Spread the cost of printing equipment from £5,000 to £500,000+ with flexible finance options. HP, lease, or refinance
Yes, printing equipments are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £5,000 to £500,000, and most deals are written over 12–84 months with a deposit of around 10–20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Printing equipment qualifies for Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting you deduct the full cost from taxable profits in year one, up to £1,000,000. HP agreements allow capital allowances. Lease payments are fully deductible from profits.
Printing equipment, digital and litho presses, large-format printers and finishing kit, is bought by print businesses, in-house corporate print rooms and packaging converters, ranging from a single digital press for a small print shop to a full production line for a larger printer. Finance suits the industry well because a press is a major, long-lived capital item and spreading the cost over its working life matches how print businesses are typically paid, against ongoing job work. Replacement is generally driven by print quality, speed and substrate capability customers now expect, rather than the press failing. An established used market gives smaller printers a route to good secondhand equipment.
Some specialist lenders consider businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options may be available. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender.
