Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: B

DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3) is a type of RAM commonly used in desktop computers. It is the third generation of DDR memory, and it has been widely used in various desktop systems. SODIMM (Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module) is primarily used in laptops and other compact devices. ECC (Error Correcting Code) RAM is mainly used in servers and high-end workstations to prevent data corruption. VRAM (Video Random Access Memory) is used in graphics cards. Thus, DDR3 is the most appropriate type of RAM for a desktop computer.

Question 5 of 625

Vertical streaks are appearing on the output of a laser printer. Which of the following items is the MOST likely cause?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: B

Vertical streaks on the output of a laser printer are most commonly caused by a problem with the printer's drum. The drum is a crucial component that transfers toner from the cartridge onto the paper. If it becomes damaged or worn out, it can cause toner to be improperly applied, leading to vertical streaks on printed output. Therefore, the drum is the most likely culprit in this scenario.

Stories from the certified

Charles Sirois
Canada
As this was my first certification exam, I was understandably nervous about what to expect. These study materials made the preparation process much easier, and many of the questions closely reflected those on the actual exam.
Lance Chambers
United States
Wasted about a month going through the free dump sites scattered all over reddit, half the answers were wrong and the other half were for a version of the exam that doesn't even exist anymore. Eventually gave in and paid the small fee here, and the difference was night and day.
Alisha Kelly
Italy
Honestly, I had already gone through the official documentation quite thoroughly, but still didn't feel fully confident going in. This helped things finally click for me. I realized I knew the material, but just hadn't connected all the pieces yet.
Casper Claassen
Netherlands
Used this along with Microsoft Learn and the combo worked really well. The practice questions made the stuff I'd read actually stick. Passed first attempt, no complaints from me.
Gabriele Ghesla
Italy
The content is accurate and clearly presented, and it's more affordable than competitors. The team has been incredibly responsive whenever I've had an issue, and they've been open to small changes that improve the platform.
