The Africa printer market has attracted a significant number of market players in recent times. Formlabs, a U.S.-based resin 3D printer manufacturer, has recently announced its international distribution partnership with Build Volume, a South African player in the 3D printer market. The first printer in this series is Form 1, which applies stereolithography (a process in which a laser is utilized to solidify dots in a pool of liquid plastic resin that harden into a print) for printing instead of plastic filament, which is used in traditional printers. The printer has been priced around US$ 2534.3 per unit.
On the other hand, the South African wing of Konica Minolta has recently launched four new wireless printers, namely AirPrint, Android Printing Framework, Google Cloud Print, and Mopria Print Service, in a bid to expand its wireless capabilities and meet the expectations of mobile users.
