handed out like candy with new pc purchases and it's never been easier to afford something that will inexplicably stop working at 2: a.m. the night before your turn paper is due so how exactly do printers work and what makes them well some of them so unreliable now you probably already know that the two main types of printers for Home and Office use are inkjet and Laser unless of course you've still got one of those old dot matrix printers from the 80s cuz you get a kick out of tearing off those little strips on the edge of the paper and both of them have advantages and disadvantages which we actually briefly covered in this video but let's have a look at them in a little bit more depth first up we've got laser printers which use you guessed it a freaking laser beam to create prints Laser Printers also contain a rotating cylinder coated with a photosensitive electrically charged material and a series of mirrors when you send a document to a laser printer the laser light is reflected by the mirrors onto the cylinder which neutralizes the electrical charge in specific areas thanks to the rotation of both the cylinder and the the mirrors as well as the laser turning on and off at precisely the correct moments the areas hit by the laser correspond to the actual print and when toner particles hit the cylinder they only stick to the areas exposed to the laser light because the toner itself has an electrical charge too cool right then a sheet of paper is pressed against the cylinder and the toner is transferred through to the paper using heat which fuses the T owner to it which is why Pages fresh out of a laser printer are always so nice and cuddly warm due to the Precision of the laser these kinds of printers are great for producing crisp clear text the other major player the inkjet printer is very very different like the name says this sort of printer uses Liquid Ink instead of solid toner particles in consumer models ink inside of those expensive cartridges is heated with an electric charge causing a small amount to vaporize and form a bubble on the nozzle the bubble then collapses and the pressure difference pulls a droplet of ink out of the cartridge and

photos making them the go-to choice if you like to print your own snapshots at at home unfortunately though many inkjet owners have been disappointed by their printer's reliability so then why is it that they seem to give people such a hard time well part of it is because printers have so many small moving parts that can break or wear out not to mention the small nozzles that can clog easily but perhaps a bigger part of the reason is the business model of inkjet manufacturers the printers themselves are frequently sold at a loss so ink refills can cost more than the actual printers themselves also many cartridges contain smart chips that report that they're empty even if there is still leftover ink but fortunately there are workarounds for this you can find online and we're even starting to see Alternatives appear on the market such as epson's new system that uses permanent high-capacity ink tanks instead of pricey cartridges which will hopefully usher in the day when we no longer
