Japan Printer Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

Japan Printer Market Size

The Japan printer market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% between 2025 and 2034. The market is being driven by technological advancements and the rising demand for ink tank printers.

Japan Printer Market Outlook

• The commercial sector is expected to constitute a major portion of the market share.

• Multi-functional printers are expected to become increasingly popular over the forecast period.

• The increasing demand for wireless printers is expected to facilitate the market expansion.

Japan Printer Market Growth

The increasing demand for ink tank printers in developed countries such as the USA and Canada is prompting Japanese printer corporations like Epson to make massive investments towards increasing the production capacity for inkjet printheads. This is also fuelled by the demand for distributed printing solutions amid the growing prominence of work-from-home models.

The market is also fuelled by technological improvements in A3 monochrome printers, reducing their development period by about 30%. This can be attributed to the use of LED printing technologies in printer engines, which are much more efficient and lightweight as compared to other types of printers.

Increasing government support for technology development is driving innovations in the market. In 2022, Epson received an award at the National Commendation for Innovation for developing a printing technology that minimises image roughness and enhances the quality and speed of inkjet printing for residential, commercial, and industrial uses.

The increasing dimensions of printheads are minimising the need for refilling frequent ink replacements and enhancing the productivity of offices. The integration of weight sensors is enabling them to detect low ink levels earlier and reduce printer downtime. Such innovations are expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period.
