Printers provide the means for the computer to output information in portable form. Whether a document, a photograph or even an image on canvas (for more sophisticated devices) a printer allows us to reproduce information and share it with others.
Scanners
Scanners are input devices that give the means to insert information into a computer. They can be used for visual information such as photographs or drawing, or teamed with type-reading software to import documents and translate the hard copy to text that can be edited in word processing programs.
Audio Peripherals
Audio peripherals are both input and output devices. Microphones make it possible to put our voice into the computer and onto the web, or record an instrument. They need a special jack (usually called a "stereo-mini") though better mics can be used with the proper adapters or external hardware

Video cameras work with the microphones to create a complete audio/visual input that can be edited on the computer and viewed, or uploaded to a video website. To view video, the visual output is the monitor, not considered a peripheral as it is vital to computer function.
External Drives
