Color Printers in IT Glossary

Laser and solid ink printers will print faster than an inkjet
and you can print double-sided documents without the ink showing
through the paper as it often will with ink-jets. If you expect
to print documents, manuals or business cards and brochures in
larger quantities you really don't want to do this on an inkjet.
For a business looking to print a larger quantity of color documents,
including manuals or brochures then you're going to want to look at
laser printers, and if you need to print color, at a faster rate on
a variety of media types, then a solid ink printer may be worth
further investigation.
