Port replicators
Although you can attach devices directly to your
notebook, a port replicator lets you make all of
those connections at one time. When you travel
with your notebook, you merely disconnect from
the port replicator instead of unplugging all the
devices.
A port replicator also provides additional ports
and other expansion features not included with
your notebook. See the user guide for the port
replicator for more information about using a
port replicator with your notebook.
Printers
You can attach almost any type of printer to your
notebook. The most common types are inkjet
and laser printers, which print in color or black
and white.
Inkjet printers and cartridges are relatively
inexpensive, but they are slower than laser
printers. Using an inkjet color printer, you can
print pictures, banners, and greeting cards, as
well as documents.
Laser printers and cartridges are more
expensive, but they print much faster than inkjet
printers. Laser printers are better than inkjet
printers when you are printing large documents.
USB flash drive
Use a USB flash drive for storing files or
transferring files to another computer.
