About RMIT labs

Print speed: Should be based upon the number of users that will be using the printer as well as the estimated number of pages they will print.

Total cost of ownership: Look at the initial cost as well as the cost of replacing toners. It's also worth comparing the cost per page between various printers.

Print quality: Check to see the maximum print resolution the printer can support.

Paper capacity: Check the number of pages it can hold and the paper sizes it supports.

Expansion potential: What's the maximum memory the printer can accommodate? Can you fit a hard disk, duplex unit, or finisher to the printer as well as any additional paper trays and output bins?
