[–] purplemonkeymad@lemmy.world 8 points 3 years ago (1 child) Honestly just having a laser/led printer removes so many of the problems with printers. All inkjets should be replaced. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 5 points 3 years ago (1 child) Idk about LED printers but ink jet is better than laser for printing photos. For general use I think laser should be the standard over ink jet, definitely. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] gk99@lemmy.world 6 points 3 years ago (2 children) If I need photos printed, I'll go to a shop. It doesn't happen that often and, frankly, inkjets suck so badly that I honestly doubt I'd save time or money owning one. All the headaches I've dealt with just trying to print basic stuff like shipping labels and documents disappeared the moment I bought a Brother laser printer. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 point 3 years ago Totally agree. I'm not going to buy special paper and fuck with settings when I can just pay a little extra for a professional to do it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] nBodyProblem@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago For the average person, this is the answer. Buying a high end large format inkjet is the answer for artists, photographers, and graphic designers who regularly need hard copies of their work. The average user who prints a couple times a year would be much better served with a b/w laserjet and the occasional trip to a print shop when something fancier is needed. permalink fedilink source parent
