Inkjet printers use liquid ink sprayed through small printhead nozzles to produce text, graphics and photographs. They are commonly used in Kenyan homes, schools, small offices, photography businesses and organisations that require affordable colour printing.
The inkjet category includes both traditional cartridge printers and refillable ink-tank printers. Cartridge models are generally cheaper to purchase, while ink-tank printers usually provide a lower cost per page for regular printing.
When comparing inkjet printers in Kenya, check:
Traditional cartridge inkjet printers are suitable for occasional printing. They normally have a lower purchase price but may cost more per page when used frequently.
The HP DeskJet 2320 is an example of an entry-level cartridge inkjet printer. It provides printing, scanning and copying through a USB connection, making it suitable for basic home documents and school assignments.
Ink-tank printers use larger refillable reservoirs. They cost more initially but are normally better suited to students, home offices and businesses that print regularly.
Examples include:
Epson positions its EcoTank range as refillable printers designed for lower-cost, higher-volume printing with fewer cartridge replacements.
Home users and students should consider:
A cartridge printer can work for occasional forms and assignments. A refillable ink-tank printer is generally more practical where several pages are printed each week.
Businesses should look for:
A multifunction inkjet printer can replace separate printing, scanning and copying devices. However, not every model includes automatic duplex printing or an automatic document feeder.
