Can you make use of a ServletOutputStream object from within a JSP page (JSP)

Question :Can you make use of a ServletOutputStream object from within a JSP
page? (JSP)

Answer :No. You are supposed to make use of only a JSPWriter object (given to
you in the form of the implicit object out) for replying to clients. A
JSPWriter can be viewed as a buffered version of the stream object
returned by response.getWriter(), although from an implementational
perspective, it is not. A page author can always disable the default
buffering for any page using a page directive as:
<%@ page buffer="none" %>
