What Everybody Should Know about an Inkjet Printer: The One-Year Cost of Printing
You can purchase an inkjet printer for as little as $39. With a rebate, it may even be less. Not many people would argue about the good deal they got when they purchased their printer. However, the purchase price of an inkjet printer really doesn't tell you much about your cost of printing. After all, you do need paper and inkjet cartridges to keep your printer printing.
If you go to a local car lot and look at the sticker price of a car, you'd see some of the following items: the base price of the car, the cost for each additional feature or package, the number of miles per gallon for both city and road, and the cost of gasoline for one year under normal driving conditions.What if you got this same type of information for your printer?

Inkjet printer technology
Inkjet printer technology was developed by some of the biggest names in the business in the late 70's. There were actually two technologies developed, one based on heat and the other based on an electric current applied to a crystal. Both methods are used to force the ink out of the ink cartridge on to the paper.Printers that use heat to acheive this are called thermal printers. These are very popular. Most home inkjet printers are thermal printers.
The heat causes the ink in the ink cartridge nozzle to bubble and then burst, spraying the ink on to the printer paper. The other technology uses a crystal, often a piezo crystal, that changes shape with the application of electricity. The change of shape causes the ink to be placed on to the paper. This process does not heat the ink. This technology is used by one of the biggest printer brands in the business.Both processes have their strong points and generally produce excellent results..
