A Quick Comparison of an Inkjet Printer vs Laser Printer

We use the word "generally" as there are exceptions to the rules.

Inkjets printers are generally less expensive to buy than laser printers, especially when it comes to printing colour.

Inkjets printers are generally more expensive to run than laser printers and inkjet paper is more expensive than laser or copier paper. If laser paper is used in an inkjet printer images have a possibility of appearing blurry due to absorption into the paper. Laser images do not have this risk, because the toner is fused with heat into the fibres of the paper.

Inkjet printers are a better choice for printing labels as they do not have the heat process that laser printers have. The glue on the labels melt in laser printers making the labels more likely to come off when refed in a laser printer.

Laser printers are generally faster than an inkjet printer especially if there is a lot of detail on the page being printed.

Laser printers can handle higher volumes so are better in a workgroup situation.
Inkjet printers can block up due to the ink drying out where laser printers can stand dormant for long periods with little effect.

Even though laser printers generally have a lower cost per page if you are not printing a high enough volume the laser printer can be a more expensive option.
