Xerox Raises Consumable Prices

Xerox is raising prices on about 80 consumables, including toner cartridges and solid ink sticks for Phaser printers and some WorkCentre branded products. The price increases vary from around 2.9% to 5.6 % and are more targeted than price hikes Xerox made in 2012.

In 2012, almost every printer OEM raised supplies pricing. When HP and Lexmark said at the end of 2012 that they would raise the price on their consumables prices in 2013, speculators assumed that others would soon follow. Thus far this year, increases have been more selective. Xerox is increasing selected toner cartridges and ink stick pricing for its legacy printers.
