Inkjet printing is a type of computer printing that recreates a digital image by propelling droplets of ink onto paper and plastic substrates. [1] Inkjet printers were the most commonly used type of printer in 2008, [2] [needs update] and range from small inexpensive consumer models to expensive professional machines.
In computing, a printer is a peripheral machine which makes a durable representation of graphics or text, usually on paper. [1] While most output is human-readable, bar code printers are an example of an expanded use for printers. [2] Different types of printers include 3D printers, inkjet printers, laser printers, and thermal printers. [3]
The HP DeskJet 520 introduced resolution enhancement technology, or REt, to HP inkjet printers. It was also HP's last black-and-white-only inkjet printer. The HP DeskJet 500, 510, 520, 500C, 550C, and 560C were all replaced by the HP DeskJet 540 (3 ppm B&W, 1.5 minutes per page color). A one-pen inkjet printer, color was optional.
Supertank printers are a type of continuous ink system (CISS) inkjet printer.Supertank printers differ from traditional inkjet printers in that the printhead is connected via a tube system that draws ink from large ink tanks built into the printer, which are filled and refilled via ink bottles, eliminating the need for ink cartridges.
The print engine of most All-in-one devices is based either on a home desktop inkjet printer, or on a home desktop laser printer. They may be black-and-white or colour capable. Laser models provide a better result for text while inkjet gives a more convincing result for images and they are a cheaper multifunctional. [3]
An ink cartridge or inkjet cartridge is a component of an inkjet printer that contains ink to be deposited onto paper during printing. [1] It consists of one or more ink reservoirs and can include electronic contacts and a chip to exchange information with the printer.

Powder bed and inkjet 3D printers typically range in price from $50,000 to $2,000,000 [citation needed]. However, there is a hobbyist DIY kit selling from $800 to convert a consumer FDM printer to powder/inkjet printer.
