Output Units Monitors (Computer Screens ) It displays the text, information and pictures. They are different in sizes, resolution and color. Types of monitors: 1 - Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) 2 - Flat-Panel Display Technologies include : liquid crystal display (LCD), plasma displays. 27

Output Units Printers -It is used to print the information or output of computers

Output Units Printers -It is used to print the information or output of computers on papers. Printer Type 1 - Daisy wheel characters are raised on the wheel , which strike the ribbon placed between them and the paper. (noisy and slow and produce carbon copies) 2 -Dot matrix 28

Output Units 2 -Dot matrix use the pins to strike on an inked ribbon

Output Units 2 -Dot matrix use the pins to strike on an inked ribbon against paper. (inexpensive, produce carbon copies) 3 -Inkjet spray one or more colors of small droplets of ink at high speed onto paper. and its running cost is high. (carbon copies can’t be produced). (use one color or multiple colors) 29

Output Units 4 -Laser printer use a laser beam source to create a dot-like

Output Units 4 -Laser printer use a laser beam source to create a dot-like images on a drum. And these image treated magnetically charged inklike toner and transferred from drum to paper. (high quality, used for heavy use, expensive, can’t produce carbon copies) 30
