Purchasing Print Finish Equipment? Take advantage of the business-friendly Section 179 of the Tax code.<\/h2>\n

So, the US Government gives business tax incentives to spend money. Section 179 has been generous in the past and continues to offer opportunities for Print Shops to purchase equipment. Section 179 for 2017 is generous offering companies a tax break on capital purchases up to $500,000. That\u2019s a pretty good deal.<\/p>\n

So, how does it work?<\/h3>\n

Well, if you have been considering purchasing a new wide format laminator, a UV coating machine, or that large paper cutter, this is the year to do it. So, let\u2019s take a look at what the estimated savings would be for big machines you could afford this year under Section 179<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Great<\/a>This is a great paper cutter. It\u2019s a 28-inch programmable paper cutter<\/strong> with hydraulic clamp, power back gauge, electronic control module, and IR safety light beams on the front table. You can cut stacks of paper and have a perfect cut. It\u2019s a high-cost cutter, but one of the best on the market.<\/p>\n
