Note. Line printers have a high speed as compared to the Character printers. For example, if a line of 80 characters is to be printed, the character printer need to strike against the stationery through the inked ribbon 80 times before all the character images forming the line are passed
on the stationery. A Line printer only strikes once for the whole line of 80 characters to be printed onto the stationery through the inked ribbon.
There are 3 types of Line printers: -
- Drum printers.
- Chain printers.
- Electrostatic printers.
