Dell will offer 13 single and multi-function monochrome and colour laser printers through a new deal with IT distributor, Altech Computers.

Altech will also manage cartridge fulfillment for selected models across Australia and New Zealand.

Altech Computers is Dell’s first Australian distributor and second distribution partner in New Zealand, the other being Simms International.

"This agreement enables Dell to increase customer choice, provide flexibility, and offer accelerated printer product delivery to most partners and their commercial customers who have immediate technology needs,” said Jay Turner, Director of Dell’s channel business in Australia and New Zealand.

Antony Sheen, Managing Director of Altech, added, "This is the first time Dell products are to be sold via a distributor in Australia, and Altech is honoured to be chosen as a printer distributor for both the Australian and New Zealand markets.” Dell says it now provides over 85% coverage of printing solutions chosen by customers in Australia and New Zealand.  "Altech is one of Australasia's fastest growing IT distribution companies and has office and warehouse facilities in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Auckland,” said Turner. "Their strong customer focus complements Dell’s drive to help partners most effectively meet the needs of their customers, deliver value and grow their business.”
