Some Technologies Refuse to Die
Wilson Quarterly: “Take dot-matrix printers. Their heyday was in the 1980s, before ink-jet and laser printers came along. Most personal computer users today probably assume that the clickety dot-matrix machines are heard no more. But in fact they’re alive and well, operating under a new, jazzier name (‘impact printing’) and functioning as an industrial tool. ‘For accounting firms, banks, and pharmacies with reams of data to print out (and for whom speed, reliability, and economy actually count for more than looks), dot-matrix—er, impact—printing still works,’ writes Scigliano. ‘Small wonder: Today’s impact rigs can print up to 2,000 lines a minute, over 500,000 pages a month, for less than a fifth of a cent per page—versus 1 cent per page and up for ink-jet and laser printers.’”
