BACKGROUND
Printing passed copying as the primary method of
reproducing documents years ago. Today, printing is just

addition, many devices provide a selection of optional
connectivity choices such as Wireless 802.11b or g (g is
the faster, preferred standard), Bluetooth for cell phone or
PDA connectivity, PictBridge photo printing for printing
directly from a digital camera, and FireWire for high-speed
local connectivity.
