My Dear Readers:

I would like to share a post with you that I read via wechat. I hope that it will inspire you as it did me. It is a simple yin and yang balance:"When you look at the Yin, the side in black, you have to see the bright spot in the dark; When you look at the Yang, the side in white, you have to notice the dark spot".

It is a metaphor for the journey in life that we all ride on. There are both bad and good days and we must seek the bright spot in challenging times and be alert to guide our journey to success.

Like any industry in both its growth and mature phase, our industry has gone through countless challenges in recent years. However, in these tough times, we must spot our opportunities. We are gradually adapting, for example, to the new “thumb” culture with mobile devices increasingly becoming the norm.

With this in mind, we would like to share with you some insight from industry leaders on where the next hot spots for growth opportunities lie within this newly evolved culture. To learn more, please read Steve Weedon’s inspiring article, "The Emerging Markets: the Next Hot Spots" and "Opportunities and Challenges: A Discussion with Thailand's Industry Leaders", an article compiled by Recharge Asia staff writiers based in Thailand. In addition to these, don’t miss Emerging Markets: The Next Hot Spots by Steve Weedon on page 14, The Ramifications Of India’s Ill-Defined Online Marketing Regulations by Curt Keller on page 26 and The Cost of Ignoring Security in Print Environments? Try $450M by Dave Westlake on page 32.

So as the summer has arrived with its warm sunny days, it’s time to venture out to new possibilities in new markets. I warmly welcome you to come to RechargExpo Thailand, August 28-30, at IMPACT, Bangkok, Thailand. Join us and spot your next wave of growth potential. See you there!

This year, I had the opportunity to go to Sao Paulo, Brazil to attend Reciclamais 2013, one of the most influential remanufacturing e x h i b i t s i n t h e i n d u s t r y . M a n y remanufacturing companies participated as Brazil is a growing and shining star among the BRIC markets – especially in the recycling aspect of the cartridge business.

I went anticipating a crowded exhibit hall and highly engaged exhibitors and visitors, as I heard the place was historically always packed. Upon arriving, I felt the energetic vibe of a major metropolitan city that’s similar to New York City.

However, I was advised by my taxi driver to be cautious and not to wander through the streets because of the possibility o f e n c o u n t e r i n g v i o l e n t demonstrations. I have to say, though, that I was touched by the people's warmth and passion, which to me seemed to represent the character of the whole nation. People in Sao Paulo are passionately helpful and friendly.

At the exhibit venue, there were about 88 exhibitors’ booths spread throughout roughly the same exhibit space as last year. However, there were more exhibitors present because of the partnerships made with the local companies.

As I cruised through the a rea , fo r example , I s aw a booth displaying a number of logos. Because of this, it was difficult to tell which company the booth represented. I later discovered that it was owned by a partnership or a local company that represented a couple of brands representing the U.S. or China.

All the well-known brands f rom the remanufac tu r ing industr y – Jadi , Greenr ich, Chinamate, Apex, and many others – were seen at the exhibit. However, some of those brands

just had their logos displayed with only a few key staff present. Their connecting point to this market channel is their Brazilian

counterpart.Brazil is regarded as one of

the fastest growing emerging markets, with many having high hopes for high growth in this country. However, the Brazilian government, which considered recycled

cartridges as a type of "electronic trash," imposed a policy that hasn't always encouraged recycled products to penetrate its market. On the other hand, newly-built products have easily entered the market at much lower prices.

As such, the Brazilian market is currently flooded with many new compatibles, significantly harming the remanufac tured products market. We in the remanufacturing industry should seriously revisit the "root" objective in having a recharging industry. We also need to stay on track with our core values – recycle, reuse, and reduce.

W i t h a p p r o x i m a t e l y 3 0 % compatibles in this market, the room for remanufactured products has gotten smaller and smaller. People in the remanufacturing business have called for change and a return to the "root" or original aim of the industry. Because of this, the exhibition organizer needs to ponder ways to effectively educate and advocate for this industry in order to do encourage more remanufacturing.

The show ended on a good note. We believe that 2014 will be yet another good year for the industry in Brazil. Ciao and see you on June 11-13, 2014!

Enter pr ises face stagger ing—and escalating—vulnerabilities.

A 2013 study of the Global 2000 companies by Ponemon projects an average loss of $450M per organization due to network attacks in the U.S. Globally, the number drops to $398M.

I know most of you are thinking two things. First, “What does this have to do with ‘print ’?” and second, “I don’t work with [or ‘I’m not one of ’] the Global 2000 companies, so why should I care?” That’s precisely the thinking the bad guys count on.

In today’s hyper-networked world, the “Internet of Everything” radically transforms who can impact our lives simply by what we’re connected to. While it may have been “hip” to be within six degrees of Kevin Bacon 30 years ago, today nearly everyone is within 2 or 3 degrees—whether willingly or not—of almost everyone else on the planet. This can be cool or catastrophic, but prudence tells us to hope for the best while preparing for the worst. One major $450M breach of a Global 2000 organization would send shockwaves around the earth. If more than one were hit with any sort of sequential proximity, regional and local economies would be devastated. It’s a domino effect with real-life repercussions that wipe out real-life people. In other words, the network innovations that make today’s world more convenient have, in many cases, exhausted the infrastructure designed to keep it safe. Never before have so many targets of hacker opportunity had so much impact on other organizations or, for that matter, so many network back doors to exploit. The closest of these is sitting at the end of your desk waiting for your next print job.

You see a pr inter. A hacker sees a flashing neon “Open for Business” sign.

Printers have traditionally been viewed within organizations as little more than the source of periodic headaches, for IT and end-users alike, when they fail. This is also what makes them the perfect attack vector. The bad guys know that most organizations

are “printer heavy” and do a poor job of maintaining device accountability on their networks. They also know that there is a human element to network exploits that manifests itself through printer performance issues. Finally, hackers have shown us through a range of activity that printers are their preferred target; and ultimately the “crown jewel” in the $450M threat exposure of U.S. enterprises. When it comes to printers, our collective ignorance has made business steady, reliable, and all-too-easy to exploit for anyone who would like to do us harm. Combatting this, although counter to conventional wisdom, starts with understanding the three fundamental realities of printer exploits:

Reality 1: T hat which doesn’t kill you...eventually will.

“Knowing what ’s on your network” means more than just having a physical inventory of your devices. It means having a real-time, self-updating knowledge of authorized, unauthorized, and unattended devices, and the connectivity characteristics of each to every network node. While time-consuming and complex, knowing the terrain of the battlefield you’re fighting on is always crucially important. This is why it ’s the first of 20 Critical Security Controls (CSC’s) outlined by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), the SANS Institute, and a consortium of security-focused organizations like the NSA, Departments of State and Homeland Security and several bureaus from the UK. (http://www.sans.org/critical-security-controls/)

The importance of this step cannot be overstated. Think of hackers as a pack of wolves and your printers as a herd the wolves are hunting. The pack works together to move the herd, culling its ranks so that the young or old, weak or lame start to fall out of the protection of the group and become easy prey. If you don’t know with certainty what devices are where, how they interact, how they’re configured, and to whom they are talking, then you’ve already thinned your herd for the wolves. The only thing they have to do now is go in for the kill. And to them, that’s fun.

R e a l i t y 2 : T h e H u m a n - P r i n t e r relationship isn’t ‘Love-Hate’. It’s ‘Hate-Hate More’.

When the best-case scenario that a technology asset can provide is “perform as expected,” then failure and disappointment

are imminent. Such is the case with printers. That is, you’re FAR more likely to hear echoes of end-users complaining about jams, lost print jobs, low toner, spots on pages, etc., than you’re ever to hear them rave about the “blow-your-hair-back” performance a printer delivered when rendering a page of 12-point, Times New Roman text. End-users want printers to do what they ’re supposed to do: print well. Any exception to this creates what we affectionately call “grief,” and grief, like plutonium, must be carefully controlled because it’s radioactive and will cause organizational cancer with prolonged exposure.

The most obvious side effect of grief, naturally, is lost productivity. However, the impact of failing to conduct good l i f ecyc le management pract ices and targeted inventory refresh activity (which help prevent gr ief ) extends through the human element into the heart of cybersecurity. Intuitively, we know that end-user compliance with security policies rapidly degrades as workplace satisfaction deteriorates. We also know that one of the leading contributors to end-user complaints is poorly functioning print devices. A healthy print environment, therefore, directly correlates to avoiding a number of the human-initiated vulnerabilities (like phishing campaigns) that can bring networks—and networks of networks—to their knees. Considering that many of the destructive malware strains contained in these attacks propagate throughout networks via print device processors or known vulnerabilities in OS print spoolers (ref: Stuxnet, Duqu, Flame), it’s more than just good form for organizations to improve their “human-printer” dynamic. It may be—in a very real sense—a matter of survival.

Reality 3: It’s not a printer. It’s a hacker welcoming committee...that prints.

Network-based attacks on printers, although often misunderstood, have a long and sordid track record across both public and private domains. While such attacks typically present themselves as print job replicator or reverse-IP proxy breaches (providing hackers with unauthorized copies of printed files or hacked communication protocols that provide full access to network resources, respectively), recent activity of other exploits are also headlining network disasters. Neglect-borne naivety has given rise to an alarming number of printer-based SSH hijacks (compromising security of,

among other things, transactions over the Internet) and DDoS attacks (which can completely stop and hold hostage normal business operations), both of which make any organization in any industry a prime target, but are of particular concern in healthcare, financial services, insurance, and public verticals.

