Request Equipment Financing

Calculate Payment

Define the equipment and working configuration

Ask the seller to identify press configuration, feeders and delivery, colour units or modules, controls, accessories and installation scope.

Decisions to settle before ordering

Run representative stock and jobs to review registration, output quality and production setup. Confirm the intended paper sizes and substrates with the supplier.
Plan dismantling, rigging, utilities and commissioning as a project. Identify responsibilities for a used press’s condition before removal and after installation.

Budget for acquisition and use

Price dismantling, transport, rigging, utilities, installation, operator training and initial production waste. Separate the equipment amount from installation, consumables and ongoing services so the requested finance amount is clear.

Compare an ownership-focused loan with any proposed lease using total payments, fees and end obligations. Match the term to expected use and maintenance needs. Confirm the final purchase or return conditions and any removal costs before agreeing to the proposal.

Use BDC’s production-equipment purchase checklist to review installation, testing and training alongside the machinery price.

Use the equipment payment calculator for illustrations, then request a written proposal with the actual payment schedule and fees.

Sheet Fed Press financing market context

Quick answer: Sheet Fed Press financing is generally reviewed using the equipment price, configuration, seller, expected useful life, business cash flow, credit profile and requested term. New or used assets may be considered, but approval and structure depend on the actual transaction, lender and jurisdiction.

In ELFA’s 2025 Survey of Equipment Finance Activity, IT software represented 3.2% of 2024 annual new business volume by equipment type among respondents, PCs/workstations 2.8%, and networking equipment 2.2%. See the ELFA equipment finance research for the underlying U.S. industry data.

More recently, ELFA reported $14.3 billion in seasonally adjusted new business volume among surveyed member companies for July 2026, with year-to-date volume 16.8% above the same period in 2025. In Canada, Statistics Canada reported 2026 machinery and equipment capital-spending intentions of about C$127.2 billion.

How does equipment financing work?

Mehmi Financial Group is an equipment finance and leasing brokerage. Depending on the transaction, options may be available through banks, credit unions, equipment finance companies or private and alternative lenders. Products, assets and geographic coverage vary by provider. Financing is subject to credit approval, documentation, equipment eligibility, lender requirements, jurisdiction and final underwriting.

Choose your equipment

Send the seller's quote, price, year, make, model, and serial number when available. For used equipment, include condition, usage, and maintenance details. Confirm financing before making a non-refundable commitment.

Review your options

Share your business history, recent financial information, and equipment plans. Compare the upfront contribution, payment, term, and end-of-term obligation. Availability depends on the asset, business profile, and location.

Complete funding conditions

After approval, complete the agreement, final invoice, insurance, and required payment documents. Any ownership, inspection, and delivery conditions must be cleared before funds are released. Approval is not the same as funding.

Financing questions

What if the press must be relocated before it can be tested?

Agree the inspection evidence, acceptance milestones and remedies in the purchase contract. Price dismantling and recommissioning separately. Ask the lender how staged delivery and installation affect funding conditions before paying a deposit.

What evidence matters for a used purchase?

Request impression count, cylinder and roller condition, service history, control support, sample output and known refurbishment work. Ask the lender whether an independent inspection or valuation is required; condition and seller evidence should be resolved before a non-refundable commitment.

Can the seller be paid before delivery or installation?

Deposits and staged payments require specific review. Provide the supplier’s payment schedule, delivery terms and acceptance milestones before committing. Funding depends on completed lender conditions; an approval does not automatically release money for an undelivered or unfinished project.
