Definition of laser printing

Laser printing is an electrostatic digital printing process. It produces high-quality text and graphics (and moderate-quality photographs) by repeatedly passing a laser beam back and forth over a negatively charged cylinder called a "drum" to define a differentially charged image.1 The drum then selectively collects electrically charged powdered ink (toner), and transfers the image to paper, which is then heated in order to permanently fuse the text, imagery, or both. As with digital photocopiers, laser printers employ a xerographic printing process. However, laser printing differs from analog photocopiers in that the image is produced by the direct scanning of the medium across the printer's photoreceptor. This enables laser printing to copy images more quickly than most photocopiers.

What programs dominate in printers

There are more and more graphics processing programs, from the most popular Photoshop to less known and free ones like Inkscape. Professionals usually use one or two proven programs, which translates into their high productivity.

In the work of graphics or DTP operator you usually need a program for processing vector and raster graphics. You can also include word processors, programs provided by print equipment manufacturers, to the pool of programs needed for such work.


The attack of online printers

Internet printers grow like mushrooms after rain - no wonder, because the vision of sending files by the site, which will itself inform us whether everything is okay in technical matters (formats, colors, size, etc.).

However, not all printers have the option of ordering directly through their website, and this error and the background of competitors fall short, badly. However, the price you have to pay for the possibility of online orders can be deterred by smaller printing houses and printing plants from such an investment.
