ionographic
printer
A printer that forms images by directing an array of negative ions
onto a drum. After dry ink is attracted to the charged areas of the
drum, the image is fused to the paper by cold pressure.
ISO
International Organization for Standardization
item numbering
A number that is applied as a part of the sorting process. The
number is usually linked to the microfilm sequence and is used to
located the appropriate microfilm image during document
research.
label stock
Adhesive-backed sheets of paper that may be applied to a
variety of surfaces and may be used for mailing addresses,
identification or price tags, etc. Sheets may be backed with
pressure-sensitive adhesive or dry gum. Label sheets may be
uncut or divided into any number of individual labels.
landscape
Landscape orientation refers to printing across the length of the
page, as opposed to portrait orientation which prints across the
width of the page. The term “landscape” is derived from pictures
of landscapes, which are usually horizontal in format.
legal amount
The value of the check expressed in text. If this value differs from
the convenience amount, the legal amount prevails.
laser printer
A non-impact xerographic printer that uses a laser beam to form
images on a photoreceptor. The images are then fused to paper
by heat and pressure. Xerox calls their laser printers Electronic
or Laser Printing Systems (EPS or LPS).
leading edge
The right edge of a check, which is the first edge of the
document to feed into a reader/sorter and is most susceptible to
damage.
logo
The name of a company or product in a special design; used as
a trademark in advertising.
magnetic ink
Usually printer ink to which iron oxide particles have been added.
On Xerox MICR printing systems, it is the dry ink with magnetic
characteristics.
mailer
Specialized product incorporating glued margins, cross gluing,
and carbonizing or carbonless coating so that both the outside
address and insert can be printed simultaneously.
Matrix reader/
sorter
Reader/sorters that use a number of read heads, which in turn
replicates the character read in terms of a matrix. An example of
this type of device is the IBM 3890.
MICR
Acronym for Magnetic Ink Character Recognition. It consists of
magnetic ink printed characters that can be recognized by high-
speed magnetic and/or optical recognition equipment.
