  • Impact printer refers to a class of printers that work by banging a head or needle against an ink ribbon to make a mark on the paper.
  • The three most common forms of impact printers are:
    • Dot-matrix.
    • Daisy-wheel.
    • Line printers.

Key Points

• Dot-matrix Printers 
  • The technology behind dot-matrix printing is in such a way that the paper is pressed against a drum (a rubber-coated cylinder).
  • The electromagnetically-driven printhead moves across the paper and strikes the printer ribbon situated between the paper and printhead pin.
  • The impact of the printhead against the printer ribbon imprints ink dots on the paper which create human-readable characters.

Additional Information

• Laser Printer
  • ​A laser printer is a printer that uses a focused beam of light to transfer text and images onto paper. 
• Inkjet printer
  • ​Inkjet printers, as the name implies, use ink to print text, graphics, and images onto various types of paper. 
  • Inkjet printers, cartridges, and supplies are more widely available therefore cheaper than their thermal printer.
• Thermal printer​
  • Thermal printers use tiny heating elements to activate or transfer pigments.
