In what situations that the impact printer is a better choice than the non-impact 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.
