Impact printers are dot-matrix printers like the Okidats Microline series. they use a print-head that has anywhere from 9 to 24 small pins that are forced out of the head and onto an ink impregnated ribbon which hits the paper and makes the impression of the character... just like a typewriter. Inkjet printers are not impact printers :P
