To find the sales tax on the printer, we need to multiply the price of the printer by the tax rate expressed as a decimal.
Tax rate = 6% = 0.06
Sales tax = (Price of printer) x (Tax rate)
Sales tax = $349.00 x 0.06
Sales tax = $20.94
Therefore, the sales tax on this printer in dollars and cents is option D: $20.94.
