OUTPUT DEVICES

All the input and processing in the world won't do us any good unless we can get the information back from the computer in a comprehensible and usable form.
• Printer
Generates a "hard copy" of information. Includes dot matrix, ink jet, and laser varieties.

• Monitor
The primary output device. Visually displays text and graphics.

• Plotter
Similar to a printer, but uses pens to draw an image. Most often used with graphics or drawing programs for very large drawings.

• Speakers
Reproduce sound. Optional high-quality speakers can be added to provide improved output from games and multimedia software.
