21 Warning Signs You Need More Information On Cartridges

By Donald Anand


When you are deciding on a printer that you would like to buy, you will need to consider whether you want to use ink cartridges or toner cartridges. One must notice that the main differences between the two versions of printer cartridge deal with their usage and their price. Before going any further at all, you should be aware that toner cartridges go in laser printers, and inkjet printers are the type to use ink cartridges. When looking at cost, you will see that a laser printer will cost more than an inkjet printer, but they are also designed to handle greater print loads.

People all over the world are typically familiar with the use of ink cartridges, since inkjet printers are a very common feature in most homes. When you have created a print document for your inkjet printer to handle, you'll notice that the liquid in (which is contained in the ink cartridges), gets applied to your paper.

When you visit a large office, however, you'll probably notice that they generally have large laser printers with toner cartridges. Toner cartridges are full of toner, which is a very fine powder that gets sprayed out of a nozzle when you select a document that you would like to be printed. The reason that large corporations and printing offices choose to use laser printers over inkjet printers can be seen if you run a speed comparison between the two kinds of printers; laser printers are simply much faster. While the speeds of different laser printer styles will vary, almost every laser printer you find will be significantly faster than an inkjet printer.

When you are comparing up front costs, you'll see that ink cartridges are generally less expensive than toner cartridges. However, you should know that ink cartridges generally can print fewer documents before running out. Ink cartridges also are at risk of drying out before you can use them all the way up -- a problem unknown to those who use toner cartridges. Ink cartridges frequently get thrown out by users before they've been used to capacity due to their drying out before they can be used.

You will ultimately need to do a bit of thinking about how you plan on using your printer before you choose whether to go with a laser printer and toner cartridge or an inkjet printer and ink cartridge. While the two types of cartridge have significant difference, it is impossible to say which one is better until you know what your various printing needs are.

Looking at your printing trends is the best way to figure out whether to use ink or toner.
