Print driver
See Driver.
Protocol
The rules that control the transmitting and receiving of data.
Queue
A place where jobs are stored temporarily, while they are
waiting to be processed. A print queue will hold several print
jobs.
RARP
An abbreviation of Reverse Address Resolution Protocol. This
is a method for providing IP Addresses to nodes on a network.
When a node powers up, it broadcasts a RARP packet
containing its Ethernet Address. The RARP server receives
the packet and sends the IP Address back to the node.
Router
A device that directs network packets to the segment of the
network for which the packet is intended, and excludes
packets that are not intended for a segment. Routers reduce
unnecessary network traffic and control access to segments of
the network.
SPX
An abbreviation of Sequenced Packet Exchange. SPX is part
of NetWare. It makes sure that packets are received in the
correct order and that there are no errors.
Subnet Mask
There are approximately 4.3 billion different addresses in the
IP Address range of 000.000.000.000 to 255.255.255.255.
These addresses can be divided into smaller, and much more
manageable subnetworks, or subnets. The Subnet Mask
identifies which part of the IP Address contains the Subnet
Address and which part contains the host (or device) address.
TCP/IP
An abbreviation of Transmission Control Protocol / Internet
Protocol. TCP/IP is a set of communications protocols that is
supported by a variety of computer platforms. TCP controls
the data transfer and IP controls the routing of the data. The IP
Address is a unique address that identifies a device in a
network. The IP Address has to be set in the machine by the
Key Operator. The IP Address consists of four bytes of
information and is expressed as decimal numbers with the
bytes separated by dots, for example 13.1.188.2.
TIFF
An abbreviation of Tagged Image File Format. A standard file
format commonly used for scanning. Images scanned with the
machine are captured in a TIFF 6.0 file format.
Twisted Pair