Enabling these exploits is the print device architecture itself. Even while embedded in a network environment, printers are almost universally configured to communicate over the Internet with OEM servers, independent of firewalls and other perimeter security measures. This means that the very nature of their design makes them immune to the benefits of intrusion prevention systems and creates an exploitable back door for network hacking and malware injections. If printers are digitally signed by the OEM prior to shipment from the factory, managing certificate validity typically terminates at the end of the assembly line. This means that a non-managed, permanent network trust relationship could give hackers “circle of trust” access to your data. Think it can’t happen to you? Well, it’s happened to the Pentagon, a Department of Navy weapons lab, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and, according to a Quocirca study, 63% of the companies in Germany, France, and the UK.

“There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity.” General Douglas MacArthur shared this insight as an unconventional war was developing in Korea.

Now, in a s epa r a t e , ye t pa r a l l e l , unconventional war—a cyberwar—the quote gains new applicability. It’s a timeless reminder that security requirements evolve with innovation and require constant v igi lance and adaptabi l i t y.

MARKET TRENDS

Although the printing industry stays attractive by continuously launching new technologies, such as Memjet, Solid Ink and 3D printers, traditional laser and inkjet technologies still dominate and lead the printing industry. As such, the competition is getting fiercer.

In September, 2011, Epson officially launched its inkjet printer for business printing. After that, all of the inkjet manufacturers changed their business strategy and shifted to the laser printer market. In this scenario, there was a high probability for a commercial war between inkjet and laser printer manufacturers.

Middle Market I n S e p t e m b e r 2 0 1 1 , E p s o n

launched the Workforce series printer in the middle business printing market. The printers were marketed as having fast page-per-minute outputs and high page yield cartridges, enabling users to experience fast printing at lower costs.

High-End MarketHP and Brother have also changed their market strategy with the one

used by Epson. HP launched OFFICEJET PRO X series printer to the high end color printing market, while Brother focused more on the high end monochrome market. However, both machines had the same POS, which is fast PPM output and low printing cost.

Based on the ppm and cpp figures shown, HP Office Pro X meets premium market

demands excellently.

Based on these figures, Brother appears to be competitive in the high

end SFP market.

These days, the focus is shifting towards how apps can be used to maximize printing tools, enhance functionality, and increase user productivity.

Nigel Paull, country manager of Kyocera Document Solutions New Zealand, revealed that the market has shifted from box selling to solutions selling. With the growing number and variety of apps being launched online, resellers need to make sure they are abreast of the latest tech-based offerings and use them to upgrade the benefits they can offer to their customers.

Kyocera Document Solutions did just that by launching Teaching Assistant, an app that targets the education market.

The said program is designed to assist teachers in formulating tests and in automating grading. The latter process involves scanning the answered sheets onto a multifunction device in order to enable automatic marking.

A s i d e f r o m t h o s e funct ions ment ioned, teachers can get analyses on student performance, as well as areas for improvement and classroom instruction.

Paull explained that the education sector is an important market for Kyocera, which recently sold 50 MFPs equipped

with a customized scanning app to Kristin School.

“We’re talking to more and more schools about document scanning. It ’s an area where some schools have fallen behind,” the country manager said.

He also said that Teaching Assistant can help resellers get the chance to start new conversations with clients in the education sector.

“For resellers dealing with schools this is something that’s ideal to talk about. It’s got limited or next to no competition in the market and can offer real value for schools,” he added.

Kyocera highlighted the cost-effective feature of the software due to the fact that plain paper can be used to print answer keys. There is no need to use special systems to produce them.

Teaching Assistant is available for a 30-day no-obligation trial to schools,

u n i v e r s i t i e s , a n d e x t e r n a l education/training institutions.

However, Kyocera’s new offering is not the only innovation

that is seen to pave the way for the future of printing.

“It’s not about speeds and feeds anymore. It ’s about apps and understanding

what your customer needs and how to utilize tools to make their lives easier and more productive,” the country manager said.

He explained that consumers now are seeking multiple function devices that can accommodate a variety of tasks, such as mobile printing, mobile scanning, cloud technology, document archiving, and retrieval. The focus is now on offering “integrated solutions.”

Paull also spoke about the importance of understanding what systems customers are using now.

“Data archiving and retrieval is growing and being able to make documents available to the mobile workforce is becoming more and more important. Reports show 37% of the workforce is mobile now,” he shared.

“As technology becomes more mobile, integration is going to become more and more important. You’re going to have to overlay integrated apps with security requirements.”

“That puts resellers who can sell the added benefits or value in a good position. It’s the key to making money. If you’re just selling a box you’re in a race to the death basically,” he concluded.

Paull summed up his discussion by saying that “integration is the big buzz word.”

Low-End Market Laser printers have been dominating the

monochrome printing market throughout the past years. To challenge this dominance, Epson launched three inkjet monochrome printer models in 2011. These printers were equiped with high-volume cartridges, with yields reaching 1000 pages. Ultimately, these products bowed to the competition because of the high CPP. Later, Epson launched the WorkForce Pro WP-M printer – which had less CPP (1811ml cartridge) and operated like a laser model. Meanwhile, HP also changed its strategy and launched the monochrome HP Officejet Pro and MFPs in order to exclude Epson from the market.

The giants of inkjet, such as EPSON, HP, and Brother, have launched a series of new inkjet printers to compete with laser printers. Canon did not release new printers in the high end market but kept focusing on professional image printing. However, we do

believe that Canon will eventually pay more attention to the inkjet business printing market.

We need to change our old way of thinking because so many inkjet printers have already been launched to compete with laser printers. The war between inkjet and laser, as it stands now, has become inevitable. For us aftermarket players, we must be aware of market trends and demands – something we at Ninestar are doing now.

U.S. Supreme Court Accepts Lexmark’s Trademark Infringement AppealFor a decade now, Lexmark International has been involved in a legal dispute over patented microchip-equipped toner cartridges with Static Control Components, a company based in Sanford, North Carolina.

The latter, which mainly remanufactures laser printer toners, has sold and refilled toner cartridges produced by the Kentucky-based Lexmark – which is the core issue that is being battled out in court by both parties.

The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals had already made a decision on the said case in March 2012. However, Lexmark filed an appeal to reinstate the trademark infringement lawsuit that Lexmark filed against Static Control.

In response, the Supreme Cour t granted the request of the international manufacturer of printing products. As such, the dispute over printer microchip patents with Static Control remains active and is still ongoing.

Renowned tech company Konica Minolta has poured a round a b i l l ion na i r a , equivalent to 6.4 million U.S. dollars, in Nigeria in the last few months.

This announcement was made by Izzat Debs, Managing Director of Skysat Technologies Ltd. – which is a partner company of the international print machine manufacturer – at the opening salvo of the Konica print solutions exhibition in Abuja. The said event used the theme “Productivity and Profitability Come Alive.”

He said that this investment involved the training of local technicians in Germany, as well as setting up Konica Minolta showrooms and offices around the country.

While speaking at the exhibition, he also explained that the machines that the Japan-based company makes can be used by both commercial establishments and corporate entities in order to fulfill their printing needs.

"By deploying K o n i c a M i n o l t a r a n g e o f d i g i t a l printing machines

in Nigeria, we are contributing to the digitization of printing in the country as well as improving on the local economy," Debs added.

Dr. Samuel Ortom, Nigeria’s Minister of State for Trade and Investment, appeared to agree with Debs’ statement. "We are convinced that the exhibition of an array of Konica Minolta machines will further drive investment in the printing sector," he said.

Steven Amuche, Special Adviser to the Minister, represented Dr. Ortom at the exhibit. He encouraged all government departments, ministries, and agencies, as well as those in the private sector, "to take advantage of the printing exhibition and develop partnerships for enhanced economic growth of Nigeria."

In addition, Debs talked about how the positive results of an exhibition done in Lagos early this year prodded

Konica Minolta to hold the same one in Abuja. He also a n n o u n c e d t h a t there will be another exhibit in the country at Port Harcourt.

Recent updates about the revolutionary uses of 3D printers and the many possibilities that 3D printing technology offers have stirred up considerable attention from both the press and the general public alike.

The release of Blender 2.67 is no different. This is mainly due to the fact that it is an open source program that includes the much-hyped 3D Printing Toolbox – which has features that enables it to count an object’s volume and area, check whether the said object has errors like distorted sections and overhangs, and do cleanup activity. In addition, it also allows users quick access in exporting files to STL, PLY, and other commonly-used manufacturing file formats.

“The outcome is a set of tools to help designing objects that will print given some known limits that the technology currently has,” said Dolf Veenvliet, who has been hired by the Blender Community to work on a training DVD course that helps users learn how to manipulate the newly released software.

This new development is seen as a timely one due to the fact that there are increasing numbers of affordable 3D printers in the market now. There are some that can even be acquired at less than $1000, paving the way for home use and the creation of personalized items such as jewelry and miniature replicas of various objects of arts. Some have even begun making a business out of selling items churned out of a 3D printer.

