Why is a dot matrix printers are not suitable for a hospital?

The printing technology (dot matrix, inkjet, laser, etc) doesn't normally limit its use, but each printing technology has specific characteristics which may prevent, or promote, use of a given technology in a given application or environment.

Dot matrix printers are fairly noisy printers and may thus be unsuitable for use near patients. However, dot matrix printers can create carbon copies, and are thus often preferred over more modern technologies such as inkjets or laser printers.

Assuming the printer can be places such that the emitted noise doesn't impact patients, a dot matrix printer may be the perfect solution even in a hospital, for example if a single printout should produce multiple copies (e.g. one for the patient's files, one for the nurses' records, etc...).

How can you find someone's instant messaging address?

Ask them or someone who knows them. I used a program called gaim on all my Linux boxes that has a feature where you can search for someone's sn by typing in their email address. It works great.

I now have yet another computer, this time with the latest windows installed. (I actually stopped using windows in the mid 90's for security reasons, but now need one for `backward compatability' - my new employer requires that I run his windows software.) I've already installed some Unix utilities ported from Unix & Linux to make using such a crappy operating system easier & more flexable to use, and it got me thinking, so I Googled "gaim for windows" and was taken to a page providing a version that has been ported to windows, (it's now renamed to "Pidgin".) I installed it on my poor windows box, and found that it works as well as it did in Linux. Now I can find my friend's screennames even though I'm using an overpriced, underfeatured, virus-prone, insecure, Micro$oft computer! So I'm happy.

What determines the location of the origin or datum from which all the edges and features of and object are dimensioned?

To a certain extent, it is arbitrary. The designer chooses based on: -practicality of measuring from datums or origins -critical faces, surfaces, or dimensions -application.

How do i switch phones with a CDMA phone?

This cannot be done unless you change the hardware itself. CDMA and GSM are two different technologies used by the carriers and it's a difference in the hardware that makes it not possible for you to convert a CDMA phone on GSM, or vice versa.

i just bought a htc evo 4g and its a cdma phone.I am taking it along with me to Europe and i know it may not be used there,but a friend of mine told me it could be converted to gsm only if a space behind the phone can be created and also other features would be formated before i start using it.so i think cdma could be converted to gsm

Which type of port is used for low speed dot matrix printers?

Traditionally the DB25 parallel port and DB9 serial ports are associated with low speed matrix printers. Special printers are used for printing matrixlike prints such as cash register receipts, which typically are printed using a thermal technology which is almost infinitely quiet compared to a matrix printer. With a dot matrix printer using a typerwriter approach the noise you hear is mostly the actual printing, but with thermal and other technologies like Jet Ink the same type of print can be made using less noise. With newer technologies the connection ports often do not differ much, but there is a tendency in the direction using USB ports instead.

Perhaps one day a printing device can only be connected to one type of port, call it PortX, of which there are many on the computers. When the same port type can beused for most things you can add anything in sufficient numbers to a computer if you need it. Back in the old days you could only have one keyboard (PS/2) and one mouse (DB9), one printer (DB25) and one graphics display (DB15). Today you can have all of those on USB and if you need more just add one as long as you have available USB ports.
