Line Matrix Printing Unlike moving–head dot matrix printers, Printronix P3000 Series printers create graphics and charac- ters by printing an entire dot row at one time. As shown in Figure 1–2, dots are printed in both direc- tions of shuttle travel at a printer stroke length of .4 inches to print through several character positions in 10 pitch Data Processing print mode. By printing a row of dots, line matrix printers achieve higher print duty cycles than moving head dot matrix (serial) printe