At present, 3D printing market is estimated to be a $777 million industry – and counting. There are projections that place its potential growth to balloon to $8.4 billion by year 2025.

Since the technology is relatively new

to most, despite the fact that it has been around for 30 years now, there is the expected “learning curve” that amateur “tinkerers” need to go through. There is also the question of whether the said technology will be adopted by current desktop PC users due to the apparent complexity of the process of designing and printing in 3D.

In answer to this issue, here is an insightful passage taken out of a page in Chris Anderson’s book “Makers: The Industrial Revolution”:

“As with first laser printers, 3-D printing is still a bit expensive and hard to use; it's not yet for everyone…

When desktop publishing was first introduced, tens of thousands of people discovered that they knew nothing about fonts, kerning, text flow, anchors, and all that...

Today, with the spread of desktop fabrication tools, a generation of amateurs is also being suddenly confronted with the baffling language and techniques of professional industrial design, just as they were in the desktop publishing era.”

This is what Blender sought to address with the release of Blender 2.67. Although the said community cannot really do anything to improve actual 3D printing devices, it saw that it can at least simplify the 3D object designing process.

Previously, Blender only offered tools that users can use to assess 3D models and calculate production costs. These were considered merely “tinkerer tools.” But this changed with the launch of Blender 2.67 and its helper tools and instructional DVD course – which is currently only available in digital format.

Although industry pundits and avid 3D

printing fans are excited about this new release and its many possibilities, there still are some improvements that can be made to Blender 2.67.

Here is what Dolf has to say on this aspect:

“I expect the tools we are adding now to get a lot of feedback from the community over the next couple of months. And I am sure they will come up with some very useful additions and modifications that I can not foresee at all.”

Bart Veldhuizen, one of the figures behind Blendernation.com and is now one of Shapeways’ associates, said that Blender could use more CAD and modeling tools for better product development, as well as tools that allow users to calculate structural strength “based on a specific material.”

However, more important than the development of features considered tinkerer level is the focus on bringing users to designer level.

“We need something that allows people to take a 3D design and ‘make it theirs’. And designers must have the tools to set up their designs so others can modify them,” Dolf said.

A s i d e f r o m t h e c h a l l e n g e o f transforming tinkerers into designers, he also said that taking 3D printing “out of the box” is key to dominating the market.

“I think the company that takes the 3D printer "out of the box" will be the one that changes the game. They are currently all using a limiting area to print on, and built inside something akin to a microwave oven. I'd love to see a robot arm with total freedom of motion. That could also un-limit the at-home printers,” he added.

SANFORD, N.C. – ( June 3, 2013) – The Supreme Court today agreed to hear Lexmark International Inc.’s appeal of Lexmark International, Inc. v. Static Control Components, Inc., the August 29, 2012 decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit that re-instated three of Static Control’s unfair competition counterclaims against Lexmark.

Although the legal disputes between Lexmark and Static Control have centered primarily on allegations by Lexmark of patent infringement, copyright infringement, and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, none of those issues is involved in the case before the Supreme Court. All of the jury verdicts in favor of Static Control and against Lexmark on those claims remain final. The Court’s action also does not affect the district court’s determination that Lexmark’s “Prebate” program is not enforceable as a patent license under patent law, a decision that the Sixth Circuit let stand.

The question that will be heard by the Supreme Court is limited to the legal issue of when a company has the legal right, known as “standing,” to assert a claim for false advertising under the federal law known as the Lanham Act. Different courts of appeals historically have applied different tests. Several courts (the Seventh, Ninth, and Tenth Circuits) apply a “categorical” test giving standing only to competitors. Three other courts (the Third, Fifth, and Eleventh Circuits) apply by

analogy the same test courts use to evaluate antitrust claims. The Sixth Circuit and the Second Circuit look to whether the plaintiff can demonstrate a “reasonable interest” that is protected under the Lanham Act.

William London, Static Control’s general counsel, reacted to the Court ’s decision today: “Static Control’s counterclaims allege that Lexmark targeted Static Control’s products with false advertising statements, and as a result Static Control incurred harm to its business and goodwill. This is precisely the type of conduct that is p roh i b i t e d by t h e Lanham Act, and past case law affirms Congress ’s intention in such

circumstances to protect companies like Static Control. While Static Control regrets that the Court chose this case as the vehicle to clarify the differences among the tests applied by the different courts of appeal, we are confident that at the end of the day Static Control will continue to have standing to pursue its claims and obtain redress for the harms caused by Lexmark’s unfair competition and anticompetitive practices.”

The Sixth Circuit ’s August 29, 2012 opinion also found that Static Control was entitled to pursue its counterclaims against

Lexmark for antitrust violations and false advertising under North Carolina state law. Those claims are not affected by the

grant of certiorari by the Supreme Court. The Sixth Circuit case is Static Control Components, Inc. v. Lexmark International, Inc., 697 F.3d 387 (6th Cir. 2012).

HP Adds Two New Models in Envy Printer Series In late May of this year, Hewlett-Packard introduced the Envy 4500 e-All-in-One and the Envy 5530 e-All-in-One multifunction printers. These are just 2 of the new releases that HP has lined up, which also included various computer models.

Both machines are new additions to the

Envy series of printers of the multinational IT company. Although there is nothing revolutionary in the said products, both feature wireless Internet connectivity that has become in vogue among printers of late.

The aforementioned feature allows users to manage printing operations remotely not only with desktop PCs but also with tablets and smartphones. With this, you can print to the machine no matter where you are in the world as long as the printer is connected to the Web. You can also send news and coupons to the printers through the HP Printables feature, as well as scan images and documents on the machines and send them to your mobile devices.

Aside from wireless connectivity, the new models boast of a compact design and a cost-effective functionality suitable for home use. The Envy 4500 e-All-in-One and the Envy 5530 e-All-in-One have a duplex printing mode, which is ideal for making drafts. Both also have a 5-ppm print speed rate in color and 9 ppm in black.

There i s an op t ion to u se h igh-capacity ink cartridges. Using Hewlett-Packard’s Instant Ink subscription service is recommended for hassle-free replenishment.

Prices and release date has not been revealed so far. However, these details may be available at some point during summer.

HP’s quarterly report released late May showed that the largest PC manufacturer in the world is still experiencing a low revenue slump, dipping as low as 32%.

According to the latest report, this is the 7th consecutive quarter that Hewlett-Packard has posted decreasing revenues. The 10 percent decline in earnings for the most recent quarter was the biggest so far.

The IT juggernaut slid into new lows even as it scrambles to create new products in response to the changing needs of consumers, who demand more versatile and less costly electronic devices in the wake of the introduction of innovative gadgets by competitors.

Meg Whitman, who has led HP since September 2011, had warned about this revenue slump in the early days of her leadership.

S he has cons tant l y sa id tha t the company ’s earnings may not go on an upward trend for the next year or two as she makes necessary changes within HP, such as product line overhauls and cost-cutting measure implementations, as well as getting into more lucrative niches like data analysis, storage and tech consulting, and business software.

Whitman stressed that Hewlett-Packard is still on a “multi-year journey.” Despite the declining earnings, she said that she is “encouraged by our performance in the second quarter, and I feel good about the rest of the year.”

Her statement, accompanied by HP’s predictions that its revenues for the next

quarter will be better than the projections expected by industry analysts, shows that there is indeed reason for the company to be optimistic. And investors are taking cues from this, seeing this as a sign that Whitman’s strategy appears to be working despite the drop in sales.

After the quarterly results have been released, HP’s stock appears to have received a $2.70 (equivalent to 13%) boost, settling at $23.93 during extended trading.

However, when comparing this quarter’s earnings of $1.1 billion with those of the same quarter last year – which reached $1.6 billion – HP’s decline approximates to 32%.

According to the American IT firm, the company would have earned more if they did not have certain items irrelevant to its current business on its roster.

In total, Hewlett-Packard’s earnings amount to $27.6 billion, which is around $400 million below analyst estimates.

The real roots of HP’s problems lie in imprudent acquisitions and a lack of innovation.

The company had been sluggish in responding to the competition and in adapt ing to the changing consumer demands. The release of Apple’s iPhone ushered in the innovative inclusion of voice-recognition technology and touch screens in smartphones. It also required a more dynamic response in order to combat the competition.

When other companies caught on with the trend and equipped their own products with similar features, the prices of these devices fell and became within reach for many. As such, they became the gadget of

choice for more and more consumers, with desktops and laptops losing some of their appeal. Although HP is now selling tablet PCs that run on Android and Windows, it has yet to break into the smartphone market. The company still continued to push its line of PCs into the changing market.

The latest quarter revealed that HP has had difficulty selling PCs. In fact, the earnings in the PC selling division in the company dropped 20 percent in the same quarter. Hewlett-Packard ’s own chief financial officer, Cathie Lesjack, even conceded to this outcome by saying that current market conditions are “very tough.”

With the rise of mobile devices and their increased usage, there is less need for consumers to print information that they can easily look up via their portable gadgets. As such, printing machines face the risk of being regarded as an unnecessary addition to the modern consumer’s lineup of electronic devices.

To counter this, Whitman set her sights on creating new technologies and including them in best-selling products the soonest time possible. She believes this is the original spirit in which the global IT company operated in when it first made its mark as a Silicon Valley pioneer decades ago.

