Let's look at the advantages and disadvantages of lasers and inkjet printers.

If you're a gamer who buys a printer, you're probably going to have to worry about a laser or an inkjet.

I've been asking you on the internet site, and I often hear the word lasers, and there will be lasers with lasers.

Because of the price issue, there will also be gamers who are inkjet.

So I'm going to buy a printer in the future, or I will write this article as it will help the gays to buy.


But first, let's look at what laser and inkjet are.


(Brother inkjet printer)


Inkjet is a method of printing ink by spraying ink as you guessed from the word 'ink'.

In simple terms, the inkjet goes roughly


A laser is not a laser,

A laser is injected to generate static electricity in the portion to be printed, and the toner powder is stuck to the portion to be printed 

In this state, it is melted and printed with high heat.


If you take the freshly picked prints from the school, you'll have to keep it hot. That's what I did with a laser printer.


So let's compare the laser and inkjet.


1. Maintenance cost: Cartridge type inkjet> Laser> Ink tank type Inkjet

Of course, this is only for the built-in infinite ink tanks nowadays, and the cartridge type is overwhelmingly cheap for lasers

Moreover, inkjet consumes a lot of ink due to the clogging of the head, which will be described later.

However, the ink tank type ink jet boasts an overwhelmingly lower maintenance cost than the laser. 

The cartridge type can print about 500 sheets in one set of four colors,

The laser type can print about 2,000 sheets of 2 toners,

The ink tank type is capable of printing about 6,000 sheets in one set of four colors, usually between 2 and 40,000 won 


2. Sharpness: Inkjet >>> Laser 

Lasers usually have a resolution of 600 dpi per color 

This is four colors, multiplied by four on the landscape, and the resolution is 2400x600 dpi. 

600dpi is the limit of domestic laser, so no more 

So what is 1200dpi or 9600dpi? I would ask

Software calibration

1200x1200dpi is 600x600dpi with software correction to 1200dpi 

The 9600x600dpi ducked the software calibration horizontally and raised the 2400 to 9600 

Inkjet, on the other hand, supports 4800x1200dpi natively even if it is cheap 


3. Size, Weight: Laser >>> Inkjet 

The laser contains a lot of heavy components such as corona generators, drums, heaters, etc. 

Inkjet is the heaviest part of the scanner flatbed?

Inkjet is overwhelmingly light and small than laser 


4. Power consumption: Laser >>> Inkjet

A laser is a unit that generates heat such as a heater, so even if the power consumption is a monochrome product, 

Power consumption is very high. If you think that a home computer usually consumes 3 ~ 500 watt, it can be said that it eats power of computer grade. 

On the other hand, the inkjet is very low in power consumption,

The Epson product standard states that the operating power is 12w. 


5. Health: Inkjet >>> Laser 

Eh? What health is in the printer? I can say that the laser has health problems. 

Inkjet is not a big problem unless you eat or touch the ink, and if it is buried, you can end it at the level of washing, but it is not.

As explained above, the laser melts the toner powder and prints it out. This toner powder size is very small

Of course, manufacturers are also making a lot of efforts to minimize toner spillage, but there are limits to the nature of print paper

Most of all, the toner powder size is PM 7 

And the most important thing is ozone.

A tool called Corona Discharge, which is required for printing on laser printers, produces ozone 

This is also trying to prevent spills, but of course there are limits ...

So ventilation is essential when you are printing with laser.

Your laser manual should also tell you to vent.


6. Printing Speed: Laser >>>>>>>>>>>>> Inkjet 

Inkjet is a method of printing ink on paper one by one with a head, so printing speed is slow

The laser is very fast because it takes a very short time to scan with laser -> attach toner -> to heating


7. Maintenance: Laser >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Inkjet

If the inkjet does not print for a long time, the ink becomes hardened and the head is clogged, resulting in a loss of printed matter

(Typical head clogging phenomenon)

Of course, turning the head cleaning off causes symptoms to disappear, but cleaning the heads consumes a lot of ink, which is very wasteful in the case of cartridges.

On the other hand, the laser does not use for a year, but there is little change in print quality

If the toner is deformed or the toner is replaced, the print quality returns to the original.


8. Printing paper universal: Inkjet >>>>>>>>>> Laser 

Inkjet is literally printable wherever the printer eats and the ink enters.

For example, printing on a CD is only possible with inkjet.

(Inkjet with tray for CD printing) 

On the other hand, laser can not print any bands because it covers the printing paper somewhat.




Here are the advantages and disadvantages of the inkjet and laser I have listed 


No, what the hell is going on? There might be some gay guys.


It's hard to say just because there are so many different uses for each person.


I often take pictures? Inkjet

Do you use printers often? Inkjet 

So what if the picture is the main purpose, but not often? When you do that again

I can not give up clarity! In the case of inkjet, I will save some clarity! If you are a laser 

It is disjointed according to individual taste. 


Therefore, I can not tell you only to understand the print pattern of my compilation and to buy it according to it.
