What is a toner cartridge used for?
Starting from the basics, there are two kinds of printers, 1) Laser Printer 2) Inkjet Printer.A laser printer uses toner cartridges whereas Inkjet Printer uses Ink cartridges.Toner cartridges contain powder and are used by laser printers. Toner powder is a dry substance which mainly consist of two main components, i.e iron oxide and plastic resin. Also unlike inkjet printers, laser printers do not directly press toner powder on the paper. Instead, a laser first draws an electrostatic template of the image onto a rotating metal drum inside the printer. The drum, which is covered in photosensitive material, starts out with either a positive or negative charge.An extremely precise laser alters the electrical charge in certain spots according to data fed from the computer. The drum is then coated in magnetically charged toner, but the fine particles only adhere to the areas where the laser previously defined the image. Next a sheet of paper, which has also been magnetically charged, rolls past the drum and draws the toner away. Lastly, the fuser sets the image by warming and melting the plastic particles.If you are looking for the best toner cartridges then SuperMediaStore is the one stop destination for you.
