Why buy an impact printer? An impact printer has several advantages over any other type of printer:
Low cost — both in purchase price and low cost of ownership
Flexible paper handling — only impact printers can handle multi-part forms and multiple paper paths
that can all have paper loaded and waiting.
Reliability — EPSON impact printers are renowned for their reliability with tireless printheads and
superior quality ribbons.
Impact printers are either 9- or 24-pin, which determines the type of printing and the number of multi-part
forms that the printer are capable of printing.
Nine-pin impact printers — These printers have the sturdiest printhead pins which:
Hit the paper hard to make impressions through the thickest multi-part forms
Offer the fastest print speeds
Print from High Speed Draft up to Near Letter Quality
Twenty-four-pin impact printers — These printers have finer printhead pins which:
Hit the paper less hard to make impressions through most multi-part forms
Offer finer Letter Quality printing
Print from High Speed Draft up to Letter Quality
The name of an EPSON's impact printer tells you if it is a 9- or a 24-pin printer, and whether it has a narrow
or wide carriage:
Nine-pin printers all begin with FX, LX, or DFX
Twenty-four pin printers all begin with LQ
Wide carriage printers have 4 number in their names
