    what is the purpose of the


    printer?
    printer is a peripheral which makes a
    persistent human readable
    representation of graphics or text on
    paper or similar physical media.

    History of printer
    The world's first computer printer was a 19th-century
    mechanically driven apparatus invented by Charles
    Babbage for his difference engine. This system used a
    series of metal rods with characters printed on them
    and stuck a roll of paper against the rods to print the
    characters. The first commercial printers generally used
    mechanisms from electric typewriters and Teletype
    machines, which operated in a similar fashion.

    The demand for higher speed led to the


    development of new systems specifically for
    computer use. Among the systems widely
    used through the 1980s were daisy wheel
    systems similar to typewriters, line printers
    that produced similar output but at much
    higher speed, and dot matrix systems that
    could mix text and graphics but produced
    relatively low-quality output. The plotter is use
    for those requiring high quality line art like
    blueprints.

    The introduction of the low-cost laser printer in


    1984 with the first HP LaserJet, and the addition
    of PostScript in next year's Apple Laser Writer, set
    off a revolution in printing known as desktop
    publishing. Laser printers using PostScript mixed
    text and graphics, like dot-matrix printers, but at
    quality levels formerly available only from
    commercial typesetting systems

    in 1990, most simple printing tasks like fliers and brochures


    were now created on personal computers and then laser
    printed; expensive offset printing systems were being
    dumped as scrap. The HP Deskjet of 1988 offered the same
    advantages as laser printer in terms of flexibility, but
    produced somewhat lower quality output (depending on
    the paper) from much less expensive mechanisms. Inkjet
    systems rapidly displaced dot matrix and daisy wheel
    printers from the market. By the 2000s high-quality
    printers of this sort had fallen under the $100 price point
    and became common place.

    The Types Of Printer :


    An impact printer makes
    contact with the paper. It
    usually forms the print
    image by pressing an inked
    ribbon against the paper
    using a hammer or pins.
    Following are some
    examples of impact printers.

    IMPACT PRINTER

    Dot-Matrix Printers
    The dot-matrix printer uses print heads containing from 9 to 24 pins. These pins produce
    patterns of dots on the paper to form the individual characters. The 24 pin dot-matrix
    printer produces more dots that a 9 pin dot-matrix printer, which results in much better
    quality and clearer characters. The general rule is: the more pins, the clearer the letters on
    the paper. The pins strike the ribbon individually as the print mechanism moves across the
    entire print line in both directions, i-e, from left to right, then right to left, and so on. The
    user can produce a color output with a dot-matrix printer (the user will change the black
    ribbon with a ribbon that has color stripes). Dot-matrix printers are inexpensive and
    typically print at speeds of 100-600 characters per second.

    Daisy-wheel printers
    In order to get the quality of type found on typewriters, a daisy-wheel impact
    printer can be used. It is called daisy-wheel printer because the print
    mechanism looks like a daisy; at the end of each Petal is a fully formed
    character which produces solid-line print. A hammer strikes a petal
    containing a character against the ribbon, and the character prints on the
    paper. Its speed is slow typically 25-55 characters per second.
