Print’s Power Shift: Inkjet Is the Future

The room was packed for the opening session of Inkjet Summit 2025.

“By 2028, nearly a quarter of all document pages will be inkjet.”

Marco Boer, president of IT Strategies and Inkjet Summit conference chair, shared that statistic during the opening keynote session at the 13th annual Inkjet Summit. He also noted that, in 2024, 16% of all document pages were printed on inkjet, but added that by 2028 that number will climb to 24% — almost a quarter of printed pages.

Monday kicked off day one of the event, this year held at the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort & Spa in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. The day began with a golf outing for those looking for a little fun to go along with all the beautiful sun, but the main event began in the afternoon, with three great sessions to get everyone excited about the next few days.

To truly set the stage, Boer presented “A Definitive Break in the Print Industry Business Model: Moving from a Labor Intensive to a Capital Intensive Industry.” He noted that first and foremost, we are moving from a commodity industry to a luxury — something brands are looking to get value from, not just throw away. In fact, Boer stressed that over the next few years, he sees overall volumes declining, but the value of what remains will be just as high, if not higher, than the jobs done today.
