A soft copy is an electronic copy. So if you are using MS Word for example you'd have a .doc file when you save a version of your document. A hard copy is a physical copy of your document i.e. when you print your document and you have a piece of paper in your hand.
Most home printer-scanners will create a file of the document.
Copy? Printer can't copy, they first ionize the paper with positive charge with the area needed to be printed. The ink is negatively charged and thus opposite charge attract, the ink goes on paper. The printer then superheats it to glue it permanently together. Thou copying implies that you first scan the document and store it into a memory buffer inside the machine and output it to the paper. http://computer.howstuffworks.com/inkjet-printer3.htm This link might guide you on printer.
An impact printer makes its image by striking the paper through an ink ribbon, using a hammer in the shape of the image (think typewriter hammer) or with wires that make dots (think dot-matrix printer). The advantage of the impact printer is that it can make multiple copies at the same time, either when you use multi-part paper with interleaved carbon paper, or with special paper (NCR type paper) that is pressure sensitive. A non-impact printer, such as a laser or ink jet printer can not do this. Multiple copies must be made by running multiple sheets of paper through the printer. One case of an impact printer is in a point-of-sale situation, where you want a copy for the store, another copy for the customer, another copy for billing, etc. While you can do this with non-impact printers, one advantage is auto-collation, and another is that you can write on the top copy (think "Paid on a certain date") and that will transcribe to the other copies.
