Big Bang DisruptionBy Larry Downes and Paul Nunes

Review from Amazon:

It used to take years or even decades for disruptive innovations

to dethrone dominant products and services. But now any

business can be devastated virtually overnight by something

betterand cheaper. How can executives protect themselves and

harness the power of Big Bang Disruption?

Just a few years ago, drivers happily spent more than $200 for a

GPS unit. But as smartphones exploded in popularity, free navigation apps exceeded the

performance of stand-alone devices. Eighteen months after the debut of the navigation

apps, leading GPS manufacturers had lost 85 percent of their market value.

Larry Downes and Paul Nunes analyze the origins, economics, and anatomy of Big Bang

Disruption. They identify four key stages of the new innovation life cycle, helping you spot

potential disruptors in time.

The January day in Frankfurt was cold and gray. It was

my fourth year attending Remaxexpo@Paperworld (previously

called Remax), and the mood this time was not very cheery. I

pondered possible explanations as to why this might be—was

it the gloomy weather? Exhaustion from the long, transatlantic

flight? Boredom from many years of a similar routine? I

wondered if it was just me or if others felt the same way at this

year's reman show in Germany.

On my second day of walking about the show f loor, I

encountered many familiar faces and inquired as to how they

felt about this year's exhibition and, as usual, about business

in general these days. The responses overall seemed to be

pessimistic, with only an occasional reserved optimistic remark.

After three full days of walking around and interviewing as many

as possible about their impression of the state of our industry,

I felt that I had seen and heard enough of the obstacles and

challenges facing us.

I heard the pains experienced by many exhibitors that the end

result of each exhibition was price lowering, leading to a new

round of fierce pricing competition. Many also felt that the

industry is flooded with poor quality compatibles that also lead

to deteriorated profit margins, leaving many companies to

struggle to survive, let alone grow.

These companies are caught in a vicious cycle of lowering

the price to compete with poor quality components, in turn

ending up with more RMAs that prevent them from moving up

to another level of growth. Many complained that, overall, the

industry is not geared up for a healthy cycle of development. In

Remaxexpo@Paperworld in Frankfurt...is it all that doom and gloom?By Ms. Sunny Sun, Publisher

addition to this, clone cartridges have deteriorated the market

and added pressure toward drastic pricing drops that have

been hurting the remanufacturing business on large scale.

However, there were also some companies that spotted and

embraced a world of growing opportunities. Their booths were

filled with clients and customers busily engaged in business

meetings and negotiations.

Exhibitors such as these say that ours is not a dying industry

but only an arena filled with non-performing companies.

Opportunities, they assert, are somehow created, just as roads

are paved and walked by people. In other words, companies

have to create and cultivate their own pathways for success.

On the other hand, the rules of the game have changed as

compared to ten years ago. The industry has become more

mature with relatively stable technology and established sales

channels for some players. In addition, more consolidation of

businesses, like Turbon acquiring ILG and China Hongbei Ding

Long acquiring Mitu and Kolion Tech, will produce a stronger

market presence that will further push the smaller players to

struggle for survival or exit the market entirely.

The market players have changed and will probably continue

to change in the years to come. The reman industry, like any

industry having already gone through its stages of initial fast-

track growth, is still moving forward with steady market share

penetration by consolidation and has stepped into a more

mature industry force that will continuously reposition itself to

compete with the OEMs.

The greater knowledge of the IP issues being raised in this region

of Europe and the more awareness of the general rule of the

game one has, the better off one would be in the market. It is

important to understand that to be able to continuously grow

one’s business, one needs to comply with and respect the

OEMs’ patents. This is an issue that must be addressed and that

must be respected.

I heard by some that during exhibition hours, OEM staff walked

around to every single Chinese booth to see if there were any

violations. Apparently, a few companies, mostly Chinese, were

cited by Customs with a fee of 500-1500 euros, depending on

the violation.

Meanwhile, two HP personnel, Elizabeth Porter and Mathew

Barkley, gave presentations on chip compliance by aftermarket

products to ensure there is no misconception or confusion

among end-users. I personally think it is a good and positive

gesture by the OEMs to engage the aftermarket with

constructive dialogue.

On the other hand, the two separate industry forces have

come a little closer in terms of market share in certain regions,

meaning there is enough aftermarket product presence in the

market that OEMs cannot afford to ignore. While there are still

many substandard products available, the standard and quality

of the remanufactured or alternative product choices have as

a whole substantially improved.

The European market is still strong for many remanufacturing

businesses, especially Chinese factories, because Europe

has a taken strong stand toward the use of recycled or OEM-

alternative products. Culturally and traditionally, Europeans are

more accepting of recycled products as there is awareness and

education toward protecting the environment.

My personal take is that, although the internet and ever-

increasing social media interaction have made global distances

smaller and rendered us more connected, the real face-to-

face interaction provided by tradeshows is irreplaceable. The

closeness brought by a face-to-face meeting is hard to convey

via social media messaging, and that is the reason we traveled

such a long journey to meet and greet our colleagues.

In conclusion, like any industry going through ups and downs,

we are on a growing curve even though it may be at a much

slower pace in a challenging environment. Let’s remain hopeful

and value what we have accomplished thus far—a significantly

growing market share and market force in the printing world

that the OMEs cannot take lightly.

NORWALK, Conn., Jan 23, 2014--Xerox XRX -5.69% received

1,168 U.S. patents in 2013, making it one of the world’s top

innovative companies and adding to its portfolio of over 12,100

active U.S. patents that help businesses and organizations

simplify work.

IFI Claims, a research company that compiles an annual

patent list, ranked Xerox as 32nd in its 2013 report based on 1,013

patents, which does not include over 150 patents from its wholly

owned subsidiaries, such as the Palo Alto Research Center (

PARC ), A Xerox Company. Combining subsidiaries andthe 800

U.S. patents awarded in 2013 through Xerox’s joint venture in

Japan, Fuji Xerox Co. Ltd. , Xerox would be ranked 10th with 1,968

patents on the IFI Patent Intelligence list worldwide.

Xerox is celebrating its 75th year of innovation which began

when Chester Carlson, the company’s founding inventor, made

the first xerographic copy in a make-shift lab in Astoria, Queens,

N.Y. and was granted U.S. Patent 2,297,691, illustrating the basic

process of xerography.

