What is a Printer Roller

What are printer drivers, and why are they important to your printer’s daily operation? 

If you’re like most people, you probably don’t know what a printer driver is and what role they play in the functioning of a printer/copier. 

Printer drivers play an essential role in the performance of your office machine and could end up being the root of the problem if your printer is malfunctioning. 

Understanding printer drivers is essential for ensuring your printer operates smoothly. Printer drivers are like translators, converting data into a format that the printer can understand and process. Without the right driver, your printer won't function properly.
