Top 100 Key Players companies in Laser printing
by Highest Patent Value in the Japan in 2019

The Laser printing top 100 is Discovery PatSnap’ annual ranking of the top 100 Highest Patent Value Laser printing Key Players in the Japan. Discovery has identified the top key players, startups & unicorns, fast-growings, news entrants in 2019, ranking from differnt perspectives, including patent filing intensity, academic research capability, news media heat. The company list is generated from various data types.
Laser printing is an electrostatic digital printing process. It produces high-quality text and graphics (and moderate-quality photographs) by repeatedly passing a laser beam back and forth over a negatively charged cylinder called a "drum" to define a differentially charged image. The drum then selectively collects electrically charged powdered ink (toner), and transfers the image to paper, which is then heated in order to permanently fuse the text, imagery, or both, to the paper. As with digital photocopiers, laser printers employ a xerographic printing process. Laser printing differs from traditional xerography as implemented in analog photocopiers in that in the latter, the image is formed by reflecting light off an existing document onto the exposed drum.
