This thermal inkjet printer is a type of printer that uses thermal technology to produce images. It works by heating tiny droplets of ink and then expelling them onto paper to create an image. These printers are known for their speed, reliability, and low cost. They are commonly used for printing labels, receipts, and other small documents.
Features
:- Printing Quality : While standard inks are less expensive than pigment-based inks, they fade more quickly. For archival prints, pigment inks are the best choice because of their longer lifespan. Specific inks are available for photo printing and water-resistant document creation on certain models. Print speed is expressed in pages per minute (ppm) and varies based on the type of printer and document complexity. Models with faster speeds work well for large-scale printing.
- Connectivity : The majority of thermal inkjet printers allow direct computer connection via USB. With the Wi-Fi connectivity found in many models, printing from laptops, tablets, and smartphones is possible without the need for wires. A local network can share a printer among several users if it supports network connections.
Usage
