Screen Angle

The angle at which a screen is printed. See also screen.

Screen Font

A font designed for display on a computer monitor. Screen fonts usually have corresponding printer fonts.

SCSI

An acronym for Small Computer System Interface, which allows up to three external hard disks to be connected to your printer. See also IDE.

Security Card

A module the size of a credit card that allows you to set passwords for the Operator Control and Administration menus. When a security card is inserted into the printer card slot, the Installation menu appears in the configuration menu.

Select Key

The control panel key used to access a menu or to choose a displayed selection or option.

Serial Interface

A data transmission technique that sends each bit sequentially over a single line. It is normally used to send one bit at a time for data communications. Your printer provides RS-422 serial communications. See also parallel interface.

SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module)

A small circuit board designed to accommodate surface-mount memory chips. SIMMs use less board space and are more compact than more conventional memory-mounting hardware. See also memory upgrade.

SIO (Simultaneous Interface Operation)

The capability of printing to all three of the printer's concurrently active ports rather than being restricted to one. See also concurrent interfaces.

Soft Fonts

Fonts created or stored on disks. They can be transferred to the printer’s memory and remain available to be used until the printer is turned off. See also download.
