Our PTA bought our copier--it is a Sharp. I was not in on the selection of the copier. They did not buy a coin op model, so when we have classes in doing research papers (most of the time) we are really tied up working the copier. We are a middle school of 1100, and there is only my aide and me. I would say go for coin-op, but I guess you will still have to make a lot of change. Our kids are always wanting 2 or 3 copies and then pay us with a 10 dollar bill. We charge a nickle a copy, which seems to cover maintenance and toner, etc. The one thing I would really look for is speed. Our copier is the slowest copier I have ever known, and it is *so* frustrating when 25 kids are lined up and there are 5 minutes til the bell! The copier is a hassle, but it seems only fair to have one. I certainly would not want to go back to doing research without it myself--I went to college in the days when we had to use note cards and write everything down by hand!
