Parallel Interface
This is one type of interface for sending/
receiving data to peripheral machines.
Data is transferred simultaneously in bits.
A widely used standard parallel interface
is 'Centronics.' This transfers data to the
printer or other peripheral machines.
Printer Driver
This is the software that converts print data
made from an application into a form that
the printer can read.
RAM
Random Access Memory. A memory device
for storing information, and from which in-
formation can be read.
ROM
Read Only Memory. A memory device from
which information is read only.
Resolution
This is a term used to describe the level of
detail of the print. It is expressed as a mea-
sure of the dots printed in one horizontal
inch or 'dots per inch' (dpi). The greater
the dpi, the higher the resolution, and
hence the greater the level of detail that
can be printed.
Serial Interface
This is one type of interface for sending/
receiving data to a number of machines.
Data is transferred in bit units. A widely
used standard serial interface is RS 232.
This transfers data to other machines con-
nected to that network.
Standby Mode/Energy save mode
The energy save mode saves electricity by
turning of power to the heater in the fuser
and the motors in the printer/copier when
it is not in use. This state is switched on
automatically after a time period elapses
from the most recent print job finishing.
Note that the energy saver for the printer
and scanner are independent.

330 457mm size sheets that can be set in
the DocuColor 4 LP/CP. Slightly bigger
