PRODUCT PROFILE
3+
9aser printers are designed to handle a larger load than ink2et printers. They tend to have a higher paper capacity, which means that they hold more paper. The actual amount of printing that the machine can handle is called the duty cycle and is usually stated in so many copies per month. 7or example, a monthly duty cycle of ,,+++ means that the printer can handle a volume of ,,+++ sheets in a monthIs time. If one anticipates printing a lot, one will need to purchase a printer with a duty cycle that is high enough for the needs. 4o if one will be printing a large number of documents, a laser printer will be the choice.
1. .1.2 SPEED
"ost printer speeds are measured in ppm or pages per minute. There is usually a different speed listed for printing in color. 7or example, black text may print at a speed of 3* ppm while color may print at a speed of 3+ ppm. 4peed may be important, or it may not be. If one wants instant results without a wait, one must look for a faster printer. If on a tight budget, they look for a printer with the best color reproduction should be the choice without worrying about the speed.

1. .1.
COST OF OPERATION
Bhen buying a printer, the cost of consumables should be considered in addition
to the initial cost of the printer. Ink2et printers use ink cartridges, while laser printers user toner cartridges and drums. The cost of ink cartridges can be surprisingly high. The least expensive printer may be the most expensive to operate. 4ome printers may themselves be inexpensive, but hefty ink or toner cartridge prices can make them more expensive in the long run. It is easy to check the price of toner or ink cartridges before buying the printerF however, it can be difficult to 2udge the yield that you will get from one cartridge. 4ome printer manufacturers like 8ewlett !ackard and 5pson give the technical specifications for page yield per cartridgeF others give some indication of yields. 8owever, some printer cartridge manufacturers give no specs of this type, leaving the purchaser in the dark as to the actual cost of operation. "any manufacturers offer good information about how long a print cartridge will last. This information is usually found under the product specifications for each printer. 8ewlett !ackard did not give a per page cost. 5pson, however, was more detailed in their information and included data on both the black and color ink cartridge life for each of their printers. They gave details regarding the number of pages to expect from a cartridge. This is very important information, since each printer uses a specific type of ink cartridge. Although most of these cartridges cost between :s 3,++ and :s *+++, they hold different amounts of ink.
1. .1.! CONNECTION
"ost !%s have a parallel port that can be used to hook up a printer. Newer !%s and "acs have A4E $Aniversal 4erial Eus& ports that can also be used to hook up a printer. "any printers today will allow the use of either of these ports. If you have the choice, the A4E connection will be easier to set up and faster to use. If the printer is A4E *.+ and you have A4E *.+ ports on your computer, the communication between the computer and the printer will be very speedy. If the printer is A4E *.+ and your older computer has A4E 3.3 ports, the printer will still work fine, it will simply communicate with the computer at a slower speed.

1. .1.5 $ARRANTY
As usual when purchasing computer(related e'uipment, it is important to check out the length of the warranty and the strength of the technical support team. It will be useful to see if the printer manufacturer has a toll(free telephone number and check on their support hours.
1. .1.& SOFT$ARE
"any printers today come with additional software. !rinter selection must be based on the print 'uality, speed, and other printer features. 8owever, be aware that some of the additional software may provide a compelling reason to purchase. The software should not be the basis of the decision on a printerF consider it a bonus. Eut check out the software as well, 2udging it on its stand(alone merit. 0ften the software is geared specifically to either the home user or the office user.

"ost of the respondents are not aware of the total cost of ownership and cost per copy of various Toner cartridges in the market.

This reason mainly influences some costumers to go for refilling their Toner. 4o proper communication can be given to the users and proper positioning $price& can be done in order to convince the consumers to use toners instead of refilling old ones.
The branded toners have a considerable market share and the customers are happy with the products. The consumers rank Image Duality and !rice as the most important attributes of a toner. 8ence the company should focus on these attributes while marketing their toner.
As significant 'uantity is bought through tenders, the company can also think on providing low price models in order to cover all corporate, financial institutions, Eanking Industry, 5ducational Institutions, IT Industry, "edical Industry and also compete with existing players in the market.

CONCLUSION
The study was conducted in %hennai city to understand the toner replacement market. The market volume is assessed through the number of pages printed per day and the fre'uency of toner replacement. It is found that -?/ of the consumers replace their toners at least once in a month. It is also found that .=/ of the consumers buy original toners while =</ of the consumers resort to refilling. It is found that Erand name, Duality and %ost form the important basis in the choice of toner. 8ence any new entrant in the market will have to spend considerable efforts and resources in creating a brand image in addition to the traditional factors of 'uality and cost. It is found that 8! is the market leader in both !rinters and Toners. They have a <,/ market share. In the presence of such a strong brand, any new entrant will find market penetration 'uite difficult. 8owever the other side of the coin is that anyone who wants to enter the replacement market can focus on a narrow set of products to reach volumes without the need for great variety. It is found that Image Duality and !rice are the most important attributes that the customers look for in the toners. It is necessary for the manufacturer to concentrate on these factors to gain reasonable market share.
,+
"any of the large buyers resort to tendering process to purchase their re'uirements. This segment of the market is a high volume( low margin market. 7urther the original printer manufacturers are also very strong in the toner supply market. To compete against such brands, low cost and high 'uality are essential. In conclusion it can be said that the 9aser Toner market is a large market where branded suppliers dominate. Any new entrant to the market can compete only in terms of low price and high 'uality. 4ince there is a single brand with a very high market share, the new entrant should concentrate on the replacement market for that single brand thus avoiding the complexities of large variety.
