DTR/DSR
Data Terminal Ready/Data Signal Received. A hardware-controlled
protocol which controls the flow of data between the controller and
computer in serial communication. See also XON/XOFF.
Error Diffusion
An algorithm that defines the placement of dots on an image based
on data from surrounding cells.
Ethernet
An industry standard local area network developed by Xerox, Intel,
and Digital Equipment Corporation. The controller has a standard
Ethernet interface.
Factory Default Settings
Settings programmed in at the factory, such as English as the default
unit of measure. These settings can be changed through applications,
utilities, printer commands, and the controller’s front panel. See also
Default Settings.
Family
The group name of the typeface, which identifies the typeface’s
distinctive shape. Typeface families are often named after their
designers (John Baskerville, Frederick Goudy); they can suggest how
a typeface may be used (Bookman, Century Schoolbook); or they
may describe the typeface’s appearance (Clearface, BrushScript).
See also Typeface.
Flow Control Conflict
A conflict which occurs when your computer software and controller
settings are not both set for the same communication protocol. For
example, in serial communication if a controller is set for XON/
XOFF flow control and the computer is using DTR/DSR, they
cannot communicate because of a flow control conflict.
