插图：Nonimpact printers are the most widely used printers for PCs today. Nonimpact printers can produce both text and graphics. Some of the most popular nonimpact printers are laser printers and inkjet printers.InkJet primers (also called bubble-jet printers) are the least expensive (and most popular) nonimpact printers. Like dot-matrix printers, inkjet printers work by forming an image that is composed of tiny dots, but the dots are much smaller and more numerous. The result is a printout that' s difficult to distinguish from the fully-formed characters printed by laser printers. InkJet printers can also print in color, which makes them popular choices for home users. Earlier inkjets had problems with smudging, but new ink formulations have all but eliminated this problem. Although inkjet printers are inexpensive and produce excellent output, they are slow, and per-page costs may exceed the costs of running a laser printer due to the generally high cost of ink cartridges.Laser printers work like copy machines. Under the printer' s computerized control, a laser beam creates electrical charges on a rotating print drum. These charges attract toner, which is transferred to the paper and fused to its surface by a heat process. In contrast to inkjets, laser printers print faster; some can crank out 18 or more pages per minute. Although they are more expensive initially than inkjet printers, laser printers generally have lower per-page costs.
