Following HP's acquisition of Compaq in 2002, this series of notebooks was discontinued, replaced with the HP Pavilion, HP Compaq, and Compaq Presario notebooks. The OmniBook name would later be repurposed for a line of consumer-oriented notebooks in 2024, replacing the old Pavilion and Spectre series of notebooks.
HP 9815A. Chronologically, the models of the family were: HP 9810A, a keystroke programmable computer with magnetic cards and LED display, introduced in 1971, [1]; HP 9820A, introduced in 1972, was the first HP model that deals with algebraic input (not only RPN) [2] featured a high level language simpler than BASIC that was later named high performance language (HPL),
In computers, a printer driver or a print processor is a piece of software on a computer that converts the data to be printed to a format that a printer can understand. The purpose of printer drivers is to allow applications to do printing without being aware of the technical details of each printer model.
Hewlett-Packard 9862A calculator plotter drawing a Lorenz attractor. A plotter is a machine that produces vector graphics drawings. Plotters draw lines on paper using a pen, or in some applications, use a knife to cut a material like vinyl or leather. In the latter case, they are sometimes known as a cutting plotter.
HP-GL, short for Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language and often written as HPGL, is a printer control language created by Hewlett-Packard (HP). HP-GL was the primary printer control language used by HP plotters. [1] It was introduced with the plotter HP-9872 in 1977 and became a standard for almost all
Inkjet printing is a type of computer printing that recreates a digital image by propelling droplets of ink onto paper and plastic substrates. [1] Inkjet printers were the most commonly used type of printer in 2008, [2] and range from small inexpensive consumer models to expensive professional machines.
HP introduced the first laser printer for IBM PC compatible personal computers in May 1984 at the Computer Dealers' Exhibition . It was a 300- dpi , 8 ppm printer that sold for $3,495 with the price reduced to $2,995 in September 1985. [ 6 ]
The spacing of the wires controls the resolution of the plotter; for example, 100 or 400 wires to the inch. Dry Toner models use a process similar to xerography in photocopiers. Unlike a laser printer or photocopier, there is no transfer drum used in most electrostatic plotters; the imaging paper is directly exposed to the charging electrode array.
