 Monitor
 Scanner
 Printer
Input Devices

 “An electromechanical device that can be used to enter data and


instructions into a computer.”
Input Devices

 Types of input devices:


 Keyboard
 Mouse
 Scanner
 Touch Screen
 Microphone
Keyboard

 Keyboard is used to enter data or input to a computer.


 Types:
 The Standard Keyboard Layout
 Ergonomic Keyboards
 How a Keyboard Works
Keyboard

 Standard Keyboard:
 A standard computer keyboard has about 100 keys.
 Most keyboards use the QWERTY layout, named for the first
six keys in the top row of letters.
Keyboard

 Standard Keyboard:
 Most keyboards have keys arranged in five groups:
1. Alphanumeric keys
2. Numeric keypad
3. Function keys
4. Modifier keys
5. Cursor-movement keys

Keyboard

 Ergonomic Keyboard:
 Long periods of keyboard use can cause injuries.
 An ergonomically correct keyboard can help you avoid injuries.
 You also can avoid injuries by adopting correct keyboarding
practices.
How a Keyboard works?

 Test
Mouse

 The mouse is a pointing device. You use it to move a graphical


pointer on the screen.
 The mouse can be used to issue commands, draw, and perform
other types of input tasks.
 Mouse Techniques:
 Pointing;
 Clicking;
 Double-clicking;
 Dragging;
 Right-clicking;
Types of Mouse

 There are various types of mouse:


 Trackballs
 Trackpads
 Integrated Pointed Devices
Trackball Mouse

 A trackball is like a mouse turned upside-down.


 Use your thumb to move the exposed ball and your fingers to press
the buttons.
 Many styles of trackball are available.
Trackpad Mouse

 A trackpad is a touch-sensitive pad that provides the same


functionality as a mouse.
 To use a trackpad, you glide
your finger across its surface.
 Trackpad provide a set of
buttons that function like
mouse buttons.
Integrated Pointing Device

 An integrated pointing device is a small joystick built into the


keyboard.
 To use an integrated pointing device, you move the joystick.
 These devices provide a set of buttons that function like mouse
buttons
Scanners

 “optical input devices that uses light as a source of input. They


eliminate the need for manual entry of data, thus accuracy
increases.
 “scanners can be used to copy the
image or text on paper into a digital
format that can be used by the
computer.”
Touch Screen

 A touchscreen is a display device that allows the user to interact


with a computer by using their finger. They can be quite useful as
an alternative to a mouse or keyboard for navigating a graphical
user interface (GUI).
 Touchscreens are used on a variety of devices such as computer
and laptop monitors, smartphones, tablets and cash registers.
Microphone

 Microphone is a type of Audio input device which come with


different types in (Mobiles, Laptops, Tablets, Desktops)
Output Devices

 Output devices are those which represents/displays the result of our


command for us.

 Some basic output devices are as follows:


 Monitors
 Loudspeakers
 Touch Screen
 Printer
Monitors

 Monitor is the basic output device which displays the result of a


task graphically on a screen.
 There are two main types of monitors:
 CRT (Cathode Ray Tube)
 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
 LED (Light-Emitting Diodes)
Monitors: CRT

 Traditional television-set-like monitor


 Used in manufacturing of televisions
 Flat screen CRT are available now
 Large size
 Cost effective
 Consumes more power
 Can produce more colors
Monitors: LCD

 Also known as Liquid Crystal Diode


 Advance technology
 Light-weight and don’t consume more space
 Consumes less energy and can be run by Battery as well
 Expensive
 Image quality is not constant if viewed from different angles
Monitors: LED

 Don’t produce heat while running


 Consume much lesser power than LCD
 High quality display
 The latest monitors
Loud Speakers

 Loud speakers are the basic output devices which show the result
of an operation in the form of sound
 Speakers can be:
 built-in
 External
Printers

 Printer is an output device which converts the soft copy of files


into the hard copy.
 Types (usage):
 Local Printers
 Network Printers
Printers

 Network Printer:
 Shared from once machine to other through the network so
multiple users can use it at the same time.
 Local Printer:
 Can be used only by one machine.
Types of Printers

Printers

Impact Printers
Non-Impact Printers

Daisy Dot-
wheel Matrix Inkjet Laser
Thermal
Printers: Impact Printers

 These printers have a mechanism that touches the paper to create


an image.
 These printers work by banging a print head containing a number
of metal pins which strike an inked ribbon placed between the
print head and the paper.
Printers: Dot Matrix Printers

 The term dot matrix refers to the process of placing dots to form an
image.
 Its speed is usually 30 to 550 characters per second (cps).
 This is the cheapest and the
most noisy printer and has a
low print quality. Dot Matrix
were 1st introduced by
Centronics in 1970.
Printers: Dot Matrix Printers

 Advantages:
(1) In-expensive.
(2) Low per page cost.
(3) Energy efficient.
 Dis-advantages:
(1) Noisy
(2) Low resolution
(3) Limited fonts flexibility
(4) Poor quality graphics output.
Printers: Daisy Wheel Printers

 A daisy wheel printer is basically an impact printer consisting of a wheel


and attached extensions on which molded metal characters are mounted.
 A daisy wheel printer produces letter quality print and it can’t produce
graphics output.
Printers: Ink-Jet Printers

 It is a non-impact printer producing a high quality print. A


standard Inkjet printer has a resolution of 300-720 dpi. (dot per
inch)
 1-6 ppm
 Newer models have further improved dpi. Inkjet printers were
introduced in the later half of 1980s and are very popular owing to
their extra-ordinary performance.
Printers: Ink-Jet Printers

 Advantages:
 (1) High resolution output.
 (2) Energy efficient.
 (3) Many options to select.
 Dis-advantages:
 (1) Expensive.
 (2) Special paper required for higher resolution output.
 (3) Time consuming in case of graphics printing.
Printers: Ink-Jet Printers
Printers: Thermal Printers

 Thermal printers are in-expensive printers mostly used in fax


machines. The Thermal printers are further classified into two
types.
 (1) Electro thermal printers:
 (2) Thermal Wax printers:
Printers: Laser Printer

 Laser printers use very advanced technology and produce a high


quality output. Laser printers can also produce high quality
graphics images.
 Resolution is 300 to 1200dpi.
 4-32 ppm
 Very expensive compare to Inkjet printer
Printers: Multi-Function Printers

 A multi function printer abbreviated as MFP is an all purpose


device that prints, faxes, copies and scans.
 A single multi function printer can replace several bulky devices.
A multi function printer is also known as AIO (all in one ).
 These printers use inkjet technology and provide high quality print
but at slow speed.
