Mr William See, country sales manager (AEC), and Mr Albert Seah, market development manager (AEC), HP Imaging and Printing Group, described the inventions that the giant has incorporated in its products to offer customers the best value for their money. HP is the largest manufacturer in IT equipment in the world, earning US$92 billion-plus revenue in 2006. It is ranked number one in mono and colour laser printers, scanners, large format printers, print servers and ink and laser supplies. The giant has supplied over 525 million printers worldwide of which more than 100 million are laserjet.
