Negative Print
An image in which the white and black values are reversed.
NEIT
XANTÉ’s new Negative Enhanced Imaging Technology (NEIT).
This technology allows you to reduce the distortion of gray scale
images and the plugging (filling-in) of small white spaces that were
common when printing a negative image on a laser printer. See
Negative Print, Ghosting, and Plugging.
Network
Computer devices (Macintoshes, PCs, printers, etc.) that are linked
together by cables and are able to communicate with each other
using one of many network operating standards (such as AppleTalk
or Ethernet).
Null Modem Cable
A type of cable that allows serial communication between devices
without modems. It switches the transmit and receive data lines and
wiring handshake lines to simulate modem protocols.
Off Line
The printer or controller is not accepting data from the host
computer. The On Line key LED is not lit.
On Line
The printer or controller is ready to accept or is accepting data from
the host computer. The On Line key LED is lit. The printer or
controller has to be on line to accept and print a job.
Output
Computer generated information in its final form. For example,
printer output is a printed copy of the information. Monitor output is
the projected image of the data on screen.
Parallel
Interface technique which transmits several bits of data at the same
time through different wires. Parallel transmission is generally faster
than serial transmission. See Centronics Interface.
