The global inkjet printing market size was valued at USD 101.23 billion in 2023 and reached USD 109.73 billion in 2024.* We’ll look at applications of Lean and Six Sigma and finish with a video of the engineering behind inkjet printers.
Implementing Six Sigma in a Manufacturing Process for Inkjet Printers Circuit Cartridges
In a case study titled “Implementation of Six Sigma in a Manufacturing Process: A Case Study” authors Adan Valles and others present a Six Sigma project conducted at a semiconductor company dedicated to the manufacture of circuit cartridges for inkjet printers.
The case study includes:
- Box Plot of Failure Rate
- Measurement System Study
- Cause and Effect Matrix
- Boxplots of the Percentage of Electrical Faults vs. the Thickness of the Procoat Layer
- Box Plots of Rejection Rate Before and After Implementation
- Distribution of Defects Before and After

Using Lean and Agile in the Large Format Inkjet Printing Business
In an article titled “Imprinting on lean” authors Xavier Bruch, Vicenç Llorens and Guayente Sanmartín Gabás discuss how the Large Format Inkjet Printing business pioneered the use of Lean and Agile in all its Barcelona operations.
“The success of the pilots showed people that lean was a way to empower them to improve the work and anticipate and solve problems.”
