Printers

  1. A printer is a device, which on receiving the signal from computer transfers the information to paper.
  2. There are two types of colour printer - laser and inkjet. Currently a top of the range inkjet printer is capable of out putting about 1.5 pages per minute at a quality of 1200 by 600 dpi and a similar priced colour laser can output four pages per minute at a quality of 600 by 600 dpi.
  3. The new inkjet and colour laser printers allow us to change each of the colour CMYK cartridges (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) separately.
  4. Currently colour laser printers have a lower cost per page than an equivalent inkjet printer.
