Laser printers have become more capable, faster and more economical with each passing year. An early model that set the bar was the HP 4 L. This printer produced 300 dpi output at four pages per minute and sold for about $600 in the early and mid-1990s. Today is possible to buy a similar laser printer that is faster and provides much sharper output for less money than the price of the toner laser cartridges of that venerable HP printer.

What retail stores sell laser printer cartridges at a low price?

If you have an HP laser printer, I suggest you buy it directly from HP online store. I find it cheaper to get laser printer cartridges from them for my HP laser printer.

What is a comparsion between a laser printer and a ink jet printer?

A laser printer and an inkjet printer differ mainly in how they print, what they print best, and long-term costs: Laser Printer Uses toner powder and a laser to fuse text/images onto paper. Better for sharp text, business documents, and high-volume printing. Usually faster and more cost-efficient per page. Higher upfront cost but lower running cost. Black-and-white models are especially economical. Inkjet Printer Uses liquid ink sprayed through tiny nozzles. Best for color prints, photos, and detailed images. Slower than lasers for heavy print jobs. Lower upfront cost but higher ink cost over time. Good for home use, crafts, and photo printing.
