Wipro’s Dot-matrix Printer

LQ 1050 + DX Gold is an upgraded version of Wipro’s largest selling printer LQ 1050 + DX. It has a 24-pin 136-column printer that supports a speed of 360 cps. All new printers from Wipro have the Auto Share feature, which lets you connect the printer to two stand-alone PCs–one via the parallel port and the other through the serial port. The printer automatically detects which PC is issuing the print command, and then prints accordingly. No switches or special changes in the control program are needed to handle this.

This printer supports eight Indian languages–up to three at a time. Of these languages, two are English and Hindi. The third is a language of your choice–Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, Gujarati, Marathi, or Bengali. The fonts that you choose, are downloaded to the printer. Thus, it’s not an image that’s printed, as in the case of some other language printers.

The printer supports nine fonts and has a 64 kB buffer. Like other Wipro printers, this one also lets you know when the printer needs to have preventive maintenance done. With a true-auto load for the friction/tractor paper path, it is meant for those who need good quality printing, in different languages. Small businesses like those into horoscopes and organizations dealing with land records and railway tickets will find this printer useful. The DX Gold is priced at
Rs 17,750.

If you’re looking for a printer that supports five paper paths with the same capabilities as the DX Gold, Wipro has the LQ 2090, which is priced at Rs 18,500.
