2. Dot matrix printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_matrix_printing

   Dot matrix printing. Dot matrix printing, [1] sometimes called impact matrix printing, is a computer printing process in which ink is applied to a surface using a relatively low-resolution dot matrix for layout. Dot matrix printers are a type of impact printer that prints using a fixed number of pins or wires [2][3] and typically use a print ...

   They produced print quality that was better than the dot matrix ImageWriters, and were cheaper than the LaserWriters. All but a few models contained Canon print engines, a few were rebadged Canon printers, while the last few were rebadged HP DeskJet printers. The Apple Color Printer was the first color inkjet printer sold by Apple.

5. History of printing - Wikipedia

   Most dot matrix printers have a single vertical line of dot-making equipment on their print heads; others have a few interleaved rows in order to improve dot density. The first dot-matrix printers were invented in Japan. [119] In 1968, Japanese manufacturer Epson released the EP-101, [120] [121] the world's first dot-matrix printer. [119]

6. Near letter-quality printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_letter-quality_printing

   Near letter-quality (NLQ) printing is a process where dot matrix printers produce high-quality text by using multiple passes to produce higher dot density. [1] The tradeoff for the improved print quality is reduced printing speed. Software can also be used to produce this effect. [2][3] The term was coined in the 1980s to distinguish NLQ ...

7. Line printer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_printer

   Comb printers, also called line matrix printers, printed a matrix of dots instead of individual characters in the same way as single-character dot matrix printers, but using a comb of hammers to print a portion of an entire row of pixels at one time (for example, every eighth pixel). By shifting the comb back and forth slightly, the entire ...
