In this note, we characterize quasi-Frobenius rings by a weakened form of the usual condition, that every ideal is an annihilator ideal.

We then apply this result to pure rings in the sense of Cohn and to dominant rings, a concept arising in the study of ring epimorphisms. All rings considered have a unit element.
