The Memjet C6000 series will be distributed in the US by Image Star.
Sys-Con reported on the new “strategic distribution partnership” between Memjet and Image Star, an imaging products wholesaler, whereby Image Star will distribute the C6000 series of Memjet printers and their supplies in the US market.
The C6000 range includes the C6010 printer and C6030 MFP, and supplies available from Image Star will include printheads, ink tanks and refilled ink tanks, the latter filled with “authentic Memjet ink through authorised processes”, according to the company. The C6010 machine is said to be “ideal for business[es] looking for productive and affordable colour printing solutions”, whilst the C6030 MFP “combines the high-speed colour printer with a copier and scanner” for “additional workflow-friendly” options.
Kelly Munro, Vice President of Sales at Image Star, stated: “Memjet has truly innovative printhead technology and adding these devices to our portfolio ensures we’re providing our customers with the devices that can drive new value and profit via the latest technology.
“Being one of the selected distributors for Memjet-powered printers puts us in a unique position with resellers looking for ways to transition their aging monochrome laser installed base to colour and increase colour pages across their accounts. We’re looking forward to helping our customers increase the value of the fleets they manage by offering C6000 Series printers.”
Kim Beswick, President of Memjet Office, added: “The new office ink category is opening up new possibilities for the office printing market. Memjet’s C6000 device category is poised to grow rapidly in 2014, by offering blazingly fast and affordable colour alternative to the vast installed base of monochrome laser printers and a new price point for convenient desktop colour pages.
“Memjet is leading the way with refillable cartridges that deliver high quality, low cost colour pages and help resellers grow colour pages profitably. We’ve put a focus on adding strategic distributors to our global network and we’re excited to have Image Star as a new capable partner for the US market.”
