Office Equipment

What is the difference between an inkjet and a laser printer, and which is right for you? Are laser printers better than inkjet printers and vice versa?   

These are the questions we will answer in this blog. Because to get the ideal printer for your printing needs, you need to be well-informed about your options. 

There are clear, significant differences between inkjet and laser printers. Before purchasing either, you must know these differences. Or else risk being stuck with an ill-equipped machine.    

We’ve been a local print vendor for over 40 years and have received many inquiries over these questions, which we will answer today. 

When you think of a copier/printer brand, what’s the first name to come to mind?

Maybe it’s HP or Canon because that’s what you used in school. Maybe it’s even Ricoh because that’s what the first office you worked at used. It’s easy to recall or hear about different brand names, but the stakes are a little higher when choosing one for your office equipment. You don’t want to be left with a faulty machine that breaks easily or can’t keep up with your printing volumes.

There are many manufacturers out there that produce durable and efficient machines, capable of printing, scanning, faxing, and more. In the past 35 years, we here at Strategic Technology Partners of Texas have seen them all, whether it’s from selling or servicing them, and we know the unique benefits and advantages that come with each individual brand.

Every day, healthcare professionals handle sensitive patient information that must be securely shared while ensuring HIPAA compliance. However, traditional faxing methods leave room for security risks, inefficiencies, and compliance issues.

That’s where the Xerox Healthcare Multifunction Printer (MFP) comes in.

According to First Research, over 25,000 printer companies exist in the United States.

The industry is rampant with companies of all sizes. Still, there are only a few that dominate the area on a global scale.

Looking through all the options and picking the brand most aligned with your goals can be confusing and downright frustrating. At first glance, the only differences might be their company name and logo. 

One company's multifunction printer might be similar to another's in basic function. However, they can differ in the features, accessories, and promotional incentives they offer.

Your printer just blinked a warning: “Low Toner.” Now you’re wondering how much longer it’ll last. Will you make it through that big report, or will it fizzle out halfway through? For anyone managing office supplies, toner yield is the key to smarter printing decisions.

At Strategic Technology Partners of Texas, we’ve worked with printers for nearly 40 years. We know the value of reliable, high-quality office supplies. Understanding toner yield—the number of pages a cartridge can print before running out—is vital for balancing quality, cost, and efficiency.

In this article, you’ll learn what toner yield is, the factors affecting it, and how to maximize it for your office. With this knowledge, you’ll be able to optimize your printing and keep your budget in check.
