Advantages of Black and White Printers

More and more, printers, like all other gadgets and peripherals, offer more options, more quality, and less simplicity. Simple, inexpensive, fast black and white printers still have a place in the fast-paced technology environment today.

While color printers are more affordable now than they used to be, they also require more maintenance (buying more ink for a start) and sometimes it isn’t necessary. While color can be a nice luxury, or in some cases a necessity, before you buy, consider getting a utilitarian, monochrome laser printer that only has an output of black and white.

These laser printers are very quiet, and it might be easier than you think to learn to live without the bells and whistles. Your C.V. is probably best printed in black and white, after all, and directions don’t need colored headings either. Small workgroups should consider a black and white printer as an affordable option, and larger offices that need two printers can have one color and one black and white.

For example, the Brother HL-5340D is available for under $200. It’s fast and business-like, delivering quality prints and reliable paper handling. However, you can’t network it, so consider another monochrome for the office.
