hello all I am about to start a printing press but I am at lost on what I need and wanted to get advice. I know buying a printer is one thing but completing printing contracts is another thing with keep maintained costs in mind. I found a local shop that seems to have some legit deals but I need help. So to be completely honest with the contracts that I have right now range from 500 to 6000 in total around 86000 prints in a span of 5 months. My budget is around 30k ish for this start-up but dont speicfally know would best heres what I have in mind

Xerox Versant 80 (good production like but I dont know what maintained costs looks like)
