Non-impact device printers and plotters use laser tecniques, inkjet sprays, Xerographic process, electrostatic methods and electro thermal methods to get images onto the paper.
Plotters
A graphic printer that images with ink pens.It actually draws point to point lines directly from vector graphics files.The plotter was the first computer output device that could print graphics as well as accommodate full size engineering and architectural drawings.Using different colored pens, it was able to print in color long before ink jet printers beacme an alternative.
Pen plotters are still the most affordable printing device for CAD and other resolution unlike any other printer.The lines are not made up of dots .They are actually drawn providing infinite resolution.
