Laser vs. Inkjet Printers: What’s the Difference

Are you tired of outdated, inefficient printers in your office? Are you looking for ways to cut costs on paper, ink, and unnecessary printing? As you search for the best printer for your business needs, you may come across inkjet and laser printers, each offering its own set of benefits.

While choosing between the two can be daunting, understanding the differences can help you make an informed decision. As your friend in the industry, we're here to share our expertise on either option, so you can decide which type of printer is right for your office. With Allied Business Solutions, you can trust we'll help you save money, supplies, and control over your current printing concerns.

What's The Difference Between Inkjet and Laser Printers?

Inkjet printers use pigmented liquid ink, which is directed into the print head, then sprayed onto the page through tiny nozzles. On the other hand, laser printers read electronic data from your computer and beam it onto a drum inside the printer. This creates a static electricity pattern, attracting a dry powder called toner onto the paper. The toner is then fused onto the page using heated rollers.

Which Printer Is Best for My In-Office Printing Needs?

As you search for the perfect type of printer for your office (laser vs. inkjet), consider your specific needs and the kind of printing most often required.

Examine the following benefits/issues with current printing:

  • cost of operation
  • energy consumption
  • print quality
Print Savings Estimator

Compared to one another, inkjet printers are the best-performing option if you are concerned about the cost of operation (especially with color vs. mono-color prints) and decreasing energy consumption. But, if your main goal is to have higher-quality prints, laser printers are what you need.

For Example

If your business primarily prints reports, either occasionally or frequently, you will benefit from an inkjet printer's consistent and clear results.

But, if your company instead prints a large volume of materials, like a seasonal magazine or pamphlets, and you need them to look immaculate, the laser printer is the right equipment for the job.
