Business Wire
The rate of decline in the worldwide hardcopy peripherals market
slowed in the second quarter of 2016 (2Q16) with shipments
contracting 3.8% year over year to 23.1 million units, according to
the International Data Corporation (IDC) Worldwide Quarterly
Hardcopy Peripherals Tracker. The improvement in the global market
was largely driven by strong demand in the color laser (21ppm+) and
mono laser (21-30 ppm) segments with 18.0% and 8.9% year-over-year
growth, respectively.
Other notable highlights in this quarter include:
- Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) saw 6.6%
year-over-year growth in shipments to approximately 8 million
units, bolstered by strong performances in China, Indonesia,
Philippines, and Vietnam.
- Epson's double-digit year-over-year
growth of 10.4% was fueled by increases in six out of eight
regional markets. The vendor grew shipments 13.3% year over year in
the business inkjet segment of the Western European market.
- Canon also grew 1.4% year over year in
the worldwide market with shipments approaching 4.8 million in
2Q16. The vendor's best results came in Asia/Pacific (excluding
Japan) with 19.4% year-over-year growth, which was driven by
increased traction for its ink tank series (i.e, PIXMA G
models).
