CK Electric Part C3000 manual Glossary

Fine mode

One of the printer’s print modes. Use this mode when printing on transparencies or printing a halftone image that produces grayscale or intermediate colors.

Font

A complete set of characters of the same size and style; a particular implementation of a typeface. For example, 12-point, Courier bold.

G3, Group 3 fax machine

Defined by CCITT. Uses encoding schemes to transmit image data while reducing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted, thus reducing transmission time. Encoding schemes for G3 fax machines are Modified Huffman (MH), Modified Read (MR), and Modified Modified Read (MMR).

Grayscale

Representing color in black and white as a result of different intensities of color. Different colors and intensities of colors appear as different shades of gray.

Group dialing

A dialing method that enables you to dial up to 55 registered one-touch speed dialing or coded speed dialing numbers together as a group. This means that you can press just one to three buttons to enter numbers when sending the same document to many destinations.

Halftone

Using this method, the MultiPASS (in printer mode) produces shades of gray or of colors by mapping dots to be printed. For color printing, different colored dots of ink are placed closely together to create illusions of other colors.

IEEE 1284

IEEE 1284 is the new specification standard for computer-to-peripheral bidirectional parallel interface communications. The new standard was adopted by IEEE, Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, Inc., in 1993. Some of the benefits it provides are: bidirectional communication between computers and peripheral devices, a higher speed data transfer rate, and protection against data loss due to noise interference.
