Answer Description

The print head in impact printers strikes against a ribbon to transfer the ink onto the paper in the form of characters or images. Unlike ink cartridges used in inkjet printers that spray ink through nozzles or the use of heating elements in thermal printers, the print head in an impact printer physically impacts the ribbon to produce the printout.
