Global market for mobile/portable printers is projected to surpass USD13 billion by 2020

Increasing demand for smartphones, tablet PCs and other mobile devices along with growing trend towards cloud printing, mobile workforce and field sales is expected to drive mobile/portable printers market through 2020. In 2014, Asia-Pacific emerged as the largest market for mobile/portable printers due to high demand from various end user sectors. During 2015-20, retail sector would continue to be the largest end-user of mobile / portable printers, followed by transportation and hospitality sectors.

Initial adoption for these types of printers was predominantly witnessed in North America and Europe. Advancements in printer technologies such as thermal mobile printers that use thermal paper instead of ribbons or cartridges are propelling sales of mobile/portable printers, globally.
