Output Devices

 

Printer

In computers, a printer is a device that accepts text and graphic output from a computer and transfers the information to paper, usually to standard size sheets of paper. Printers are sometimes sold with computers, but more frequently are purchased separately. Printers vary in size, speed, sophistication, and cost. In general, more expensive printers are used for higher-resolution color printing.

 

 

 

Monitor

 The only and major purpose of a monitor in a computer system is to display text and graphics, which are produced by the computer. The monitor is actually referred to as an output device, since it helps in displaying the already processed information to the user.

 

 

 

 

Speakers

 Speakers are one of the most common output devices used with computer systems. Some speakers are designed to work specifically with computers, while others can be hooked up to any type of sound system. Regardless of their design, the purpose of speakers is to produce audio output that can be heard by the listener.
