Types Of Printers

All-In-One Printers
All-In-One printers are great if you need multiple devices (like a scanner, copier, fax, and printer) but you would also like to save space. They also are much cheaper than buying each device individually.

Dot Matrix Printers
Printers that use an impact head. Can print carbon copies. Great for printing invoices and forms that require carbon copies.

Inkjet Printers
More affordable type of printer. Uses ink cartridges. Slower printing speeds than laserjet printers. Great for small business use that does not require fast printing speeds. Color inkjet printers are much less expensive than color laserjet printers. The only draw back is the speed.

Laserjet Printers
Expensive printers, but cheaper for high demand. Color laserjet printers are very expensive. Black and white laserjet printers are more affordable. Laserjet printers are much faster than inkjet printers. In the long run, the total cost of ownership averages out to be cheaper than the inkjet printers, but it has a much higher initial cost.
