Our billing system will work with any printer that Windows supports.  As a general rule, we do not recommend inkjet printers for your utility billing office.  Since they are designed for low-volume home use, they are usually not very durable for high-quantity printing (except for in very small districts). For report printing you can use any printer and our system allows you to select a different printer for report and bills. However, if you wish to print post card bills, then you will need a printer that can handle the card stock weight, special margins and wear-and-tear that bill card printing requires.   See our bill cards printer section for more information.  

Because prices are dropping on the Lexmark laser printers, now is a good time to consider laser bill cards if you’d like better looking bills that print faster and quieter.  The current Lexmark printer we recommend is shown below.  

Our systems have a standardized bill card for dot-matrix printers and Lexmark laser printers included in the standard billing package.  Another option that will work with most printers is paper full-page statements. To get more information on the full-page statement add-on or to avoid incurring unexpected costs, please call us before switching bill cards or purchasing your printer.
