How much does it cost to buy out or terminate a copier lease early?
An early copier lease termination can require the remaining scheduled payments, taxes, fees and return costs, sometimes reduced by a stated payoff formula. A buyout may also include a fair-market or fixed purchase amount. The only reliable number is a dated written payoff from the leasing company—not an estimate from a replacement salesperson.
Copier Lease Buyout and Early Termination Costs
Request a written payoff that separates remaining equipment payments, purchase option, late or administrative charges, taxes and return freight. Then compare four paths:
- Keep the existing copier through term
- Pay off and return the equipment
- Exercise the purchase option
- Replace it without rolling hidden balance into a new lease
Review end-of-lease requirements and the full lease versus buy analysis. Require any carried balance to appear separately before requesting replacement copier prices.
