CONFERENCE FOCUS
Does Low Cost Color Laser = The Demise of Inkjet Printing?
With Color Laser printers for $299 and headed to $199, can ink jet growth survive?
Laser printing (Electrophotography or Toner Based Printing Systems) remains the dominant digital printing technology based on the number of pages printed annually. Laser printing is continuing to make technology advancements in product functionality, cost performance, print quality, connectivity, and color printing capabilities. Such improvements are threatening inkjet as we know it today and are enabling the development of new markets and applications. Applications such as color business printing, photo printing, internet printing, multifunction printers, digital presses, digital color copier/printers, industrial printing, and more are providing market opportunities for laser printing technology, even in light of an ever increasingly competitive environment. This conference program, IMI's only 2005 conference devoted entirely to laser printing, is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive assessment of technology, application and market development trends that are determining laser printing's role in the overall printing marketplace. Detailed analysis of issues such as cost of ownership, print quality, supplies developments and industry standards will provide new insights into the future of laser printing. The formal sessions and informal networking sessions provide a unique, interactive environment for leading hardware, consumables, components, software, system integrator and user company representatives to network and develop an improved understanding of current developments and other forces that are shaping laser printing's role in the increasingly competitive digital printing industry.
