Question

Define any three types of impact and non-impact printers in terms of their: ·        1)Cost of Printing ·       
2)Printing Mechanism ·       
3)Speed of Printing​

Answer 1

Answer:

That’s always a major factor. As well as the printer’s purchase price, consideration must be taken of the expense of printers, toners, cartridges, paper, maintenance, etc.

Some printers, like laser printers, have a short life span. A good printer’s price will cost quite a lot.

Inkjet printers are cheap nowadays while laser printers are more costly.

Speed

For a typist who needs to print a document on a word processor, a wait of one minute could be acceptable, but that would be unreasonable if several hundred documents (e.g. invoices and bills) needed to be printed.

Generally, the best printers are more costly and this needs to be taken into account along with the amount of work they have to do.
