Introduction of A Basic Printer
The word printer means different things in different fields of applications. Going by the generic meaning, a printer means one who is in the occupation of printing and publishing. It also means a device which prints out the results of data computed by computers, as applied to computers. In the celluloid world, it stands for devices used to copy and modify films. It is extremely relevant to talk about the computer printers in this article.
Computer Printer
A computer printer transforms digitally stored documents of graphics or text data into paper/hard copies. Printers can be permanently interfaced with individual computers or can be anywhere in the network, invariably through network interfaces, either wired or wireless, so that any or all users can share for hard copy production. You will normally see a wired network in small areas known as LAN and wireless networks or Ethernets are over a wide area (WAN).
Types of Modern Printers
Printers have evolved so much that you can have true life quality printing with them which is a departure from the earlier ‘dot matrix' printers. Here are some printers which are relevant today.
· Inkjet printers
· Laser printers
· Plotters
· Thermal printers
· Digital minilabs
Generally in an office environment, the first three types of printers are the preferred ones. These are designed especially for office needs such as printing text matters, graphics like charts and power point presentation documents etc with an exception that plotters are dedicated for uses like constructional drawings which can't be ‘printed'.
How Printers Work
Inkjet printers print by placing extremely small (50-60 microns in size) ink drops precisely in the format of the original document. The precision is so high that equals resolutions of 1440x720 dpi. The dots can any colors in predetermined combination to create color images.
Laser printers work similar to photocopiers but differing in producing images. The document is directly scanned on to a photosensitive drum creating a negative image which is later developed by ‘lamping back' and pressurized rolling over the paper by fusing.
Plotters can print only line diagrams by one or more pens moving laterally according to the commands received by them.
Buying Printers
Fundamental points to consider while buying printers are price, speed, quality of print and in addition, cost of printing. You may want to look at the features offered like inbuilt cameras, resolution of minimum 1200x1200 dpi, cost of toner cartridge etc. Warranty will be usually for a year and generally speaking, you need not worry about maintenance/after-sales-service during their lives. But for photo printing, you need to buy the specific type of printer, if your preferred inkjet doesn't boast of this feature inbuilt there.

Yeoman Plotter $78.07 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Yeoman Plotter is a plotter used on ships and boats, which allows GPS and radar navigation data to be used much more effectively with traditional paper charts. It is a unique piece of navigational aid in that it allows the navigation with electronic aids, and also allows the continued navigation when the electronics fail (by using the maps and manual plotting instead). The plotter consists of a plotting surface impregnated with fine wires and a moveable mouse containing a sensing ring. The mouses location on the surface can be read by the system at all times. To use the plotter, a conventional chart is first fixed in position on the surface (the method of fixing varies between the different models of plotter; see below). It is then registered the mouse is placed over three known points on the chart and a button pressed at each. Knowing the location on the surface of these points, the system can interpolate the mouses position anywhere on the chart. Many charts now have plotter reference points printed on them, and the coordinates of these points are preprogrammed in the Yeoman unit, but this is not essential.