Will her strategy work? It remains to be seen. A suitable opportunity for evaluating the effectivity of Whitman’s approach may be available in the next few months, when HP launches the next batch of PCs with touch-screen features, as well as tablets of various sizes. To increase the appeal of these upcoming releases, HP is said to be selling them at lower price ranges.

HP Still Unable to Rise above Decline in Earnings

Ricoh Reinforces Thermal Paper Production in North AmericaResponding to growing demand and accelerating expansion into the Latin American market

TOKYO, June 5, 2013 — Ricoh Company, Ltd. (President & CEO: Zenji Miura) is to reinforce production line facilities for high value-added thermal paper products, to cater to growing demand in the North American market and pave the way for new market development in Latin America. Approximately 5 billion yen will be invested in new thermal facilities at the Georgia Plant operated by Ricoh's U.S. production subsidiary Ricoh Electronics, Inc. (REI), in order to double the company's annual production capacity in the U.S. .

Ricoh is developing, producing, and marketing durable, high value-added thermal paper mainly for barcodes on food POS, home deliveries, medical supplies, and airline luggage tags and has earned a large share of the market in many regions around the world. All this is underpinned by Ricoh's advanced technologies, which strike a balance between high sensitivity to color at low energy and durability based on the company's many years of technical expertise in areas such as thermal fax paper. Having initially entered this field in the U.S. in 1985, Ricoh has continued to extend its reach steadily since then, and surpassed its target of securing a 50% share of the market in fiscal 2012.

Until now, the process of manufacturing thermal paper (face stock) and liner paper, and processing the end product (adhesion and slit operation), has been split between REI's California and Georgia Plants. Following reinforcements to the production line however, the entire production process will now be handled by the Georgia Plant. This will enable significant improvements in efficiency and production capacity. Manufacturing thermal paper products entirely in North America, instead of making up shortages from Japan and other countries, will enable Ricoh to maintain steady supplies to existing markets and provide customers with faster service. Building on success in North America, Ricoh will establish a customer-oriented production and marketing structure, and accelerate expansion in the Latin American market, thereby tapping into anticipated growth in the future.

The most recent IDC analysis for Q1 showed that the UK print market sank approximately 23% year on year, which is the largest decline among all western European nations in the said period.

The same report also revealed that managed print services (MPS), mobile, and laser printing show the most promise in terms of sales and revenues.

“Laser shipments increased by three per cent, so there are some little upturns," said Phil Sargeant, IDC imaging and hardcopy devices and document solution research program director for Europe. "We feel there is a little more confidence in the channel in regards to consumers in the laser market,” he added.

He also revealed that the main culprit for UK’s slump is the slow inkjet sales, especially

with home-based users.With the release of the more

cost-efficient color laser printers, demand for inkjet models have gradually slowed down and caused a 21% reduction in volume for the past quarter. However, there appears to be a significant switch to MPS.

In the same quarter, print sales have shown a 28% decline. On the other hand, the business print market only posted 8% shrinkage.

Multifunction printers fared better than the standalone models, whether in A3 or A4.

When looking at the market as a whole, HP remains the leading brand. Other major players like Brother, Samsung, Canon and Ricoh have each gained shares in the first quarter, more than that acquired in the previous year. Sargeant spoke about this

phenomenon:"There are some winners and some losers.

Brother had a very strong quarter, with shipments surpassing those of Epson: 3.5 per cent up on shipments two years ago, and 3.1 per cent up on one year ago. It was highly successful with its ow-cost A3 MFPs, mainly focusing on SMBs and Soho."

The UK makes up 17 percent of the market in Western Europe, which also was plagued by low sales and had decreased 14% in the first quarter year on year.

After showing a MemJet prototype at Drupa last year, Fuji Xerox have fast tracked the final end product, the DocuWide C842 and have even sold one in Australia.

It looks like a fancy copier but it prints at more than 320 square metres per hour all at 1600 x 1600 dpi in CMYK colours and up to 1067mm wide. Water based dye inks are used to print onto cut sheet or roll fed paper.

A wide range of media can be used and printing banners would be no problem up to 5 metres in length. The machine can also print up to 999 copies without interruption.

The unit can be networked and is obviously ideal for poster printers, although laminating would be required for any external installation. A Caldera RIP is supplied.

It is tagged the fastest wide format device currently on the market.

“We were thrilled when Fuji Xerox Australia invited Pegasus Print Group to participate in an early customer acceptance testing program,” said Wayne Finkelde

CEO, Pegasus Print Group, one of the first worldwide customers. “The DocuWide C842 has delivered significant improvements and new opportunities in our business. We have seen processes streamlined and turnaround times greatly reduced. This

technology has the potential to create new markets and create value for our customers In fact, we can already see the benefits for our customers and the new markets we can now serve.”

The Samsung ML-2855/SCX-4828 printers are based on a 30 ppm, 1200 dpi engine. The first page out is stated t o b e unde r 8 . 5 s e conds , and the pr inter comes standard with 64MB of memory,(Expandable to 192MB).Duplexing is also built in. The SCX multi function machines are print/copy/scan and fax capable.

These cartridges do not have a drum cover and come new with a piece of heavy paper taped around the cartridge. (See Figure 1) All new cartridges opened so far have shown some toner leakage on the drum that would have shown on any prints for at least a few pages.

The standard cartridge Samsung part # MLT-D209S (MLT-2092S EU) is rated for 2,000 pages. The HY cartridge Samsung part # MLT-D209L (MLT-2092L EU) is rated for 5,000 pages. As with pretty much all cartridges these days the cartridge has a chip and it has to be replaced each cycle.

Figure A shows the basic machine/cartridge component layout including the paper path with duplexing. The workings are pretty straight forward so we will not go into the theory here.

The HY and LY car tr idges have different supply chambers, see Figures B & C. The LY cartridge has a hollow upper shell with less space for the toner inside and so cannot be made into an HY.

The machines currently based on this engine are:

