A laser engraving machine can be used to print metal, dye, sublimation, and heat-sensitive graphics on a material surface. Laser engravers are used to print aluminum, plastic, and other non-metal materials, such as wood and metals.
Laser printers are smaller in size and are used to print large-scale designs. However, most inexpensive laser printing printers use a high-powered beam of light and can print on non-metal materials.
