Inkjet MFPs, what are they?

An MFP can be called any multifunctional device. Today, however, associations have begun to be associated with equipment that can scan, print and copy at the same time. Below we will consider the features of the technology, as well as find out both its advantages and disadvantages.

How do MFPs differ from simple printers?

Despite the many similar characteristics, several differences can be identified. For example:

1. Based on the main purposes of the MFP, it becomes clear that, unlike conventional models that only print, they can even function as a copier and scanner. Therefore, when choosing, it is recommended to understand the criteria not of the entire installation as a whole, but separately by its functionality (for example, copying equipment and fax).
2. Thus, the first of the named units is considered the most convenient due to its own advanced actions.

Reference! Only when appropriate.

Inkjet MFP what is it

As previously stated, this device allows the user to copy, scan and print texts and images. In addition, you should know the following facts:

• The described printer is capable of printing both text and photographs, large-sized images and postcards. And most importantly - in excellent quality.
• This type of design requires the use of special paper with a perfectly flat surface.
• If we talk about the speed of function execution, then it is worth understanding that the indicator directly depends on the amount of assigned work. So, if you are going to print several pages at once, you will have to wait a while. However, when tasked with producing one sheet of paper, the technician can quickly cope with it.

Pros and cons of inkjet MFP

In order to finally decide whether it is necessary to purchase the equipment mentioned above or not, it is also advisable to consider both the positive and negative aspects that the user may encounter during operation.

• The invention has a low cost and, therefore, accessibility. Thus, anyone who wants to can easily purchase the device.

Important! If the equipment breaks down, it is easier to purchase a new one rather than repair the old one.

• The small size is also an advantage. That is, the owner has the opportunity to position it in a way that is convenient for him, even on the edge of the table.
• As for the purchase of consumables, these are also small costs. To equip the printer with them, no special knowledge or skills are required.
• Unlike similar devices, inkjet guarantees clarity and high resolution of the image. The highest figures can reach 9600X2400 dpi. So detailing of small particles is ensured.

Among the disadvantages, the following points should be highlighted:

1. To print one page, you will need to use a significant amount of ink.
2. Most likely, over time the invention will begin to leak. Accordingly, both your hands and the paper itself will get dirty.
3. If the equipment is left inoperative for a long time, it may dry out in the print head.This may result in death for the device.
4. You should not buy an inkjet model if you need to constantly print a significant amount of pages. For this purpose, it is better to choose a laser option.

Thus, it is possible to independently summarize and decide whether this unit will really be necessary in a given situation. The answer directly depends on the intended purpose and allowable budget.
