Modern Generation Printers Offer Photo Realistic Quality Printing
Gone are the days when you needed to take your camera to the processing studio to get photos printed. Thanks to advancements in science and print technology, you now have the ability to print photo-realistic quality images right in your home or in your office using the state of the art modern generation inkjet and laser printers. It would be a crime not to mention digital printing presses too, as they offer print quality better than that provided by inkjets and lasers. With so many printer manufacturers offering different models of printers, it can become tough for the public to determine which brand and model is most suitable for them. Some of the popular brands of inkjet and laser printers include Canon, Kyocera, Brother, Hewlett Packard, Xerox, and Epson. All of them manufacture excellent quality printers. However, it is up to you to decide which model to choose. If you want to print pictures regularly and want the best output, it is best to visit a physical store that sells printers and request the staff to paint the same image on different brands of printers.

Laser or inkjet: which one is better
Remember, laser printers provide better quality prints than inkjets even though both of them use the same 1,200 dots per inch technology. It is because the ink of inkjet printers tends to run when water is applied to them. This is not an issue with laser printers. To get the best quality output, always take the printouts on photo quality paper. Once you have compared the different images (it is a guarantee that you will face a tough time determining the winner), purchase the printer whose output you believe is the best. It is best to leave the decision-making job to the staff of the store. They have a good idea about the products they are selling and know which printer is perfect for which job. Do not check the speed of the printer, as you are looking for high-quality pictures. You need a near-dedicated photo printer. Do not forget that these printers are also capable of printing standard business documents. However, considering the price you have to pay for the Porche of printers, it would be a sheer waste of money to use it for printing documents.
Check and recheck what else is included with the printer
Check the accessories that ship with the printer. Check if the printer can accept thick photo paper. Confirm if the printer has two different paper inlets: one for printing on standard paper that has a lower thickness (measured in GSM or grams per square meter), and a straight path for printing on thick photo quality papers. Most modern generation printers come with photo editing software. Therefore, you should keep an eye open for this too while going through the accessories. Calculating the cost per picture for snapshot-style printers is simple to calculate and most printer manufacturers sell print packs with sufficient ink and paper to a specified number of photos.