“Chester Carlson’s legacy lives on through Xerox scientists

and engineers around the globe who continue to help our

clients create agile and personalized business processes,”

said Sophie Vandebroek, Xerox chief technology officer and

president of the Xerox Innovation Group. “By collaborating closely with our clients, we create differentiated document technology and simplify the way work gets done in industries such as healthcare, finance, education, customer care and transportation .”

Xerox scientists and researchers apply their expertise in areas

such as imaging, data analytics, automation, personalization

and sustainability to innovate simpler ways of doing business -

well beyond anything Carlson could have envisioned.

For example:

Xerox and its subsidiaries have received more than 62,000

patents worldwide since the company’s first patent was issued

in 1933. The company is home to some of the world’s most

prolific inventors. In 2013 almost 90 scientists and engineers

reached patent milestones ranging from 75 to over 300 patents.

Xerox has been awarded the National Medal of Technology ,

the highest honor awarded by the President of the United States

and a number of innovation awards including being a three

time winner on Thomson Reuters' listing of the World's 100 Most

Innovative Companies and being named to MIT Technology

Review’s 50 Most Disruptive Companies in 2013.

In 2013 almost 90 scientists and engineers reached patent milestones ranging from 75 to over 300 patents.

Brother coy over 3D printing plans

Brother, printer and scanner specialist is not saying

anything regarding its plan to enter the 3D printer

sector whereas both Dell and HP announced their

intentions to enter the market.

Phil Jones, MD of Brother (UK), said that according

to the analysts 3D printing market is filled with huge

opportunities, be that consumerised or in a more

commercial environment. He added that just like every

print vendor, Brother, too is evaluating and analyzing

their future in 3D printing but it is not decided yet

whether Brother would enter the market or not.

Jones furthermore shared his thoughts on how he

conceives the printer market will evolve in 2014. He

noted that print is changing and they are experiencing

increased demand for portable printing and car-

based printing. He emphasized that software has

stirred a lot of attention and interest, lately. They might

install software on people’s networks, enabling them to

work more efficiently and reducing wastage of paper.

Major patent expiration could spark a second 3D printing revolution

The news of the expiration of a central patent controlling

production of a particular type of 3D printer caused a

significant effect on the 3D printing community. The patent

deals with SLS, i.e. selective laser sintering which is more

advantageous than other techniques. Currently a SLS printer

can cost up to $250,000 but the expiration of the patent would

hopefully reduce the price.

This claim is supported by evidence. There was an

instantaneous, dramatic open source movement when the

patent for fused deposition modeling (FDM) expired. The once

corporate eccentricity transformed into a popular DIY project

and companies started supplying to the new 3D printing

market. The success of these unreliable printers is mainly the

reason for the availability of the low-cost, mid-range printers

today.

SLS machines can be more advanced and beneficial

than current economy-level 3D printers as they do not use

traditional extruder to control the modeling material. This

process is both slow and inaccurate and it creates a more or

less hard limit on resolution and restricts the printing materials to

a great extent. Previously FDM mostly used plastics but it is now

being replaced with carbon fiber.

Plastic, metal, ceramic or even glass can be printed using

the technology of SLS machines. Only if the cost of this was

reduced then there would have been an outbreak in the

usage of 3D printing.

According to some people the patent at issue here is old

and it includes only the primary principle of additive printing.

Companies have spent a very long period of time improving

the technology and those proprietary devices are all still kept

safe from start-ups and hobbyists. The expiration of the patent

would enable new companies or individuals to bring SLS

printers to market.

Whether entering the SLS market would be financially viable

is an issue to consider because it includes high-powered

precision lasers which makes it uncertain if the technology

can be made cheaply. The companies may also find no

appropriate market. Moreover further improvement on SLS

technology may conflict with existing patents.

However these problems were still there when FDM printers

were launched but now they are quite cheap and can even

be bought at $300. Still if the tech demotes in case of resolution

or range of materials, the basic

principle could yet make its

way to the open source scene.

Though the open source

printing community slowed

down in the past few months,

the new legal way of printing

now avai lable could help

them to speed up again.

Mobile Printing Apps: Getting Better

When everyone s tar ted us ing a

smartphone, printer making firms needed

to find a way of printing documents from

these devices. Most of them preferred

the idea of making applications which

can send documents to printers from the

smartphones and for which they hired

app firms. This was not a problem as the

majority of the the new printers have

built-in wireless connections.

Nearly all smartphones and tablets

lack innate printing ability built in for

which the app has to conduct everything

starting from grabbing attachments

to responding to “share” request from

another app. Printing from these apps

differs from that of a Windows or Mac

computer. The printing apps pass a

document over to the printer.

Sometimes, at a later date, documents

can be pr inted f rom phones even

though it wasn’t possible the first time so

it is highly recommended to check now

and then if the wireless printer supports

printing through mobile apps as printer

manufacturers sometimes combine older

printers to their apps’ function. Mostly it

is suggested to check whether Apple’s

AirPlay system or Google’s Cloud Print

system supports the printer.

A list of the top printer maker’s printing

apps is given below. Almost all of them

can print photos stored on the phone.

The l ist below contains some of the

services they provide.

Canon U.S.A. Announces Mobile Scanning App for Home and Office Users

Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, recently announced its Canon

Mobile Scanning for Business App for iPhone and iPad, adding mobile scan workflow capability

to Canon's already extensive support for mobile office users and consumers. Canon Mobile

Scanning for Business enables users in homes and offices to scan jobs from a supported

imageCLASS multifunction printer (MFP) directly into their compatible iPhone or iPad device to

support a user's portability, distribution or backup needs.

The Canon Mobile Scanning for Business app is compatible with select Canon imageCLASS

desktop laser MFPs, including the MF4770n/MF4880dw/MF4890dw, MF5950dw/MF5960dn,

MF6160dw/MF6180dw, MF8280Cw/MF8580Cdw and D1320/D1350/D1370 MFPs. Users can initiate

scans in JPEG (individual files for each page) or PDF form (one multi-page file) directly through

the app's user-friendly interface.

"Today's mobile workers need real-time fingertip access to their documents, including

those originating in hard copy form," said Sam Yoshida, vice president and general manager,

Marketing, Business Imaging Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A. "The new Canon Mobile Scanning for

Business App gives mobile users more flexibility and control to help manage their documents on

the go."

