Differences Between Impact and Non-Impact Printers
Dot Matrix Printer - Main Topic: Differences Between Impact and Non-Impact Printers Impact Printers
Laser Printer - Main Topic: Differences Between Impact and Non-Impact Printers Non-Impact Printers
1 It produces print on paper by striking mechanism. It produces print on paper with a non-striking mechanism
2 It uses pins, hammers or wheel to strike against an inked ribbon to print on a paper.. It uses laser, spray of special ink, or heat and pressure to print on paper. 
3 Normally impact printers use continuous paper sheet.  Non-Impact printers normally use individual paper sheets.
4 Impact printers are normally less expansive. Non-Impact printers are more expansive.
5 Print quality of impact printers is lower than those of non impact printers.. Print quality of Non-Impact printers is higher than those of impact printers.
6 Impact printers use special inked ribbons to produce print on paper when print head strikes. Non-Impact printers use toner or cartridge for printing on paper.
7 Impact printers are low speed printers. They consume a lot of time to print a document. Non-Impact printers are very fast, they can print many pages per minute.
8 Impact printers are very noisy because they strike print head. Non-Impact printers do not make a noise because they do not use striking mechanism in which print head strikes on ribbon and paper etc.
9 Examples of Impact printers are Dot matrix and daisy wheel printers. Examples of Non-Impact printers are laser printers and inkjet printers.
10 Impact printers use old printing technologies. Non impact printers use latest printing technologies.

Bus Topology Advantages Disadvantages

Bus Topology Bus topology is the simplest network topology . In bus topology , all computers in network are connected to a common communication wire. This wire is called BUS. Terminators are used at both ends of wire. Bus Topology is Cheap, easy to handle and implement. Bus Topology require less cable. Bus Topology is best suited for small networks. Working of Bus Topology with Advantages and Disadvantages Advantages of Bus Network Topology 1. It is very simple topology . 2. It is easy to use. 3. It needs small amount of wire for connecting computers. 4. It is less expensive due to small wire needed. 5. If one computer fails, it does not disturb the other computers in network. Other computers will continue to share information and other resources with other connected computers. Disadvantages of Bus Network Topology 1. Only small number of computers can be connected in a bus network . 2. Network speed slows down as the number of computer increases in b...
