Functions:
A device driver processes the request of an application and
then sends the instruction to the hardware device to produce
the output. This is how the display information is sent from
the operating system to the display or monitor. A device
driver typically has a configuration interface that can be
accessed so that the user can make adjustments to the
hardware device.
