earnings.
Annuity Model
The fundamentals of our business rest upon an annuity model that
drivessignicantrecurringrevenueandcashgeneration.Over80%
of our 2010 total revenue was annuity-based revenue that includes
contracted services, equipment maintenance and consumable supplies,
among other elements. Some of the key indicators of annuity revenue
growth include:
• Thenumberofpage-producingmachinesintheeld(“MIF”),whichis
impacted by the number of equipment installations
• Page volume and the mix of color pages, as color pages generate more
revenue per page than black-and-white
• Services signings growth, which reflects the year-over-year increase in
estimated future revenues from contracts signed during the period as
measured on a trailing 12-month basis
• Services pipeline growth, which measures the year-over-year increase
in new business opportunities
• Expanding the digital production printing market, as this is key to
increasing pages.
Cash Generation

and modest capital investments enabled us in 2010 to pay down a
