Indicates if the printer is new or refurbished. Refurbished printers are recycled printers with brand new parts.

Refers to whether or not a printer has built-in tanks for ink. This feature is specific to Tank printers and allows them to store high quantities of ink. Non-tank printers will be classified as “standard”.

Printer Type specifies the printing technology. Inkjet printers use ink cartridges which output droplets of ink onto paper through the printhead nozzles. Laser printers use a laser beam to create an image onto a drum, which then transfers the image onto paper through powder toner cartridges. Dot Matrix printers use printheads made of pins which press ink-soaked ribbon onto paper to create images. Zero Ink printers utilize heat technology, not requiring an ink cartridge, toner or ribbon.
