pitch 1. Horizontal character spacing; 10-pitch (10 characters per inch) spacing is called pica, and 12-pitch (12 characters per inch) spacing is called elite. 2. The number of page images placed on the xerographic belt during one revolution. The DocuPrint 180 LPS supports two pitch modes: 7 pitch when paper 9 inches/229 mm long or less is used to print a job, and 3 pitch when paper 9 to 17 inches/ 229 to 432 mm long is used to print a job.

pixel Acronym for picture element. Smallest addressable point of a bit- mapped screen that can be independently assigned color and intensity. Pixels are definable locations on a display used to form images. For graphic displays, more pixels generally provide higher resolution. Spots, dots, and pixels are used interchangeably.
