Character Set

Character Set

A collection of characters.

Command

An instruction that tells the printer to perform a certain function. Commands are sent from the host computer to the printer via the interface cable when the printer is on line.

Commercial

A paper size of 8.3" x 10.6" (210 mm x 270 mm).

Concurrent Interfaces

Interface ports that are all active simultaneously, giving you the ability to print to all three ports concurrently rather than be restricted to one. See also SIO.

Configuration

The process of specifying certain settings to allow your computer and printer to communicate properly. For example, interface selection (serial or parallel) is part of printer configuration. A DOS-based PC is configured through DOS mode commands in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

Connector

A coupler used to join a cable to a device or to another cable. Connectors are identified as male or female. A male connector has one or more exposed pins or prongs. A female connector has one or more receptacles designed to accept the pins on the male connector.

Connector Box

A piece of equipment consisting of a small box with a built-in cable that links the printer to the LocalTalk cable system.

Consumables

Supplies, such as paper, transparencies, and toner.

Controller

The software that controls the engine of a printer. The controller is the “intelligence” of the printer.
