66The Court of Justice held in its judgments concerning antidumping duties imposed on plain paper copiers originating in Japan (see, for example, Case C-171/87 Canon v Council [1992] ECR 1237, paragraphs 47, 48 and 52; Ricoh, cited above, paragraphs 35, 36 and 40; and Sharp Corporation, cited above, paragraphs 25, 26 and 30) that the Community institutions did not make an error of assessment by considering, with a view to determining the injury suffered by the Community industry, that ‘Community production of the like product’ meant production of all photocopiers, in all segments merged together, excluding machines not produced in the Community, since according to the market surveys on which the institutions had relied, there was no clear delimitation in the segment classification of photocopiers inasmuch as, on the one hand, some photocopiers could be classed in several different segments in view of certain of their characteristics and technical features and, on the other, there was competition both between machines in adjoining segments and between those classified in non-adjoining segments.
