According to a recent market report published by [Future Market Insights](https://www.financedigest.com/kombucha-tea-market-is-expected-to-register-a-12-3-cagr-between-2022-and-2032-analysis-by-future-market-insights-inc.html "Kombucha Tea Market is expected to register a 12.3% CAGR between 2022 and 2032 | Analysis by Future Market Insights Inc.") titled “Disc Printers Market: U.S., Europe & Japan Industry Analysis & Opportunity Assessment, 2016-2026” the U.S., Europe & Japan disc printers market was valued at US$ 929.6 Mn in 2015, and is expected to [register a declining CAGR](https://www.financedigest.com/fmi-finds-the-market-is-fuelled-by-rising-internet-usage-and-explosion-of-digital-payments-india-online-grocery-market-is-to-register-a-32-7-of-cagr-through-2032.html "FMI Finds, The Market is Fuelled by Rising Internet Usage and Explosion of Digital Payments; India Online Grocery Market is to Register a 32.7% of CAGR Through 2032") of -3.0% from 2016 to 2026. Increasing demand for online media content, continuous adoption of cloud-based storage services and other media storage devices, high raw material cost and technological innovation with efficient [alternatives for accessing data](https://www.financedigest.com/investing-in-the-future-with-alternative-web-data.html "Investing in the future with alternative web data") are the major factors affecting the growth of the [disc](https://www.financedigest.com/the-cervical-total-disc-replacement-market-to-grow-based-on-customized-digitization.html) printers market in U.S., Europe & Japan. Disc printing is the process of printing text, data or images on the surface of the optical disc. Two different approaches for printing CD-R on-demand are – [**Thermal disc printing and Inkjet disc printing**](https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/press-release/thermal-inkjet-disc-printers-market). A thermal disc printer employs pressure and heat to apply text and graphics to the disc surface. The print surface of thermal printed discs is more durable. Thermal [disc printing produces colour custom](https://www.financedigest.com/the-cervical-total-disc-replacement-market-to-grow-based-on-customized-digitization.html "The Cervical Total Disc Replacement Market to grow based on customized digitization") labels that are waterproof, scratchproof and do not require any additional coating. However their colour printing capability has limitations that preclude its use in cases when label has complex colour graphic content. Inkjet printers utilise a mechanism in which the print head has several tiny nozzles/jets that spray ink onto the disc, as the disc [moves past](https://www.financedigest.com/moving-past-regulation-the-future-of-open-banking.html "Moving Past Regulation: the future of open banking") the print head, forming the characters or images. Inkjet disc printers may employ a single cartridge for different colours or several cartridges, with one for each colour depending upon different models, and are priced accordingly.
