Laser printers only use four colours and they’re designed for productive office work rather than photography. But, convention is not always a rule to be strictly adhered to. With performance improving rapidly, printing photographs with a laser printer is becoming more and more common. The trick is to understand your printer’s limitations, get the settings right and use the right printer paper. Both colour and monochrome images can be printed, but some image types produce better prints than others.

The best prints can be obtained from images with plenty of bright, vibrant colours. Good prints are obtained by choosing the right paper, avoid plain office paper and printing on glossy paper is a no-go. Comparing printed photos from a laser printer to those printed by an inkjet printer is not a fair comparison. 12th September 2015 10:53 | Tags: Photography, Cycling, Photography Tips | comments(0) The Tour of Britain came to Nottingham yesterday and we went down to cheer them on armed with cameras of course.
