Are ink-jet printers nonimpact printers?

Yes, inkjet printers are classified as non-impact printers. This means they don’t physically strike the paper to produce text or images. Instead, they use tiny nozzles to spray ink directly onto the paper in a precise and controlled manner. This method allows for quieter operation and high-quality prints, especially when it comes to color images, photos, and detailed graphics. Inkjet printers are widely used in homes and offices because of their ability to deliver professional results without the noise or mechanical complexity of traditional impact printers like dot matrix models.

Why ink jet is the most important printer in home user?

Inkjet printers are fairly cheap, though the ink cartridges can prove expensive, depending on heavy or light usage, of course. Inkjet printers are usually easy to maintain and clean. The main problem, especially if the printer isn't used very often, is drying ink blocking the print-head, etc. Personally, I prefer my mono laser printer, but then I don't want to do colour printing anyway.
