MSL (Master Symbol List) This is a group of symbols (a symbol index). An unbound font has the capacity to be bound to a set of symbols selected from a complementary symbol index (such as the MSL or Unicode symbol indexes). Each symbol in the index is identified by a unique MSL number. Appendix D of the PCL 5 Comparison Guide contains the MSL symbol index. Negative angle of rotation An angle used to create a plot in HP-GL/2 which is rotated in the direction of the +X-axis to the -Y-axis. Note that the relationship of the +X-axis to the -Y-axis can change as a result of scaling point or scaling factor changes, thus changing the direction of a negative angle of rotation. See "Drawing Arcs" in Chapter 20 for more information. Non-volatile RAM Random Access Memory whose contents are preserved following a power failure (volatile RAM is memory whose contents are not preserved when the device is powered off). Non-volatile RAM is generally used to preserve configured (vs. programmed) device state information. Off-line/On-line On-line is a condition when the printer will accept data from the host computer. When the printer is on-line, the ON LINE lamp is lit. When off-line, the printer will not accept data from the host. Orientation The orientation of characters on a page; if the print is across the width of the page, it is "portrait-oriented;" if the print is across the length of the page, it is "landscape-oriented." Overlay Environment The overlay environment consists of the current settings for the following features with the remainder of the environment features set to their user default values: Paper source, Page size, Number of copies, Orientation, Cursor position stack.
