Usage Note
Printer is an English loanword used informally in Italian for a computer printer, though the officially preferred Italian term is stampante (f). Printer is masculine and invariable (il printer, i printer). In formal writing or official contexts, stampante is preferred; in everyday tech speech both are heard, with stampante being more widespread and unambiguous.
Examples
"Il printer ha finito la carta."
