Big Bang Disruption

RECOMMENDED

READING

By Larry Downes and Paul Nunes Review from Amazon: It used to take years or even decades for disruptive innovations to dethrone dominant products and services. But now any business can be devastated virtually overnight by something betterand cheaper. How can executives protect themselves and harness the power of Big Bang Disruption? Just a few years ago, drivers happily spent more than $200 for a GPS unit. But as smartphones exploded in popularity, free navigation apps exceeded the performance of stand-alone devices. Eighteen months after the debut of the navigation apps, leading GPS manufacturers had lost 85 percent of their market value. Larry Downes and Paul Nunes analyze the origins, economics, and anatomy of Big Bang Disruption. They identify four key stages of the new innovation life cycle, helping you spot potential disruptors in time.

Remaxexpo@Paperworld in Frankfurt...is it all that doom and gloom? By Ms. Sunny Sun, Publisher

The January day in Frankfurt was cold and gray. It was my fourth year attending Remaxexpo@Paperworld (previously called Remax), and the mood this time was not very cheery. I pondered possible explanations as to why this might be—was it the gloomy weather? Exhaustion from the long, transatlantic flight? Boredom from many years of a similar routine? I wondered if it was just me or if others felt the same way at this year's reman show in Germany. On my second day of walking about the show floor, I encountered many familiar faces and inquired as to how they felt about this year's exhibition and, as usual, about business in general these days. The responses overall seemed to be pessimistic, with only an occasional reserved optimistic remark. After three full days of walking around and interviewing as many

as possible about their impression of the state of our industry, I felt that I had seen and heard enough of the obstacles and challenges facing us. I heard the pains experienced by many exhibitors that the end result of each exhibition was price lowering, leading to a new round of fierce pricing competition. Many also felt that the industry is flooded with poor quality compatibles that also lead to deteriorated profit margins, leaving many companies to struggle to survive, let alone grow. These companies are caught in a vicious cycle of lowering the price to compete with poor quality components, in turn ending up with more RMAs that prevent them from moving up to another level of growth. Many complained that, overall, the industry is not geared up for a healthy cycle of development. In

addition to this, clone cartridges have deteriorated the market and added pressure toward drastic pricing drops that have been hurting the remanufacturing business on large scale. However, there were also some companies that spotted and embraced a world of growing opportunities. Their booths were filled with clients and customers busily engaged in business meetings and negotiations. Exhibitors such as these say that ours is not a dying industry but only an arena filled with non-per forming companies. Opportunities, they assert, are somehow created, just as roads are paved and walked by people. In other words, companies have to create and cultivate their own pathways for success. On the other hand, the rules of the game have changed as compared to ten years ago. The industry has become more mature with relatively stable technology and established sales

channels for some players. In addition, more consolidation of businesses, like Turbon acquiring ILG and China Hongbei Ding Long acquiring Mitu and Kolion Tech, will produce a stronger market presence that will further push the smaller players to struggle for survival or exit the market entirely. The market players have changed and will probably continue to change in the years to come. The reman industry, like any industry having already gone through its stages of initial fasttrack growth, is still moving forward with steady market share penetration by consolidation and has stepped into a more mature industry force that will continuously reposition itself to compete with the OEMs. The greater knowledge of the IP issues being raised in this region of Europe and the more awareness of the general rule of the game one has, the better off one would be in the market. It is important to understand that to be able to continuously grow

one’s business, one needs to comply with and respect the OEMs’ patents. This is an issue that must be addressed and that must be respected. I heard by some that during exhibition hours, OEM staff walked around to every single Chinese booth to see if there were any violations. Apparently, a few companies, mostly Chinese, were cited by Customs with a fee of 500-1500 euros, depending on the violation.

a whole substantially improved. The European market is still strong for many remanufacturing businesses, especially Chinese factories, because Europe has a taken strong stand toward the use of recycled or OEMalternative products. Culturally and traditionally, Europeans are more accepting of recycled products as there is awareness and education toward protecting the environment.

Meanwhile, two HP personnel, Elizabeth Porter and Mathew Barkley, gave presentations on chip compliance by aftermarket products to ensure there is no misconception or confusion among end-users. I personally think it is a good and positive gesture by the OEMs to engage the after market with constructive dialogue.

