Buying used xerox 550 and service agreements

How exactly does the process work for getting a service agreement on a used printer? Will xerox directly supply a service contract? Is it worth getting the 550 for $5,000 or should i just focus on buying a new 560 from xerox, sucking up the price, and getting the service? We are very low volume, but high in quality and are printing mostly full color photos 10x10 in size on this. We need the quality to be top notch all the time, so I feel service is important.

Also the 550 vs 560, same printer different speeds?
 
We did that with a 700. Bought it used at auction and got a service contract from Xerox. If you can get the serial number of the machine, Xerox can tell you how much it will cost click wise. This way you can see if it's better to go new or not. We found that the used machines usually get around a double to to click cost.
