CRN Printer Week 2022

Welcome to Printer Week 2022, CRN’s annual look at the state of the printer market in North America. After being gripped by the COVID-19 pandemic, some workers began returning to offices this year full-time while others slowly returned with a hybrid work setup.

Many vendors have dealt with component shortages causing backlogs throughout the pandemic. Home printers were stretched to the limit and the paradigm shifted again as office workers began returning at least on a hybrid basis. This shift created a demand for a diverse set of offerings that could complement the changing work landscape.

This week we are looking at the thoseshifts in the industry dynamics and much more. Check in throughout the week for ongoing analysis of the printer industry along with slideshows featuring the latest offerings from HP Inc., Xerox, Lexmark, Epson, Brother and more.