回顾上半年中国办公打印市场，我们也有必要了解全球市场的基本情况，

数据表明，2012 年全球打印机出货量为 1 亿 8 百万台，其中激光打印机 3800

万台，喷墨打印机 7000 万台，由于全球经济增长放缓，2012 年全球打印机

市场出货量下滑，而中国国内打印机市场在过去的 2012 年也出现了轻微下滑，

打印机市场增长与经济发展有着密切关系。

与欧美市场形成强烈反差的是，2012 年中国激光打印机市场约 740 万台，喷墨打印机市场约 350 万台，欧

美市场喷墨打印机占打印机整体拥有量的比率是 78%，中国只有 32%。过去一直以来，除了“家用选喷墨、

商用选激光”的旧思维之外，用户为了追逐较低的打印成本，兼容耗材、灌粉等耗材使用方式盛行，成为稳定

性更高的黑白激光打印机成了文档打印用户的首选。

厂商一直推进的彩色文印在 2013 年上半年从彩色设备的销售来看没有达到预期，尤其是彩色 MFP 在是

市场上表现欠佳。中国用户超过 80% 的打印需求以黑白文档为主，面向高端行业用户以及集中文印的 A3 复合

机市场，彩色机的占有量只有 10% 左右，较高的彩色打印成本依然是用户考虑最主要的因素。

从过去办公打印市场发展的趋势来看，市场上出现的新产品皆为满足中国用户的需求，然而中国市场不仅

用户基数庞大，用户类型以及具体需求层次差异非常大，广阔的地域分布也让打印设备需要更强的适应性。

目前中国用户需求趋势集中归纳为以下几点：1、用户需要更低的整体拥有成本；2、用户需要更高的稳定性；

3、用户需要更好的用户体验；4、内容服务以及解决方案也成为部分用的需求之一；5、用户需要更环保更绿

色的产品；6、移动化办公需求增加。

所以，我们在未来会看到越来越多的低成本的打印设备，同时产品的性能、功能、稳定性、易用性都会得

到相应的提升，而且支持无线网络、支持智能设备、支持远程管理以及远程打印。

在未来，市场上出现的新品将围绕用户需求而进行开发，国外品牌更加重视增长快速的中国市场，为中国

用户定制将成为 2013 年的主旋律。

A Good Opportunity for National Consumables Brands to Transform and Upgrade

打印耗材企业转型升级是民族品牌耗材的利好时机（上）作者：郑西振

目前，我国正处在全力推动经济转

型，加快产业升级的关键时期，经济产

业正在努力向高技术含量、高附加值产

业转型，经济结构也在逐步转向“创新、

绿色、环保、低碳”的新主题。

我国的打印耗材产业经过二十多年

的快速发展，中国民族打印耗材产业发

生了巨大变化，民族打印耗材制造企业

已达到近 2000 家，并从模仿仿制、低质

低价的兼容耗材步入优质优价的兼容产

品或为原装厂商的配套产品，打造成民

族品牌耗材，已迈向成熟时期；同时已

走向为客户提供环保，低碳、质优价廉

的民族品牌耗材的新阶段。民族打印耗

材产业已成为世界打印耗材的研发中心、

生产加工基地及全球的销售中心和集散

地。因此，中国打印耗材产业为我国经

济发展、增加就业、推动创新，促进办

公设备与耗材行业的技术进步等方面发

挥了日益重要的作用。

但是，目前民族打印耗材企业的发

展呈现出诸多问题，面临严峻的挑战。这

不仅仅是外部环境的变化引起的，还包括

企业自身的问题。因此，民族打印耗材企

业如何克服自身缺陷，加快转型升级的步

伐，促进健康合理的发展越来越受到各界

的关注。特别是“十二五”时期是全面

建设小康社会的关键时期，深化改革开

放，加快转变经济发展方式的攻坚时期。

这就对打印耗材企业的发展提出了更高

的要求，并把企业的转型升级摆在了国

家战略高度，因而打印耗材企业转变经

济发展方式，实现转型升级迫在眉睫。

企业转型升级就是企业为了动态适

应外部环境或内部条件的变化，或为了

利用潜在的机会，从一个战略转向另一

个战略，并不断创造新的竞争优势，以

企业所面临的外部环境及自身的缺陷

我国的打印耗材企业在全球经济复

苏放缓和不确定性、原装厂商的挤压、

人民币升值、国内外市场萎缩、生产成

本上升等因素影响下，大部分企业发展

受阻，步履艰难。

( 一 ) 打印耗材企业所面临的外部环

境

1. 我国打印耗材行业的发展壮大，

对原装耗材制造商的经济利益构成了直

接威胁，原装厂商改变市场战略和手段，

遏制打印耗材企业发展。

2012 年，打印耗材行业硝烟滚滚，

发生在原装与再生行业、与耗材制造商

之间、甚至原装厂商之间的战事不断，

法律诉讼多过以往任何一年。一方面是

由于受全球经济低迷的影响，打印耗材

行业整体表现出下滑的趋势；另一方面，

一些新技术设备也在一定程度上减少了

打印需求。因此，原装厂商意图寻求以

其它方式重获市场份额，希望夺回被再

生耗材行业占有的 30% 的市场份额，专

利就成了原装厂商追杀再生行业的利器

或技术壁垒。

2. 原装厂商在未来很长的一段时间

内还需要依赖耗材产品在成熟市场的利

润来维持企业的整体盈利能力，因此，

他们还会通过各种手段保护既有的市场。

诸如：利用首次销售原则来阻止海外生

产的再生耗材进入美国市场；手中握有

大量专利的打印行业巨头通过法院 337

调查和美国国际贸易委员会（ITC）保护

其知识产权和专利；使用和频繁更新芯

片固件技术；利用打印管理服务（MPS）

模式，或者其它销售模式将耗材绑定在

服务合同上，或将耗材与打印机捆绑销

售；或将打印耗材升级、涨价；向个性化、

定向设计产品；向彩色化生产的转移等

等。

3. 近年来，我国制定了一系列促进

中小企业发展的政策措施，中小企业发

展条件和环境有了明显改善，发展质量

和水平有了较大提高，但固有的结构调

整难、资金融通难、技术改造难、三角

债清理难等“四难”问题与新面临的用

工荒、用电荒、高成本、高税负“两荒

两高”困难相互交织、相互叠加，再加

上激烈的兼容耗材市场竞争导致“价格

战”频发，阻碍了行业的良性发展，给

企业生存和发展带来了较大冲击。

（二）打印耗材企业自身的缺陷

1. 在兼容耗材市场中，竞争、价格

战已经成为各品牌兼容耗材厂商抢占市

场的手段。究其根本原因就是企业的产

品同质化严重，对用户需求的把握不清

晰，没有真正的去分析、研究用户的打

印需求，导致产业核心竞争力的下降。

2. 由于大部分打印耗材企业是“弱、

小、散”、装备水平和生产技术较为落

后、专业人才短缺、技术创新能力弱、

缺乏自主知识产权和品牌、产品技术含

量不高、附加值低，不具有定价能力和

议价能力，主要依靠“低成本、低价格、

低利润”参与竞争．因此，无法及时应

对和转嫁上游各类投入成本（如原材料、

环境、劳动力）的变动和增加，无法获

得竞争优势。

（三）近年来，国家政府为推动中

小企业转型升级制定了若干优惠政策和

举措

1. 完善政策措施，发挥政府引导作

用。政府正着力优化中小企业发展环境，

增强中小企业发展的活力和内生动力。

加强财税支持和改善金融服务相结合。

改善金融服务，缓解中小企业融资难。

对符合国家产业政策和环保政策的中小

企业加大信贷投放力度。大力推动中小

金融机构发展．加快培育信用担保机构，

完善中小企业信用担保体系，建立中小

企业信用再担保体系，对中小企业融资

担保执行优惠担保费率，降低企业融资

成本。加强财税支持，减轻中小企业负

担。扩大中小企业发展专项资金规模，

采用直接资助、财政担保、贷款贴息等

多种财政支持方式重点支持中小企业的

自主创新项目。进一步加大结构性减税

政策力度；拓展多渠道融资，营造中小

企业发展的良好环境；据了解，珠海将

以增强打印耗材企业国际竞争力为目标，

出台新的打印耗材产业政策，加大对打

印耗材产业的资源投入。具体内容为“四

个突出”：突出引导企业进园区发展，

鼓励企业兼并重组，提高产业集中度 ; 突

出支持企业实施自主创新、知识产权和

品牌战略，增强产业核心竞争力 ; 突出支

持各类服务平台建设，提高产业配套服

务能力 ; 突出支持企业开展循环再造和清

洁生产，提高企业安全环保意识。

2. 打印复印用通用耗材已正式纳入

中央国家机关政府集中采购目录，2013

年已有 43 家打印耗材定点供应商、31

家办公用品定点供应商提供办公用品和

打印耗材及相关服务；

3. 打印复印耗材的国家标准基本完

善、不再缺失。可以指导企业生产和市

场销售，进一步促进企业技术进步。

Reclclaims 2013

6 月 18-20 日，2013 年

Reclamais 南美展在巴西圣保

罗如期举行。Reclamais 是南

美再生耗材行业最具影响力的

展会之一。众多通用耗材制造

商都参加了这一展会。巴西作

为金砖四国之一，在墨盒回收

利用方面近些年发展迅速。

巴西当地以葡萄牙语为

主，中国企业在展览上，由于

语言障碍，很多时候和当地客

人只能相对一笑去沟通。建议

下一年前往巴西参展的企业，

提前请好葡萄牙语的翻译，这

会更有效率。巴西到中国路途

遥远，巨大的时间成本也是广

大参展商需要考虑的因素。

展会现场大约有 88 个展

位，基本与去年持平，但是由

于很多制造商都与当地企业建

立了合作关系，今年的参展商

数量要更多一些。有些展位上

会出现好几家公司的 LOGO，

这让人很难分辨出展位是哪家

公司的。这样的展位基本是合

伙企业或当地公司所有，代表

来自美国或中国的多个品牌。

同时，今年的参展商反映，去

年当地的一些大的参展商，今

年没有展出产品，人流量上也

不如去年多。

J a d i 、 G r e e n r i c h 、

Chinamate、Apex 及其他再

生行业的著名企业都参加了这

一展会。但是，有些公司仅仅展

示了他们的 Logo，并且只是派出

了几名高级职员参加。他们以其

巴西的合作同行作为这一市场渠

道的接入点。

巴西被认为是一个快速增长

的新兴市场，人们对该国的经济

增长抱有较高的期望。然而，巴

西政府把再生墨盒看作是一种“电

子垃圾”，颁布了不鼓励再生产

品进入其市场的政策。另一方面，

新推出的产品可以以很低的价格

比较容易地进入这一市场。

尽管如此，当前巴西市场上

拥有大量的全新兼容墨盒，这极

大地伤害了当地再制造耗材产品

的市场。我们再生行业应该认真

思考制定再生行业的根本目标。

我们还需要坚持我们的核心价值

观：再循环、再利用、减量化。

再生行业的人们已经开始呼吁变

革，回归到行业的最初目标。因此，

行业的引领者们，应该思考如何

有效得培育该行业，更多地鼓励

再生产品。

2013 年圣保罗耗材展已经

在圣保罗的人民暴乱中有惊无险

地结束。2014 年，我们再相见，

Ciao ！

Liu Ying, HP: Color Laser Products have Huge Potential

惠普刘颖：彩激产品未来潜力巨大

随着我国经济的高速发展，企业之

间往来文书，票据日趋增多。在这种情

况下，文印量也随之上升，打印机等文

印设备自然也就成为了企业必不可少的

输出工具。不过很多企业在选购的时候

通常以价格较低的黑白激光打印机为主，

而价格更高的彩色激光打印机则少有问

津。在被问及理由的时候，通常的回复

则是黑白机价格低，后期便宜，彩色机

价格高，功能浪费等等。那么相比之下，

是否后者真的处于劣势呢？今天我们就

有幸请到了中国惠普有限公司打印机与

耗材产品事业部市场开发经理刘颖女士

来为大家解读这个问题。

彩激产品热度逐渐走高

近年来彩激产品性能日益提升、价

格逐步走低，其优势日益凸显。随着商

务办公领域彩色文印的应用不断增多，

用户对“色彩提升企业与个人竞争力”

