Glossary
auto power shut-off mode
A power saving mode in which the POWER SAVE
indicator lights up and all other indicators go out.
Note that the DATA and ON LINE indicator lights
are not affected.This mode saves the most power, but
takes longer to warm up compared to the preheat
mode.
See also preheat mode.

bit
A binary digit, whose state is either yes or no, on or
off, 1 or 0. The smallest unit of information storage
in computers.

bit-mapped graphics
A way of representing graphic images using a pattern
of dots. The density of these dots is know as the
resolution, which is usually expressed in dots per
inch.See also resolution, dots-per-inch.

byte
A unit of information storage consisting of eight bits,
enough (in most computer codes for Western
languages) to encode one letter, number or symbol.

consistent appearance and style, such as Times New
Roman. Traditionally in printing, a font was a
typeface in a specific size, such as Times New
Roman 12-point.

between a computer and a printer.

landscape
The orientation of a printed page held with the long
dimension horizontal: wider than it is tall. Printing
runs across the longer dimension.
See also portrait, orientation.

local printer
A printer that is directly connected to your computer,
as opposed to a remote or network printer.

megabyte (MB)
A unit of information storage consisting of slightly
more than a million bytes.
See also bit.

memory
The capacity of a device (computer, printer, etc.) to
store information, or the devices in which information
is stored, usually measured in bytes. While you are
working on a file with a computer, it is stored in
random-access memory (RAM) chips, but is lost when
you reset or turn off your computer. When you save a
file, it is stored on floppy or hard disks or other
storage devices.

off-line
A condition in which the printer is not ready to accept
data from or communicate with the computer.

orientation
The way a page must be held in order to be legible. In
portrait orientation, printing runs across the page’s
width or shorter dimension. In landscape orientation,
printing runs across the page’s length or longer
dimension.

parallel interface cable
A data cable which transfers multiple bits of
information simultaneously along each of its wires
from the computer to the printer. The parallel
interface cable should be shielded and less than 3
meters (10 feet) in length.
Note: Use a high-quality, shielded IEEE-1284
compliant parallel interface cable.
See also interface cable.
