PS1 lacks reliable, small-format 2D printing capabilities. Several printers have come & gone. We are proposing a vote for a printing solution that will stand up to heavy use and be easily repairable.

We have chosen the Xerox Workcentre 7855. It will perform the printing tasks needed, but will also enhance our scanning capabilities and provide us the ability to fax, should we need it.

Passage of this vote will authorize spending up to $1900 of discretionary funds for the initial purchase. It also sets expectations for operations budget for the next few years.

We sought out a second quote from a company (ARC). That quote is attached to this wiki entry. The initial purchase cost in the ARC quote was more and also required an ongoing service contract. We will not be using the second quote from ARC.

Authorize the Board of Directors (or their designee) to spend up to but not more than $1900 to purchase one Xerox Workcentre 7855 printer and, if budget allows, extra consumables and accessories. This authorization will be valid for 180 days after member approval of this authorization.

We're aiming to install the printer in the lounge. Most maintenance can be done by any user. Additionally, David Ditzler, the Pumping Station: One 2D Area Host, has one of these models for his printing business and can lead and perform most all maintenance.

All other small-format printers in the space will be removed via the asset removal process. The two flatbed scanners currently in the space will also be removed unless an area host has use for it. The large format printer will remain as-is.
