DIMM
DIMM stands for dual in-line memory module. Memory DIMMs are optional plug-in
attachments for ROM sockets on the main circuit board inside the printer. There are
two ROM sockets provided for ROM DIMMs. The A-65 module for Adobe PostScript 3
and the Flash ROM. There is also a RAM DIMM socket which can hold up to 64 MB of
RAM memory.
Dot Matrix
A pattern of dots arranged in a matrix used to form characters. The larger the matrix,
the finer the character. For example, because a 1200-dot matrix can use more dots; it
can produce a character more refined than one from a 600-dot matrix.
Dot Matrix Printer
A non-letter quality impact printer in which the print head consists of tiny solenoids
that drive small wires onto an ink ribbon to form patterns of dots on paper between
the print head and platen.
Downloaded Fonts

dpi
Stands for dots per inch, a unit of measurement for indicating a printer’s resolution.
Emulation
A feature that allows the printer to emulate or take on the personality of another
printer. If you install the optional A-65 module for Adobe PostScript 3 software, your
printer can emulate a PostScript printer.