My personal take is that, although the internet and everincreasing social media interaction have made global distances smaller and rendered us more connected, the real face-toface interaction provided by tradeshows is irreplaceable. The closeness brought by a face-to-face meeting is hard to convey via social media messaging, and that is the reason we traveled such a long journey to meet and greet our colleagues.

On the other hand, the two separate industry forces have come a little closer in terms of market share in certain regions, meaning there is enough aftermarket product presence in the market that OEMs cannot afford to ignore. While there are still many substandard products available, the standard and quality of the remanufactured or alternative product choices have as

In conclusion, like any industry going through ups and downs, we are on a growing curve even though it may be at a much slower pace in a challenging environment. Let’s remain hopeful and value what we have accomplished thus far—a significantly growing market share and market force in the printing world that the OMEs cannot take lightly.

Exhibitors such as these say that ours is not a dying industry but only an arena filled with non-performing companies. Opportunities, they assert, are somehow created, just as roads are paved and walked by people. In other words, companies have to create and cultivate their own pathways for success.

2013 Patent Tally Builds Upon Xerox’s Innovation Heritage NORWALK, Conn., Jan 23, 2014--Xerox XRX -5.69% received 1,168 U.S. patents in 2013, making it one of the world’s top innovative companies and adding to its portfolio of over 12,100 active U.S. patents that help businesses and organizations simplify work. IFI Claims, a research company that compiles an annual patent list, ranked Xerox as 32nd in its 2013 report based on 1,013 patents, which does not include over 150 patents from its wholly owned subsidiaries, such as the Palo Alto Research Center ( PARC ), A Xerox Company. Combining subsidiaries andthe 800 U.S. patents awarded in 2013 through Xerox’s joint venture in Japan, Fuji Xerox Co. Ltd. , Xerox would be ranked 10th with 1,968 patents on the IFI Patent Intelligence list worldwide. Xerox is celebrating its 75th year of innovation which began when Chester Carlson, the company’s founding inventor, made the first xerographic copy in a make-shift lab in Astoria, Queens, N.Y. and was granted U.S. Patent 2,297,691, illustrating the basic process of xerography. “Chester Carlson’s legacy lives on through Xerox scientists and engineers around the globe who continue to help our clients create agile and personalized business processes,” said Sophie Vandebroek, Xerox chief technology officer and president of the Xerox Innovation Group. “By collaborating closely with our clients, we create differentiated document technology and simplify the way work gets done in industries such as healthcare, finance, education, customer care and transportation .”

In 2013 almost 90 scientists and engineers reached patent milestones ranging from 75 to over 300 patents.

Xerox scientists and researchers apply their expertise in areas such as imaging, data analytics, automation, personalization and sustainability to innovate simpler ways of doing business well beyond anything Carlson could have envisioned. For example: Xerox and its subsidiaries have received more than 62,000 patents worldwide since the company’s first patent was issued in 1933. The company is home to some of the world’s most prolific inventors. In 2013 almost 90 scientists and engineers reached patent milestones ranging from 75 to over 300 patents. Xerox has been awarded the National Medal of Technology , the highest honor awarded by the President of the United States and a number of innovation awards including being a three time winner on Thomson Reuters' listing of the World's 100 Most Innovative Companies and being named to MIT Technology Review’s 50 Most Disruptive Companies in 2013.

