The internet is the new killer application driving printing in the home. Sixty-seven percent of Internet users print web pages often (see chart). Digital books are projected to account for 1.9 billion printed pages annually in the United States. There are many new printing applications that have far reaching implications for both the consumer printer and supplies markets including email, digital photos, digital books, theater tickets, coupons, customized news and information, catalogs and brochures. This report shares the results of a survey of 6,000 consumers about six major printing applications and projects how they will develop over the next three years. Some of these applications, if successful, will spur consumers to find more efficient, higher quality printers, papers, and inks. This report was created for desktop printer vendors, supplies companies, distributors, retailers, and financial analysts-anyone that needs to be up-to-date on the future of consumer printing.
