Types of printers and their examples?

Answer 1

There are four main types.

Thermal - Like the old fax machines, uses a waxy paper heated to put an image on paper. Some portable printers use this.

Inkjet - Uses liquid ink put through little nozzles that are heated up and force the ink out onto the paper. Most popularLaser - Uses a laser beam on a photo sensitive film to attract toner (fine powder, no liquid here) and then puts the toner on the paper. Then the paper goes through a fusor to fuse the toner to the paper.Solid ink - Xerox only, uses wax based crayons to put an image on paper.
