Jmoore, Kaysy and others, I'm still waiting. I implore you guys to provide me with details of the following:

1. How to start online registration services.
2. How to obtain exam scratch cards.
3. Whether it's ok to use thin clients or desktops.
4. Whether I should open business centre instead of cyber cafe.

Hi guys. Nairaland is a place where you can find almost anything these days. I appreciate you guys.

Please advice me on best printers to use for business centre, bearing cheaper cost of maintenance (cartridge replacement or refill).

Anyone have good ideas to share about Direct Imaging printing?

Thanks all.

Go For Laserjet Printer. We Have 3 In 1 Black And White That Is Not More Than 30k. Then We Have Laserjet Color Printer That Is Not More Than 45k. Laserjet Cost To Buy But Easy To Maintain And Also Durable And Reduce Cost Of Runing

Why are you guys going for desktop computers, I think laptops will be better in energy consumption and usability

I'm almost ready to open my cyber cafe. The shop I've will contain about 20 computers, but I'll start with only 5 computers with the intention to expend later. Jmoore, Kaysy and others, please provide me with details of how I can go into the sales of exam scratch cards and online registration services. What is the process of obtaining the scratch cards? Before offering the online registrations, do I need to register with exam bodies like JAMB and WAEC and organisations like the Immigration and the Army? As for the computers, is it ok if I use thin clients instead of desktops? Kaysy warned everybody to stay away from cyber cafe business and he emphasized that business centre is the real deal. Please, what do you guys think of that? Is he right, or do you think he was not doing some right when he was running the cafe business?

Hello. Can someone advise on the type of printer, scanner and photocopier that's good for this kind of business.

I heard deskjet printers ain't economical.

I saw some officejet printers on jumia. 3in1 printer that can print, scan and copy. Is this type of printer okay? What's the difference between HP officejet, laserjet and deskjet. Which can you recommend?

Please guys with experience in the house. I need your advice and recommendations as to the type of printer, copier and scanner to use.

Are three in one Printers okay. if yes, which one can you recommend?

darexkey:


check my thread on https://www.nairaland.com/3561074/computer-business-centre-owners-intending you have the answer to your question

jmoore:


Geographical location matters. Don't expect much from internet browsing because most Nigerians access the internet with their mobile devices.
Other services like recharge card printing can increase your revenue.

Please ask your friend how much he charges for computer training?

Greetings bro.
How far with your business centre?

jmoore:

I lost interest in it. I am into phone accessories. But the computer business is good if you are in a good location.
