"N" Opportunity You Can't Afford to Miss from Depot America

  • Aug 01, 2000
Neptune, N.J. __ Depot America, a leading fourth-party maintainer of desktop printer components and subassemblies, announces the availability of the N-17 and N-40 fusers, compatible with IBM, NEC and Xerox workgroup printers.

Chris Sinibaldi, manager of quality assurance and research and development, believes that the N-17 and N-40 fusers will meet the expectations that service companies and self-maintainers have when locating affordable, reliable solutions after their products move off warranty. "The N-17 and N-40, at 50 and 60 percent average savings respectively, represent an attractive aftermarket alternative to purchasing parts directly from an 'EM. Our buyers can enjoy higher profit margins while feeling reassured by our extended warranties and superior service," stated Sinibaldi.

The most replaced subassembly in a printer, the fuser, often is responsible for heating the toner. Faulty fusers, Sinibaldi said, are the catalysts for the majority of service and repair calls. "We believe our fusers are a true win-win for service companies, self-maintainers and most important, end users on the front lines using desktop printers every day," he said. The N-17 and N-40 were introduced domestically in June and July 1998, respectively, and have recommended maintenance intervals between 200,000 and 300,000 pages. "These fusers are truly newsworthy because they are versatile and can cross over to multiple machines."

The following models are compatible with the N-17 fuser:
  • Xerox Network N17
  • Xerox DocuPrint 4517
  • Xerox 4517
  • IBM Network Printer 17
  • IBM 4317
