Overview

Printing is the process of taking text, documents or photos from a computer and putting them onto a paper using a device called printer.

Printer interface

To print something, you need to establish a connection from the computer to the printer. This can be done through a cable or wireless using Wi-Fi. In the old days, printers used a big port called parallel port. Now most of the printers have a USB type-B port.

The easiest way to print something is using the parallel port because you don't need to have anything else than ports set-up for it to work.
