When it comes to laser printers, there are so many to choose from. There are the lower priced black and white models to full color versions. There are so many variations in between it can be difficult to choose but the best place to start is by deciding what exactly will be required of it.

It's important to know what makes lasers a viable proposition in the first place. When it comes to printing images, inkjet printers are far superior, less bulky for fitting in a home environment, cheaper to buy and therefore preferred by most home users. Nevertheless, there are situations where lasers may equal or even surpass inkjets in all those areas.

Capacity and speed may be top priorities for those attempting to produce documents on a regular basis for customers or colleagues. There are many businesses and clubs being run out of homes and if the quantity of printing required is too much for an inkjet to handle but not enough to make outsourcing viable, in-house laser printing may be the most cost-effective and efficient option.

Although lasers, even the color versions, do not reproduce images to the photographic quality of inkjets, the quality is still good enough not to be an issue for most purposes. When it comes to printing text and flat graphics like logos and graphs they are just as good. Some models are even considered by some to be better than their inkjet counterparts.

At one time black and white print was sufficient for most purposes, but these days people have got used to seeing everything produced in color and have come to expect it. Color lasers can be very expensive, even though they've come down considerably in price over the years as technology has advanced. However, there are some situations where going the route of the color option can actually save the user a lot of money.

Sometimes there is just no way around the problem and the user must have multiple copies of a document that requires color images. Printing them on an inkjet would be too slow and cost too much. This is a a typical example where good quality color lasers work out as better investments. They may not produce images to the quality of inkjets but they will still be quite good.

The choice between lasers and inkjets is mainly based on volume and regularity. If that's what's needed, then laser is the better option. The decision whether to opt for color over monochrome depends on how much text there is compared to images and the type of images to be used. If the documents mainly consist of text and a few standard pictures, monochrome printing may suffice. If important diagrams are required that would be difficult to understand in monochrome, color would be preferable.

When the ideal solution seems to purchase a color model but the cost is out of reach, there is another option. That is to ensure that the newsletter or report is designed especially to look good in monochrome. Tints of black can be successfully used in graphs and images requiring definition. It may be necessary to think a bit more about the design of the images and also find out the specifications for using a logo in black and white, but any document can look good in monochrome. If designed correctly, the output will look good an all laser printers.
