power-on functions
These are special functions, such as a printer operation check, that you can perform
by holding down a control panel button while turning on the printer.
printable area
The area of a page on which the printer can print. It is smaller than the physical size
of the page due to margins.
printer driver
A software program that sends commands for using the features of a particular
printer. Often shortened to “driver.” See also driver.
printer operation check
A method for checking the operation of the printer. When you perform a printer
operation check, the printer prints the ROM version, code page, ink counter code,
and a nozzle check pattern.
print head alignment mode
This allows you to align the print head if you can’t use the print head alignment
utility. See also print head alignment.
print head alignment
A maintenance procedure you should perform when the black and color inks on
your printout are misaligned or the printout seems fuzzy.
print server
The print server acts as a post office for all print jobs sent over a network. It receives
the jobs and then distributes them to the assigned printer. It also holds extra print
jobs while the printer is busy. See also print queue.
print queue
If your printer is connected to a network, print jobs that are sent to the printer while
it is busy are stored in a waiting line, or print queue, until they can be printed.
proportional printing
Printing in which the width of the character varies from character to character. For
example, a capital W receives much more space than a lowercase i. The result looks
more like a typeset book than a typewritten draft.
RAM
Random Access Memory. The portion of the printer’s memory used as a buffer and
for storing user-defined characters. All data stored in RAM is lost when the printer
is turned off.
reset
To return a printer to its defaults either by sending a command, an INIT signal, or
by turning the printer off and then back on.
resolution
The number of dots per inch used to represent an image.
