Wide Format Printer Financing and Leasing
Explore Wide Format Printer financing and leasing for large-format printing or plotting. Mehmi Financial Group reviews requests in Canada and eligible U.S. markets, subject to the asset, business location and lender criteria.
Define the equipment and working configuration
Ask the seller to identify print engine, media handling, controller or RIP, software, stands and any cutting or finishing accessories.
Decisions to settle before ordering
- Test the intended media and output: technical drawings, graphics or another application. Confirm print width, handling and workflow with the supplier without relying only on the product label.
- Ask how inks, ventilation where applicable, drying and finishing affect installation and production. Quote software, colour management and operator training separately.
Budget for acquisition and use
Price consumables, software, installation, media storage, finishing and planned maintenance. 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 the planned support and refresh cycle, and confirm return, data-removal, renewal and purchase conditions where applicable.
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.

Financing questions
Why should used printheads and software be reviewed before purchase?
They can materially change the cost of making the machine productive. Obtain current test prints and written licence/support details, then price any required replacement or reinstatement. A low chassis price is not the complete acquisition cost.
What evidence matters for a used purchase?
Request nozzle or print-quality checks, head and feed-system condition, service history, counters and software licence transfer. 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.