The Canon Mobile Scanning for Business App features the following tools:

Intuitive MFP CommunicationThe app can search for and identify compatible Canon MFPs within a wireless broadcast

range - and automatically save these devices for future use. If the Canon MFP cannot be found

within a wireless broadcast range, users can manually enter the IP address of the compatible

Canon device to list it as one of their available scan devices. Once discovered, users can easily

toggle between compatible devices to initiate scan jobs from multiple MFPs.

Wide Range of Compatibility Aims to Provide a Satisfying End-User ExperienceThe app supports devices running iOS 5.1 or later and is available for the iPhone 5S, iPhone

5C, iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, the New iPad (4th Generation), iPad (3rd Generation), iPad 2,

the original iPad and the iPad Mini.

Opportunity to Choose Scan Settings Helps Optimize WorkflowA variety of built-in scanning options empower users to enhance control and performance.

Users can tailor scan resolution, paper size, file format, color mode and two-sided (duplex)

scanning directly from the app. Additionally, users can instruct the app to initiate scan jobs from

either the platen glass or via the auto document feeder.

Scanned File Distribution CapabilityOnce an original is scanned from a compatible MFP, users can opt to save the file to built-in

local application storage (Camera Roll, My Documents) for later retrieval, attach it to a pre-set

email address for distribution to colleagues, open it into another iOS application via the OpenIn

feature for further management or open it into the Canon Mobile Printing app to quickly print

the file through a compatible MFP (users who have not previously downloaded the free Canon

Mobile Printing application for iOS will be automatically directed to the App StoreSM.

Extensive Device MenuUsers can access a built-in device menu for each discovered MFP that provides device

status, model name, IP address and MAC Address information, as well as direct links to support

information and also the device's remote user interface (web portal), which gives the user even

greater accessibility and capability to manage the equipment.

App support is expected to expand to include select imageRUNNER and imageRUNNER

ADVANCE devices in the near future. For product specifications and the latest device

information, please visit the Canon U.S.A. website athttp://usa.canon.com/cusa/office/

standard_display/Mobile_Apps2.

Buyers Laboratory (BLI) has been the

leading source for unbiased and reliable

intelligence for the global digital imaging

industry for over 50 years. For the year

2014 it has chosen the top vendors in

hardware and software.

Xerox Corporation Ltd has been

chosen as the 2014 document imaging

solutions line of the year thanks to its

range of solutions including document

management, document capture and

workflow, cost accounting and recovery,

print management and mobile printing.

Moreover it managed to build a strong

portfolio including the DocuShare line

of document management products,

its Mobile Print Cloud and Mobile Print

Solution, ConnectKey for SharePoint, and

Scan to PC Desktop Professional 12. Ten

of its solutions were rated as five star by

Buyer’s Lab.

Samsung Electronics America has

been chosen as the2014 outstanding

monochrome printer and multifunction

printer (MFP) line of the year, second time

in a row, due to its cost-effectiveness,

eco-friendly features, and the straight

forward user experience.

The same award was also won by

Hewlett-Packard Co. for the category of

colour printer. This is the fourth time in a

row that HP has won this award and fifth

time since 2008, whose credit goes to HP

Access Control and HP Web Jetadmin.

These enables less amount of colour

ink to be used thus proving to be cost

effective. Moreover, HP is appreciated

for its reliability, with the MFPs able to

record 85,200 scans altogether avoiding

paper jams. Mostly one of the devices

malfunctioned or required any services.

Buyers Lab’s outstanding achievement

award for innovations in mobile printing

has also been won by HP due to its use

of near field communication (NFC) and

WiFi Direct technology to simplify mobile

printing from NFC-enabled smart phones

and tablets.

Marlene Orr, a senior analyst for

Buyers Lab, commented that mobile

printing in enterprise environment is

quite complicated for the user. Even

the first step of connecting to the printer

also proves to be difficult but HP has

made things simpler by using NFC. He

also noted that security is the primary

concern for the IT department and HP

did take into consideration by using a

direct wireless connection, separate from

the wired connection, to encrypt and

securely send print data to the device.

119 Issue March 2014

In December 2013, Hewlett Packard

released the LaserJet Pro M125 series of

printers. The M125 series of laser printers

are based on a 21 ppm, 600 x 600dpi

(1200dpi with Fast Res) Canon engine.

As with almost all HP cartridges now,

these new cartridges use a chip that

controls the toner low functions and

must be replaced each cycle. The

CE283A is rated for 1,500 pages.

The printer itself has a very small

foot print. It’s a nice small off ice/

home machine. The memory is fixed

and not expandable at 128Mb. The

recommended monthly volume is from

250-2000 pages/month. These machines

also have a new feature called “Smart

install” the printer driver is built into the

printer so no drivers need to be installed.

Just plug in the USB or Ethernet cable it

installs itself with fairly minor

The printer when new comes with

a starter cartridge that is rated for

700 pages at 5% coverage, so your

customers will be coming to you fairly

quickly! The starter cartr idges and

replacement CE283A (1500 page)

cartridges are physically the same so

you can make a standard cartridge

from the starter.

So far there are four printers based on

this engine. The MFP M125, MFP M127,

M201 and the MFP M225

The new 83A cartridge is a modified

version of the older P1102 cartridges.

In fact many parts for those cartridges

work in these also. Conversion kits are

being developed now and should be

available as you read this.

Cartridge troubleshooting will be

covered at the end of this article.

The theory for these cartridges is a

little different from past versions so we

have covered it here. You don’t have

to know the theory to remanufacture

cartridges, but it sure helps if you have

a problem. Troubleshooting time can

be dramatically reduced. For example:

knowing that the PCR both charges

and erases the drum tells you that if

there is a backgrounding problem, a

ghosting problem or light print. They

could al l be caused by the PCR.

(Erasing poorly = backgrounding and/or

ghosting; Poor charging light print and/

or backgrounding)

Cartridge Theory:Figure A gives a nice block diagram of

the printing process

The image formation process consists

of a series of steps.

