The combined serial inkjet and page printer, copier and multifunction product (MFP) market expanded by 10% to over 6.8 lakh units in the last quarter of 2010, market analyst firm Gartner said today.
"With the growth in IT sector and overall consumer confidence, there has been a spur in IT spending including the small and midsize business (SMB) and government sectors. Hence most print vendors reported good growth," Amrita Choudhury, research analyst at Gartner, said in a statement.
HP, Canon, Epson and Samsung continued to be the top four vendors accounting for 94% of the total printer market in the fourth quarter of 2010, the statement said.
