Which type of printer uses a ribbon that contains wax based ink?
Thermal Transfer: This type of printer uses a thermal transfer ribbon that contains wax-based ink. Heat is applied to the ribbon using a thermal print head (same as in a direct thermal printer) that melts the ink transferring it to the paper or film substrate (label stock where it becomes permanent).
Why is my printer printing missing lines?
A possible fix for the missing lines error can be replacing the ink cartridges of your printer. The missing lines may be occurring because of an issue in the printer’s cartridges. The old cartridges may be damaged or expended due to overuse. Hence, you are encountering missing lines while printing.
What do I do when my printer prints with lines?

- Look to see if there is a line on the imaging drum of the print cartridge.
- Replace the defective print cartridge with a new one.
- Place the print cartridge back in the machine.
Which type of printer allows for printing on multipart forms?
When printing multipart forms, you need to use an impact printer to speed up the printing process as well as to ensure that each form within the multipart packet is imprinted properly. Impact printers are also known as dot matrix printers and are compatible with a variety of PC and Mac systems.
What are Printwires in dot matrix printers?
printwires. Grid of tiny pins in a dot-matrix printer that stike an inked printer ribbon to produce images on paper.
Which type of printer uses a physical mechanism that contacts a ribbon and presses it against a piece of paper?

Where does the rendering of a print job take place?
Print jobs are either rendered as they are created, or they are written to a spool file as EMF records. In the case of EMF records, rendering takes place when the EMF print processor (localspl.dll) plays back the records.
How does client side rendering work in Windows?
An end-user can now spool a print job to a remote printer even if they are not connected to the print server that hosts the printer. The client-side rendering feature makes it possible for a user to spool and render a print job locally.
Which is responsible for rendering the image to the printer?
The printer graphics DLL is responsible for sending the rendered image (that is, the contents of the drawing surface) to the printer at appropriate times (by calling EngWritePrinter ), as follows: The drawing surface is a GDI-supplied or driver-supplied bitmap.
When to call the createdc function to create a printer?
When an application calls the CreateDC function to create a printer device context, GDI checks to see if the appropriate printer graphics DLL is loaded. If it is not, GDI loads the DLL and calls the DrvEnableDriver function in the DLL. The function is not called again unless the driver is reloaded.
