Corporate Express Toner Conversion

May 28, 2009

The Purchasing Office would like to provide the University community with an update on the Corporate Express/Staples merger.

Starting this week customers ordering Corporate Express (CEB) brand toner will begin receiving Staples brand toner. The Staples brand toner will become the new generic brand. This conversion will be the same as with the CEB brand paper in November of last year.

The University community should also note that the University's negotiated rates are only honored on orders placed on EWAY and are not available through Staples direct or Staples retail locations.

There are no other changes at this time and we will continue to provide updates as appropriate. If you have any questions regarding Corporate Express please contact our sales representative, Lisa McCool at lisa.mccool@cexp.com or 212-462-7485. You may also contact Natalie Calleja, Director of Business Services at nc2246@columbia.edu.

Thank you for your continued support.
