Thanks Art! I would advise against anyone using Peak Resources for anything they need. They often claim to have product ready to ship and then tell you it has shipped but refuse to give any tracking because it really hasn’t shipped because they are a middle man distributor who only drop ships from Tech Data or Ingram. I did not know this until this week as we had a pending order with a car dealer (net new) for a fleet of Lexmark’s and the customer was extremely upset about the three month...

That used to be the case but now their fleets are so entrenched with Lexmark's that they don't want to mix fleets and have more varying toners on the shelves etc. The list of excuses is long. I think it is just keeping with their status quo. It is fine for me; we just have to pivot based on what Lexmark actually has available.

That makes sense. I always hated when software companies would specify a specific brand. Several times we put a unit in before a deal to show that a PCL printer is a PCL printer.
