What is a printer?
A mechanical/electrical device that prints text or
pictures/graphics to paper or other media. There are
several different types of Printers:
- Daisy Wheel: not used much anymore but uses a wheel or
with stamps of each character on it. The hammer
presses on the character to imprint through the ribbon
to get it on the paper. The print is very clear but
they are slow and are limited to the characters on the
wheel.
- Dot Matrix: creates the characters or graphics by
striking the pins in the required pattern. The most
commonly are either a line of 9 pins or 2 lines of 12
pins. These printers are usually fast and can print
through multiple copies of paper. They are still
widely used in business today.
- Line Printer: These either use a single printhead,
multiple printheads, or a band to print extremely
fast. Some of the faster line printers can print as
much as 1200 lines in 1 minute. The print isn't
usually very good quality when compared to regular dot
matrix printers.
- Ink Jet: Sprays ink on a sheet of paper. Inkjet
technology continues to progress and the resolutions
have become extremely high and the speeds are much
better than they used to be.
- Thermal Printer: Uses heat to imprint the images/text
on heat sensitive paper. They are commonly used on
cash registers because they are so fast. Fax machines
used to print on this paper with but this technology
was taken over by inkjet and laser after the 90's.
Many times the paper can fade with heat and time.
- Laser: Spreads toner on a sheet of paper and basically
bakes it on. They are very fast and the quality is
generally very good. This uses similar technology to a
copier.
- LED Printer: Okidata pioneered this technology. It
uses a LED strip rather than a laser to project the
image on the paper. Generally these are much cooler
running the older laser printers.
