Grade8D Digital Design Class: Reaserch on difference types of printers

3D Desigm and Modeling- Inquiry and Analyzing

Johann Gutenberg invented the printing press in the 1450. The first book that was printed was in Mainz, Germany and it was a bible in Latin that was very beautiful as it had later been mimicked by other people by hand. Though he had made one of the best inventions till day he had a few unwanted business partners that captured over all of his work and left him in a very poor state. Even after all of these incidents we were still able to make replicas and modified versions of the printer and because of Johann we are able to successfully print all types of books and documents. Because of this invention we are able to develop his ideas and make all sorts of new computers.

Printers are separated into two groups; impact and non impact. impact printers make comtact with the paper while printing, they use hammers or pins to print the image. On the other hand non impact printers don't use any pins or hammers and that is why they are very quiet.
