Commercial Printers Down 7.2%

Consistent with our Coy Paper earlier releases, initial reports outline shipments for commercial printers declined 7.2% in January (versus January 2009) to $6.7Billion. Many believe this might be a trend, with the advent of EReaders and other electronic devices cannibalizing traditional print.

printers back logs are down, yet I read paper shipments are up. Where is the paper going? Also, I fear the latest round of price announcements could effect the printers even more. Will you be publishing results for February Printer's shipments?

Model for future has to be declining printer shipments. This market must adjust their model for less sales. My advise is to transition into electronic media or a niche.
