Reset

When you reset the printer you restore a base set of conditions. A reset can either

 

be performed using the control panel or by sending the printer a reset command.

 

There are two types of reset, the normal reset and factory reset. A normal reset

 

simply restores the current emulation mode with the most recent control panel

 

settings -- it does not change the emulation mode itself. A factory reset makes

 

LaserJet mode the current emulation mode and restores the factory default

 

environment.

Resident font

See internal font.

ROM

Read Only Memory. Part of the printer's memory that contains the software

 

controlling the printer and the printer internal fonts. The ROM cannot be altered

 

unless the type of ROM fitted to the printer is Flash ROM, in which case it can be

 

written to electronically via the parallel port of the printer .

Row

A horizontal sub-division of the page whose height is equal to the VMI (vertical

 

motion index). The print position moves down the page a distance equal to the row

 

height when a line feed is performed.

Sans serif

A kind of typeface normally used for headlines. Sans serif typefaces do not have

 

little hooks (serifs) on the individual characters. This helps Sans serif headline text

 

stand out more prominently.

Scalable fonts

A font for which you can specify the character size. The printer will automatically

 

scale the characters to the size you require.

Scaling

In HP-GL or HP-GL/2 mode you can use the SC command to scale graphic images.

 

The three types of scaling are known as anisotropic, isotropic and point factor

 

scaling.

Scaling points

Two imaginary points called P1 and P2 that define a rectangular area relative to the

 

picture frame. You can use the HP-GL or HP-GL/2 SC and IP or IR commands to

 

transform and scale images by changing the relationship between the two scaling

 

points.

Scalable typeface

A typeface for which you can choose a point size (height) in order to obtain a

 

particular font for printing. For example, you might select the Utah typeface and

 

then select 14 pt. as the height. The printer has many resident typefaces. You can

 

also buy scalable typeface cartridge and disks.

Secondary font

In LaserJet mode the printer maintains two current font settings. The secondary

 

font is the second of these.

Serif

A kind of typeface normally used for body text. Serif typefaces have little hooks

 

(serifs) on the individual characters that makes text more readable.

Soft clip limits

See graphics window. The soft limits are determined by the IW command.

Source image

The graphic image that is applied to the destination image in the LaserJet print

 

model. The interaction of the two images is determined by the current source and

 

pattern transparency settings.

Source transparency

The source image is either transparent, in which case the destination image is

 

visible throughout the white parts of the source image, or opaque, in which case

 

the destination image is not visible at all through the source image.

Spacing

The way in which a font's characters are arranged on a line of text. See

 

monospacing and proportional spacing.
