Sales of business machines, constituting 64.7% of consoli-
dated net sales, increased 7.5%, to ¥2,691,087 million
(U.S.$22,614 million) in fiscal 2006.
Sales of office imaging products increased 2.8% in fiscal
2006, to ¥1,185,925 million (U.S.$9,966 million). In the business
machine segment, sales of color network digital MFDs, which
are grouped in the office imaging products sub-segment,
recorded significant growth with the launch of such new
models as the mid to high-speed office-use iR C5180 series,
the low-power-consumption iR C3380 series, and the high-
image-quality imagePRESS C1 for commercial printing. Among
monochrome network digital MFDs, while sales increased in the
Asian market, sales of monochrome models declined in other
markets as demand shifted toward color models. Color office
imaging products accounted for 31% and 28% and
monochrome office imaging products accounted for 52% and
56% of office imaging products sales in fiscal 2006 and 2005,
respectively. Sales of facsimiles and information system busi-
ness accounted for 17% and 16% of sales of office imaging
products in both fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Sales of computer peripherals increased 12.3% in fiscal
2006 to ¥1,398,408 million (U.S.$11,751 million). Laser beam
printers enjoyed a year-on-year increase in unit sales, with color
models growing more than 50% and monochrome machines,
particularly low-end models, also recording healthy growth of
over 10%. Sales in value terms also rose significantly. As for
inkjet printers, despite a decline in demand for single-function
models and severe price competition in the market, sales in
value terms increased along with unit sales. Sales performance
was boosted by the introduction of 24 new models—13 single-
function models and 11 multifunction models-including the
high-speed user-friendly PIXMA MP600 and overseas entry-
