Resolution
The density of dots for any given output device, expressed in terms of dots per inch (dpi). Low resolution causes font characters and graphics to have a jagged appearance, but prints faster than higher resolutions. Higher resolution provides smoother curves and angles as well as a better match to traditional typeface designs, but prints more slowly. This printer can produce output with 300 or 600 dpi resolution. Resolution values are represented by horizontal data and vertical data, for example, 600 x 600 dpi.
Reverse Output Order
This function allows you to print pages of the document in reverse order: from the last page to the first page.
S
Scalable fonts
Scalable fonts allow characters to be printed in various sizes and rotation angles. This is different from bitmap fonts, which are printed in fixed sizes and angles.
Scaling
Enlarging or reducing the printed image.
Separator page
Optional pages printed at the beginning of each document to help separate one print job from another.
Server
A network computer that is directly attached to the printer. The server controls the printer and handles print jobs sent from the clients. See Client.
Shielded
A type of cable that contains a metallic sheath over the conductor material to protect the data passing through the cable from electromagnetic interference. You need to use a double- shielded interface cable with this printer.
Spooling
A process by which an application sends a document to the Spooler, rather than directly to the printer, thus freeing the computer and application for other tasks. Spooled documents are printed in the order they are received.
Start menu
The menu that presents commands that are a starting point for all work you do on your computer, such as starting a program, opening a document, finding a file, and getting help. You open the Start menu by clicking the Start button displayed on the Desktop.
Status options
