Aug 21, 2008 4:26 PM

State Street Consultants (Boston, MA) has completed a new PRIMIR (Reston, VA) study titled “Benchmarking 2006 North American Printers & Consumables,” which provides volumes of statistics about all size printers in a variety of markets and geographic regions.

Principally, the study benchmarked the 2006 consumption of paper, ink, blankets, toner and plates for approximately 57,000 sites in the United States and Canada in the market segments covered by this study at the end of 2006. Statistics are provided by geographic region (country, state/province, U.S. Metropolitan Statistical Area [MSA], and U.S. 3-digit zip) and by market segment. Sites using printing presses, digital production presses, and/or wide format printers were evaluated and grouped into various market segments, including commercial printers, in-plant printers, newspaper printers, catalog printers, book printers, directory printers and digital imaging services.
