Though CompTIA updates their A+ objectives every few years sometimes the information you find in books and websites that are supposed to help with A+ certification is surprisingly out of date. Most A+ certification material I see, especially online, tends to perpetuate old stereotypes about inkjets and laser printers. This material is often carried forward from old A+ certification sources, and is only accurate for old CompTIA A+ certification tests.

Many A+ certification resources preach that laser printers have a lower cost per page, due to the high cost and low capacity of inkjet consumables. Tom’s Hardware has done a comparison study that puts the lie to old thinking about inkjets, laser printers and comparable costs. The truth, it seems, is more complicated than it used to be. The bottom line: if you shop carefully and don’t fall for the cheapest inkjet, you can approach and sometimes surpass the performance and economy of a laser printer with a good quality inkjet.

CompTIA requires A+ certification candidates to know about the pros and cons of inkjets and laser printers inA+ Domain 1.0: Hardware.
