Laser Printed Pages

[TKS]

Hi
I intend to print photoes on both sides of a page using a laser printer.
If these pages are kept stacked together, will the pages stick together over
time?
Will the colour/ink be damaged in any way?
Will laser printed pics fade over time?

Thank you .

time?

No. The only time you have problems with sticking is if the laser
printout is stacked next to vinyl. For example, if you bind a stack of
laser prints in a plastic three-ring binder, you the top and last page
will stick to the plastic. But the laser prints will never stick to
each other.

Will the colour/ink be damaged in any way?
No.

Will laser printed pics fade over time?

No. Laser printouts are made up of plastic toner that is melted onto
the page during the printing process. You can leave it sitting in
direct sunlight and will have no problem. The paper will yellow and
decay, but the image will be unaffected.

Well it will fade but not as much as inkjets will.

Hi Mr Marek,

Can I let the toner run untill it is finished or I should change the
cartridge
when the printer monitor prompts me to change it?

Will the printer be damaged if the toner is empty?

Thank you

I've always taken toner cartridges out and shaken them to get additional use
out of them. I have had no adverse effects in doing this.
