Which of the following statements best describe the features of a network printer?
Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose two.
A.
Anyone in the network can use it to print only if the machine to which the printer is connected is
switched on.
B.
It is shared by more than one computer.
C.
Print jobs can be sent only by the computer that is directly connected to the printer.
D.
It is connected directly to a computer.
Explanation:
A local printer is connected directly to a computer. On the local printer, print jobs can be sent only
by the computer that is directly connected to the printer. A network printer, on the other hand, is
one that is shared by more than one computers. If the printer is shared, the printer becomes a
network printer to those machines connected on the network. However, users of other computers in
the network will be able to print to that printer only if the machine to which printer is connected is
switched on.
