Bytes Document Solutions has become the strategic partner of EFI to sell, service and support two hybrid wide-format printers throughout South and sub-Saharan Africa. 

Bytes will now offer the entry-level EFI H652 wide-format hybrid printer and the EFI H1625 LED wide-format hybrid printer.

“We are very excited about adding the EFI range to our portfolio because our wide range of customers in the graphic arts industry, including commercial printers, advertising agencies, screen printers and packaging companies, are all looking to grow their business capabilities,” says Johan Basson, CEO of Bytes Document Solutions. “EFI’s high-productivity and unique LED printer solutions fit superbly with our range and we see this as a perfect combination to help them with their current and growth plans.”

Paul Cripps, the vice-president of EFI sales in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), said EFI and Bytes had already worked together for many years in selling the Fiery Digital Print Servers that form part of the extensive range of Xerox equipment. “Bytes Document Solutions’ reputation in the market, and with its exemplary sales, service and support network in Africa, makes a very strategic fit as an EFI partner,” he said.

A wholly-owned division of JSE-listed Altron, Bytes Document Solutions is the authorised Xerox distributor in 26 sub-Saharan countries.
