razels: Line printers have been designed to use many different types of printing mechanisms. Two of the most common print mechanisms are the drum and the chain. Drum printers use a solid, cylindrical drum, rotating at a rapid speed. Speeds of dram printers vary from 200 to over 2000 lines per minute. Chain printers have their character set on a rapidly rotating chain called a print chain. Speeds of chain printers range from 400 to 2400 lines per minute.

razels: Page printers are high-speed nonimpact printers. Their printing rates are so high that output appears to emerge from the printer a page at a time. A variety of techniques are used in the design of page printers. These techniques, called electrophotographic techniques, have developed from the paper copier technology. Laser-beam printers use a combination of laser beam and electrophotographic techniques to create printer output at a rate equal to 18000 lines per minute.

There are three types of printers: character printers, line printers and page printers.
A letter-quality printer is a character printer which produces output of typewriter quality.
A dot-matrix printer is a printer that forms each character as a pattern of dots.
A character printer is the most common printer type with microcomputer systems.
A line printer is the most common printer type used on large computer systems.
Printers that use electromechanical mechanisms that cause hammers to strike against a ribbon and the paper are called impact printers. They are used for high-volume paper output on most computer systems.
Nonimpact printers are high-speed page printers. They do not hit or impact a ribbon to print. Their printing rates are so high that output appears to emerge from the printer a page at a time
Line and page printers are the most widely used printers.
Dot-matrix printers are generally faster printers than the letter-quality printers — in the range of 50 to 200 characters per second. But they have a lower quality of type.
A letter-quality printer is the slowest printer type.
Typewriters and letter-quality printers are good examples of character printers.
Ink-jet printers spray small drops of ink onto paper to form printed characters.
Drum printers and chain printers are the most common types of line printers. Chain printers are faster than drum printers.
Electrophotographic techniques are used in the operation of page printers.