Major patent expiration could spark a second 3D printing revolution The news of the expiration of a central patent controlling production of a particular type of 3D printer caused a significant effect on the 3D printing community. The patent deals with SLS, i.e. selective laser sintering which is more advantageous than other techniques. Currently a SLS printer can cost up to $250,000 but the expiration of the patent would hopefully reduce the price. This claim is supported by evidence. There was an instantaneous, dramatic open source movement when the patent for fused deposition modeling (FDM) expired. The once corporate eccentricity transformed into a popular DIY project and companies started supplying to the new 3D printing market. The success of these unreliable printers is mainly the reason for the availability of the low-cost, mid-range printers today. SLS machines can be more advanced and beneficial than current economy-level 3D printers as they do not use traditional extruder to control the modeling material. This process is both slow and inaccurate and it creates a more or less hard limit on resolution and restricts the printing materials to a great extent. Previously FDM mostly used plastics but it is now being replaced with carbon fiber. Plastic, metal, ceramic or even glass can be printed using the technology of SLS machines. Only if the cost of this was reduced then there would have been an outbreak in the usage of 3D printing. According to some people the patent at issue here is old and it includes only the primary principle of additive printing. Companies have spent a very long period of time improving the technology and those proprietary devices are all still kept safe from start-ups and hobbyists. The expiration of the patent would enable new companies or individuals to bring SLS printers to market. Whether entering the SLS market would be financially viable is an issue to consider because it includes high-powered precision lasers which makes it uncertain if the technology can be made cheaply. The companies may also find no appropriate market. Moreover further improvement on SLS technology may conflict with existing patents. However these problems were still there when FDM printers were launched but now they are quite cheap and can even be bought at $300. Still if the tech demotes in case of resolution or range of materials, the basic principle could yet make its way to the open source scene. Though the open source printing community slowed down in the past few months, the new legal way of printing now available could help them to speed up again.

Brother coy over 3D printing plans Brother, printer and scanner specialist is not saying anything regarding its plan to enter the 3D printer sector whereas both Dell and HP announced their intentions to enter the market. Phil Jones, MD of Brother (UK), said that according to the analysts 3D printing market is filled with huge opportunities, be that consumerised or in a more commercial environment. He added that just like every print vendor, Brother, too is evaluating and analyzing their future in 3D printing but it is not decided yet whether Brother would enter the market or not. Jones furthermore shared his thoughts on how he conceives the printer market will evolve in 2014. He noted that print is changing and they are experiencing increased demand for portable printing and carbased printing. He emphasized that software has stirred a lot of attention and interest, lately. They might install software on people’s networks, enabling them to work more efficiently and reducing wastage of paper.

Mobile Printing Apps: Getting Better When everyone started using a smartphone, printer making firms needed to find a way of printing documents from these devices. Most of them preferred the idea of making applications which can send documents to printers from the smartphones and for which they hired

app firms. This was not a problem as the majority of the the new printers have built-in wireless connections. Nearly all smartphones and tablets lack innate printing ability built in for which the app has to conduct everything starting from grabbing attachments to responding to “share” request from another app. Printing from these apps differs from that of a Windows or Mac computer. The printing apps pass a document over to the printer. Sometimes, at a later date, documents can be printed from phones even

though it wasn’t possible the first time so it is highly recommended to check now and then if the wireless printer supports printing through mobile apps as printer manufacturers sometimes combine older printers to their apps’ function. Mostly it is suggested to check whether Apple’s AirPlay system or Google’s Cloud Print system supports the printer. A list of the top printer maker’s printing apps is given below. Almost all of them can print photos stored on the phone. The list below contains some of the services they provide.

Canon U.S.A. Announces Mobile Scanning App for Home and Office Users Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, recently announced its Canon Mobile Scanning for Business App for iPhone and iPad, adding mobile scan workflow capability to Canon's already extensive support for mobile office users and consumers. Canon Mobile Scanning for Business enables users in homes and offices to scan jobs from a supported imageCLASS multifunction printer (MFP) directly into their compatible iPhone or iPad device to support a user's portability, distribution or backup needs. The Canon Mobile Scanning for Business app is compatible with select Canon imageCLASS desktop laser MFPs, including the MF4770n/MF4880dw/MF4890dw, MF5950dw/MF5960dn, MF6160dw/MF6180dw, MF8280Cw/MF8580Cdw and D1320/D1350/D1370 MFPs. Users can initiate scans in JPEG (individual files for each page) or PDF form (one multi-page file) directly through the app's user-friendly interface. "Today's mobile workers need real-time fingertip access to their documents, including those originating in hard copy form," said Sam Yoshida, vice president and general manager, Marketing, Business Imaging Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A. "The new Canon Mobile Scanning for Business App gives mobile users more flexibility and control to help manage their documents on the go." The Canon Mobile Scanning for Business App features the following tools:

Intuitive MFP Communication The app can search for and identify compatible Canon MFPs within a wireless broadcast range - and automatically save these devices for future use. If the Canon MFP cannot be found within a wireless broadcast range, users can manually enter the IP address of the compatible Canon device to list it as one of their available scan devices. Once discovered, users can easily toggle between compatible devices to initiate scan jobs from multiple MFPs.

