Thermal printers require special heat sensitive paper. Laser printers apply a powder to regular paper that is sealed on by a heating element.
The difference between an inkjet printer and a laser jet printer is that inkjets use liquid ink and laser jets use toner cartridge and heated fusers. Inkjets can print in color and laser jets can't.
A continuous laser produces a constant wave. A pulsed laser's wave is intermittent.
A class IV laser will blind you much faster.
An ordinary light contains more than one colour. A laser is monochromatic.
laser light rays don't spread and torch light ray's do
An ink jet printer simply prints. A color laser copier COPIES. This is the significant difference between the two.

Inkjets normally work on less than 100 watts. Laser printers pull from 400 to 750 watts of power. I've found that laser printers impossible to use when running an ac inverter in my vehicle to power the printer.
A thermal printer and a laser printer are non-impact printers. A dot matrix, that fires pins against an inked roller, and uses a tractor roller to feed continuous paper through the printer, is an example of an impact printer.
Laser printer, then inkjet, then dot matrix, then thermal printers.
Depend on type of Printer. A laser, LED or electrostatic printer, YES. Dot matrix or Thermal Printer, No.
ink jet printer
The difference is the technology used in the printing. The dot matrix printer uses a matrix of needles that press through an inked ribbon to leave marks on the paper. The laser printer uses a roller system to leave charged area on the paper which attracts toner (fine particles of pigment) to stick to the paper. The dot matrix printer is largely obsolete nowadays; it has been replaced by laser/ink jet and thermal systems which are much quieter - making them more suitable for office and home use.
Laser printer cartridges are much more expensive than inkjet printer cartridges. Laser printer cartridges last a lot longer than inkjet printer cartridges.
inkjet printer is less expensive but slow starting from 2500/- only.. laser printer is more expensive but fast starting from 5000/-.. inkjet is normally color printer while if we say laser printer it means it is b/w printer.. we are having color laser printer too..
