Here's why:
* Hard drives are storage devices. They store data in the form of files, programs, and operating systems.
* Printers are output devices. They receive data from a computer and physically print it onto paper.
Think of it this way:
* A hard drive is like a library, storing information for later use.
* A printer is like a book publisher, taking the information and creating a physical copy.
While printers might have some small amount of memory to store print jobs temporarily, they are not designed for long-term data storage like a hard drive.
