- In April 2022, Canon Inc., office multifunction devices (MFDs) used conventional methods for printing and scanning, which required significant maintenance and long warm-up times. Canon introduced innovations like the compact long-life drum cartridge and induction heating technology to reduce maintenance and energy consumption. These advancements significantly improved efficiency and image quality in MFDs.
- In January 2024, HP's launch of the TIJ 108mm bulk printing solution exemplified this trend, offering high-speed, high-resolution printing with extended throw distances and reduced maintenance needs. This advancement not only enhanced productivity and efficiency but also supported sustainability by eliminating traditional labeling processes, demonstrating the potential of digital technologies to transform industry standards and drive cost savings.
