2.Continuous (CIJ):
The charged droplets pass through another electrostatic field and are directed
(deflected) by electrostatic deflection plates to print on the receptor material
(substrate), or allowed to continue on undeflected to a collection gutter for reuse. The more highly charged droplets are deflected to a greater degree. Only
a small fraction of the droplets is used to print, the majority being recycled.

Thermal Dod:
In the thermal inkjet process, the print cartridges consist of a series of tiny
chambers, each containing a heater.
To eject a droplet from each chamber, a pulse of current is passed through the
heating element causing a rapid vaporization of the ink in the chamber and
forming a bubble, which causes a large pressure increase, propelling a droplet
of ink onto the paper.
The inks must have a volatile component to form the vapour bubble; otherwise
droplet ejection cannot occur.
The inks involved are usually water-based and use either pigments or dyes as
the colorant.
Peizoelectric inkjets
are not effected by
Kogation(build up of ink
residue)where as
Thermal and C.I.J
printers are.
C.I.J printers ink lasts
longer due to its ability
to recycle the majority
of ink used.
C.I.J and Thermal
inkjets are less
expensive then
Peizoelectric printers as
Peizoelectric heads are
more expensive to
manufacture.
Peizoelectric inkjets
have a wider variety of
ink than Thermal
inkjets as there is no
requirement for a
volatile compound like
in Thermal inkjets.

repeatedly passing alaser beam back and forth over a negatively charged cylindrical
drum to define a differentially-charged image.
The drum then selectively collects electrically charged powdered ink, and transfers the
image to paper, which is then heated in order to permanently fuse the text and/or
imagery.
Laserprintersemploy axerographicprinting process.
Laser printing differs from analogue photocopiers in that the image is produced by the
light. Powdered ink (toner) particles are then electrostatically attracted to the charged
areas of the drum that have not been laser-beamed.
The drum then transfers the image onto paper (which is passed through the machine)
by direct contact. Finally the paper is passed onto a finisher, which uses intense heat
to instantly fuse the toner/image onto the paper.
There are typically seven steps involved in the process:

Process:
The paper is positioned at a blank line on the paper. The input logic takes in a stream
of characters and assembles the line to be printed in memory.
When a line is available the print-head sets off from the left margin. As the head
travels across the paper its position is tracked. For ten characters per inch the tracking
might be in 1/100ths of an inch, but for closer character spacing it will be more
accurate.
Each print-head position corresponds to a both a character to be printed and a
column of dot-positions within that character. Columns of pixels are made by firing the
pins in each position.
The shapes of the characters are usually stored at manufacture in a ROM in the
printer.). As the print-head is moved to successive locations the character and column
position required are looked up and drive circuits push the pins accordingly.
The high speed action required from the pins on a dot matrix printer demands quite a

The output is not high resolution. Colour
USES:
Applications such as receipt printing, especially when multipart
formsare required.
Dot matrix printers are used in banks and stores where they
printduplicates on two part forms for record keeping.
Used in voting machines where they make a copy for thevoter to
take home, and a second copy for permanent records for recounts.
