Escape (ESC) sequence: "ESC" is a control code that begins most printer commands. The characters which follow the "ESC" are interpreted as command, rather than characters to print. Fanfold paper: Fanfold paper has regularly sprocket holes on the left and right sides and pages are separated by a perforation between each sheet. May also be known as computer paper or tractor paper. FF (Form feed): "FF" is a control code that advances the paper one page. Font: Font is a style and size of type designated by a family name. Graphics: Groups of dots or characters that are used to create images, as opposed to text and numbers. Graphics mode: A special mode of print in which only raster graphics printing is possible. Hexadecimal: Hexadecimal is a numbering system using the 16 digits, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E and F. Initialization: Initialization means to reset the printer to the initial start up condition. Interface: Interface is the connection between the two separate systems, such as the computer and the printer. A parallel interface transfers data one character or code at a time, and a serial interface D transfers data one bit at a time. -m m International character set: A set of characters defined by each country. x I/O: "I/O" is the symbolic notation for "Input/Output". Italics: A font style in which the character slants to the right. Used for emphasis, this is sometimes called oblique. 72 LF (Line Feed): "LF" is a control code that advances the paper one line. LSB: "LSB" is an acronym for "Least Significant Bit", and means the rightmost position in a binary number. Margin: The area between the edge of the paper and the first or last print position; left, right, top or bottom margin. MSB: "MSB" is an acronym for "Most Significant Bit", and means the leftmost position in a binary number. Near Letter Quality (NLQ): NLQ is one of two print qualities available on this printer. NLQ mode increases the number of dots per character to improve the print quality but decreases the printing speed. OFF LINE: OFF LINE is the condition in which the printer can not communicate with the computer. ON LINE: ON LINE is the condition in which the printer can communicate with the computer. Overline printing: Overline printing produces a continuous line above the characters, using the first pin of the printhead. Parallel interface: Transmitting data one byte (8 bits) at a time from computer to printer. Parity: Parity is a method for a computer and printer to check the accuracy of data transfer. Perforation: Perforation indicates the tear position on the fanfold paper. (ate P. 61) Pitch: Pitch is the number of characters which will print in one inch. Pitch is equivalent to characters per inch (cpi).

print
quality
but

LINE:
ON
LINE
is
the
condition
in
which
the
printer
can
communicate
with
the
computer.
Overline
printing:
Overline

byte
(8
bits)
at
a
time
