Printers.
Printing is the final stage in creating a document with a computer. That is why we have printers attached
to our computers. The results that you get with different types of printers will vary greatly. Here is a
guide to help you decide which one is most suitable for your needs. Printers vary in cost, speed, print
quality. There is a printer for every application.
Dotmatrix printers use pins to print the dots needed to shape a character. They print text and graphics
and nowadays some of them can print up to 450 characters per second (cps). However they produce
relatively low resolution output 72 or 144 dots per inch. This level of quality is suitable only for drafts and
it is not recommended for reports or books that have a wide audience.
One common type of nonimpact printer is an inkjet printer. It operates by projecting small ink droplets
onto paper to form the required image. This type of printer is quite fast, silent and not so expensive as a
laser printer. You can expect high quality results because there are some inkjet printers on the market
with a resolution of 600 dpi.
Laser printers produce output at great speed and with a very high resolution of 600 or 1200 dpi. They
scan the image with a laser beam and transfer it to paper with a special ink powder. They are constantly
improved. They can produce a wide range of fonts, they can emulate different language systems, they
can make high quality graphics, and they have many other advantages. Unfortunately they are very
expensive.
There are also thermal printers. They use heat, a special kind of paper and electrosensitive methods.
They are silent and inexpensive. But some colour models that can emulate HP plotters cost too much.
Photosetters are an attractive alternative. They do not print on regular paper but on photographic paper
or microfilm. They can produce output with a resolution of over 2000 dpi. They are also extremely fast
but they are the most expensive.
Plotters are a special kind of printer. Plotters use ink and fine pens held in a carriage to draw very
detailed designs on paper. They are used for construction plans, engineering drawings and other
technical illustrations.
