A lot of people are confused by the term ‘mono’, but all it means is that a printer prints solely in monochrome – AKA: black and white. It’s that simple.
Generally speaking, mono printers or multifunction devices tend to be slightly cheaper than their colour counterparts. These machines are usually quite popular with businesses that print a lot of formal documents, or schools and colleges where copious amounts of colour printing can end up costing a lot of money.
Mono printers and multifunction devices are usually cheaper to run, too. You can pick up good quality black ink sometimes for a fraction of the price of colour. So, if your colour printing needs are minimal or non-existent, a mono machine is the perfect option for keeping costs to a minimum.