的意识不断增强，再加上激光产品特有

的稳定性好、兼容性高等优势，彩激产

品在市场上的比重不断提升。市场调研

数据显示，今年第一季度中国激光打印机市场中，彩色激光打印机的关注比例持续上升，达到 28.9%。

刘颖女士表示，彩激市场目前主要

呈现出了平民化，功能多样化以及应用

智能化的特点。随着彩激技术的发展以

及产品线的日益丰富，彩激与黑白激光

产品的价差日益缩小，惠普就推出了价

格在 2000 元以内的彩激产品 CP1025。

这在很大程度上促进了彩激在中小企业

甚至个人用户当中应用的普及。

在功能方面，用户的需求已经从以

往的单一打印功能逐渐向多功能需求过

度，而彩激产品自然也同期衍生出了集

成打印、复印、扫描与传真等功能的多

功能一体机。

最后是应用层面，从目前市场的反

馈来看，操作简便的产品更受欢迎。这

就要求文印厂商提供的产品必须具有更

高的智能化。比如惠普就将智慧驱动、

智能双面打印、智能化彩色打印管理等

技术嵌入到文印产品当中。这对于提升

用户的使用体验较有好处。

彩激应用尚有洼地未来潜力巨大

虽然黑白激光产品在企业当中的应

用已经十分普及，但在涉及到一些对效

果要求的输出时，还是很难满足用户的

需求。彩激产品也正是在这种情况下逐

渐发展起来的。

刘颖女士认为，企业办公对彩激的

需求其实一直都在，只是有些受工作属

性、企业风格等因素的影响被提前发掘

出来，而有些尚未发掘。

彩激的应用需求从行业划分看来，

在设计、教育、电子商务以及餐饮、婚庆、

酒店、旅游等广泛服务业已得到相当广

泛的应用。按职业分布来看，设计师、

市场、销售、财务、编辑等是目前彩激

需求较为旺盛的人群。

彩激的很多优势，有时只有亲身体

验后才知道。比如一份策划案或标书，

用黑白输出同样可以展现它的主要观点，

但却无法做到重点突出、层次分明。彩

色的文档在表现力、吸引力方面具有黑

白所不能替代的优势，可有效提升用户

的市场竞争力，帮助其成为所在行业的

“明星”。

彩激使用成本高是误区

在用户的惯性思维当中，彩激产品

的后期使用成本也一定会高于黑白激光

产品，但事实并非如此。刘颖女士表示，

彩激打印的成本高是一直存在的一个误

区，根据惠普专业实验室的测试表明，

如果只是打印黑白文档，是不消耗彩色

硒鼓的，所以其单页输出成本与黑白激

光相当，惠普的某些彩激打黑白的单页

成本甚至比黑白激光打黑白更节省，因

此，如果用户购买了彩激，这就意味着

用户不仅能够以低廉成本满足日常黑白

文档输出的需求，而且能够借助彩色文

印以及更加丰富的应用，让工作和生活

更出彩。

彩激和黑白激光产品将优势互补

由于业务的发展，很多企业逐渐产

生了对彩色输出的需求。但在谈到彩激

产品是否会替代黑白激光产品时，刘颖

女士表示，彩色激光打印机打印黑白文

档的质量与黑白激光机并无差异。从这

个角度讲，如果企业对彩色输出的需求

量大于黑白输出，综合彩激在打印成本

上的优势，用彩激产品替代黑白激光产

品并无不可。

但对于预算有限，或者彩色输出暂

不是刚性需求的用户来说，现阶段黑白

激光打印机依然是这类用户的主要选择。

其实，彩激和黑白激光并非对立关系，

因为功能各异，侧重不同。在未来也将

是一种优势互补的关系。

Poor Market Prospect? 3D Printer Manufacturer MakerBot Considered for sale

市场前景黯淡？传 3D 打印厂商MakerBot 考虑出售

近日，有海外媒体报道，总部位于

纽约的著名 3D 打印机制造商 MakerBot

Industries 公司考虑出售该公司，目前

正与卖家进行接触。但这一消息未被

MakerBot Industries 公司确认，该公司

发言人表示不会对市场传闻或猜测发表

任何评论。

3D 打印机技术在近两年崛起速度之

快，令人难以想象。包括福特公司、波

音公司等都已经应用或考虑应用 3D 打印

技术来制造设备的零部件。3D 打印技术

在医疗领域和太空探索等领域也将有着

更多发展空间。

而作为全球著名的 3D 打印机制造商

MakerBot Industries 公司成立已有 4 年

时间，其去年的营收约为

1000 万美元，预计今年营

中国企业需走技术换市场之路Chinese Companies to Expand Markets by Technical Progress

CHINA PRINT 2013 落下帷幕，盛

况仍旧萦绕在印刷人的脑海中，本次展

会摒弃了以往举办开幕式的惯例，即便

如此，展期中每日展馆门口人们排队入

馆的漫长队伍、馆内人头攒动的场景、

各个展位上频频的签约仪式、一台台呼

之欲出的全球首发机型，这一切无不佐

证着人们在开展前对此次展会“火爆”

的预期。然而，展会“爆棚”是中国印

刷市场繁荣的象征，可以骄傲但仍需冷

思考。

“火”上需浇点“冷水”

中国印刷市场很“火”、很“热”，

如此朝气蓬勃的一个行业，很难想象，

去年彼时也遭遇过不景气的境况，乃至

去年年底，无论是制造商还是印刷企业

都怨声载道、表示日子很不好过。虽然

今年年初，一些企业表示已经出现回暖

征兆，但是时近 6 月，行业已经全面复

苏了吗？当记者将该问题抛给诸多企业

管理者时，回答大致相同，“复苏谈不上，

只是企业之间业务的此消彼长，壮大的

企业业务增长、弱小的企业遭到淘汰”。

面对该问题，成都新图新材料股份

有限公司副总经理何勇在接受采访时认

为，本届展会令中国印刷人扬眉吐气是

真，但是与国际排名第一的德国德鲁巴

展会相比，我们仍有不足，我国印刷人

需看到这种不足，取长补短，更利于行

业目前的升级。

与德鲁巴相比，他认为，我国印刷

展会目前仍是以展销设备为主，展会氛

围更为喧闹。而德鲁巴则是技术的盛会，

人虽少却精，专业人士多，以安静看技

术的氛围为主。另外，从各展商展位的

设计风格上，凡是参展了去年德鲁巴展

会的展商大多本次展会也都延用了去年

的展出风格。有业内人士称，与德鲁巴

展会的展出面积相比，CHINA PRINT

2013 可以算上是小型的德鲁巴。我国展

会只有由展销到展出技术进行升级，产

业才能达到更高提升。“拿技术来换市

场是必须走的路。”

那么缘何国际市场如此重视此次参

展？何勇答道，中国印刷市场潜力巨大

使然。他更表示，我国印刷人应该看到

这种现实，感到自豪的同时，更应该自省，

不可盲目沾沾自喜，既然国际企业都在

盯着这块蛋糕，我国制造商更应该发奋

图强、做好新技术研发，不要将好的市

场拱手让人，输了主场。

冷静看“全球首发”

“ 全球首发” 在此次展会上的频

频出现着实令国人自豪，这是否意味着

我国印刷技术已经追赶上世界一流水平

呢？多年在德国制造企业浸润、现身处

国内民族制造企业的何勇表示，展会上

“全球首发”的增多是中国成为印刷强

国的表现，国际知名厂商都来中国市场

掘金，这证明我国印刷市场的强大，证

明我国强劲的购买力。但是这并不能片

面地认为，我国印刷市场已经位居国际

一流行列，“全球首发”地理位置的选

择只能说明当地印刷市场的优与劣。

何勇指出，选择设备首发地点，无

外乎两个因素，首先是制造成本因素，

其次是当地购买力因素。需要认清的一

点是，国外印刷发达国家中传统印刷在

缩减，数字印刷在增加，然而目前国内

展会上首发的设备大多以传统印刷领域

为主。

长最为强劲（13.7%），出货量为 530 万台，

在市场中继续位居第二。佳能的增长源于其全

球各地（不含日本）市场的同比增长。

爱普生——尽管出货量同比下滑 26.8%，

但爱普生仍以 390 万台的出货量在全球打

印外设市场中位列前三。与惠普相同，美

国也是爱普生表现最好的市场。爱普生一些主流机型的出货量都有显著增长（如

Workforce WF 和 Workforce Pro）。本季度这些产品继续执行即时返点计划，返点

最高达 50~70 美元。

兄弟 —— 兄弟出货量同比增长高达

10.6%，其在市场中第四的排名得以巩固，本

季度它在五大厂商中增幅表现居于第二。该公

司的市场份额为 20%，同比增加了 4 个百分点。除日本、中东和非洲市场外，兄弟

在全球其他市场的出货量均呈同比增长。

三星——2013 年一季度三星出货量为 170 万

台，同比下滑 2.7%，继续在市场中位居第五。三

星在美国、西欧市场出货量呈同比增长，但在亚太

区（不含日本）、中东和非洲则呈同比下滑。

2013 年第一季度全球打印外设市场出货量下降Global Shipments of Printing Equipment Declined in Q1 2013

