A device driver is a small program that tells the operating system how to communicate with a device.
- A device driver is a small piece of software that describes how to communicate with hardware to the operating system and other software.
- For example, printer drivers instruct the operating system, and thus whatever software the thing you want to print is open in, how to print data on the page.
- A software programme can provide information to a driver that describes what it wants a piece of hardware to do, information that the device driver understands and can then put into action with the hardware.
