welcome to the circus
This is a great place to learn. Welcome. =^..^=
If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

I am having a tough time choosing between two machines to print my stuff.
First of all, I would like to ask is this the right place to ask such question or should I post somewhere else ??
e-Studio 45
Both of the machines I'm available to get is CANON DIGITAL IMAGERUNNER COPIER IR 4570 and Toshiba e-Studio 455 Multifuntional Printer System.
Edited * The Toshiba machine is brand new but the rental price is a bit expensive compare to the Canon because 4570 is a re-conditioned machine. Which machine would all of you here choose if it is only used to print out B&W pages ?
Another question is, is there any copier machine more appropriate to use to print only B&@ pages ?

The 4570 is a good machine, except for some jamming issues, make sure that it has been updated with parts and software. The e-studio, I don't know much of, as I'm a canon tech.
By the way, welcome.

I mixed up the re-conditioned and the brand new part.
CANON DIGITAL IMAGERUNNER COPIER IR 4570 is re-conditioned and Toshiba e-Studio 455 Multifuntional Printer System is a brand new one.
I'm planning to make around 500k prints per month with either two 4570 or two 455.
So the question is will the jamming issue cause me a major problem since the 4570 is re-conditioned machine ?
Could that be correct? 500K per month?
You'll kill those machines at that volume.
The Canon is rated at a Maximum monthly volume of 170K. A more reasonable average is 1/2 that.
The Toshiba is rated at a Maximum monthly volume of 150K. Again a more reasonable average is 1/2 that.
Are you considering buying five or six of these machines? =^..^=

Thanks BlackCat for the information provided, I don't really have any experience on copier machine and I come out with that figure from the information the salesman gave me.
Can I know where can I get more information on how people rate copier machines ?
I came out with the calculation by this way, canon 4570 PPM is 45 , so 45 x 60 minutes x 10 hours per day x 20 days per month = 540,000 pages per month. I expect a 50% downtime of each machine, so I thought that 2 machines will be sufficient to do 500k prints per month.
Additional information * I intend to print out only A3 papers
Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm really willing to learn.
Consider a higher mid copier if 500K is your monthly volume.

At the minimum I would go with a Canon IR-5070, but if you can support 208V find a cheap IR-7200 or IR-8070. Unit is a workhorse and will last you a long time. Monthly volume is around 200K with a max of 350K. You could go faster with the 8500, 105, 9070 or 105+ but you would probably pay more for them
Accidents don't just happen. They must be carelessly planned.
