Inkjet or Laser Printer – Which is the Best For You?
Almost as universal as the dilemma of whether to buy a house or rent, and with an equal number of factors for and against each decision, is the decision between buying an inkjet and laser printer! Each type of printer has its own ups, its own downs, its varying capital and ongoing costs for ink cartridges, laser toner, etc. However, they are not the same by any measure … there is certainly a ‘best’ type of printer for you, according to your printing habits. We help you find it!
How much printing do you do?
One of the simplest ways to understand the difference between inkjet and laser printers is in terms of initial cost versus ongoing cost … though remember that there are plenty more things to consider before you’ll be able to properly determine which one will be ‘best’ for you in the long run. Laser printers have a high ongoing cost and a lower cost-per-page – laser toner goes further per page. Inkjet printers have a lower initial cost and a higher cost per page – inkjet cartridges don’t print as many pages before emptying. Obviously, if you do a lot of printing, the laser printer will quickly repay your initial investment in terms of lower per-page pricing.

Top 10 Tips for Making an Ink Cartridge Last Longer
When it comes to purchasing a printer, the price represents only a portion of the cost. You must consider the price you originally pay for the printer itself as well as the expense of buying ink cartridges every time the printer’s ink runs out. If you own a business that requires a lot of printing or if you print a lot of photos, ink cartridges may frequently need to be replaced. These extra costs can add up in a hurry, but luckily there are ways you can save money by making your ink cartridges last just a little longer.
1. Print only what you absolutely need
Before you start printing any particular portion of text or graphics, decide its relevance and usefulness so that you do not unnecessarily spend time in printing things that may not be of much use. In short, you should print only those things that you may actually need to save consumption of considerable amounts of ink.
