“The Q42011 did not meet expectations when compared to the previous quarter,” said Amrita Choudhury, Research Analyst, Gartner. “Inkjet and page products registered mixed sales as organizations controlled purchasing of print devices and looked for services rather than products.”
The inkjet printers market experienced a decline of 24.9 percent compared to the Q42010. Apart from weak consumer confidence and cautious consumer spending, penetration into the home segment stagnated as the technology matured. The growing proliferation of electronic media, such as smartphones and tablets, as a means of communication also contributed to the dismal outcome.
