Printing Technology: Decide between inkjet (better for high-quality images) or laser (more economical for text-heavy documents). Printing Volume: Assess how many pages you'll need to print per day or month. Look for a printer with the appropriate duty cycle (maximum recommended prints per month). Color or Black & White: If you frequently print images or colorful documents, opt for a color printer; otherwise, a black-and-white printer might be sufficient.
