    Printer is a hardware device that generates hard copies of documents. It accepts input commands to print soft copies of documents like text files, images, or combinations. Printers are classified as 2D or 3D. 2D printers print text and graphics on paper, while 3D printers create physical 3D objects. There are several types of printers including inkjet printers, laser printers, 3D printers, LED printers, solid ink printers, dot matrix printers, multifunction printers, and thermal printers. Each uses different technologies to generate prints.

    Answer no 4:

    Printer:

    A printer is a hardware output device that is used to generate hard copy and print any document. A
    document can be of any type such as a text file, image, or the combination of both. It accepts input
    command by users on a computer or on other devices to print the documents. For example, if you have to
    submit a project report at your college, you need to create a soft copy of your report and print it with the
    help of the printer.

    Printers are one of the common computer peripheral devices that can be classified into two categories that
    are 2D and 3D printers. The 2D printers are used to print text and graphics on a paper, and 3D printers are
    used to create three dimensional physical objects.

    Inkjet Printers
    It is widely used by home and business computer users that prints characters by spraying the ink
    using magnetic plates on the paper. It contains a paper feed assembly, ink cartridge, print
    head, stabilizer bar, and belt.

    Laser printers
    The laser printer is one of the common personal computer printers. It was introduced in 1971, and
    after that it was developed at Xerox PARC by Gary Starkweather.

    3D Printers
    One of the best enhancements in the history of printing technology is the 3d printer, which was
    developed by Chuck Hull in 1984. It produces 3D objects and items by using quality resin.

    LED Printers
    The LED printer is mostly like a laser printer. It uses the drum, ink, and fuser system to print the
    black or colored documents.

    Solid Ink Printers


    A laser class solid ink printer is designed to save space and money on packaging. It uses a unique
    type of ink technology that is melted into a liquid before being used. As inkjet printers stream the
    ink directly on the paper, but solid ink printers are different as they stream the ink on the drum.

    Dot Matrix Printers


    The dot matrix printers are also known as a pin printer that was released by IBM in 1957.
    Although, in 1970, Centronics created the first dot-matrix impact printer. It strikes an ink ribbon
    using print heads that place thousands of little dots to form images and text.

    Multifunction Printers
    Multifunction printer is a hardware device that can perform various tasks such as printing,
    scanning, faxing, and copying. It is also called the All-in-One printer. It is suitable for budget-
    minded businesses that want to reduce costs, consolidate assets, and improve workflow.

    Thermal printer
    The thermal printer is invented by Jack Kilby that is also known as an electrothermal printer,
    thermal transfer printer, or thermal wax-transfer printer. It utilizes heated pins in order to produce
    the image on paper.