In the first step, the Primary Charge

roller (PCR) places a uniform negative

DC Bias voltage on the OPC drum

surface. The amount of the negative DC

Bias placed on the drum is controlled by

the printer’s intensity setting. This process

is part of the latent Image formation

block. See Figure B

In the second step, the laser beam

is fired onto a rotating mirror (called

the scanner). As the mirror rotates, the

beam reflects into a set of focusing

lens. The beam then strikes the OPC’s

surface, which neutralizes the negative

charge on the drum and leaves a latent

electrostatic image on the drum. Note

that the laser unit actually fires 2 beams,

this allows for faster printing. See Figures

C & D

The third step (developing block)

Remanufacturing the HP LaserJet Pro MFP M125 Series toner cartridge CF283ABy Mike Josiah, Technical Director of UniNet Imaging

is where the toner image is developed

on the drum by the developing section,

(or supply chamber), which contains

the toner particles. The toner is held

to the magnetic roller sleeve by the

stationary magnet inside the sleeve,

and a DC bias voltage supplied by the

high voltage power supply. This DC bias

voltage is controlled by the printer’s

density setting, and causes either more

or less toner to be attracted to the

drum. This in turn will either increase or

decrease the print density. Both the

Primary Charge roller and magnetic

roller DC Bias voltages are controlled by

the printer’s density setting. The amount

of toner on the magnetic roller sleeve

is also controlled by the rubber Doctor

blade, which uses pressure to keep the

amount of toner on the magnetic roller

sleeve constant. This blade also causes

a static charge to build up on the toner,

which helps keep the coating of toner

even, and allows easy transfer to the

OPC drum.

At the same time an AC signal is also

placed on the magnetic roller sleeve.

This signal decreases the attraction of

the toner to the Magnetic Roller sleeve,

and increases the repelling action of

toner against the areas of the drum that

was not exposed to the laser beam.

This AC potential improves the density,

and contrast of the toner on the printed

page. See Figure E

As the laser exposed areas of the

OPC drum approach the magnetic

roller, the toner particles are attracted

to the drums sur face due to the

opposite voltage potentials of the toner,

and laser exposed surface of the OPC

drum.

In the fourth step (transfer block) the

toner image is then transferred to the

paper as it passes below the drum by

the transfer charge roller, which places

a positive charge on the back of the

paper. This positive charge causes

the negatively charged toner on the

drum’s surface to be attracted to the

page. The small diameter of the drum,

combined with the stiffness of the paper

causes the paper to peel away from

the drum. See Figure F

In the fifth step (also part of the

transfer block) the paper separates from

the drum. The static charge eliminator

weakens the attractive forces between

the negatively charged drum surface,

and the positively charged paper. This

prevents toner dropouts onto the paper

at low temperatures and humidity and

also prevents paper from wrapping

around the drum.

In the Sixth step the image is then

fused on to the paper by the fuser

assembly, which is comprised of the

upper fixing fi lm assembly and the

lower fuser roller. The paper passes

between a heated upper fixing film

assembly and a soft lower rubber roller.

The upper heated element then melts

the toner into the paper. The fixing film

assembly consists of a Teflon sleeve

with a ceramic heating element inside.

These fusers are a bit different in that

they have a Brush which has a DC Bias

charge on it to help keep the film clean.

See Figure G

In the Seventh step the OPC drum is

cleaned. On average, approximately

95% of the toner is transferred to the

paper during the print cycle. As the

drum rotates dur ing pr int ing, the

remaining 5% of the toner that is on the

OPC drum is cleaned off the drum by

the wiper blade. It is then guided into

the waste chamber by the recovery

b l a d e , a n d s t o r e d i n t h e w a s t e

chamber. See Figure H

Step 8 is where the residual charge is

eliminated. The Primary Charge Roller

places an AC voltage across the drum

sur face which erases any residual

charges on the drum. This drum charge

elimination is only turned on during the

last rotation period of the drum.

differences between the CE278A, the

CE285A and the new CF283A cartridges.

一、兼容耗材成长历程

1. 商机 :原装厂商垄断行为

80 年代,在中国市场只有原装厂商

在办公设备领域,打印机厂商以捆绑方

式,确保自己稳固的利润。一些民族企

业家,站在消费者角度,挖掘了性价比

优势的兼容耗材,像天威、北京莱盛,

开始规划企业,开拓国内外市场,把公

司逐渐做大做强了。这要缘于原装的垄

断行为提供了兼容厂家的商机。

2. 技术:墨粉到成品(成像卡盒)

90 年代,耗材业中一种低成本高利

润的赚钱模式是灌粉。经销商选择品牌

墨粉给用户灌粉,费用 200 元上下,(原

装厂商的成像卡盒一支 500 元左右,有

些甚至还贵)。灌粉成本在 30 元到 50 元。

但也出现问题,如漏粉、底灰、打印空

白页等等。

之后,一些国产耗材厂商研发品牌

墨粉,以及探索墨粉与成像卡盒和打印

机的兼容性。墨粉的市场价格开始有所

下降,市场竞争开始加剧。在竞争激烈

的情况下,墨粉和成像卡盒应用技术开

始成熟,兼容耗材厂商转型做成品成像

卡盒。在销售过程中,开始注册自己的

品牌商标。如天威品牌、莱盛品牌等等。

从卡盒灌粉到兼容的成像卡盒问世,

是兼容厂商不断提高技术的过程。在这

个过程,成就了一批优秀的公司。

在兼容耗材市场中,很多小作坊式

工厂也加入到了队伍中来,他们价格非

常低廉,应用效果也不是太好,现实市

场鱼目混珠,不可否认的是兼容耗材市

场已经做大。

3. 新品:

20 世纪初,兼容耗材厂家经历了专

利案件的风波,深深体会没有自己的技

术,最终难于做强耗材产业。各大公司

开始关注专利技术,实施在自己的产品

中。

2011 年天威开发捷跃(Jumpr+)

成像卡盒新品。捷跃是一个全新的兼容

墨粉盒系列。该产品的专利创新技术,

是一个转换系统,该转换系统能够使接

触式显影墨粉盒应用在跳动式显影打印

机上。页产量比 OEM 增加 133%,捷跃

在欧洲、美国和中国申请了 20 多项相

关专利,其中的一些已经被授权,捷跃

据国家耗材检测中心统计:2010 年中国的耗材市场达 527 亿元人民币,兼容耗材约 201

亿元人民币,占整体市场份额的 35.4%。2012 年中国采用静电成像技术的打印机、复

印机、传真机的社会保有量约 3000 万台左右,每年产生的废弃成像卡盒估计 7000

万个,约 8 ~ 10 万吨,每年投入市场的卡盒数量是新投入市场整机的 10 倍。

2013 年中国墨盒生产能力约 5 亿套 , 产值约 90 亿元人民币 , 墨水年产能力达

3 万吨 , 产值 7 亿元人民币。由此可以看出兼容耗材在整个耗材市场中的

地位,而且兼容耗材的市场占有率还在不断增长。但随着兼容耗材市

场用户的不断成熟,兼容耗材也在面临着一些瓶颈问题,转型,升

级,发展是急怠解决当务之急。

司在彩色激光成像卡盒产品上的全球知

名度和销售规模。

二、转型、升级、发展是出路

2013 年对于兼容耗材厂商来说,是

困难的一年,产能增加了,利润却下滑

了。人们开始思考:是继续?还是转型?

