How dot matrix printer work?
In simple terms - the printer has a vertical line of metal pins - that strike the paper through an ink ribbon, forming the words or images by creating microscopic dots on the paper.
Which printer has a hammer that moves back and forth horizontally at high speed?
A dot matrix printer uses a printhead with a hammer that moves back and forth horizontally at high speed to strike an inked ribbon against the paper, creating characters and images.
What is the tiny hammer-like keys that strike the paper through an inked ribbon called?

What printers have tiny hammer-like keys that strike the paper through an inked ribbon?
Impact printer
What is a dot matrix printer?
Hi, Dot Matrix Printer is also called Impact Matrix printer.
Which printer operates like a typewriter?
The printer that operates like a typewriter is the impact printer, specifically the dot matrix printer. It uses a mechanism where pins strike an inked ribbon against the paper, creating characters and images similarly to how typewriters produce text. This method allows for direct contact between the printing mechanism and the paper, resembling the typing process. While less common today, dot matrix printers were widely used for their ability to produce multi-part forms and carbon copies.
Printer forms characters and graphics on a piece of paper by striking a mechanism against an inked ribbon that physically contacts the paper.?
Several types of printers used an ink or carbon ribbon in the way you described. The daisy wheel printer and ball printer would spin a wheel that has the printable characters, then the wheel would strike the ribbon, leaving an imprint on the paper. The dot matrix printer used a number of pins that struck the ribbon to generate a printable character. The chain printer had several full sets of all printable characters on a long chain, and the chain spun rapidly on a track. As the appropriate printable character arrived at the proper location, a high speed solenoid driven hammer struck the chain, causing the ribbon to leave an imprint on the paper.
