Printers

In computing, a printer is a peripheral which produces a hard copy, a permanent readable tex or graphics of documents stored in electronic form, on a papers or transperancies. Printers are used as local peripherals attached by a printer cable to a computer which serves as a document source. Some printers, commonly known as network printers, have built-in netword interfaces and can serve as a hardcopy device for any user on the network. Individual printers are often designed to support both local and network connected users at the same time.Printers are designed for low-volume, short-turnaround print jobs; requiring virtually no setup time to achieve a hard copy of a given document.Solid ink printers, Liquid inkjet printers, Dot-matrix printers, Line printers are some of the types of printers of modern times.

Energy Efficient Chips from Intel

Intel energy-efficient processors for laptops. Intel Corporation has launched four varieties of processors: - an ultra-low-voltage 1.1GHz Pentium M, an ultra-low-voltage 900MHz Celeron M, a low-voltage 1.3GHz Pentium M, and a standard 1.4GHz Celeron M.

Intel updated the latest chips on the lines of energy efficienct processors geared towards small, light weight notebooks.

The energy efficient chips have low clock speeds, but they use least power of any of Intel's notebook chips. Manufactures typically use these chips in their thinnest, lightest models. Because the chips consume less power, they produce less heat, thus allowing companies to put them into thinner chassis and enabling them to use smaller batteries, which reduces weight.

Intel separates its chips by price and performance. The Pentium M offers the best performance and lots of features, while the Celeron M costs less, helping PC makers to deliver lower-priced notebooks and tablets.
