Solid Ink Density Is Solid-ink Printer Exactly The Same As A Photocopying Machine?

Is solid-ink printer exactly the same as a photocopying machine? - solid ink density

I was wondering. It's solid ink printer, a copier? Or a photocopy machine is just one example of a solid ink printer? I hope you understand. Please comment further. Thank you!

A solid ink printer uses solid ink sticks that melt into a liquid and then sprayed onto a surface of the steel drum, then transferred and applied to paper. These have been around for at least a decade or more.

Most copiers are / were based toner. The light used in copiers and original mirrors an accurate picture of a photosensitive drum, and duplicate the image on paper to create. Many All-In-One and copiers now use a scanner to convert the image into a digital format and use a laser or inkjet printer to make copies.

So in answer to your question, no, a solid ink printers do not have a copy machine.

I hope that helps.

Currently, the solid-ink are selling printers and copiers from Xerox. The type that are relatively new to the market and expensive.

Works like solid ink drawing with pencil, ink rub is that on the page.
