    Inkjet Printer: An ink-jet printer is a type of non-impact printer and it belongs to a latest technology. It prints characters and graphics by spraying tiny drops of liquid ink on paper. These printers can produce quality text and graphics in both black-and-white and color.
    Inkjet printers are slower than laser printers. They can print 1 to 6 pages per minute. Its print quality is higher than dot matrix printer. They are also relatively inexpensive.
    Dot Matrix Printer: A dot matrix printer is an impact printer producing printed images when tiny pins on a print head strike an inked ribbon. When the ribbon presses against the paper, it creates dots that from character and graphics.
    The print head on a dot matrix printer can contain nine to twenty-four pins. This number of pins depends on the manufacture and the printer model. A higher number of pins print more dots that produce higher quality.
    Cheaper dot matrix printers use 100 to 150 DPI. Their speed is from 200 to 300 characters per minute. The expensive printers typically use 300 DPI and a speed of 300 to 1000 characters per minute. Dot matrix printers generate a lot of noise and do not produce a very high quality of print, especially when printing graphics.

      Ink-Jet printers produce images by spraying thousands of droplets of electrically charged ink onto a page. For the last several years, ink-jet printing has been the technology of choice for home users who want to produce affordable, hard-copy colour output from the personal desktop systems. Most ink-jet printers sold today an produce black and white, greyscale, and colour outputs. The principal advantage to ink-jet printing is its low cost. While some commercial level ink-jet printers cost thousands of dollars, you can buy a respectable colour ink-jet printer for your desktop PC for as little as $100 or so.

      Colour printers using other technologies generally carry higher prices on low-end models. Ink-jet printers bring some disadvantages, however. They often take longer to output text than laser printers require, and the hard copy may not look as crisp. What's more ink-jet printers draw ink from replaceable colour cartridges and the cost of new cartridges can mount up over time if you print documents with a lot of colour.
