Printers  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Printers can be classified according to various criteria. They are differentiated according to certain areas, such as media contact. In this case, non-impact printers and impact printers. Impact printers include dot-matrix, daisy wheel and ball printers, inkjet, thermal and laser printers. One differentiates not only by printer type, but also by printing method. The smallest printable units are character printers, line printers and page printers, such as daisy wheel printers, type chain printers and laser printers. Printer ports such as wired parallel ports, USB, FIREWIRE, NETWORK, SERIAL or wireless connections such as W-LAN, ETHERNET and BLUETOOTH are also available. Bidirectional concepts also exist here. Modern interfaces such as PARALLEL, USB, FIREWIRE and NETWORK support this type of data transmission. This makes it possible to receive and transmit complex confirmation messages from the printer. The information content is much higher than in previous systems. Many modern printers provide the printed product with an almost invisible marking, which shows the origin of the document or the type of printer. This is used, for example, in the prosecution of criminals. The paper is transported inside the printing unit either by rubber rollers or an endless drive.