Wide Range of Compatibility Aims to Provide a Satisfying End-User Experience The app supports devices running iOS 5.1 or later and is available for the iPhone 5S, iPhone 5C, iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, the New iPad (4th Generation), iPad (3rd Generation), iPad 2, the original iPad and the iPad Mini.

Opportunity to Choose Scan Settings Helps Optimize Workflow A variety of built-in scanning options empower users to enhance control and performance. Users can tailor scan resolution, paper size, file format, color mode and two-sided (duplex) scanning directly from the app. Additionally, users can instruct the app to initiate scan jobs from either the platen glass or via the auto document feeder.

Scanned File Distribution Capability Once an original is scanned from a compatible MFP, users can opt to save the file to built-in local application storage (Camera Roll, My Documents) for later retrieval, attach it to a pre-set email address for distribution to colleagues, open it into another iOS application via the OpenIn feature for further management or open it into the Canon Mobile Printing app to quickly print the file through a compatible MFP (users who have not previously downloaded the free Canon Mobile Printing application for iOS will be automatically directed to the App StoreSM.

As with almost all HP cartridges now, these new cartridges use a chip that controls the toner low functions and must be replaced each cycle. The CE283A is rated for 1,500 pages. The printer itself has a very small foot print. It’s a nice small office/ home machine. The memory is fixed and not expandable at 128Mb. The recommended monthly volume is from 250-2000 pages/month. These machines also have a new feature called “Smart install” the printer driver is built into the printer so no drivers need to be installed. Just plug in the USB or Ethernet cable it installs itself with fairly minor The printer when new comes with a starter cartridge that is rated for 700 pages at 5% coverage, so your customers will be coming to you fairly quickly! The starter cartridges and replacement CE283A (1500 page) cartridges are physically the same so you can make a standard cartridge from the starter. So far there are four printers based on this engine. The MFP M125, MFP M127, M201 and the MFP M225 The new 83A cartridge is a modified version of the older P1102 cartridges. In fact many parts for those cartridges work in these also. Conversion kits are being developed now and should be available as you read this. Cartridge troubleshooting will be

covered at the end of this article. The theory for these cartridges is a little different from past versions so we have covered it here. You don’t have to know the theory to remanufacture cartridges, but it sure helps if you have a problem. Troubleshooting time can be dramatically reduced. For example: knowing that the PCR both charges and erases the drum tells you that if there is a backgrounding problem, a ghosting problem or light print. They could all be caused by the PCR. (Erasing poorly = backgrounding and/or ghosting; Poor charging light print and/ or backgrounding)

Cartridge Theory: Figure A gives a nice block diagram of the printing process

is part of the latent Image formation block. See Figure B

Figure B In the second step, the laser beam is fired onto a rotating mirror (called the scanner). As the mirror rotates, the beam reflects into a set of focusing lens. The beam then strikes the OPC’s surface, which neutralizes the negative charge on the drum and leaves a latent electrostatic image on the drum. Note that the laser unit actually fires 2 beams, this allows for faster printing. See Figures C&D

Figure A The image formation process consists of a series of steps. In the first step, the Primary Charge roller (PCR) places a uniform negative DC Bias voltage on the OPC drum surface. The amount of the negative DC Bias placed on the drum is controlled by the printer’s intensity setting. This process

Remanufacturing the HP LaserJet Pro MFP M125 Series toner cartridge CF283A

Figure D is where the toner image is developed on the drum by the developing section, (or supply chamber), which contains the toner particles. The toner is held to the magnetic roller sleeve by the stationary magnet inside the sleeve, and a DC bias voltage supplied by the high voltage power supply. This DC bias voltage is controlled by the printer’s density setting, and causes either more or less toner to be attracted to the drum. This in turn will either increase or decrease the print density. Both the Primary Charge roller and magnetic roller DC Bias voltages are controlled by the printer’s density setting. The amount of toner on the magnetic roller sleeve is also controlled by the rubber Doctor blade, which uses pressure to keep the amount of toner on the magnetic roller sleeve constant. This blade also causes a static charge to build up on the toner, which helps keep the coating of toner even, and allows easy transfer to the OPC drum. At the same time an AC signal is also placed on the magnetic roller sleeve. This signal decreases the attraction of the toner to the Magnetic Roller sleeve, and increases the repelling action of toner against the areas of the drum that was not exposed to the laser beam.

