Future Graphics Presents Positive News for Remanufacturing Industry at ReView 2007
Details
Why Laser-based MFP Proliferation and Non-Traditional OEM Inroads into
the Enterprise Channel Spells Great Future for Remanufacturers
SAN
ANTONIO, TX —At Recharger Magazine’s Review 2007 Summit in February, in
San Antonio,Texas, Future Graphics presented encouraging news for our
industry in a seminar focused on thenew channels and opportunities that
laser-based Multi-Function Printers (MFPs) present.Speaking to 80
representatives of some our industry’s most notable companies and
tradepublications, Luke Goldberg, Senior Vice President, Future
Graphics, delivered a powerfulmessage about the trend in MFPs and their
positive implications for the R & R industry. Entitled“Laser-Based
MFP Proliferation: New Channels and Opportunities for the
RemanufacturingIndustry,” Luke detailed all the key products and their
anticipated demand, as well as trends inmonochrome and color and the
players to watch. Mr. Goldberg also reviewed OEM offerings across the
distribution matrix and analyzed the channels of sales and
distribution.“As I stated in my presentation,” said Mr. Goldberg, “one
very interesting aspect of the MFP proliferation is that HP is
attempting to wrestle market share from Xerox in the Enterprise
channel.This allows traditional copier offerings to be replaced by
laser-based consumables which would obviously be very positive for our
industry.”“The seminars and presenters at ReView 2007 were nothing
short of first rate,” said PhyllisGurgevich, publisher of Recharger.
“From new market opportunities to new technologies, ReView offered a
wealth of information that attendees will be able to take back and put
into practice.”Across all channels, MFP growth was significant in 2006.
According to Lyra, monochrome MFP shipments were up 8.6% and color MPF
shipments were up 38.1%. Since MFPs are laser printerbased, the
remanufacturing industry will have an immediate opportunity for sales
and service. Consumables consumption will also be higher due to the
broad MFP capabilities and increased usage of color.
