Company getting support for office equipment (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

copier

'office equipment' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'company getting support' is the wordplay.
'company' becomes 'co' (abbreviation).
'getting' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'support' becomes 'pier' (pier is a kind of support).
'co'+'pier'='COPIER'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for copier that I've seen before include "Machine to reproduce print" , "Office machine" , "Machine for reproducing something" , "Something that duplicates" , "unoriginal type" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
