Most consumer inkjet printers, from companies including Canon, Hewlett-Packard, and Lexmark (but not Epson), use print cartridges with a series of tiny chambers each containing a heater, all of which are constructed by photolithography. To eject a droplet from each chamber, a pulse of current is passed through the heating element causing a rapid vaporisation of the ink in the chamber to form a bubble, which causes a large pressure increase, propelling a droplet of ink onto the paper (hence Canon's tradename of Bubble Jet for its technology). The ink's surface tension, as well as the condensation and thus contraction of the vapor bubble, pulls a further charge of ink into the chamber through a narrow channel attached to an ink reservoir.

Laserjet printers employ a xerographic printing process (i.e. electrical transfer of an image's negative) but differ from analog photocopiers in that the image is produced by the direct scanning of a laser beam across the printer's photoreceptor. In total, there are six steps to the printing process: cleaning, charging, writing (or exposing), developing, transferring, and fusing.

What does 'print to file' mean?

From MS Word Help, which you probably could have looked up yourself: If you want to print your document at a much higher resolution than what's available on your desktop printer, you can select a different printer in the Print dialog box, format your document, print your document to a file, and take the file to a computer connected to the printer you selected, such as a service bureau. A printer file saves the necessary information from your document so that line and page breaks and font spacing remain the same. Any printer that uses the same printer language (for example, PostScript) can print the file and match the output from your computer, provided that the fonts used in the document are available on the printer. Also, when you use a printer file, you can print your document from a computer that doesn't have Word installed.
