Laser printers
Best for text documents and higher volumes. They're fast, the toner doesn't dry out, and the cost per page is low, especially in black and white.
- Black & white laser printers
- Laser all-in-ones (print, scan, copy, often fax)
Inkjet printers
Best for color and photos, and for people who print occasionally. Cartridges cost less up front, but the cost per page is usually higher than laser.
Ink tank printers (EcoTank, MegaTank, Smart Tank)
Inkjets refilled from bottles. They cost more to buy but have a very low cost per page, a good choice for home offices that print a lot in color.
