Press release from the issuing company:
Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. has announced it has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide High-Speed Digital Label Printers 2025 Vendor Assessment (Doc #US51812724e, August 2025).
The report notes, “The high-speed digital label printer market is undergoing the same type of digital transformation we have seen in other segments of the printing market, with a portion of the total label volume moving from analog to digital production based on digital printing’s economic advantages for short runs. The demand for digital production is based on a move to shorter runs and on-demand production to impact consumer decisions and eliminate waste.”
According to the IDC MarketScape, “Over that time, Konica Minolta has placed more than 1,700 of its toner-based label presses, which have found a “sweet spot” in the digital label press market with their combination of quality and productivity.” In North America, the company is on target to reach 2,000 installations in FY2025. The report recognized Konica Minolta for the following strengths:
- Konica Minolta offers ongoing business development support through its Marketing Assurance Program, which helps print service providers identify and expand into new markets.
- The Konica Minolta AccurioLabel is a simple device, configurable with optional finishing for more automated production.
- Konica Minolta offers its own IC-605 digital front end and partners to offer a Creo controller as an option for either the AccurioLabel 230 or AccurioLabel 400.
- The AccurioLabel is a smaller device, requiring less of a footprint while maintaining robust production capabilities.
- The AccurioLabel presses offer low power consumption through Konica Minolta’s advanced HDE toner, which lowers fusing temperature, also saving on energy costs.
“Being named a Leader by the IDC MarketScape reaffirms our commitment to driving innovation and customer success,” said Frank Mallozzi, President, IPP, Konica Minolta. “Our AccurioLabel portfolio continues to empower print providers to achieve higher productivity, superior quality and more sustainable, profitable growth.”
“We continue to engineer solutions that make digital production smarter and more accessible,” added Mallozzi. “With the AccurioLabel’s trusted performance and advanced design, we’re enabling printers to innovate faster and capture new business opportunities.”
