Glossary
X–13
T
tagged image file format (TIFF). A bitmapped
graphics format for scanned images of up to 300
dpi.
TCP/IP transmission control protocol/Internet
protocol. The standard used by the Internet for
transmitting information.
telnet. In TCP/IP, an application protocol that
allows a user at one site to access a remote system
as if the user’s computer were locally attached.
Telnet uses TCP as the underlying protocol. See
also
TCP/IP
.
test mode. The operational mode in which the
printer can produce print samples, accept
configuration changes, and control traces.
test page. A page you can print to see samples of
color and grayscale on the printer.
text orientation. The position of text as a
combination of print direction and baseline
direction. See also
orientation
.
thermistor. A semiconductor device whose
electric resistance is dependent on temperature.
token. In a local area network (LAN), a message
or bit pattern that signifies permission to transmit.
The token is passed successively from one
workstation to another to indicate the workstation
temporarily in control of the transmission medium.

token-ring network
.
token-ring network. A local area network (LAN)
with an architecture that combines token-passing
with a hybrid star-and-ring topology. See also
Ethernet, star network, token.
toner. In color printing, the material that forms an
image on paper. Toner adheres to the exposed
areas on the photoconductor drum during the
developing process and is then transferred to the
paper to form the developed image on the paper.
toner cartridge. A cylindrical unit that supplies
the toner for one of the four colors (cyan, magenta,
yellow, and black) used for color printing. Four toner
cartridges fit in the printer’s turret. See also
turret
.
toner cartridge position mark. A mark on the
printer’s turret that you use to align with the arrow
on a toner cartridge.
toner projection development. The process in
which, when the area on the printer’s
photoconductor drum cartridge that is irradiated by
the laser beam comes close to the negatively
charged toner on the cylinder, the difference in
potential causes the toner to jump across and
adhere to the drum surface.
topology. The geometric arrangement of nodes
and cable links in a local area network (LAN).
top output tray. When the side output tray is
closed, a tray that receives printouts facedown. The
top output tray holds approximately 20 sheets of
plain paper at 80 g/m
2
.
torque. A force that produces rotation or torsion.
trailing edge. The edge of the paper that goes
into the printer last as it is inserted by the paper
feeder.
transceiver chip. Semiconductor material used
for transmitting and receiving signals.
transfer drum. The part of the printer where a
toned image on the photoconductor drum is
transferred to the paper.
transfer sheet. A special plastic-like material that
surrounds the transfer drum and can maintain an
electrical charge for paper attraction and image
transfer. See also
transfer drum.
transmission control protocol/Internet protocol
(TCP/IP). The standard used by the Internet for
transmitting information.
transparency. An acetate sheet that holds
information to be shown by an overhead projector.
transparency film. See
transparency.
tray. A receptacle to store paper or transparencies
for printing. The printer has three trays: tray 1 used
for paper, tray 2 used for paper, and an auxiliary
tray used for paper and transparencies.
TrueType. A font technology that offers scalable
fonts to Macintosh and Windows systems for
display on monitors and for use on printers.
