When choosing to buy a printer you need to ask yourself 'will I need color?' or 'will I in general print black and white?'. If you do not need colour the most cost sufficient printer is a laser printer. There are also colour laser printers but the exchange toner cartridges are still very costly (a set of 3 colours and 1 black cartridge) may cost more than the traditional cost of the printer.
A black toner cartridge for a mono laser printer will only cost colse to 2-3 cents per copy while an inkjet printer will cost colse to 10 cents a copy. So it may be that if you only do a few colour prints occasionally you could have a laser printer (priced from colse to 0) and a low cost inkjet printer (priced colse to ) which may even contain a scanner so you can do coloured photocopies too.
Inkjet Wireless Printer
Printers are available as just a standalone printer or as a multifunction device which has a scanner and can transmit faxes, do photocopying, do printing in black and white or colour and also scan a document or photo into computer memory. This is very suitable for the home office (Soho) where space is ordinarily wee and it can deal with all the usual office functions.
If there are some computers in the office you may need a network printer. It is probably cheaper to buy a high speed network printer than to buy private printers for each computer.
Network Printers are now available with wireless quality so other computers can associate to it wirelessly. A wireless receiver card just needs to be fitted to each computer.
Toner Cartridges may look costly but a 0 cartridge will ordinarily do colse to 2-3000 copies (approx. 3-5 cents a copy)
With ink cartridges they only do colse to 200 copies (there are some Xl models now which can do duplicate this amount) for colse to (approx. 25 cents a copy.)
