Question

URGENT!!! A networked scanner is a type of _____.
a. groupware
b. peripheral
c. server
d. shared drive

Answer 1

It's either c. or d. I searched them both and evidence shows they kind of both are networked scanner.

Answer 2

only a drive can be a shared drive, and a scanner is not a drive. It's also not typically a server, though a lot of networked peripherals serve their own web interface to the network, the interface isn't the purpose of the device though, so it would definitely be B.

Answer 3

Correction, only a drive or a portion of a drive can be a shared drive, as you can map folders on a drive to a drive letter

Answer 4

The correct answer is B. Scanner and printers fall into this category, whether on network or stand alone items. Another way to look at this type of equipment item is an accessory item or add on items.
