Konica Minolta Named Leader in IDC Inkjet Report

Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. has been recognized as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide High-Speed Inkjet 2025 Vendor Assessment, underscoring its strength in productivity, image quality, and digital innovation. The report highlights the continued evolution of high-speed inkjet technology, noting improvements in printheads, inks, drying systems, and overall economics that are accelerating the shift from offset to digital production. IDC points to Konica Minolta’s expanding portfolio and roadmap, including the 2025 launch of the AccurioJet 30000 and development of the next-generation AccurioJet 60000. “We believe being named a Leader in this IDC MarketScape is a strong validation of our commitment to advancing inkjet innovation to meet evolving client needs,” said Frank Mallozzi, President, IPP, Konica Minolta.

The assessment also reflects broader industry dynamics driving investment in high-speed inkjet, including rising paper and aluminum plate costs, shorter print runs, and labor shortages. IDC research indicates that approximately 40% of print service providers have faced labor challenges in the past year, prompting greater adoption of automated digital systems that require fewer operators. Konica Minolta’s solutions are positioned to address these pressures with high productivity, substrate versatility, and robust automation for commercial, packaging, and specialty print applications. With more than 400 AccurioJet installations worldwide and over a decade of inkjet success, the company continues to align its technology strategy with the accelerating demand for efficient, high-speed digital production.
