Canons imageRUNNER C3200 is meeting
growing needs for color documents
in offices with excellent performance,
network connectivity and high-level
document management capabilities.
In the market for professional-use full-color copying
machines, Canon strengthened its lineup with offer-
ings such as the CLC5000+ and CLC3900 and held
on to the top market share in America for the 15th
consecutive year. We are also planning products and
services to take advantage of immense potential in
the print-on-demand (POD) market in line with
structural changes in the printing industry toward
multi-lot jobs with shortened schedules.
Canon solidified its leadership of the market for analog
personal-use copying machines in 2002.
While a
major competitor withdrew from this business, we
achieved particularly strong sales in emerging markets
such as China and Russia, where we are actively
developing sales channels. Canon is also strengthening
its lineup to take advantage of the shift in America
and other markets toward digital products with multi-
ple functions such as faxing, as well as copying.