Figure E

Continued

This AC potential improves the density, and contrast of the toner on the printed page. See Figure E As the laser exposed areas of the OPC drum approach the magnetic roller, the toner particles are attracted to the drums sur face due to the opposite voltage potentials of the toner, and laser exposed surface of the OPC drum. In the fourth step (transfer block) the toner image is then transferred to the paper as it passes below the drum by the transfer charge roller, which places a positive charge on the back of the paper. This positive charge causes the negatively charged toner on the drum’s surface to be attracted to the page. The small diameter of the drum, combined with the stiffness of the paper causes the paper to peel away from the drum. See Figure F

they have a Brush which has a DC Bias charge on it to help keep the film clean. See Figure G

Figure G In the Seventh step the OPC drum is cleaned. On average, approximately 95% of the toner is transferred to the paper during the print cycle. As the drum rotates during printing, the remaining 5% of the toner that is on the OPC drum is cleaned off the drum by the wiper blade. It is then guided into the waste chamber by the recovery blade, and stored in the waste chamber. See Figure H

Figure F In the fifth step (also part of the transfer block) the paper separates from the drum. The static charge eliminator weakens the attractive forces between the negatively charged drum surface, and the positively charged paper. This prevents toner dropouts onto the paper at low temperatures and humidity and also prevents paper from wrapping around the drum. In the Sixth step the image is then fused on to the paper by the fuser assembly, which is comprised of the upper fixing film assembly and the lower fuser roller. The paper passes between a heated upper fixing film assembly and a soft lower rubber roller. The upper heated element then melts the toner into the paper. The fixing film assembly consists of a Teflon sleeve with a ceramic heating element inside. These fusers are a bit different in that

Figure H Step 8 is where the residual charge is eliminated. The Primary Charge Roller places an AC voltage across the drum sur face which erases any residual charges on the drum. This drum charge elimination is only turned on during the last rotation period of the drum. Figures I-T show the physical differences between the CE278A, the CE285A and the new CF283A cartridges.

打印其实是一项适合企业使用的技术。用 3D 打印技术 取代传统的注塑工艺,为厂家提供制造快速成型模具的 服务。 3D 打印发展的瓶颈是材料。目前市场常用的是塑料 耗材,作一些小饰品。利润率较高的是金属耗材类。如 航空航天、汽车高端复杂部件及其轻量化等方面都急需 金属材料,它们有巨大的发展空间,但现在能掌握加工 技术的制造商很少。这些防碍了 3D 打印纵深的发展, 也是一时间难以解决行业发展的关键。 亚洲再生业:3D 打印市场在哪儿?有人认为,3D 其实质就是卖软件,卖方案。您认为呢? 刘树果:3D 打印满足了个性化的需求。从目前的技 术发展来看,3D 打印技术应用最好的还是设计部门,产 品的模型通过 3D 打印技术实现,随着技术的不断进步, 3D 打印还将在实物打印领域有着更广阔的前景。最近市 场上出现的 3D 相馆说明三维成像技术开始步入民众生 活。 中国工程院院士、西安交通大学机械工程学院院长 卢秉恒首创“快速制造国家工程研究中心”,是 3D 打 印领域的学科带头人,被誉为“中国 3D 打印第一人”。 他认为,理论界的预期只是一种展望,尚需时间来检验, 而企业家的应用的确说明了这项技术面临的困境和需要 攻克的难题。 中国是制造业大国,有三四千年历史沉淀,3D 打印 的发展才 30 年,社会科技的进步,3D 打印结合信息技术、 材料科技,应用一定能找到突破口。

