Glossary
Bitmap:
A data file or structure. A set of bits that represents a graphic image, with each bit
or group of bits corresponding to a pixel in the image.
Host:
A machine or production system that handles the product or substrate and can be
connected by an interface to the printer, e.g. a printer alarm to stop the machine.
Index:
Distance between two printed areas on the used ribbon, also known as ‘ribbon
gap’.
Label:
A design file from which the printer generates the bitmap to print. This design file
can contain a unique combination of text, numeric, date, time, barcode and/or
graphical items.
Label memory:
Memory on the MMI board in which the labels can be stored. From this memory
labels can be selected for printing (stored in the print memory).
Pixel:
A pixel is the smallest portion of a bitmap. For a printer one pixel represents one
dot (= one sequence of heating up of a single heating element of the print head).
Print:
The result of printing a label on a substrate.
Print memory:
Memory on the main board (PX2) in which the label to be printed is stored. Only
one label can be printed at the same time, so only one label can be stored in this
memory.
Print request:
A signal generated by a sensor or host machine. It is a trigger to start a print cycle.
Print cycle:
The moment from which the printer accepts a print request until the printer is
ready to accept a new print request.
Product:
In this manual, the substrate the printer prints on, e.g. a packaging foil.
QiC Draw:
A design tool on a PC to create and edit labels. It also contains a service module
which can be used during service/problem solving.
Ribbon:
Thermal transfer ribbon, pigment carrier foil.
Sensor:
A product detection device connected to the control unit.
Substrate:
This is the material to print on, e.g. packaging foil.
