Mopria Alliance celebrates milestone

November 3, 2023

The Mopria Alliance, a global non-profit membership organisation providing universal print and scan standards, celebrates a decade of significant innovation and industry transformation.

Today, there are more than 8,000 Mopria certified product models that offer print and/or scan capabilities, with 120 million certified products in active daily use. Mopria achieved 3 billion installations on both computers and mobile devices using the world’s most popular operating systems. This journey is underscored by billions of pages printed or scanned daily.

Notably, the recent decision by Microsoft in August 2023 to discontinue support of third-party printer drivers in Windows 11 and rely upon Mopria standards represents a monumental shift in the industry, underscoring the Alliance’s impact.

Mopria Alliance has played an instrumental role in shaping the mobile printing and scanning landscape since its inception in 2013 when founding members Canon, HP, Samsung, and Xerox united to create standards that made printing universally compatible across all mobile devices and printers. The Alliance has since welcomed 18 additional members representing an overwhelming majority of companies in the global printer and scanner industry.

Stepping into a new decade of innovation, the Mopria Alliance said it envisions a future marked by extraordinary breakthroughs and enhanced accessibility. Michael St. Laurent, President of the Mopria Alliance, expressed the Alliance’s vision for the future, stating, “Mopria Alliance is the industry authority for printer and scanning innovation, and we extend an open invitation to all industry participants to join our collective effort. The past decade has been a testament to our commitment to simplifying and revolutionising mobile printing and scanning. We envision a future where universal standards, simplicity, and accessibility are realities for everyone.”

The Alliance recognised Alan Berkema, Hiro Masuda, Shusaku Kusaka, and Harvey Shimizu as Mopria Alliance Fellows in recognition of their significant leadership and contributions to the Alliance. St. Laurent added, “These individuals took actions in their own unique ways to establish the Alliance into the leading organisation that it is today. We are forever grateful for their many contributions and happily induct them into our Fellows programme.”
