GLOSSARY OF TERMS

LAN interface

An interface for the local area network that supports the use of

 

10Base-T and 100Base-TX cables. (The use of Category 5 or greater

 

TX cables is supported.) The maximum cable length supported is 100

 

meters.

Letter size

Line feed (LF)

A standard paper size used in the United States and other countries. Paper is 8-1/2 x 11 inches (215.9 x 279.4 mm).

A signal to the printer that advances the paper forward one line. Line feeds can be executed either by your software or by pressing the LF/ FF button on the printer control panel.

Line spacing

lpi

Monospacing

The vertical spacing between lines, measured in lines per inch.

Lines per inch. Used to measure line spacing.

Character spacing in which each printed character has the same width. Also called fixed pitch, monospacing is the opposite of proportional spacing. Typewriter or computer-printed text is typically monospaced.

Nonresident font

Normal mode

Fonts not present (resident) in the printer’s permanent memory. Soft fonts and fonts on font cards are examples of nonresident fonts.

One of the printer’s two operating modes. In normal mode, the control panel can be used to perform everyday printer operations, such as loading and unloading paper, feeding paper, and selecting print features. See also Setup mode.

Offline

When the printer is offline, it receives commands from the printer

 

control panel rather than from the computer. “Offline” indicates that

 

the printer is not “online” with the computer.

Online

When the printer is online, it is ready to receive or is receiving

 

commands from the computer. The printer must be online to print.

Parallel interface

A standard computer interface. Information is transferred between

 

devices over separate wires, allowing all of the bits that make up the

 

character to be transmitted simultaneously (in parallel).
