In inkjet printers, the link in the cartridge is in liquid form.
Ink in laser printers is in the form of toner (powder).
Laser printers offer better printing quality than inkjet printers.
Earlier we used to go out to print anything, but as the demand increased many people bought it. Nowadays, most of the printing work is done by school children. Because of this it becomes expensive to print from outside again and again. There are two types of printers in the market – one is the inkjet printer, and the other is the laser printer. Let’s first understand how these two work.
First of all, inkjet printers are slightly cheaper than laser printers. Inkjet printers have a nozzle from which ink is sprayed onto the paper. Where the laser nozzle is not provided. Inkjet printer cartridges contain links in liquid form that dry up after long periods of disuse. On the other hand, the ink in laser printers is in the form of toner (powder), which does not dry out even if it is not used for a long time.
Now the question is, if the printer is installed at home, how much does it cost to clean it, and can it be cleaned at home? Whether it is an inkjet printer or a laser printer, if you take care of its cleanliness, it will print for a long time.
When does cleaning need to be done?
You don’t have to wait until streaks or spots start to form on your pages to clean the printer.
To clean your printer, you will need rubbing alcohol, a cotton swab, a vacuum cleaner, and a clean cloth.
If you notice smudges or spots on the paper, clean the platen or roller to remove the ink. Then use a vacuum cleaner to remove any remaining ink and dust particles from the printer.
And if you need to change the ink cartridge, you can buy new ink cartridges from the market or online according to the company’s model.
