It’s Like Unlimited Drink Refills, Except for Printheads.

Alliance Entertainment sees substantial savings with Zebra’s Printhead Protection Program.

If you are a music or movie fan, you’ve probably bought a product with ties to Alliance Entertainment. The company distributes CDs, vinyl records, DVDs, and video games to your favorite independent music or video store. The fun doesn’t stop there; Alliance also ships toys, collectibles and consumer electronics. 

With a distribution center in Shepherdsville, Kentucky, Alliance ships to sellers all over the world. As you can guess, this requires a lot of labels and a lot of printing. Fortunately, we have been able to help Alliance save money to the tune of about $80,000 a year. How, you ask? Once upon a time, Alliance handled its own printer maintenance which led to devices being out of service for a week or two. The company also used supplies that weren’t pre-tested for image quality, durability, or premature printhead failure.

We were able to connect with Alliance and offer a single-source solution for its printing needs. We provided onsite printer tech support, and Alliance purchased our Printhead Protection Program, a perk of Certified Supplies, which offers unlimited printhead replacement for the life of the device!
