Generic term for different types of industrial machines

Question

For our product we are dealing with companies that predominantly have industrial-scale printers and other machines used for post-processing.
Those other machines are simply referred to as 'machines' while the printers are called 'printers' even though they are machines, too.

I am now looking for a generic term for printers and these machines. Only using 'machines' for both would be very confusing since 'machines' is synonymous with all machines but printers.
Calling it 'printers & machines' will not be OK, it has to be one word. 'Assets' is a bit too non-technical, 'Fleet' seems inappropriate since I would apply that to vehicles or ships only.

Answer 1

I suggest equipment, as an abbreviated form of process equipment. Ideally you'd use the full version first or in the documentation then abbreviate it where necessary.

Answer 2

Mechanisms would include all apparatus of a mechanical nature, printers included. Non-printer machines would become a subset of 'mechanisms'.

Answer 3

Perhaps you can call them hardware?

Answer 4

Are you searching the word "Appliance" or "Unit" ?

It is often used in manufactoring-process.

Answer 5

Perhaps, you could use paraphernalia.

noun

miscellaneous articles, especially the equipment needed for a particular activity.

He has an impressive collection of bicycling paraphernalia, but he doesn't ride very often anymore.
