The gross profit ratio remained at a high level due to highly profitable new products and ongoing cost-cutting activities. Operating profit declined by 5.3% YTY to JPY ¥104.7 billion(USD $847.6 million), as operating expenses increased 7.0% year on year to JPY ¥399.1 billion(USD $3.2billion). In the second quarter, Net income was JPY ¥68.2 billion (USD $552 million), down 15.7% compared to the same period last year.
Other income (deductions) saw a decline of JPY ¥7.9 billion (USD $64 million), resulting in a year-on-year decline in income before income taxes of 11.7% to JPY ¥103.2 billion (USD $835 million) and a decrease in net income attributable to Canon Inc. of 15.7% to ¥68.2 billion (USD $552 million). Operating profit for the first half of the year decreased by 11.5% to ¥170.9 billion (USD $1.4 billion) while income before income tax decreased by 16.1% to ¥164.5 billion (USD $1.3 billion) whilst first-half net income attributable to Canon Inc. decreased by 20.5% to ¥102.1 billion(USD $827 million).  
Results regarding market segments indicated that office multifunction devices (MFDs) and laser printers continued to show strong demand, particularly for color models. Despite the steadily growing demand for color models, total sales volume for laser printer decreased due to weak sales of monochrome models. As a result, sales for Office business unit totaled JPY ¥537.0 billion (USD $4.3 million), up 2.8% year-on-year, while operating profit for the unit declined of 9.9% to JPY ¥79.4 billion (USD $643 million), due to the increase in R&D and other expenses.
Forecasts for the third quarter indicates that demand for MFDs (color models in particular) and color multifunction models in the laser printer market continue to expand. Considering the weak market conditions in Southeast Asia countries, inkjet printers, as indicated, will see a year-on-year decline in sales.

Hewlett Packard Sued for False Advertising

A customer named Anne Wolf has sued Hewlett Packard as its printers don't operate as advertised, according to legalnewsline.com. 
Wolf accordingly filed the lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California on June 22. The plaintiff tried to prevent HP from advertising that its printers have a “HP Smart Install” feature, which has been used by HP to advertise that its printers can automatically download software from the Internet. The plaintiff explained, “On the outside of the boxes of these printers, there is a statement assuring customers that these printers will be easy to install because of the inclusion of the HP Smart Install feature”.
Further, Wolf seeks class action status for the customers who purchased the printers expecting the “HP Smart Install” function. She also seeks damages of more than US$5 million, plus court costs.

UK Banks Send Out Nearly 40,000 Tons of Paper Every Year




Banking customers in UK receive more than 1.2 billion (almost 40,000 tons) paper communications from their bank every year, including letters and statements, according to intelligentenvironments.com.  

As reported, an online poll of 2,000 British revealed that although two thirds of people (65%) have a digital bank account, more than three quarters (79.5%) still opt in to receive additional paper statements and two thirds (66%) explain they still need the paper for identification purposes. 

The reporter believed customers to use online paperless banking is not only environmentally friendly but also could save UK banks £243 million (US$371 million) on stationery expenses. It calling on banks to step up their communications efforts to improve customer awareness of going paperless. 

David Webber, Managing Director of Intelligent Environments, supported the calling and noted, “Incentives should also be considered for those that decide to make the shift to paperless. Our research shows that 37% of consumers would be more likely to use digital banking or go paperless if their bank offered a financial incentive.”

Green Cartridges, Green World


Green Cartridges, Green World
On the same earth, everyone is responsible for environment protection, so do we.
In the recent year, customers' demand for compatible inkjets is boosting, however, on this important moment, Zhuhai Aicon Image Co., Ltd. made a great decision to expand its remanufacturing business.
So far as we know, the average collecting rate of cartridges with printheads all over the world is around 1.2%, which means only about 5 millions pieces are collected to be made good use of one more time, however, that in China is much lower than the average in this industry.
In passed few years, we found remanufactured cartridges took a stable portion although under great pressure from compatibles.
HP 61XLCanon PG210/CL211HP 932XL/933XL


As the times require, some small remanufactured factory emerged in some developed countries for the passed several decades, which misunderstood by some of us that remanufacturing cartridges is an easy job with small investment.
However, to be professional, Aicon is concentrated on empties collecting, automatic production and engineer elites, which helps to keep Aicon competitive and irreplaceable.
aicon1aicon2
As common sense, qualified empty is one of the most important factors to affect both stability and prices of  remanufactured cartridges, which makes it a must for Aicon to use virgin empties, who has its own local channel to collect empties easily with competitive prices so as to keep its top place in this industry.
What's more, Aicon polishes every process of remanufacturing to precise, even like cleaning empties, and automatic machines as well as organized managements bring great efficiency on production.
As an enterprise concentrated on environment protection, Aicon strictly follow the government policy to apply one-stop disposal solution of sewage, which highlighted all the production.
After all, the reason for massive used cartridges abandoned, instead of collected is that human beings' consciousness of environmental protection is still poor and need to be raised , meanwhile, we lack efficient methods on construction of collection channels and impactful government intervention on collection industry.
aicon6
To move on successfully, incentive policy to related enterprises on constructing collecting channels is necessary as well as to encourage and remind people on building environmental protection habits, which would be a long-term task to the government, enterprises and society, but we believe, through our efforts together, the living environment will be improved to better with collection of recyclable resources.

How to solve Leakage problem for color toner cartridges

How to solve Leakage problem for color toner cartridges

As feedback from customers that HP540-3,HP530-3 is easy to have leakage problem during the

transportation,we did research and purchased a machine as below picture to solve this problem.

Firstly,the clean blade material was changed from TET to PU.

Secondly,the clean blade is installed by machine automatically instead of manual work.(Most of

manufactures use manual)

It avoids leakage so the quality keep much stable.

Court Decision Favors 123inkt against Samsung, Again

123inkt.nl, the Netherlands-based webshop for toner and ink cartridges, won the appeal in its patent dispute with Samsung. 
123inkt.nl was accused of breaching Samsung’s patent EP-2397914-B1 (EP914) with the use of aftermarket chips it used in its range of aftermarket Samsung laser printer cartridges. In a judgement at the District Court at The Hague, dated 30th October 2014, the court ruled in favor of 123inkt.nl.
Samsung filed an appeal. However, all claims of Samsung were rejected by the Hague Court of Appeal again. During the trial, the court found the patent of Samsung non-inventive and there is a high probability the patent will be invalidated.
Gerben Kreuning, Director of 123inkt.nl, is pleased with the result of the lawsuit, as the company could continue to sell its own brand toners for Samsung printers. He is glad that the court has ruled on two occasions in favor of 123inkt.nl. He believes Samsung’s patent on the chip is not inventive and it is being used as a means of enforcing a monopoly on the sale of after-market toners.