据 IDC 全球计算机外围设备季度追

踪报告显示，2013 年第一季度全球打印

外设市场出货量为 2580 万台，同比下滑

9.7%，出货金额为 143 亿美元，同比下

滑 5.7%。这是全球出货金额连续第三个

季度同比下滑。

市场在不断变化，这也带来了战略

和产品组合的改变。许多厂商重点关注的

是移动打印、云打印以及用户如何获取打

印资料。由于许多人每周总有若干时间

会在家里工作或者远程办公，他们就必

须要远程访问公司的资料，许多情况下，

还需要从不同地点应用各种设备连接打

印机打印这些资料。针对上述工作方式，

为企业及用户提供简单便利的打印方式，

成为各厂商需要具备的关键能力。

2013 年第一季度，彩色激光多功

能打印机市场再次同比大幅增长，增幅

达 3.2%，黑白激光多功能打印机紧随其

后，增幅为 0.9%。而彩色喷墨多功能打

印机则继续作为打印外设市场的主力，

其 2013 年一季度出货量占整体市场的

50%。

技术聚焦

1. 喷墨市场，特别是彩色喷墨多功

能打印机仍然是打印外设市场的主力，

喷墨打印机全球总出货量超过 1500 万

台，其中 1300 万台为彩色喷墨多功能打

印机。

2. 2013 年一季度黑白激光产品出

货量继续位居第二（780 万台），而出

货金额则居于首位（55 亿美元）。黑

白激光产品出货量占打印外设市场份额

的 30%，而出货金额的市场份额则达到

39%。

3. 虽然 2013 年一季度彩色激光产

品出货金额占整体打印外设市场份额的

42%，但出货量却仅占 7%。

近日，湖北鼎龙公司发布公告称，

将通过发行股份和支付现金相结合的方

式，购买珠海名图科技有限公司 80% 股

权，交易价格为 2.73 亿元，此外，拟配

套募集资金不超 9092 万元，用于珠海名

图扩大生产经营。

鼎龙股份拟向欧阳彦发行 580 万股

并支付 1224 万元现金，向罗君、胡勋分

别发行 290 万股并支付 612 万元，向左

力发行 145 万股并支付 306 万元，向毛

叔志、段敏敏分别发行 72.5 万股和 153

万元现金对价以分别收购其持有的珠海

名图 32%、16%、8% 和 4% 股权，发行

价格为 16.7 元 / 股，发行数量合计 1450

万股。此外，公司还拟向不超过 10 名特

每只 100g 彩色碳粉核算，需要消耗彩色

碳粉近 200 吨。根据草根调研，鼎龙股

份有望很快完成对 HP 打印机型的彩色碳

粉覆盖，根据公司披露，2012 年珠海名

图有 40% 以上的收入来源于销售 HP 系

列的再生硒鼓。同时，我们注意到多名

珠海名图高管曾在重要兼容耗材企业任

职（总经理毛叔志曾任职天威、销售总

监段敏敏曾任职纳思斯达），相信此次

合作对扩大彩色碳粉的销量有积极推动

作用。

珠海赛纳打印科技股份有限公司助

理总裁臧晓钢：这是打印机里最关键的

一个控制芯片，就是打印机里最核心的

SOC 芯片，这个芯片在全球各个打印机

厂家都不会把这个芯片卖出来，所以自

己的打印机必须要研发自己的 SOC 芯

片，这是个超大规模的芯片，所以它的

技术含量是非常高的，也是难度非常大

的。

记者张晖：这样的一个车间每年可

以生产打印机 30 万台，但是随着市场需

求的进一步扩大这个生产车间已经远远

不能满足生产需求了，目前位于南屏工

业园的赛纳科技奔图打印机的生产车间

正在加紧建设，预计将在 8 月份投入使

用。

赛纳打印机产业园位于南屏科技工

业园内，建成之后的规模为 45 万平方米，

Price Positioning of Yanyangtian Brand

当前，国内通用耗材市场进入了群

雄混战、军阀割据的战国时代，分布全

国各地的生产厂家成为了割据一方的诸

侯，价格作为一把市场利刃被绝大部分

“诸侯”用来作为拓展地盘的武器，而

且有“一招鲜、吃遍天”的感觉，价格

俨然就是增加销量、扩大市场占有率的

最有效最直接的方法。但事实呢？

回望早些年打印机成像卡盒的市场

行情，无论是生产厂家还是渠道商都有

相对丰厚的利润可图，当时的行业起步

门槛低，一些起步早的人随便都可以开

个小店或者开个小厂甚至是家庭式作坊，

靠低质低价就可以抢占到市场，也可以

获得可观的利润回报。在这段

发展时间，一些有品牌理念的

厂家如格之格、天威、艳阳天等，

企业领导者已经看到了五年甚

至十年后的行业发展趋势，他们始终在

坚持着自己的品牌定位，没有随大流地

去一味盲目降价获得短期利益。

在现阶段看来，这种突围是有效的，

这种突围是值得的！在“优胜劣汰”的

市场法则中，他们依然“雄起”；在众

多厂家倒闭之时，他们依然“枝繁叶茂”。

单纯靠价格拼杀出来的市场，只能是“镜

中花、水中月”，很明显价格这把双刃

剑既可以伤到对手，也同时伤害到了自

己。

拿艳阳天品牌来说，南方煜森公司

在保证产品“人无我有、人有我优、人

优我特”的定位上，一直致力于研发新

技术产品、核心专利产品，始终坚持高

端品牌中端价位，同时结合市场认可度

为品牌价格定位，通过优质的品牌质量

和服务赢得市场的认可，扩大自己的市

场影响力从而扩大市场占有率，在近2年，

艳阳天得到了突飞猛进的发展。

当今整个国际经济环境都不理想，

很多耗材的生产商都受到了极大的影响，

原来主要靠出口业务的企业大都开始转

战国内市场，甚至很多一部分厂商为了

清仓变货为现金，努力的低价抛售库存

产品，变成现金之后很多就销声匿迹了。

电子商务的广泛发展更是增加了行业价

格的透明度、利润也变得透明。诸如此

类的种种原因，我们的市场开始退让了，

价格变得愈发混乱，直至现在大家都在

怀疑整个行业！

自深圳市开展“三打两建”以来，

高仿和假冒、三无产品大幅减少，占市

场 20% 的假冒伪劣产品遭到了相关部门

的严厉查处，国家也出台了政策支持通

用耗材品牌的发展，我们有理由相信，

未来 3 年将迎来品牌发展的黄金机遇期。

在市场的大环境中，虽然有不尽如

人意的地方，但也有利好消息的不断传

出。在这种大背景下，艳阳天品牌也将

继续坚持自己的品牌价格定位不动摇，

公司愿意通过开展更深层次的合作解决

市场销售的问题，而不是现在行业简单

的价格“一刀切”；企业也期待与全国

众多拥有品牌理念的企业开展更广泛的

合作，大家“互惠互利、共谋发展”。

纺织品喷墨印花技术是纺织行业未

来的发展趋势，它有别于传统的纺织印

花方法，将印刷及制样合二为一，有效

节约了工艺时间和成本，设计更丰富多

样，因制作过程无废水而更环保。天然

宝杰预见这一发展前景，在国内率先发

起和推广这一技术，并为此研发生产了

水性环保的彩色热升华墨水。此墨水是

当前纺织品精细化学领域的研究热点，

天威率先突破技术瓶颈并在市场占据领

先位置。目前此墨水项目在国内外登记

申请了 5 项专利，占据国内市场超过

30% 的份额，预计后续销售额将以每年

50% 的增长速度递增。

当前国内市场上的陶瓷墨水，特别

是新颖、附加值高的陶瓷喷墨墨水几乎

依赖进口，价格比普通色料高近 20 倍。

天威开发的喷印式彩色陶瓷墨水打破这

一依赖，为国内陶瓷先进制造业带来曙

光。此墨水通过计算机控制直接打印到

陶瓷中，改变传统的胶辊、丝网印刷工

艺，减少浪费，环保节能，提高生产效率，

满足客户个性化需求。它的成功开发还

将促使国内陶瓷喷墨打印技术突破国际

技术壁垒，推动国内陶瓷制作行业的转

型升级。

天然宝杰总经理田永中先生表示：

“我们很高兴天然宝杰这两款墨水能够

获得广东省高新技术产品的认定。我们

将加快企业转型升级的步伐，加大资源

投入，研制出更多科技含量高、应用前

景广阔的产品。”

珠海天然宝杰数码科技材料有限公司：

成立于 2004 年，拥有数百名员工，

年产能超 5000 吨，是中国最大的喷墨墨

水生产基地。自主研发生产的桌面打印、

大幅面喷绘等传统领域的墨水产品，及

纺织印花、UV 墨水等新兴领域的喷墨产

品多达 600 款，远销全球 100 多个国家

Konica Minolta Delivers Higher Quality of Preschool Education with Color Solution

现代幼儿教育越来越依赖各种彩色

输出的文档应用，这不仅是因为色彩绚

丽的图像能够更好地激发幼儿注意力、

增强记忆，而且园内随处可见的多样化

彩色文档创新运用也为树立办学形象、

赢得家长口碑带来了积极作用。

幼教行业彩色解决方案需 " 量身定制 "

