GDI printer Last modified: Thursday, August 30, 2001  A printer that has built-in support for Windows Graphical Device Interface (GDI). GDI is used by most Windows applications to display images on a monitor, so when printing from a Windows application to a GDI printer, there is no need to convert the output to another format such as PostScript or PCL. GDI printers are sometimes called host-based printers because they rely on the host computer to rasterize pages.   PC Review of Windows printers This article, from October 1996, describes the benefits of GDI printers, with numerous links to related articles.
