Background:
The use of home printers has declined as a growing share of technology users increasingly transform their images, documents and interactions to digital. Furthermore, users have migrated many activities away from home computers. This TUPdate identifies the areas with the highest potential for growth and near-term acquisition of home printers.
Approach:
This research measures the active market penetration rates among global and American adults. Results are based on a survey of 13,561 online adults in the US, Germany, UK, Japan, and China, drawn and weighted to be representative of the online population. From this dataset, MetaFacts screened and profiled 6,609 respondents who are using a home printer or plan to acquire one within the next 12 months. This analysis reports on the market based on user’s current and planned use of a home printer in four quadrants: growth, replacement, holding, and uninvolved. MetaFacts also tapped into its surveys of 109,946 respondents from 2017 through 2024 to detail trends in active home printer and home computer usage. This analysis uses data on home printer brand, home printing activities, current and expected remote work status, employment status, respondent age, and home printer age.