摆在兼容耗材厂商的抉择。

天威董事长贺良梅在谈到对 2013 年

行业的展望时表示:过去一年充满了疑

惑和挑战,而这种状况将可能持续到今

年。“如果总体环境持续朝这个方向发展,

那么毫无意外很多厂商会被挤兑出局,

或者被别的厂商收购。没错,改变是唯

一的机遇,但是在这个竞争极为激烈的

市场,没有人能得到生存的保证。”

一些大公司行业的领路人,他们是

这样做的。

1. 寻求客户的需求

兼容耗材的价格战是没有未来的,

最终是毁掉自己。珠海赛纳打印科技有

限公司率先走上转型。如格之格在进行

市场充分调研后,认为:公司立足于市

场是把客户的利益放在第一。消费者最

关注的是什么?就在产品上做足文章。

如健康品质的保障、综合打印成本的降

低、高品质的打印体验及服务,是客户

的诉求。格之格提出 4G 标准商用专业耗

材。格之格的转型,成就了格之格现在

的市场,2013 年在不景气的耗材销售中,

他们利益增长 30%。格之格 4G 标准商

用专业版硒鼓,分别从“健康、优质、

环保、方便”四个方面保障消费者的利益。

2. 电子商务

新形势下,要线下线上同时做。电

子商务是贸易的发展趋势。如天威旗下

的好彩快线,2012 年销售量达到 3000

万元,短短 3 年时间增长了 10 倍。北

京莱盛公司在电子商务双“十一”和双

“ 十 二” 一 天 中 销 售 额 突 破 300 万 和

200 万元。小微企业珠海灰太狼公司起

步于网络,成功于网络,在 2012 年增长

15% 销售额 500 万元人民币 , 2013 年全

行业下滑态势 , 他的销售额突破 1000 万

元人民币 , 增长发展很快。如山东富美硒

鼓在国内首创“硒鼓终身循环”模式,

同时还创办了全球唯一的合格旧硒鼓在

线交易平台,这种充满创新的模式一举

解决了旧硒鼓回收难题,又赢得了环保

赞誉,可谓一举两得。电子商务使公司

加快了步伐。

3. 扩展行业新领域

天威的大幅面墨水不断为摄影、广

告行业提供商机。天威率先迈开了转型

的步伐,董事长贺良梅说:“我们专著

于打印耗材市场 30 年,现在到了必须转

型的时候。人们对文字打印的需求减少,

但对纺织品、陶瓷制品、塑料件等日用

品的需求一如既往,这正是喷墨打印市

场未来增长的机遇所在。”

