What We Saw: U.S. Consumer and Office Print Activity, 3Q24
This IDC Market Perspective provides an update on office and consumer printer shipment activity in the third quarter of 2024 for the United States."In 3Q24, printer and MFP shipments performed as expected overall, improving from a weak 2Q24 but still slightly down year over year. Looking ahead, a return to seasonal patterns is expected to bring a solid fourth quarter, while increasing clarity in the economic outlook may support positive year-over-year growth in the first half of 2025." — Geoffrey Wilbur, research manager, Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions at IDC