总结: 3D 打印技术现已广泛应用于众多领 域。该技术的发展方向将更趋向于日常消费 品制造、功能零件制造及组织与结构一体化制造。 一个无可否认的现实是,目前 3D 打印的产值在全 球制造业中所占份额依旧微不足道。2011 年,全球 3D 打印市场规模为 17.1 亿美元,仅占全球制造业总产出的 0.02%。现在人们炒 3D 的发展,只是因为市场小。 据《沃勒斯报告 2012》显示,截至 2011 年,全球累计销售 4.9 万台工业级 3D 打印机,其中近四分之三由美国制造,以色 列和欧洲各国的份额分别为 9.3% 和 10.2%,中国生产的设 备仅占 3.6%,与日本相当。2012 年,世界 3D 打印行业 的产值约 100 亿元人民币,国内大概是 3 亿多元人民 币;预计 2015 年,3D 打印行业销售额将增加至 37 亿美元;到 2019 年,该行业的收入将达 69 亿美元,其中成品产值预计将占 80%。 www.rechargeasia.com

聚焦:中国团队推出 " 水代油墨 " 打印 Chinese Team Releases "Spray Water Inkless Printing"

国产打印耗材的市场前景和发展空间很大的,每年以 8% 以上的速度在增加,这也是整个耗材行业的发展趋势,国产 打印耗材因为价格便宜、找有实力的厂家合作,质量有保证、 售后服务有保障,做起来会更轻松。 有位行业老板说 , 做生意最重要就是把握趋势,看好了 趋势再放开去做 , 好不好做得看个人,客户渠道,货源,管理, 方法,技术,服务,做人等,综合各方面的因素。选择一个 最适合自己的品牌 , 需要在质量和价格找到最适合自己的平衡 点。既然认准了耗材行业 , 就要根据自身的条件,选择一个 最适合的品牌产品很重要的 , 其次就是代理合作政策一定要 有利于自己发展 , 启动前要考察好你要做的品牌的实力及代 理合作产品,厂家理念和发展战略。 每个人都希望能找到一份安全,又能稳定盈利的事业,

打印机墨盒不单贵的离谱,还不环保,即便如此也没有 妨碍销售,毕竟没有人喜欢对着屏幕阅读的体验。我们中国 的科学家发明了一种全新墨水技术可以用水完全替代墨盒里 的彩色油墨。 吉林大学化学教授张小安和他的团队开发出一种用水代 替油墨的技术。张小安深知墨盒对环境的危害,森林消失会 加重能源危机和温室效应,但是全世界办公室员工都喜欢把 电子邮件之类无用信息打印成纸张 ( 据统计办公室产生的文 件中 40% 只用一次,美国人一年要产生 7000 万吨废纸 ),张 小安利用一种遇湿变色的特种纸张,使水变油墨成为可能。 张的团队把这种技术叫做“喷水可重复打印技术”,这 种技术对纸张进行预处理,在纸上预先上好隐形染料,染料 遇水变色,水分蒸发后又可重复打印。

而打印机耗材恰好满足这些条件, 1. 它具有周期性短,客户回头率高的特点。 2. 县城和地级市的话,市场正处于初级启蒙阶段。 3. 很少有专业做这个项目和生意。 4. 国外原装打印耗材的企业和单位,现在为了节约成本, 改用成本很低的国产打印耗材。 5. 随着自动化办公的普及,电脑和打印机已经变得非常 普遍,再小的店也会装配;个人用户群也在不断增加。

Welcome to RechargExpo India! If you have ever watched Peter Russell, the Canadian-Indian comedian, then you would know how tough it is to get the Chinese and Indians to do business together.

The episode implies that Indians always demand a deal, and that the Chinese very rarely give in to their demands to make a deal. True or false, you be the judge, but the meaning of this comedy describes two tough nations dealing with a tough economy and are then driven to negotiate the best possible deals.

China and India are two countries with the world’s largest population. Both are fast growing, emerging economies with hard working people that have inherited a rich culture. There is common ground to collaborate and to take advantage of fast moving trends in our industry.

We are proud to launch 2014 RechargExpo India, in New Delhi, March 6-8 at NSIC, which aims to develop this stage for you to play on and capture the opportunities in the growing regions. Welcome and enjoy the show!
