Technical Features
Printers are hardware devices that come in many different versions, all designed to print text and graphics on paper. The most common forms and their descriptions are listed below: DESKTOP: Any printer designed to sit flat on any surface, such as a desk, table or stand. STATIONARY: These printers are similar to desktop versions but are non-portable. PORTABLE: These printers are ones that can be carried around. They can be as small as a handheld printer, or as big as a photo printer, designed to print copies of photos taken by a digital camera. HANDHELD: Such printers can fit in the palm of a person’s hand. They are used to print out small notes and graphics, receipts, business cards, and other necessary items when a person is away from their desktop or stationary printer.