600 多款产品,不仅能满足用户对

文字打印和图案喷绘的传统需求,更能

应用在纺织印花、建材装饰、商业艺术、

医疗健康、日常生活等方方面面,打破

了用户对墨水的局限认识。而由于喷墨

打印工艺的先进性,产品打印过程使用

的废水、废墨要比传统印刷要少、更环保,

也更符合未来消费的个性化定制趋势,

数码喷墨产品不久将来或走进人们的日

常生活,给传统印刷业带来革命性改变。

独立艺术创作随处打印在日常生活

用品上,如棉 T 恤、印花长裙、墙纸、

陶瓷制品、布娃娃、手机壳、相册……

随性地表达自我个性。打印个性手机壳、

证件卡等的平板打印机在新市场中促成

不少订单。

做差异化的产品。小众产品也一样

有很好的利润。如山沃蒙斯打印耗材有

限公司万红亮带领他的团队专注做 OKI

小众产品,走出一条独辟溪径的发展之

路。

4. 开拓新目标市场

利用国家的政策和平台,开拓新市

场。2013 年国家在新疆召开《第三届亚

欧博览会》,这是国家的战略方针,开

拓西部区域的市场,新疆是中亚财富的

交汇点,和亚欧的贸易走廊,国家要实

现东、西并进的开放战略格局,利用国

家的平台,把中国的产品带去,实现民

族品牌的优势。一些大公司正在准备考

虑利用国家的政策实现自己的新的飞跃。

据专家预测,由于彩色打印机使用

的增长,到 2015 年,全球对硒鼓的需求

量将从 2011 年的 3.75 亿只增长到约每

年 4.45 亿只。这是一个多么诱人的商机

啊!换而言之,需求在增长,消费群体

又稳定不变。2014 年是实现兼容耗材厂

商各呈身手的拼博,也必将在耗材行业

中迎来新一轮的发展。

随着兼容耗材市场用户的不

断成熟,兼容耗材也在面临着一

些瓶颈问题,转型,升级,发展

是急怠解决当务之急。

京瓷续约神州数码欲打造打印市场新格局

京瓷办公信息系统(中国)有限公司(下称“京

瓷”)近日宣布,2014 年将继续与北京神州数

码有限公司(下称“神州数码”)开展深入合作,

大力拓展销售渠道建设,力求达成更高的目标。

有业内专家认为,京瓷与神州数码合作的深入开

展,将带给国内 A4 打印机市场更多利好。

作为一家全球领先的办公文档解决方案提

供商,京瓷一直将中国市场视为其全球业务的重

要组成部分。自 2003 年进驻中国市场的十年来,

京瓷的数码打印设备在办公信息设备市场的占有

率逐年稳步提升。伴随着中国经济的飞速发展,

中小型企业、政府部门以及窗口服务行业对于打

印的需求越来越高,A4 桌面级办公产品凭借其

亲民的低价位和小巧的机身,成为这些行业的优

先选择。

京瓷着眼于 A4 桌面级办公产品的巨大商机,

于 2012 年吹响进军号角。在 2013 年 3 月召开

的新闻发布会上,京瓷一举发布多款 A4 桌面级

激光打印机 / 一体机新品,完善多元化的产品格

局。新产品系列基于京瓷独有的 ECOSYS 理念,

针对国内市场对A4桌面级产品的需求进行设计,

如采用寿命高达 100,000 页的 PSLP 感光鼓,配

备大容量的粉仓等,最大程度上降低了更换频率,

并大幅降低了后期的使用成本。同时,与深知中

国脉搏的神州数码达成合作,通过其遍布全国的

网点优势,拓宽销售渠道,得以全面登陆中国

A4 幅面打印市场。

京瓷拥有强大的技术、研发实力,旗下产品

凭借可靠的长寿命感光鼓、零部件以及领先的行

业技术,多年来获得了中国用户的一致好评。特

别是通过基于 ECOSYS 理念的设计,极大限度

的减少了废弃物的排放,为中国的环境保护做出

了贡献。而作为国内最大的通用信息产品分销商,

神州数码在国内 IT 产品分销领域处于领先地位,

有着很强的渠道分销实力、客户资源优势和业界

影响力。随着 2014 年双方合作事宜的进一步深

化,双方发挥各自的强项和优势,在激烈的市场

竞争中取得成功。

国产墨水的推广还得借助于喷墨设备的推广

国内瓷砖生产企业生产成本压力的不断提升,寻求更多更为物美价廉的原

材料替代品成为了摆在各企业面前的首要问题,而国产墨水由于更多地以立足国

内市场为己任,产品售价要远低于进口墨水,只要国内墨水企业将墨水产品品质

维持在合理的合格水平上,国产墨水成为未来喷墨瓷砖生产的主流似乎成为了不

可逆转的趋势。

去年广州陶瓷展期间,约有 14 家国内外企业宣称拥有墨水产品,这其中包

括自主研发、产品代理的方式。但是时至今日,这些企业中的大部分国内企业已

经逐渐放低了当时的姿态,最主要的原因就在于,他们可能解决了墨水生产的难

题,但在产品的规模化生产上,还不能保证产品的质量稳定。同时,这些墨水企

业面临的难题还可能包括,墨水产品在瓷砖生产线上使用过程中或许面临着各式

各样的难题在短时间内无法得到满意解决,而这些问题解决的关键——技术与资

金是国内企业暂时无法逾越的障碍。

更为严峻的事实是,截止目前为止,国产墨水除了一家企业的产品被运用

在了瓷砖生产线上,其他宣称已经成功研发出墨水成品的企业,其产品均没有被

运用到生产一线。尤其是在今年陶瓷行业如此的行业形势之下,国内墨水企业要

想获得他突破,难度可想而知。

虽然当前摆在国内墨水生产企业面前困难重重,但不可排除的是,年初这

些企业的高调,与给予下游客户充足信心的营销手段不无关系。而对大部分企业

而言,技术上的“硬伤”始终是制约企业墨水成品的最大因素。

从产品运用上来说,国产墨水必须解决好稳定性、发色情况、成本、墨水

与喷头的兼容性、墨水与坯的润湿情况等各方面难题,尤其是产品的偏色问题,

成为很多瓷砖生产企业的最大诟病之一。

据了解,喷墨墨水除了和普通墨水一样在 PH 值、粘度、颗粒度、电导率、

表面张力、等物理性能物理性能上有着严格的要求,而且为了满足瓷砖生产需要,

还需满足一些特殊要求——首先,陶瓷粉料 ( 色剂 ) 在溶剂中能保持良好的化学

和物理稳定性,经过长时间存放,不会发生化学反应和颗粒团聚沉淀 ; 其次,在

瓷砖的打印生产国产中,陶瓷色料颗粒必须在短时间内以最有效的堆积结构排列,

附着牢固,获得较大密度的打印层,以便煅烧后具有较高的烧结密度 ; 再次,喷

墨墨水还应具备打印的色剂在高温烧成后保持稳定和良好的呈色性能和与坯釉的

匹配性能。

目前,以进口墨水外代表的欧美墨水制造商在墨水产品上仍存在这不少的

问题,尤其是喷墨墨水还是存在保质期短和颜色数量不足的情况。由于喷墨墨水

极易沉淀,因此该产品保质期相对较短,尽管喷墨打印设备的喷头内部装有循环

系统,但作为陶瓷色料和液体墨水的混合体,加上色料比重较高,喷墨墨水的循

环系统只能减少墨水沉淀,却无法完全避免,这就使得瓷砖企业进口墨水产品只

能通过空运的运输模式实现,毫无疑问这必将加重企业的生产成本。

正因如此,进口墨水在很长一段时间内价格甚比黄金,也令许多希望以喷

墨产品改变销售现状的瓷砖生产企业望而却步,这也无形中制约了这一具有时代

潮流代表性的行业技术的传播、发展。

而在饱受欧美瓷砖制造强国技术封锁、自身起步晚的双重压力之下,国内

墨水企业要想突破这些难题,尚需要企业资金、人才等方面的巨大投入。

亚洲再生业:3D 打印技术在国际

上发展如何?它是如何改变我们的生活

的?您能与我们介绍下吗?

刘树果:3D 打印技术已存在已久了。

从世界上第一台 3D 打印机诞生至今已有

20 多年。而 3D 打印真正走向人们的视

野,是近 2 年的事情。2013 年微软公布

了 Windows 8 支持 3D 打印的细节,美

国境内的微软商店开始出售 3D 打印机,

无疑大有深意。

美国最大办公用品(史泰博公司)

现在也开始销 3D 打印机。在百思买公司

的网站上就能购买到 3D 打印机,意味着

3D 打印机走向市场的步伐加快。

松下在 2013 年初美国 CES 展上,

发布了一台 56 英寸 4K 分辨率的 OLED

电视,其中部分零部件应用了 3D 打印技

术,显示器和内部元件还是用传统制造

技术,揭示着 3D 打印机挑战制造业形态

的变化。

2013 年,剑桥大学的科学家们研发

出首个 3D 微芯片,一个真正可以三维处

理信息的微芯片,寓意着 3D 打印的纵深

发展。

欧美的现状是:“荷兰建筑师打算

用 3D 打印机打造一栋别墅,2014 年完

工;美国一个公司,计划为国际空间站

提供一台 3D 打印机,给宇航员们‘打印’

