A printer is a peripheral machine that accepts input from a computer and prints a document. It is used in a variety of settings, from home to office, and can be connected to a local area network (LAN) through cables or radios such as Wi-Fi.
Printers can print images, text, or a combination of both. Some printers are designed to work with portable data storage devices like tablets, and others are connected directly to a computer by a data cable. Inkjet and laser printers are the most common types.
Depending on the type of print technology, the speed of a printer can vary between 4 and 10 pages per minute. Laser printers are faster than inkjet printers.
Printers can be connected to a computer through short-range radios such as Bluetooth. They can also be connected to a LAN through a dedicated data cable.
Most modern printers are now connected using a standard USB cable. Some printers are now wirelessly connected over a Wi-Fi network.
Some printers are available with a wide range of features, including high-quality full-color laser printers and multifunctional all-in-one printers. Printers can be used for a number of applications, such as printing photographs, receipts, and school documents.
When buying a printer, make sure it is compatible with the software that you use. Depending on the type of printer you choose, you may need to install drivers.
You can buy a printer that is equipped with PostScript, an open-source language that lets you print both graphics and text. Previously, only commercial typesetting systems could offer such quality.
