Which of the following is an example of a spooled device?
Correct Answer: B
Question 44 Explanation:
Spooling is a technique in which an intermediate device such as disk is interposed between process and low speed i/o device.
For example in printer if a process attempt to print a document but printer is busy printing
another document, the process, instead of waiting for printer to become available, write its output to disk. When the printer becomes available the data on disk is printed.
Spooling allows process to request operation from peripheral device without requiring that the device is ready to service the request.
