It's not surprising
that most portable and panel mounted printer applications use direct thermal
print technology these days. Thermal is much faster, more reliable, silent in
operation and easier to maintain. Thanks to their popularity, thermal printers
are now cheaper than their impact dot matrix counterparts and running costs are
about the same.
Despite this, there
are still applications that demand impact printing. Whether by legislation or
personal choice, impact printout is still better for long term archiving
and is the best solution for printing multi-ply copies.
Unfortunately, more
and more manufacturers are abandoning impact technology to concentrate all of
their resources on state of the art technologies.
However, M-Tech
Printers distribute for Mylox Technologies Inc. who are not only at the
forefront of modern printer design, but are also committed to continue
supporting their partners and friends who still require dot matrix
output.
