Lps | Xerox 4650, 4450 instruction

		GLOSSARY
line	feed	Control character that (unless set to be interpreted as a line end)
		causes the printing system to begin printing in the current
		character position of the next line.
literal		Alphanumeric character beginning with a letter, including an
		asterisk, period, colon, or slash, and not enclosed in single
		quotes.
logical	page	In Xerox printing systems, a logical page is a formatted page that
		is smaller than the physical page. A logical page is defined by an
		origin, thus allowing more than one logical page to be placed on
		a physical page.
	lpi	Lines per inch.
	LPS	Laser printing system.
mask		Selection of bits from a storage unit by use of an instruction that
		eliminates the other bits in the unit. In accessing files, a file
		name mask is used to reference one or more files with similar
		file-id (identifier) syntax. In Interpress, a mask serves as a
		template, indicating the shape and position of an object on a
		page.
metacode		Method of controlling the image generator. The character
		dispatcher uses these codes to generate scan line information.
		This information is sent in the form of character specifications to
		the image generator, which uses it to compose the bit stream
		that modulates the laser. Also called native mode.
monochrome		Printing in one color only.
nesting		Subroutine or set of data, such as a comment, contained
		sequentially within another set of data.
object	file	Source file converted into machine language (binary code).
octal		System of representing numbers based on 8.
offset		To place printed output sets in slightly different positions from
		each other in an output bin for easy separation of collated sets.
operand		That which is acted upon, for example, data, in an operation or
		process.
operating system		Software that controls the low-level tasks in a computer system,
		such as input or output and memory management. The
		operating system is always running when the computer is active.
