Types of Printers
Toner-based printers
Toner-based printers work in the same fashion as many photocopiers, by adhering toner to the media. The most common type of toner-based printer is the laser printer, which uses precision lasers to cause adherence. Laser printers are known for high quality prints, good print speed, and a low cost-per-copy; they are the most common printer for many general-purpose office applications. They are far less commonly used as consumer printers due to a high initial cost.
Laser printers are available in both color and monochrome varieties.
Another toner based printer is the LED printer which uses an array of LEDs instead of a laser to cause toner adhesion.
Liquid inkjet printers
Inkjet Printers
Inkjet printers spray very small, precise amounts (usually a few picolitres) of ink onto the media. Inkjet printing (and the related bubble-jet technology) are the most common consumer print technology; as high-quality inkjet printers are inexpensive to produce. Virtually all modern inkjet printers are color devices; some, known as photo printers, include extra pigments to better reproduce the color gamut needed for high-quality photographic prints (and are additionally capable of printing on photographic card stock, as opposed to plain office paper).
Inkjet printers consist of nozzles that produce very small ink bubbles that turn into tiny droplets of ink. The dots formed are the size of tiny pixels. Ink-jet printers can print high quality text and graphics. They are also almost silent in operation. Inkjet printers have a much lower initial cost than do laser printers, but have a much higher cost-per-copy, as the ink needs to be frequently replaced. In addition, consumer printer manufacturers have adapted a business model similar to that employed by manufacturers of razors; the printers themselves are frequently sold below cost, and the ink is then sold at a high markup. Various legal and technological means are employed to try and force users to only purchase ink from the manufacturer (thus leading to vendor lock-in); however there is a thriving aftermarket for such things as third-party ink cartridges (new or refurbished) and refill kits. Inkjet printers are also far slower than laser printers. Inkjet printers also have the disadvantage that pages must be allowed to dry before being aggressively handled; premature handling can cause the inks (which are adhered to the page in liquid form) to run.
Definition
Toner - A special type of ink used by copy machines and laser printers. Toner consists of a dry, powdery substance that is electrically charged so that it adheres to a drum, plate, or piece of paper charged with the opposite polarity.
For most laser printers, the toner comes in a cartridge that you insert into the printer. When the cartridge is empty, you can replace it or have it refilled. Typically, you can print thousands of pages with a single cartridge.

Toner Cartridges - A special type of ink used by copy machines and laser printers. Toner consists of a dry, powdery substance that is electrically charged so that it adheres to a drum, plate, or piece of paper charged with the opposite polarity.
Ink Cartridges - An ink cartridge is a replaceable component of an ink-jet printer that contains the ink and sometimes the print-head itself that is spread on paper during printing. Each ink cartridge contains one or more partitioned ink reservoirs, electronic contacts and a chip that communicates with the printer.
Inkjet Cartridge - A replaceable unit that holds ink and the print nozzles for ink jet printers. A separate cartridge for each of the four CMYK colors is the most efficient. Low-cost printers include cyan, magenta and yellow inks in one cartridge, requiring the entire unit be replaced when one color is empty. The least efficient is a single cartridge that contains all four colors.
Copier Toner Cartridges -
A laser printer is a popular type of personal computer printer that uses a non-impact (keys don't strike the paper), photocopier technology. When a document is sent to the printer, a laser beam "draws" the document on a selenium-coated drum using electrical charges. After the drum is charged, it is rolled in toner , a dry powder type of ink. The toner adheres to the charged image on. The Copier Toner Cartridge holds the toner, or the dry powder of ink.
Inkjet Refill Kits - I'm not a proponent of refillable cartridges, but some swear by them. There is a thriving aftermarket for such things as third-party ink cartridges (new or refurbished) and refill kits. Laser Toner - Single units where the toner and imaging drum are housed inside a plastic case. Used by laser printers, fax machines, and low-end copiers. Laser Toner Cartridge - Replaceable, recyclable, and reusable component of a laser printer used to form images on paper. It consists of a rigid plastic housing containing graphite and plastic ink powder, a metal fuser roller, and a synthetic felt wand.
Printer Toner -
An ink substance used in a computer printer to develop a xerographic image. Printer Ink - A semi-solid quick drying ink made especially for use in printing.