食物。”美国总统奥巴马也在关注 3D 打

印发展,多建立几个研究中心,从事 3D

的技术研发工作。

毫无疑问,3D 打印将极大改变我们

的生活。

亚洲再生业:近几年在我国北京、

珠海、新疆、南京等地纷纷出现新的 3D

打印公司。其中也不乏成果的展现。如

南京宝岩公司专门从事 3D 打印机制造公

司有研发中心还有基地。杭州电子科技

大学等高校使用生物医用高分子材料、

无机材料、水凝胶材料或活细胞,打印

出较小比例的人类耳朵软骨组织、肝脏

单元以及牙齿正畸和数字化种牙等。中

国是否已走上与国际接轨的 3D 技术,您

认为中国 3D 的困惑在哪儿?

刘树果:尚普咨询报告:全球从事

3D 打印技术不足 100 家,中国有 40 多

家从事 3D 打印技术的上下游企业、科研

单位。从数量上,中国与其他国家相比

并无差距,但在技术的发展程度上仍有

很大的区别。中国产品停留在打印初级

的阶段,突破瓶颈进入大发展,还有一

段艰难的路程。

有人惊呼:这是第三次工业革命?

有人认为 3D 打印将会引发制造业的复

兴?这是不太对的概念。3D 打印严格说

不是打印,它是塑造技术,它为工业的

制造模具产生较大的创新,大大缩短产

品成型的进程。

所以说,3D 打印颠覆的不是制造业,

是对制造业形态的挑战,是人们的创造

力挑战。3D 打印是社会发展到个性化的

需求,促进了制造业技术性的创新。3D

3D 打印市场在哪儿?

当今 3D 打印很盛行,在去年的珠海国际耗材展会还设立了专区,社

会上 3D 打印联盟、3D 打印体验店、各类 3D 耗材公司,纷纷成立。3D

打印可以把构造复杂的模型、几何结构的折叠座椅活灵活现地展示出来,

这些成品,正在使制造业的形态发生着潜移默化的改变。但 3D 打印对于

市场和客户的需求有多大? 3D 打印的市场在哪儿?能否从小众走向主

流?近日,亚洲再生业的记者与中国办公设备制造行业协会的专家顾问刘

树果共同探讨这一问题,现将交流结果与同行共享。

Where is the 3D Printing Market?

2014 年 3 月 总第 119 期

打印其实是一项适合企业使用的技术。用 3D 打印技术

取代传统的注塑工艺,为厂家提供制造快速成型模具的

服务。

3D 打印发展的瓶颈是材料。目前市场常用的是塑料

耗材,作一些小饰品。利润率较高的是金属耗材类。如

航空航天、汽车高端复杂部件及其轻量化等方面都急需

金属材料,它们有巨大的发展空间,但现在能掌握加工

技术的制造商很少。这些防碍了 3D 打印纵深的发展,

也是一时间难以解决行业发展的关键。

亚洲再生业:3D 打印市场在哪儿?有人认为,3D

其实质就是卖软件,卖方案。您认为呢?

刘树果:3D 打印满足了个性化的需求。从目前的技

术发展来看,3D 打印技术应用最好的还是设计部门,产

品的模型通过 3D 打印技术实现,随着技术的不断进步,

3D 打印还将在实物打印领域有着更广阔的前景。最近市

场上出现的 3D 相馆说明三维成像技术开始步入民众生

活。

中国工程院院士、西安交通大学机械工程学院院长

卢秉恒首创“快速制造国家工程研究中心”,是 3D 打

印领域的学科带头人,被誉为“中国 3D 打印第一人”。

他认为,理论界的预期只是一种展望,尚需时间来检验,

而企业家的应用的确说明了这项技术面临的困境和需要

攻克的难题。

中国是制造业大国,有三四千年历史沉淀,3D 打印

的发展才 30 年,社会科技的进步,3D 打印结合信息技术、

材料科技,应用一定能找到突破口。

总结:

