Office automation equipment include various machines used in offices for carrying out multiple tasks like creating copies of documents, sending and receiving important data etc. These products help in managing and electronically transferring business information easily when required. Office automation equipment include fax machines, photocopying machines, printers, scanners etc. Usage of these machines has simplified the work and drastically reduced the time taken to complete different tasks. In this competitive business environment time management is extremely important and the major advantages of using these products are that they save time and reduce costs in the long run.

There is a huge market for these office automation equipment due to their increased use in offices. The total increase in the shipments for printers was more than 25 million in 2006, which is much more than 21.4 million in 2005. The revenue for worldwide scanner manufacturing industry is expected to reach US$ 2.6 billion in 2006 and the worldwide sale of fax machines will reach 13.8 million machines in 2006.

Printers

Printers are devices used to produce hard copies of documents that are stored in an electronic form (soft copy), on a paper. Printers are devices that are used in offices, businesses and education. Some of the major advantages of using printers in office are that they save time (many copies can produced in lesser time) and thus reduce cost in the long run. The different types of printers are inkjet, laser, color laser, single function printer and multifunctional peripherals (MFP's). The most popular printer manufacturing companies are Hewlett-Packard, Xerox Corporation, Canon Inc., Ricoh Corporation and Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. An important development in the printers manufacturing industry is the increase in demand for color laser printers. According to an estimate the color laser printer alone will earn revenues worth 5.7 billion US$ by the end of 2010.

Photocopy Machine

Photocopy machines are devices that are used to reproduce copies of a text or image on paper. Photocopiers have multiple advantages like they easily reproduce copies of text or image taking very less time, they do not make noise while doing so, thus keeping the office environment noise free and they have fewer moving parts which means that mechanical breakdown rate is less (chances of machine developing fault). Besides that the quality of the copy produced is very good. This is the reason why the popularity of photocopiers has not lowered down and this industry annually generates US$ 24 billion in revenue and sells around 1.5 million copiers every year.

There are many types of photocopy machines. On the basis of technology they can be differentiated as analog photocopy machine and digital photocopy machine and according to the usage the different types of machines are color photocopiers, laser photocopiers, high-speed photocopiers etc.
