Office Depot, Inc. has inked a deal with Xerox as part of a new investment in its Print & Copy Services.
Office Depot has announced the latest enhancement to the company’s Print & Copy services with the placement of thousands of new Xerox units, from walk-up multifunction printers to high-end production devices and personalisation software, in retail stores and regional production facilities nationwide.
Walk-up customers can use the tablet-like user interface on the Xerox multifunction printers to copy, print, scan and checkout right at the device with a customised, secure auto-pay feature. Behind the counter, Office Depot says the Xerox Color C60/C70 Printer “delivers colourful, quality applications ranging from invitations and posters to promotional products and marketing materials with the added convenience of being able to place orders in-store, online or through the Office Depot mobile app for in-store pick-up.”
This deal marks an extension of the company’s 30-year relationship with Xerox Corporation and is Office Depot’s latest investment in its Workonomy platform of business services, including print and copy, technology, packing and shipping, furniture and administrative services married with “human touch” expertise.
“One of the core tenets of our Workonomy platform lies in meeting the needs of our business customers, on their terms, through our robust business services and expertise, including printing, technology, packing and shipping,” said John Gannfors, Chief Merchandising and Supply Chain Officer for Office Depot, Inc. “The demand for print services continues to be strong, and through this investment, our customers will continue to receive the same outstanding service, output and reliability they’ve come to expect from Office Depot.”
Both retail and business customers will benefit from this new agreement, thanks to devices like the Xerox Iridesse Production Press that prints metallic inks. Additionally, devices like the Xerox Brenva HD Production Inkjet Press and the Xerox Trivor Inkjet Press deliver high-speed inkjet printing with offset quality output, which Office Depot says gives customers the continued benefit of mass customisation and variability of digital printing while offering superior quality and economic benefits.
“Our mantra is to be a true technology partner, expanding well beyond the box to provide strategic guidance and consultancy,” said Mike Feldman, President, Americas Operations, Xerox. “Our long-term partnership with Office Depot is indicative of Xerox’s staying power and we’re confident our innovations will help propel their Workonomy platform even further.”
