: Laser vs. inkjet printer for vectors and text As far as I've heard, a laser monochrome printer could deliver better sharp results compared with ink printers, when it comes to text printing.

@Gretchen549

Laser printers tend to print faster (most noticeable with high volume), and sharper text. It’s for this reason virtually all offices use laser printers.

InkJet printers however tend to be better at printing color, especially photos. One downside is that if you use highlighters to mark your printed documents, the inks will smudge a little.

They are similarly priced, it just comes down to your preference.

In my personal experience (web and logo mockups for agencies and clients), laser printers consistently outperform inkjet at the expense of increased operation cost (ink, initial cost of printer, etc.) If I could I'd go laser printers with every print job I would in a heartbeat, but the cost is a little prohibitive. :)

Inkjet will do most of what you need, but if for some reason you need extra sharpness, then laser seems to be the choice to go... It's up to you to determine if it's worth the additional cost.
