Computer Types Unit One

A computer that processes request for HTML and other documents that are components of Web pages. Purpose is to “serve.” A computer that has the purpose of supplying its users with data; usually through the use of a LAN (Local Area Network). Server

Workstation

Desktop computer which is usually more powerful than a Microcomputer. Powerful desktop computer designed for specialized tasks. A microcomputer that fits on a desk and runs on power from an electrical wall outlet. The CPU can be housed in either a vertical or horizontal case. Has separate components (keyboard, mouse, etc.) that are each plugged into the computer. Workstation

Desktop Microcomputer Small computer based on a microprocessor. A personal computer designed to meet the needs of an individual; provides a variety of applications. Provides access to a wide variety of computing applications, such as word processing, photo editing, e-mail, and internet. Desktop Microcomputer

Portable, compact computer that runs on a wall outlet or battery unit with all components in one unit. All components (keyboard, mouse, etc.) are in one compact unit. Usually more expensive than a comparable desktop. Sometimes called a notebook. Laptop or Notebook

Tablet PC - Handheld

Handheld PC(PDA)

Smart phone - Handheld

Handheld Also called a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant). A computer that fits into a pocket, runs on batteries, and is used while holding in your hand. Typically used as an appointment book, address book, calculator, and notepad. Can be synchronized with a personal microcomputer as a backup. Handheld

Printers Two main types: Laser Ink jet Printers

Laser Printer Example Laserjet 5000 Series from Hewlett Packard Co. (http://www.hp.com) Laser Printer Example

Four steps A laser is fired in correspondence to the dots to be printed. A spinning mirror causes the dots to be fanned out across the drum. The drum rotates to the next line, usually 1000th or 1600th of an inch. The drum is photosensitive. As a result of the laser light, the drum becomes electrically charged wherever a dot is to be printed. Laser Spinning mirror Photosensitive drum How it works

Operation of a Laser Printer 2. As the drum continues to rotate, the charged part of the drum passes through a tank of black powder called toner. Toner sticks to the drum wherever the charge is present. Thus, the pattern of toner on the drum matches the image. Operation of a Laser Printer Toner

Operation of a Laser Printer 3. A sheet of paper is fed toward the drum. A charge wire coats the paper with electrical charges. When the paper contacts the drum, it picks up the toner from the drum Paper Charge wire Operation of a Laser Printer

Operation of a Laser Printer 4. As the paper rolls from the drum, it passes over a heat and pressure area known as the fusing system. The fusing system melts the toner to the paper. The printed page then exits the printer. As the same time, the surface of the drum passes over another wire, called a corona wire. This wire resets the charge on the drum, to ready it for the next page. Corona wire Fusing system Operation of a Laser Printer

Specifications ppm dpi Pages per minute Typically 4-10 ppm Dots per inch Typically 600-1200 dpi Specifications

Background Inkjet technology was developed in the 1960s First commercialized by IBM in 1976 with the 6640 printer Cannon and Hewlett Packard developed similar technology Also called bubble jet Background

Inkjet Printer Example

Three main types Flatbed Sheet-fed Handheld Scanners

How it works A scanner works by digitizing an image. A scanning mechanism consists of a light source and a row of light sensors. As light is reflected from individual points on the page, it is received by the light sensors and translated to digital signals that correspond to the brightness of each point. Colour filters can be used to produce colour images, either by providing multiple sensors or by scanning the image three times with a separate colour filter for each pass. The resolution of scanners is similar to that of printers, approximately 300-600 dpi (dots per inch). How it works
