Home > About LPT LPT AustraliaThe Laser Printer Terminal (LPT) is a Canberra-based business that sells new and refurbished laser printers; new and remanufactured toner cartridges; printer accessories; and printer parts. We have been operating since 2001. We market our products throughout Australia through this website and via our Catalogue. We aim to conduct ourselves in an honest and ethical manner and we pride ourselves on selling quality products backed by our comprehensive warranty. Our refurbished laser printers are not just used printers that have had a superficial clean. We aim to restore all of our printers as close as possible to new condition. We aim to ensure that they will give years of trouble free service rather than simply work for the duration of the warranty period. The cost of refurbishing (including dismantling, inspecting and cleaning, installing a re-built fuser, paper path kit, additional memory, a premium remanufactured toner cartridge, updating the firmware) accounts for more than 70% of the sale price of our printers. We aim to provide a quality product that will provide years of reliable service at less than half the original price. We focus on HP and Lexmark laser printers as these are the market leaders and they have a reputation for quality and reliability. Obviously, our prices for refurbished printers are higher than you would expect to pay for a second hand printer that is being sold "as is" with little or no warranty. If you are buying a new printer, it makes sense to shop around and find the cheapest price because you are comparing like with like. However, comparing the price of a fully refurbished laser printer with that of a "used printer" or a "second hand printer" is like comparing apples and oranges. We find that the word "refurbished" is much abused by sellers who only pay lip service to the term: we guarantee our products to be fully refurbished laser printers and this is reflected in our one month money-back guarantee and our extended warranties. If you are not able to buy one of our new or refurbished printers, we will be happy to sell you a second hand printer that has been tested as working but which has not been fully refurbished. A used printer, ie a second hand printer will be much cheaper to buy but it will come with only one month's return-to-base warranty.
