- Printing supplies are consumable products used in printers. Such as common OfficeMate ink cartridges, toner, printing paper and so on.
- There are different classification methods according to the equipment, the use, and the type of consumables. The following is based on the types of consumables.
- From the upstream to the downstream of the printing supplies industry, the industrial chain is: chemical raw materials-toner (ink)-toner cartridges (ink cartridges)-printers. Industry participants can be divided into original manufacturers and compatible product manufacturers. Terminal printers are durable goods, and the market demand is huge, but competition is also fierce.
- Taking color laser printers as an example, the intensification of industry competition in recent years has led to the price of entry-level color laser printers having dropped to 20% five years ago, a significant drop. The decline in prices has promoted the rapid popularity of printers. According to statistics, global printer shipments reached 116 million units in 2012, and the printer market is expected to resume growth in 2013.
- Incentive price competition has led to a significant decline in the profitability of terminal printers, and terminal manufacturers have become more dependent on the profitability of later sales of consumables. Taking a color laser printer as an example, its normal work needs to be equipped with black, cyan, yellow, and red color toner cartridges, and a set of four-color original toner cartridges sell for up to 1600 yuan, which is equivalent to the price of an entry-level color laser printer. And, in the future, it is necessary to constantly replace the toner cartridge. After investigation, the industry information network found that the profit of printing supplies is very high, and the industry essentially depends on the profit of supplies.
- The market space of the printing consumables industry is very huge, and the huge amount of consumables required for huge terminal printers is very large. Global toner cartridge shipments in the industry will increase from 379 million in 2010 to 479 million, of which compatible toner cartridges account for less than 30% of the market. Original toner cartridges sell for about 400 yuan each, while compatible ones are 100 yuan. The price of each toner cartridge is about 300 yuan, and the global market volume of the toner cartridge industry exceeds 100 billion yuan. [1]
