A Laser printer is a common type of computer printer that speedily produces high quality text and graphics on plain paper. These printers have many significant advantages over other types of printers. This type of printer uses a laser beam to print graphics of ultimate quality. The process by which it is done is by firstly, producing the graphic or text on a photosensitive drum using a laser beam, after that, the graphic or text is transferred onto paper with the help of a usual printing process. Quality, cost effectiveness and speed are some of the notable advantages of laser printers. This is due to the fact that the laser moves quite fast and prints with a better speed than an ink jet. Since, a laser travels in a single line, which is more precise, thereby avoids spilling of ink.
