What prints by stiking an inked ribbon against the paper?

The process of printing by striking an inked ribbon against paper is commonly associated with typewriters and impact printers. In this method, the ribbon is coated with ink, and when a key is pressed, a metal type or print head strikes the ribbon, transferring ink onto the paper to create text or images. This technique contrasts with modern inkjet or laser printers, which use different methods to apply ink or toner.