幼教行业对彩色输出需求具有其自

身特点。例如，为突出办学特色，越来

越多的幼儿园正采用自己设计、并少量

输出的个性化彩色教材来提高教学质量；

此外也将彩色输出的文档应用在板报、

宣传栏、照片墙等，更容易吸引家长去

了解孩子们丰富多彩的校园生活，从而

获得家长们的一致认可和赞许。

针对这些特点，全球领先的商务解

决方案增值服务商柯尼卡美能达办公系

统（中国）有限公司，为幼儿园用户量

身定制了彩色文档输出解决方案，凭借

用成本的彩色复合机解决方案推荐给了

幼儿园。同时，根据老师实际教育工作

的需求，提供了丰富多彩的彩色应用建

议，比如生动的教材、个性化的证书等

等，深受老师欢迎。在与幼儿园用户的

前期接触中，通过邀请用户参观样机并

亲自体验，展示各种彩色应用方案，最

终促使用户接受并认可了柯尼卡美能达

为幼儿园 " 量身定制 " 的彩色输出解决方

案。在此成功开发用户的契机下，逐步

扩展到了市内的各家幼儿园用户。考虑

到幼儿园初次使用彩色设备，柯尼卡美

能达推荐了具有打印速度快，功能丰富，

操作简单，性价比高等特点的彩色数码

复合机 bizhub C210。经过一段时间的

试用后，深受老师们的喜爱和好评。

幼儿园园长们在接受回访时几乎一

致提到，柯尼卡美能达不仅产品质量让

人放心，无需担心因设备故障而导致的

工作耽误，而且提供的增值服务也非常

到位，除了前期积极的方案服务，售后

工程师在后期也会定期上门维护设备、

耐心传授老师操作技巧，同时也能够积

极发现客户的新课题，推荐行之有效的

彩色方案。由此，当地幼儿园的教学质

量和环境形象都焕然一新，而且家长们

的满意度也都比以前有了大幅度的提高。

作为专业的彩色复合机产品厂商，

柯尼卡美能达始终站在用户的角度，以

不断提升用户满意度为目标，继续推动

领先技术与用户需求的结合，不断为幼

儿园用户带来更多的价值与利益，助力

中国的幼教工作改进、去实现更高的飞

（2013 年 5 月 23 日，上海讯）今

年年初，全球领先的文档影像产品独立

测试机构买家实验室（BLI）向一系列全

球最卓越的单色打印机和多功能一体机

（MFP）型号授予“年度之选”奖。获

奖产品是 BLI 在过去 6 个月期间评选出

卢明会长亲赴商务部沟通碳粉盒进出口事宜

理光亮相国际印刷技术展览会

工平智能公司推出高速全彩打印机

标签印刷成最广泛应用

旧／已翻新碳粉盒的进出口问题是该行业企业非常关心

的问题，也是商务部极为重视的工作。经事先联系确定，6

月 4 日下午，卢明会长在副秘书长张宏民和珠海市耗材行业

协会秘书长张涛的陪同下，赴商务部产业司（机电产品进出

口办公室）就此事进行了卓有成效的沟通。

卢会长及随行人员汇报了打印耗材行业的生产及进出口

情况，尤其强调了跨国公司利用知识产权（专利）、价格诱饵（低

价出售整机，高价销售粉盒）压制我国产业发展的情况。此外，

卢会长还对商务部多年来对电子信息产业的支持表示了诚挚

的感谢。

商务部产业司刘少军副司长、钱景汾处长、齐晖处长分

别介绍了商务部对碳粉盒进出口方面的有关政策，审批程序

及今后的政策导向。刘司长强调旧／已翻新碳粉盒是限制类

进口产品，原因是环境污染问题，有的国家鼓励再生利用，

但他主张到别国再生。如果走加工贸易，进口材料经过加工

后全部出口，商务部是支持的，不支持内销。由于世界经济

危机的原因，为了国内企业的利益，从 08 年开始商务部审批

了一批内销额度（20%），应该说这是一种权宜之计，以后

会慢慢调整，逐步减少。

卢会长和商务部的同志一致认为，国内的碳粉盒回收体

系应下大的决心建立并完善起来，应该作为一个课题进行研

究，想办法实现“以旧换新”的格局。

标签技术是包装领域目前浸润数字技术最为深入的领域。

可别小看了这一枚枚小小的标签，实则大有学问，质量稳定

是其中考量设备最为重要的性能。如若同样一种产品，各自

身上的标签看起来是不一样的，这将大大影响产品本身在消

费者心中的品质。

如何能够在短版活件盛行的当下实现包装印刷的这种统

一性？惠普公司打印与信息产品集团（PPS）喷墨与图形印

艺解决方案事业部高级副总裁史蒂芬·尼格罗认为，数字技

术能够满足这一要求。目前，最为人们熟知的个性化标签应

用就是药品电子监管码的生产。为了实现政府对药品安全的

监管，每个药品包装上均附有如身份证般独有的条码，这个

条码不但可以作为验明药品真伪之用，同时可以追溯药品生

产及流通过程，确保任意环节出现问题都有据可循。而要实

现这一品一码的可变数据包装印刷过程就唯有运用数字技术

才能确保稳定、合规，同时还可降低成本。

然而数字技术虽好，目前国内很多规模不大的标签生产

包装企业对于购置数字设备仍顾虑重重，虽心生向往，奈何

资金捉襟见肘。售价过高是一个原因，另一个原因则是企业

已经习惯于旧有的传统生产模式，这令其难以放下原先已有

的传统设备。对此，史蒂芬·尼格罗认为，要想标签设备在

中国的标识与商标市场领先，必须建立更为灵活有效的包装

业应用生态系统。所谓生态系统是指不仅仅有数字设备，还

得以数字设备为核心建立完善的印后处理装置以及工作流程

合作伙伴等。生态系统的建设不论是在目前还是未来都是业

内制造商研发的核心内容，唯有这样才能称得上是真正完备

的解决方案，才能消除用户的顾虑。

供商理光携旗下全新印刷技术产品及解决方案重磅出击这一

亚洲第一的综合性国际印刷品牌展会，并且发布旗下全新彩

色宽幅工程机 RICOH MP CW2200SP，以及彩色生产型数码

印刷系统 RICOH Pro C5100S 系列，成为此次展会的一大焦

点。

据理光(中国)投资有限公司PP销售部总经理介绍，目前，

理光 ( 中国 ) 的 PP 产品分单张纸和大幅面两大类。单张纸已

经扩充至 3 大系列 6 款型号，为商务按需印刷业务的发展注

入源源动力，逐渐受到用户的关注和欢迎。

我国数字打印设备主要生产厂商浙江工平智能设备公司

理黑白文件也可打印彩色效果图。

建筑行业需求量极大的工程图是图文印刷行业的重要业

务来源，长期以来普遍应用低成本的氨水充作显影剂，持续

取代传统晒图，不仅大大降低了能耗，极大地改善了生产环境，

而且减少了劳动力的使用，具有良好的性价比。

Global Paper Media Printing Markets Continue to Decline

全球纸媒广告印刷市场继续下降

网上低价卖货 , 引来佳能打假世界首例 3D 打印技术用于临床案例成功Counterfeit Consumables Sold online at Low Prices

3D Printing Technology Successfully Used in Clinical Case for the First Time in the World 经过半个月的摸底调查，佳能公司委托的打假代理人将

目光锁定在了幸福中路附近一个租赁厂房中，并向烟台工商

部门举报。接到举报后，昨日，芝罘工商联合公安部门查获

了这一造假售假窝点。该窝点长期伪造佳能碳粉，在网上兜售。

网上卖的价格是正品的 1/10

向先生介绍，这个造假窝点，主要采用网络销售的方式。

前期，根据消费者的投诉信息，他们发现一家名为“金长城

办公耗材”的淘宝网店存在很大的造假售假嫌疑。因为佳能

公司从未往这家网店发过货，在烟台这边也未委托过任何商

家制造生产碳粉条。

“为了判定产品的真伪，我们还从该网店买了一些佳能

品牌的碳粉条。”向先生介绍，这个网店售卖的价格非常便宜，

比如，正品卖 300 多元，该网店就卖 30 多元，是正品价格的

1/10。“但经鉴定，这些产品都是假的。”

连防伪标志也是假冒的

“这些假冒产品，普通消费者很难判定。”向先生介绍，

造假窝点不仅复制使用佳能碳粉条的外包装，还贴了防伪标

志。“不过，这些防伪标志也是假冒的，用公司的专业工具

都能检测出真假。”

执法人员介绍，这个窝点主要制造、加工办公耗材产品，

除了仿造佳能碳粉条，还制造东芝、惠普、贝斯尼、天威等

多个品牌的办公耗材，至于这些品牌的真假，还需要进一步

鉴定。

据了解，现场共查获 45 个包装好的佳能碳粉条成品、

670 个防伪标志、400 多个有“佳能”品牌的包装盒以及 253

个标有“佳能”字样的碳粉后盖。

据《美国印刷人》杂志报道，尼尔森的全球广告市场日

前发布的季报显示，整个 2012 年，全球广告支出总额增至

5570 亿美元。从广告媒体上来看，大多数广告代理商都将

资金从报纸和杂志等媒体转移到了电视广告上。其中，电视

广告在全球广告总支出中占据了 62.8% 的份额，其次是报纸

（19.5%）和杂志广告（5.2%）。

统计显示，杂志（-1.6%）和报纸（-0.2%）的广告支

出均在 2012 年出现了不同程度地下降。其中，杂志广告在欧

洲、北美和中东及美洲地区分别下降了 7.7%、2.5% 和 2.4%；

报纸的情况要稍好一些，除在欧洲下降了 7.5% 以外，在其他

地区都取得了增长。
