Which of the following is a function that a printer does NOT perform?

The function that a printer does not perform is faxing information. Printers are designed primarily for the purpose of producing written or visual material on paper, which involves using physical media such as toner or ink (as indicated in the first option) and requires loading paper (as noted in another option). Additionally, printers can be connected to computers or networks to receive data for printing, and they may have features to create forms if equipped with the necessary software capabilities.

However, the act of faxing is separate from printing. Fax machines are the devices specifically designed to send and receive documents over a telephone line. While some multifunction devices combine printing, scanning, copying, and faxing capabilities, a standard printer by itself does not have the functionality to fax. Therefore, indicating that a printer faxes information aligns with a misunderstanding of its basic functions.
