Aftermarket Cartridge Shipments for HP and Epson Printers Are Neck and Neck
LYRA RESEARCH
NEWTON, MA
just over 100 million aftermarket ink jet cartridges will ship for use
in HP printing devices worldwide next year, and nearly the same number
of aftermarket ink jet cartridges will ship for use in Epson printers.
Grey Held, director of Lyra’s Hard Copy Supplies Advisory Service,
explains, “If you look at the worldwide installed base of HP ink jet
printers and MFPs, it is almost double the size of Epson’s ink jet
installed base. Likewise, HP ships about twice as many ink jet
cartridges per year as Epson. But when it comes to aftermarket ink jet
cartridges, shipments are surprisingly similar.a contributing factor to
this unlikely near-tie is Epson’s growing installed base of ink jet
printers that use separate ink tanks for cyan, magenta, and yellow.
Also, Epson ink cartridges do not feature integrated print heads, as do
most HP ink cartridges.”
