Plotters are specialized printers used for producing large-scale graphics, drawings, and designs, often utilized in fields like engineering and architecture. They work by moving a pen or other writing instrument across the surface of the paper to create precise lines and curves. Daisy wheel printers, on the other hand, are impact printers that use a rotating wheel with characters (like a typewriter) to print text, producing high-quality output primarily for documents. While plotters excel in rendering detailed graphical information, daisy wheel printers are known for their clarity in text printing.
What else can I help you with?
Does daisy wheel printers spray ink on the paper to form characters?
No, daisy wheel printers do not spray ink on the paper. Instead, they use a rotating wheel with characters molded on its tips that strikes an inked ribbon against the paper to create characters. When the wheel rotates to the desired character, it hits the ribbon, transferring ink onto the paper to form the print. This mechanical striking method distinguishes daisy wheel printers from inkjet printers, which spray ink directly.

Why daisy wheel printers are not used today?
Probably because people wanted more flexibility from their printers. Daisy-wheel printers are limited to the character set on the wheel. If you want a different font, you need to physically change the wheel for a different one. Dot matrix printers cured that by using tiny pins striking through an ink ribbon. However - their downfall was that they could only print in one colour (again unless you changed the ribbon). Inkjet printers have multi-colour cartridges - enabling them to combine red, yellow, blue and black ink into millions of different colours.
Which printer type uses small hammers to strike against the paper to leave an image?
