Output, data/information leaves the computer via it. If it is a combination printer/fax/scanner it could be both. When printing it is an output device, when scanning it is an input device.

A printer is an output device. The computer OUTPUTs data to the printer. If the printer is also a scanner, then the scanner portion of the device is an input device. The computer INPUTs data from the scanner. The printer with a scanner would generally be referred to as an Input/Output device.

No, it is classed as an output device - same as the computer's monitor. Both of which show the result of your input from the keyboard, etc.