3D 打印技术现已广泛应用于众多领

域。该技术的发展方向将更趋向于日常消费

品制造、功能零件制造及组织与结构一体化制造。

一个无可否认的现实是,目前 3D 打印的产值在全

球制造业中所占份额依旧微不足道。2011 年,全球 3D

打印市场规模为 17.1 亿美元,仅占全球制造业总产出的

0.02%。现在人们炒 3D 的发展,只是因为市场小。

据《沃勒斯报告 2012》显示,截至 2011 年,全球累计销售 4.9

万台工业级 3D 打印机,其中近四分之三由美国制造,以色

列和欧洲各国的份额分别为 9.3% 和 10.2%,中国生产的设

备仅占 3.6%,与日本相当。2012 年,世界 3D 打印行业

的产值约 100 亿元人民币,国内大概是 3 亿多元人民

币;预计 2015 年,3D 打印行业销售额将增加至

37 亿美元;到 2019 年,该行业的收入将达

69 亿美元,其中成品产值预计将占

80%。

中央经济工作会议确定了 2014 年经

济发展“稳中求进”的总基调,整体经

济环境渐趋回暖。一年之计在于春,政府、

企业用户近日纷纷制定 2014 年办公打印

采购计划。

工欲善其事,必先利其器。无论是

政府机关、办事处,还是中小型企业,

要想提升办公效率,拥有一台具备高打

印品质、完美打印体验的打印设备,至

关重要。由于大量的文字材料、财务报

表等文件需要打印,以及企业各种证书、

员工身份证等证件需要复印,普通的 A4

或 A3 激光打印机已难以满足多元化的竞

争需求,而兼具打印、复印、扫描于一

体的 A3 数码复合机,恰恰能够符合所有

的需求。用户不必花费高额资金去采购

单功能的打印、复印、扫描等设备,而

只需购置一台数码复合机即可解决所有

办公需求,既能节省资金投入,又能节

省大量的空间资源,提高办公效率。

入门级 A3 数码复合机一度深受政

府、企业用户青睐。然而目前市场上动辄

上万元的 A3 数码复合机很难满足采购要

求,部分用户望而却步。三星 K2200 的

2014 年 1 月 29 日,佳能集团发布了 2013 年全年财报。

财报显示,2013 年佳能集团全年营业总额同比增长 7.2%,约

合 355.37 亿美元。2013 年佳能集团整个集团实现盈利增长

2.6%。由于预期全球经济在 2014 年将继续缓慢复苏,因此佳

能集团营业额预计将增长 3.2%,盈利将增长 4.1%。

在办公产品领域,彩色复合机 imageRUNNER ADVANCE

C5200/C2200 系列销售持续坚挺。生产型高速、连续纸打印

系统以及宽幅面打印机方面,奥西生产的 Océ Color Stream

3000 系列的销售量稳步增长。激光打印机也实现了创纪录的增

长,因此该业务领域全年总营业额实现了 13.8% 的增长,约合

190.48 亿美元。

在影像系统领域,单反数码相机以及可交换镜头方面,

以 EOS 5D Mark Ⅲ和 EOS 70D 为代表的数码单反相机保持了

健康的增长态势,巩固了佳能数码单反相机在全球绝对第一的

地位。虽然小型数码相机受到市场低迷和智能手机的冲击,销

量有所下降,但是佳能新发布的博秀 PowerShot SX275HS 以

及伊克萨斯 IXUS140/132 等产品具有高倍变焦功能等高附加

价值,使销售台数持续攀升。新兴市场对于喷墨打印机的需求

急速缩减,但由于佳能推出了搭载“云服务”的机型,使销量

成功获得增长,因此影像系统领域营业额增长 3.1%,约合到

137.99 亿美元。

在产业机械领域,半导体曝光设备方面,由于存储器生产

设备投资先抑后扬,存储类曝光设备的销售也略有下滑。大型

平板显示器曝光设备由于大型平板投资的逐步恢复,整体上与

上年度持平。医疗设备方面,数字平板探测器的主力机型的销

售实现增长。综合全年销售情况,该领域营业额同比下降 8.1%,

约合 35.70 亿美元。

2014 年全球宏观经济预计将持续缓慢恢复。美、日经济将

维持坚挺势头,欧洲也将逐步复苏,发达国家经济曙光已依稀

可见,而新兴经济体的经济前景仍需观望。在这一宏观经济背

景下,以彩色数码复合机为核心的数码复合机以及激光打印机

的需求将稳步增长。数码单反相机的需求将与 2013 年水平相当。

喷墨打印机止跌回涨。产业机械领域将有望继续复苏。因此,

佳能预计 2014 年业绩将会继续稳步增长。

深圳爱普生连续四年共获 1100 万元奖励

国产打印耗材的市场前景和发展空间很大的,每年以 8%

以上的速度在增加,这也是整个耗材行业的发展趋势,国产

打印耗材因为价格便宜、找有实力的厂家合作,质量有保证、

售后服务有保障,做起来会更轻松。

有位行业老板说 , 做生意最重要就是把握趋势,看好了

趋势再放开去做 , 好不好做得看个人,客户渠道,货源,管理,

方法,技术,服务,做人等,综合各方面的因素。选择一个

最适合自己的品牌 , 需要在质量和价格找到最适合自己的平衡

点。既然认准了耗材行业 , 就要根据自身的条件,选择一个

最适合的品牌产品很重要的 , 其次就是代理合作政策一定要

有利于自己发展 , 启动前要考察好你要做的品牌的实力及代

理合作产品,厂家理念和发展战略。

每个人都希望能找到一份安全,又能稳定盈利的事业,

而打印机耗材恰好满足这些条件,

1. 它具有周期性短,客户回头率高的特点。

2. 县城和地级市的话,市场正处于初级启蒙阶段。

3. 很少有专业做这个项目和生意。

4. 国外原装打印耗材的企业和单位,现在为了节约成本,

改用成本很低的国产打印耗材。

5. 随着自动化办公的普及,电脑和打印机已经变得非常

普遍,再小的店也会装配;个人用户群也在不断增加。

近日,英国钻石分散体公司(Diamond Dispersions)总

裁 Peter Callahan,就中国的授权经销商予以澄清:

“我们在此声明,以下公司:

DKSH Edward Keller (Shanghai) Ltd

3/F Tomson International Commercial Building

710 Dong Fang Road, Pudong, Shanghai 200122

PRC

不再为钻石分散体公司在中国的授权经销商。”

“我们在 12 月之前已经与此公司解除协议,因此我们不

会为该公司售出的任何产品承担任何法律责任。”

“我们在中国的代理为Dr Rita Mao 和 Towffe Ouyang。

Towffe Ouyang 负责我们在上海以南的客户,联系电话:

0086 756 2285627。Dr Rita Mao负责上海及上海以北的客户,

联系电话:0086 21 51168301。”

打印机墨盒不单贵的离谱,还不环保,即便如此也没有

妨碍销售,毕竟没有人喜欢对着屏幕阅读的体验。我们中国

的科学家发明了一种全新墨水技术可以用水完全替代墨盒里

吉林大学化学教授张小安和他的团队开发出一种用水代

替油墨的技术。张小安深知墨盒对环境的危害,森林消失会

加重能源危机和温室效应,但是全世界办公室员工都喜欢把

电子邮件之类无用信息打印成纸张 ( 据统计办公室产生的文

件中 40% 只用一次,美国人一年要产生 7000 万吨废纸 ),张

小安利用一种遇湿变色的特种纸张,使水变油墨成为可能。

张的团队把这种技术叫做“喷水可重复打印技术”,这

种技术对纸张进行预处理,在纸上预先上好隐形染料,染料

遇水变色,水分蒸发后又可重复打印。

If you have ever watched PeterRussell, the Canadian-Indiancomedian, then you would knowhow tough it is to get the Chineseand Indians to do businesstogether.

The episode implies that Indians always demand a deal,and that the Chinese very rarely give in to their demandsto make a deal. True or false, you be the judge, but themeaning of this comedy describes two tough nationsdealing with a tough economy and are then driven tonegotiate the best possible deals.

China and India are two countries with the world’s largestpopulation. Both are fast growing, emerging economieswith hard working people that have inherited a richculture. There is common ground to collaborate andto take advantage of fast moving trends in our industry.

We are proud to launch 2014 RechargExpo India, in NewDelhi, March 6-8 at NSIC, which aims to develop thisstage for you to play on and capture the opportunities inthe growing regions.
