Across 1. Any Hardware component that allows users to enter data and instructions into a computer. 6. Handheld input device that can detect the presence of light. 7. how fast the printer speed makes the lines per minute and page per minute. 12. Output device that takes the text and images displaying on a PC screen and projects on a larger screen so an audience can see image clearly. 15. small, flat, rectangular pointing device that is sensitive to pressure and motion. 17. Flat, rectangular, electronic, plastic board that is used to create drawings and sketches. 18. The number of horizontal and vertical pixels in a display device. 21. Type of printer that forms characters and graphics on paper by striking an ink ribbon that physically contacts paper. 23. Display device that is packaged as a separate peripheral. 27. Type of light-sensing input device that scans a document and creates a file in memory instead of paper copy. 29. Steering wheel type input device that is used to simulate driving a vehicle. 30. Component of a computer that produces music, speech, or other sounds such as beeps. 32. Impact printer that produces printed images when tiny wires pins on a print heard mechanism strike an inked ribbon. 35. Output device that visually conveys text, graphics, and video information. 38. Any hardware component that conveys information to one or more people. 40. Touch sensitive display device with which users interact by touching areas of the screen. 41. Reading device that reads the magnetic stripe on the back of credit, entertainment ,bank, and other similar cards. Also called Magstripe reader. 42. Display device that uses gas plasma technology, which sandwiches a layer of gas between two glass plates. 43. Pointing device that fits comfortably under the palm of a user's hand. 44. Type of desktop monitor that contains a cathode-ray tube. 45. Type of high-speed, high-quality nonimpact printer that creates images using a laser beam and powdered ink called toner. 46. Reading device that converts MICR characters into a form that a computer can process. 47. Optical character recognition devices that include small optical scanners for reading characters and sophisticated software to analyze what is read. 48. Input device that contains keys users press to enter data and instructions into a computer.

Down 2. Type of nonimpact printer that generates images by pushing electrically heated pins against heat-sensitive paper. 3. Type of nonimpact printer that forms characters and graphics by spraying tiny drops of liquid ink on a piece of paper. 4. Short for radio frequency identification; protocol that defines how a network uses radio signals to communicate with a tag placed in or attached to an object. 5. Type of high-speed impact printer that prints an entire line at a time. 8. Card similar in size to an ATM card that stores data on a thin microprocessor imbedded in the card. 9. Audio output device that rests inside ear canal. 10. Input device that allows users to write or draw on the screen. 11. Pointing device used for games or flight/driving simulations that is a vertical lever mounted on a base. 13. Computers capability of distinguishing spoken words. 14. Small metal or plastic device that looks like a ballpoint pen that use pressure instead of ink to write. 16. (Optical Mark Recognition) Optical reader technology that reads hand-drawn marks such as small circles or rectangles. 19. Type of printer that forms characters and graphics on a piece of paper without actually striking the paper. 20. Output device that looks like a copy machine but provides the functionality of a printer, scanner, copy machine, and perhaps a fax machine. 22. (LCD) Type of display that uses a liquid compound to present information on a display device. 24. Biometric device that captures curves and indentations of a finger-print and compares them with a stored image. 25. Stationary pointing device with a ball on its top or side. 26. Desktop monitor that uses a liquid crystal display instead of a cathode-ray tube to produce images on a screen, resulting in a sharp, flicker-free display. Also called a flat-panel monitor. 28. Meeting between two or more geographically separated people who use a network or the internet to transmit audio and video data. 29. Digital video camera enables users to capture video, still images, e-mails, video attachments, add live messages over the internet and make video phone. 31. Optical reader (laser beams) to read bar codes by using light pattern. 32. Camera that stores photo images digitally. 33. Input device that allows a user to control a pointer on the screen. 34. Sophisticated printers that produce high-quality drawings such as blueprints, maps, and circuit diagrams using rows of charged wires (called styli) to draw an electrostatic pattern on specially coated paper and then fuse toner to the pattern. 36. Type of Nonimpact color printer that produces photo lab quality pictures. 37. Process of entering any sound into the computer. 39. Audio output devices that generate sound.
