What is the difference between a laser printer and an inkjet printer

With the popularity of digital technology, printers have also entered the homes of ordinary people. The printer can not only print documents but also print beautiful pictures. When buying a printer, whether you buy a laser printer or an inkjet printer must understand the difference between the two to make the right choice. Today I will share with you the difference between a laser printer and an inkjet printer.

Method / Step

The difference between imaging technology The principle of a laser printer is to use laser scanning imaging technology to make the imaging drum charged with static electricity to attract toner, and at the same time the heating roller heats the paper to melt the toner in the paper to complete the thermal imaging printing process; and inkjet The principle of the printer is to control the printing nozzle dot matrix to eject the printing ink through the digital circuit to complete the printing process. Double-sided laser printers can achieve automatic double-sided printing, while inkjet printers require manual methods to achieve double-sided printing.

The difference between printing components The common consumables for laser printers are mainly toner cartridges, while the consumables for inkjet printers are print cartridges and nozzles. High-end inkjet printers and plotters have separate cartridges and nozzles, while household and commercial inkjet printers It is a combination of ink cartridge and nozzle. Laser printer cartridges can print thousands of sheets, while inkjet printer cartridges can only print hundreds of sheets.

Difference in printing speed The printing speed of a laser printer is significantly faster than that of an inkjet printer. Of course, the inkjet printer can also choose the fast-play mode, but in this mode, the printing effect of the inkjet printer will be reduced.

Price difference Usually printers are divided into A3 and A4 format printers. In the same format, the price of inkjet printers is lower than that of laser printers. In addition, consumables are also more expensive than toner cartridges. Under normal circumstances, the price of an A4 format black laser printer can buy an A3 format color printer.

Differences in printing effects Generally, due to the different imaging technologies of laser and inkjet printers, the printing effect of laser printers is better than that of inkjet printers. Of course, if the dedicated inkjet photo printer uses photo paper to print, the effect is not good.

Applications

Inkjet printers are inexpensive and have a slow printing speed, which is more suitable for home use. Although several laser printers are slightly more expensive, they have faster printing speeds and good imaging effects, and are suitable for commercial use.

Tips: If the inkjet printer is not used for a long time, the ink cartridge will dry up and cannot be used normally, so it is recommended that household users who use inkjet printers print at least once a month to prevent the ink from drying out.

Tips:

(1) Before the new toner cartridge is put on the machine, please shake it horizontally 5-6 times to make the toner loose and evenly distributed, and then pull out the sealing strip, which is conducive to uniform printing color. Pull out the seal evenly and straightly to avoid breaking the seal.

(2) When the machine prompts "toner empty" or the print becomes faded, it means that the toner is about to run out, and it is time to replace the toner cartridge. Tip: Take out the toner cartridge and shake it left or right or pat the powder bin to print dozens of sheets.
