The overall impact of evolving output media on the design and creation of graphic images can only be a good thing. The new technologies involved in creating and viewing graphic images mean that images today are much more clear and life-like. The introduction of "next-gen" gaming meant output media needed to stay one step ahead, monitors have always had the capabilities to play whatever you can throw at them, but the last few generations of monitor have concentrated on size and price, meaning the next-gen gamers werent getting the quality of images console gamers got on TVs. In the last few years however, monitors have been made with picture quality first, this has kept them one step ahead of TVs, not just in price, but quality.
Printers have always been expensive if you wanted to get the kind of picture your happy with. The prices would jump massivly for a short increase in quality, so if people wanted real quality the only option was to get them printed elsewhere, usually their local library. Printer quality has always been there, but the last generation has seen printers evolve into a scanner, colour copier and a fax machine all in one. This is great if you happen to need all of those features, if not then you will find yourself paying the same amount for just the printer of the same quality. With all these new features comes a new, much more advanced way of using it. The options to you are endless, but only if you can get it working atall. All this means The design and creation of graphic images is left to the side, and it seems the only issue is price.
