|
Laser Printer |
Work by placing toner on an electrically charged rotating drum (imaging drum) and then depositing the toner on paper as the paper moves through the system as the same speed the drum is turning. |
|
|
Inkjet Printer |
Uses a Print Head that moves across the paper, creating one line of the image with each pass. The printer puts ink on the paper using a matrix of small dots. |
|
|
Direct Thermal Printer |
Burns dots onto special coated paper, called thermal paper. The process requires no ink and does not use a ribbon. |
|
|
Thermal Transfer Printer |
Uses a ribbon that contains was-based ink. The heating element melts the ribbon (also called foil) onto special thermal paper so that it stays glued to the paper as the feeder assembly moves the paper through the printer. |
|
|
Impact Printers |
Creates a printed page by using some mechanism that touches or hits the paper. This only prints text it receives as raw data. It has a print head that moves across the width of the paper, using pins to print a matrix of dots on the page. The pin shoots against a cloth ribbon, which hits paper, depositing the ink. The ribbon provides both the ink for printing and the lubrication for the pinheads. |
