Dell printers might be produced by Foxconn
Some time ago Dell was rumoured to release printers under its brand in addition to PDAs. In mid-August the company officially confirmed this intention, and recently Dell representatives met with people from Taiwanese Foxconn Electronics (trademark of Hon Hai Precision Industry) and together they visited IUT (International United Technology), ink cartridge maker.
Foxconn representative said it was early to claim that his company will make Dell printers. Though he added that entering the market with own printers will require some components.
IUT hasn´t officially commented this yet. However, the company has already created a department for printer turrets and drivers for Dell and Foxconn OEM contract.
Most likely, printers won´t be too expensive to sell them along with Dell PCs. Potential makers also include Lexmark and Epson, whose products Dell sells today.
