The technologies used in printing include Inkjet, Laser, Dot Matrix and Thermal. InkJets are the most popular for home use and are generally less expensive. Laser is faster and renders a higher image quality. Dot Matrix and Thermal are usually designed for specific business and small business uses.
Some printers print in color as well as black and white, while others only print in black and white.
How many pages a machine generally prints or copies per month. The recommended volume can help determine whether a printer or copier is best for use at home, or in a small, medium, or large office.
