Best Printers For Classrooms

Nov 21, 2022

Printers can be an essential tool within classrooms and in the wider education sector in general.

In this blog we will be exploring the best printers to be deployed in classrooms and why their benefits relate to aiding teachers and learning.

Why Are Printers Still Valuable In Classrooms?

Even in the increasingly digitised modern world, there is still a requirement for information contained on paper, especially in the education sector.

A quality printing system allows teachers or learning supervisors to quickly and efficiently produce physical copies of important documents and learning tools for dispersal among their students, at just the push of a button.

Most Printers provide a crisper, sharper image even compared to some of the latest visual technologies, making reading based tasks easier and more inclusive for all students.

Printers can also be used for other essential tasks such as photocopying or scanning, the flexibility of available service makes them a must for any learning environment.

Types Of Printers

Inkjet Printers

This type of printer uses ink (hence the name) to produce the best service in terms of high- resolution imaging, and is even capable of photo quality printing . These types of systems tend to be easier to use, require no warm up time and cost little compared to some other types of printing systems.

Laser Printers

Usually laser printers tend to initially cost a little more than some of their competitors, however, their low cost per print and the fact they offer the quickest printing available makes them a popular choice in environments where a lot of paper is needed.

Inkless Printers

As opposed to traditional printing means, inkless printers are a relatively modern technology that as the name suggests do not require ink when producing a print, but instead rely upon colourless heat-reactive crystals to create the image.

All In One (Multifunctional) Printers

All in one (AIO) printers are capable of fusing a myriad of functions taken from each of the popular printer models mentioned above, to offer multifunctional usage and efficient operations combined into one succinct unit. Despite a higher initial unit cost, in terms of convenience and the reduction of gadget clutter, these types of technologies always prove very popular.
