A printer is a device which prints your text or graphics in paper.
The output on paper is calles print-out or hard copy.
A program in your computer, called the printer driver converts data into a form that your printer can understand.
A printer spooler stores files to be printed when the printer is ready. It lets you change the order of documents in the queue and cancel specific print jobs.
The output quality, or resolution , is measured in dpi or dots per inch.
The speed of your printer is measured in (ppm) pages per minute .
In a network, users can share a printer connected to a print server, a computer that stores the files waiting to be printed.
The differences in resolution are noticeable:the more dots per inch, the clearer the image.
In computers, a printer driver is a programe installed to control a particular type of printer.
Passengers with an electronic ticket will need a print-out of ticket confirmation or a boarding pass to be admitted to secured gate areas.
With appropriate software, you can view the images on a computer, manipulate them, or send them to your print and produce excellent quality colour copies.
A print printer spooler is a utility that organizes and arranges any documents waiting to be printed.
The key advance of recent years is printing speed: the latest generation of ink-jets prints black-and-white text at 15 pages per minute.
A print resolution of between 600 dpi and 2,400 dpi ensured that even text as small as 2 pt was legible.
A print server is a dedicated computer that connects a printer to a network. It enables users to share printing resources.
