Bar code

A code which represents alphanumeric characters by using a series of black and white stripes in different widths. Bar codes are used in various industrial fields: Manufacturing, Hospitals, Libraries, Retail, Transportation, Warehousing, etc. Reading bar codes is a fast and accurate means of capturing data while keyboard entry tends to be slow and inaccurate.

Batch mode

Issue mode that continuously prints media until the specified number of media has been printed.

Black mark

A mark printed on the media so that the printer can maintain a constant print position by detecting this mark.

Black mark sensor

A reflective sensor which detects the difference of potential between the black mark and print area to find the print start position.

Cut mode

Printer mode of operation where an optional cutter module is installed to automatically cut media from the supply roll after they are printed. The print command can specify to cut every media or to cut after a set number of media have been printed.

Cutter module

A device used to cut the media.

DPI

Dot Per Inch

The unit used to express print density.

Expansion I/O interface

An optional interface circuit that may be installed into the B-852 printer to allow the printer to be connected to an external device such as a wrapping machine and to receive feed, print start, and pause signals from the external device and to send back print, pause, and error status signals to the external device.

Feed gap sensor

A transmissive sensor which detects the difference of potential between the gap between labels and the label to find the print position of the label.

Font

A complete set of alphanumeric characters in one style of type. E.g. Helvetica, Courier, Times

Gap

Clearance between labels

IPS

Inch per second

The unit used to express print speed.

KB-80 keyboard interface

This interface is standard on the B-852 printer to allow the optional KB-80 keyboard to be attached to the printer allowing it to be operated in a standalone condition. Label programs may be stored in the KB-80 flash memory and labels printed through commands and data input through the keyboard instead of from a host computer.

LCD

Liquid Crystal Display

Installed on the operation panel and displays operation modes, error message and so on.

Label

A type of media with adhesive backing.

Media

Material on which data is printed by the printer. Label, tag paper, fanfold paper, perforated paper, etc.
