  1. CIS 102 Introduction to Hardware and Software Chapter 2 Input and Outputpart 1 – input devices and printers

  2. Connection Type

  3. Types of Printers • An impact printer forms characters and graphics on a printed page by using some mechanism that physically contacts the paper • A non-impact printer forms characters and graphics without using a mechanism that physically contacts the paper Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  4. Multifunction Peripherals • A multifunction peripheral (MFP) is a single device that servers several functions, including printing • Scanner • Fax machine • Copier • Best practice is to purchase one machine for one purpose Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  5. All-In-One Printer (cont.) • Notes continued from previous slide.

  6. Ink-jet Printers • An ink-jet printer is a non-impact printer that forms characters and graphics by spraying tiny drops of liquid ink onto the paper • Most ink-jet printers range from 300 to 2400 dpi Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  9. Laser Printers • A laser printer is a high-speed, high-quality, non-impact printer that operates in a manner similar to a copy machine, creating images using a laser beam and powdered ink Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  10. How a Laser Printer Works Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  11. Toner

  12. Printer languages

  13. Thermal Printers, Solid Ink Printers, and Photo Printers • A thermal printer uses wax-based ink that is heated by pins that melt the ink onto paper • A dye-sublimation printer uses solid dyes embedded on different transparent films • A solid ink printer uses ink stored in solid blocks • A photo printer is a color printer that can print photographs at a quality equal to photos developed at a photo lab Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  16. Speed

  17. Sheet capacity

  18. Printer memory

  19. Paper type

  20. How Windows Handles Print Jobs Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  21. Local and Network Printers • A local printer is connected directly to a computer by way of a wireless connection or by a cable that connects to a parallel, serial, USB, SCSI, or FireWire port • A network printer is a device that can be connected to a network and is accessible to a computer by way of a network • The default printer is the one Windows prints to unless another printer is selected Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  22. Installing a Local Printer Using a Cable • Physically attach the printer cable to the computer • Install the printer driver, either by having Windows install the driver or by using the printer manufacturer’s installation software • If your printer came with printer management software, install it • Print a test page to confirm that the driver is installed properly Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  23. Installing a Local Printer Using a Wireless Connection Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  24. Installing a Local Printer Using a Bluetooth Wireless Connection • Turn the printer off • Install the printer drivers using the manufacturer’s installation software • If you are using a wireless Bluetooth printing kit, • Plug the Bluetooth adapter into the USB port or insert it into the PC Card slot on the computer • Connect the printer adapter to the printer’s parallel port and, if needed, connect the power supply and plug it in. • Turn the printer on • Print a test page Chapter 7: Supporting Printers

  25. Printer Maintenance • Ensure that the consumables (paper, ink, ribbons, color sticks, toner cartridges, and ink cartridges) are on hand • Research the printer documentation for specific maintenance procedures and how often you should perform them • Printer maintenance kit • Clean the printer with a damp cloth on the outside and a dry cloth on the inside Chapter 7: Supporting Printers
