BEFORE GOING TO INVEST IN NEW PRINTER
In printers normally there are 3 types Laser, ink-jet and
dot matrix.
Dot-matrix is old day printer very rarely used in banks and
couriers billing offices.
So the two options left with you is Laser Jet Printer or
Ink-Jet Printer.
Which printer offers you the best service?
The rapid and highly accurate laser printer or slow-moving
but superior-at-colors inkjet?
A peek at the laser vs. inkjet comparability description
will help you to decide.
First thing inkjet printers starting range is very less by
cost as compared to laser printer.
In ink-jet printer you get both black/white and color
printouts.But in laser printer you only get black/white prints.
For getting color print outs you need to buy color laser
jet,but cost of color laser-jet is too much as compared to ink-jet printers.
Now-a-days printer is significantly required for any
personal or business firm. Used for urgently printing documents to color
photos, printer technologies have progressed to offer multiple purposes. Both
Laser and Inkjet are preferred by the buyer and have widespread apps today.
Both designed separately and have progressed to offer various specifications
and useful functions.
When choosing which one is better then other, it gets very
difficult.
There is no trick in choosing which is better. The only
option is to know what your actual requirement is and decide on a printing
solution that suits your demands.
Other thing that stops you of buying you a required printer
is financial issue. You like some printer and the cost is much more then your
budget.
But there are vast numbers of options to select from, so you
never get stuck up.
Every printer manufacturing company is making its best
possible product and providing best possible offer to attract the printer
buying client.
Below i will mention the Pros and cons of both Laser and
inkjet printer.
Dealing with repairs of all brands on printers in both laser
and ink-jets for years, i personally got vast knowledge in its working and
other issues.
Due to its low cost and benefit of getting both black-white
and color printouts inkjet printer is very much preferred by the buyer.
In the same way due to its sharpness in printing and quick
printing speed laser printers are also very much liked by the buyers.
As per my experience both technologies are outstanding
options in particular requirement.
These days everybody needs fast and quick service, no body
likes to wait and waste there time so when it comes to quality printing in huge
quantities of prints, Laser is a very good deal. Now in the same way, folks are
worried due to recession and earning daily income is getting very difficult. So
to invest in a costly laser printer gets difficult. So buyer prefers going for
ink-jet printer, because it solves there printing issue as well as its not that
costly as compared to laser printer. But mostly inkjet is preferred by people
who are mainly focused on photo printing. But the offices and company firms,
where color prints and photo prints are hardly required they prefer Normal
black and white Mono Laser printers.
The head-to-head comparison between laser and inkjet printers
shown here: --------
First we will go through Ink-jet Printer details:
BENEFITS OF INK-JET PRINTER:
1) It has Good Photo print quality results.
2) Its affordable to every buyer.
3) It has possibility of printing both color and black-white
prints.
4) Its compact and less heavy. (Not all models, but most are
easy to carry).
5) Refilling cost is less for ink-jet cartridges.
PROBLEMS FACED ON INK-JET PRINTER:
1) The text printing quality is not very good on most of
inkjet printers, when you compare the text print with laser prints.
2) The ink-jet print out gets smudges on low quality paper.
3) The ink cartridges get dried up, if not used for few
days.
4) Some low cost ink-jet printers are very delicate. To
maintain the cost, the companies use very low quality material parts. So it doesn’t
last long.
5) It cannot be used at one stretch, when it comes to loads
of printing volumes.
6) Ink-jet printers are very noisy while printing and it
makes too much noise while starting alignment period.
Now let’s go with Laser Printer details:
BENEFITS OF USING LASER PRINTER:
1) It prints with great speed. Client gets attracted by its
quick printing rate.
2) Its text printing is very sharp, there is no smudge
noticed in laser prints as compared to ink-jet prints.
3) It saves on per page printing cost, when it comes to
large printing volumes.
4) It saves time.
5) Laser printers are very quite and silent while printing.
6) Now a days compatible cartridges are available, so these
saves lot for the buyer as compared to new laser cartridges.( Either buy
genuine original cartridges ,and if you go for compatible cartridges then, its
suggested to buy compatible cartridges from branded and reputable companies,
few to be named are cartridge world, Printronics, etc).
PROBLEMS WITH LASER PRINTER:
1) Laser printers are quite expensive as compared to inkjet.
2) If you opt for color laser printer then cost is too much.
3) The color quality for low costly laser printers is very
poor as compared to ink-jet printer.
4) On regular laser printer you only get benefit of
black-white copies and no color copies can be printer, on ink -jet printer you
get benefit of both.
5) Laser printers are very heavy.
6) Repairing cost is very high on laser printer failure.
7) It requires specific type of paper for printing. Suppose
if you use sticker paper on normal laser printer then sticker paper will get
stuck up in the roller and printer needs to be repaired, on inkjet printer
there is so such problems.
8) The cost of new laser cartridges is very costly.
9) Refilling toner is good, but if its not refilled properly,
then toner power leaks and these creates lots of problem in laser printers.
10) Laser printer depends on heat for printing. Inside the
printer there is fuser assembly. On some printer models the fuser assembly warm
up time is too much and these sometimes frustrates the user. Also if fuser
assembly gets weak, it effects the print quality.
These are detailed description for both kinds of printer.
Both are good for printing.
Its upon you to choose the printer.
You can go with laser printer, if you have lots of printing
job and mostly in black-white.
You can go with ink-jet printer if you need color prints and
photos including black-white printing and all in low costs. But yes it will
take time to print, that you will have to bear with.
