agreement without the full managed service, we can arrange that too. We supply desktop printers, A3 and A4 multifunction devices and high-volume photocopiers on flexible monthly terms with consumables and maintenance included.

We are not tied to any single manufacturer, which means we can recommend the best device for your needs regardless of brand. We supply and support printers and multifunction devices from all major manufacturers and can source specific models if required.

Remanufactured toner cartridges are used cartridge shells that have been professionally cleaned, inspected, refilled with premium toner and tested to meet original manufacturer specifications. We remanufacture our own toner cartridges at our Wigan facility. They cost significantly less than original cartridges, produce the same print quality and keep used cartridges out of landfill.

We offer flexible agreements rather than rigid long-term contracts. The typical term depends on whether hardware is included — if we are supplying new devices, a longer agreement helps keep the monthly cost down. But we will always work with you to find terms that suit your business, and we do not use punitive exit clauses.

Yes — we are based in Wigan at 6 Seven Stars Road, WN3 5AT. Wigan businesses benefit from same-day consumable delivery, free on-site maintenance item fitting and the fastest possible response times.

Yes — we regularly help businesses transition from other managed print providers. We will review your current agreement, advise on the best time to switch and handle the entire transition process with minimal disruption to your day-to-day printing.

Call us and we will get it sorted. Our local engineers carry common parts on the van and are typically on-site within hours. If the device cannot be repaired on the spot, we will arrange a replacement to keep you printing while yours is being fixed. All repair and maintenance costs are covered by your managed print agreement.

Yes — we supply photocopiers and multifunction devices on flexible rental agreements for businesses in Wigan and across the North West. All rental agreements include consumables, servicing and support as standard. Contact us for a free consultation and quote.
