Glossary
Single Sheets
Single sheets are sheets of paper, envelopes, and noncontinuous multiple forms fed into the
printer using the cut sheet stand or optional cut sheet feeder. Single sheets are also called
cut sheets.
Soft Fonts
Fonts downloaded from a disk to the printer memory. Soft fonts are also referred to as
downloaded fonts. Unlike resident fonts, soft fonts are available only when in the printer
memory.
Software
Programs that control the computer and printer to perform specified tasks, such as word
processing, database management, and preparation of spreadsheets. Software is sometimes
referred to as application software.
Tear Bar
A cutting edge provided on the top cover to tear off continuous forms along the perforation.
Top Margin
The total space at the top of the printed page. The top margin is the sum of the top-of-form
setting, the software-specified top margin, and the printer’s
TOP-MRGN
setting in Set-Up
mode.
Top-of-Form (TOF)
The logical top of the physical page, as “understood” by the printer when loading paper.
The default TOF settings are 0 inch for both cut sheets and continuous forms.
Tractor Feed
A method for feeding continuous forms forward for printing. Holes on the sides of the
forms fit over sprockets on two tractors located inside the printer. The forms are pulled for
bottom feeding and pushed for rear feeding.
Unidirectional Printing
Printing is performed in one direction only, left to right. Unidirectional printing is slower
than bidirectional printing, but the vertical alignment is more accurate. Unidirectional
printing is useful when precise vertical alignment is required, as in ruled tables.
