A laser printer uses a dry toner powder in a sealed cartridge.
You can find out what ink cartridges your dell printer uses by opening up the printer and checking to see what cartridges are already installed on the printer.

Printer cartridges are what holds the ink. You insert these into the specific place in the printer, and the printer uses the ink from inside the cartridges.
Thermal Printer
A dot matrix printer uses a print head with tiny pins that strike an ink ribbon against the paper to create characters and images. Because of this impact-based printing process, it produces a noticeable mechanical noise compared to inkjet or laser printers. Although it is slower and louder, a dot matrix printer is highly reliable for printing multi-part forms, invoices, receipts, and continuous paper, making it a popular choice in businesses that require durable and cost-effective document printing.
A band printer is a line printer that uses a metal band, or loop, of type characters as its printing mechanism.

Xerox
Usually known as an "inkjet" printer that uses blue, red and yellow ink cartridges, with some printers using an additional black ink cartridge.
It should say in the your instruction manual what type of cartridge your particular printer uses. Also I would suggest visiting the company website of the particular printer that you have.
