IDC FutureScape : 세계의 이미징, 프린팅 및 문서 솔루션에 대한 예측(2025년)

This IDC study discusses worldwide imaging, printing, and document solutions top 10 predictions for 2025."Admittedly, printing and imaging may not always hold a top priority status among the IT-buying community when compared to other technology categories. Buyers should focus on ensuring that their organization's print infrastructure is running at peak cost and performance efficiency," said Keith Kmetz, program vice president for Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions research, IDC. "This means carefully watching the latest IT market trends, such as AI, and acting on how these technology advances can be applied to the existing print infrastructure. Doing so should translate into providing a set of solutions that offer organizations the latest bottom-line cost and operational benefits."
