It is smaller than the physical size of the page due to margins. printer driver The part of a software program that contains commands for a particular printer. proportional pfinting Printing in which the width of the character varies from character to character. For example, a capital W receives much more space than a lowercase i. The result looks more like a typeset book than a typewritten draft. RAM Random Access Memory.

All data stored in RAM is lost when the printer is tu&d off. reset To return a printer to its defaults either by sending a command, an INIT signal, or by turning the printer off and then back on. ROM Read Only Memory. A portion of memory that can only be read and cannot be used for data storage. ROM retains its contents when you turn off the printer. self test A method for checking the operation of the printer. When you run the self test, the printer prints the characters stored in its ROM. software program A software program that helps you carry out a particular task, such as word processing or financial planning. superscript Printing in which each character is printed at about two-thirds the normal height in the upper part of the character space. unidirectional printing Printing in which the print head prints in one direction only.
