  Daisy wheel printer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A daisy wheel printer is a type of computer printer that produces high-quality type, and is often referred to as a letter-quality printer (this in contrast to high-quality dot matrix printers, capable of near-letter-quality, or NLQ, output).
In many respects the daisy wheel is similar to a standard typewriter in the way it forms its letters on the page, differing only in the details of the mechanism (daisy wheel vs typebars or the typeball used on IBM Selectric typewriters).
Daisy wheel printers were fairly common in the 1980s, but were always less popular than dot matrix printers (ballistic wire printers) due to the latter's ability to print graphics and different fonts.
