  • Page 24 This chapter defines common terms used in the description of fonts and typefaces, and displays the printer’s resident typefaces. Many of the terms and phrases used in desktop publishing are derived from the language of professional printers and typesetters. This section explains common words and phrases used when dis- cussing typefaces.
  • Page 25 One way of classifying the different typefaces is to group them into the following categories: A serif is a decorative line or tail on the ends of the strokes of a letter. Serifs, usually on the lower half of a letter, have also been imes Roman and Times are serif typefaces.
  • Page 26 Pi or symbol typefaces are collections of assorted special- purpose characters (for example, decorative, graphic, math, or monetary characters). They are especially useful for highlighting items in lists, providing graphics, and displaying symbols that might otherwise have to be drawn in by hand. Many typefaces today include a complement of the more commonly used pi characters.
  • Page 27 A bitmapped font is one in which each character is represented by a set of dot patterns. Each font size requires a different set of dot patterns. A scalable font is one in which each character’s dot pattern (bitmap) is generated from a mathematical representation (or outline) of the character.
  • Page 28 Italic was originally developed in the early sixteenth century as a typeface based on cursive handwriting. Today’s italics are still individually crafted typefaces designed to blend with a specific roman (upright) typeface. ITC Avant Garde Roman ITC Avant Garde Oblique individually but are mechanically slanted versions of the roman form from which they derive.

  • Page 123: Simultaneous Interface Operation (Sio)

    Simultaneous Interface Operation (SIO), a standard feature of QMS Crown architecture, enables your QMS 2060 Print System to communicate simultaneously with hosts through the parallel, optional serial, Ethernet, and optional interface ports. In other words, SIO allows you to have more than one host communicating with the printer at one time.
  • Page 124 PCL, or HP-GL commands for such items as page formats and job parameters (number of copies, page margins, fonts). The QMS 2060 Print System prints almost any file sent in a language ESP technology understands, whether you have one, two, or more hosts, and whether you are communicating through a parallel, Ether- net, or other optional interface.
  • Page 125 The ability of the printer to produce halftones allows you to add scanned images or halftone graphics to your documents. This section will explain some of the options available on the QMS 2060 for half- tone printing. Continuous tone scanned images have to be converted to dot pattern images on a laser printer.
  • Page 126 A screen angle is the angle at which a halftone screen prints. The default screen angle for your QMS 2060 Print System is 45° at 300x300, 600x600,and 1200x1200 dpi. This is the normal angle for black and white printers.
  • Page 127 The number of gray levels varies by changing the halftone type and the printer resolution. Your QMS 2060 Print System offers a Smoothing option under the Administration/Engine menu if the Multi-Res daughterboard is installed.
  • Page 128 The ability to configure your printer's memory doesn’t necessarily mean that you must change your current configuration. If you’re pres- ently using all the features you need and the printer is performing effi- ciently, you shouldn’t feel compelled to reconfigure your printer's memory.
  • Page 129 Before you can configure your printer's memory efficiently, you must first understand the different types of memory and how they work together. Your QMS 2060 Print System documentation uses the fol- lowing memory terms. Memory allows your printer to store and retrieve information. It’s the space within your printer where information is stored while being actively worked on.
  • Page 130 RAM is the memory your printer uses to perform each task. It can be written to and read from. Once a task is complete, the memory is free again to be used for another file. This memory is volatile, so if your printer loses power while a file is being sent, you must resend the file.
  • Page 131 RAM for other tasks. Quick loading, reprogrammable memory that holds information even when the printer is turned off is known as flash ROM. Your 2060 Print System has flash ROM available to hold system code and future sys- tem upgrades.
  • Page 132 The first step in allocating your printer’s memory is to define your printing needs. Each of your printer’s features requires a minimum amount of memory. If you use a feature, you must allocate enough memory to the client which controls it. On the other hand, if there are features you don’t use, you can take the memory in the clients that...
  • Page 133 Memory clients are users of printer memory that are dedicated to a specific purpose. Each of the memory clients is located in the Admin- istration/Memory menu.
  • Page 134 Memory clients in the 2060 are automatically allocated when the printer is installed or when you upgrade the printer’s memory. There are other occasions when the printer’s memory is automatically real- located: When new system software is installed. When adding or removing hard disks, duplexer, or Multi-Res daughterboard.
  • Page 135 If you are uncertain about how to configure your printer’s memory, use only the Administration/Memory/QuickConfig menu. This menu appears if your printer does not have a disk drive attached or if the disk swap option is disabled. Use this menu as a starting point before trying manually to configure your printer’s memory.
  • Page 136 Increasing the amount of memory in this client may improve printing throughput and minimize slowdowns due to collating or printing com- plex pages. If your QMS 2060 Print System has a hard drive and the disk swap option is enabled the memory added to this client is taken from virtual memory.
  • Page 137 There’s no specific formula to use in figuring the amount of memory required by the font cache, but after a certain point, large font caches cause the printer to take longer to print than smaller font caches because of the search time through the cache. The recommended...
  • Page 138 1 MB of physical RAM to your printer and increase this memory client by 1 MB. If your printer has an optional hard disk and the disk swap- ping option is turned on then you can increase the emulation memory client using this memory.
  • Page 139 SIMMs. The disk cache is a high speed temporary buffer for data going to and from the hard disk. It can speed the printer in two ways: Information such as frequently referenced fonts and logos may still be in the cache and may not have to be pulled off a hard disk each time they’re needed.
  • Page 140 This field on the status page shows the size of the physical RAM installed in the printer. If a hard disk is installed and disk swapping is enabled (Administration/Memory/Enable Disk Swap), this field also gives the size of available virtual memory.
  • Page 141 You can add one internal IDE hard disk (standard on 2060 EX ) and either up to three optional SCSI hard disks or the optional CrownCopy scanner and up to two optional SCSI hard disks, to your QMS 2060 Print System. These hard disks serve as secondary storage places for such items as downloaded fonts, emulations, and spooled data.
  • Page 142 A QMS 2060 BX Print System with 16 MB of RAM. As many as 10 people use this printer, sending text and graphics PostScript files to be printed on 8.5" x 11" (215.9 mm x 279.4 mm) media. They have configured their printer to print at 600x600 dpi.
  • Page 143 EOD com- mand. This becomes even more problematic when you’re printing to a QMS 2060 Print System, where print jobs of all supported emulations can be received simultaneously. ESP technology examines the first part of each print job to determine its emulation.
  • Page 144 Multiple print jobs of the same printer language have been sent to the printer and they print on the same page. (For example, you send the AUTOEXEC.BAT file with no EOD command followed...
  • Page 145 Since the serial and parallel protocols may not be able to detect an EOD automatically, due to a lack of an EOD command in some printer languages, you can insert an EOD command at the end of your file to tell the printer where your print job ends.
  • Page 146 Note: If you print both serial and parallel protocol jobs, then you must set the end job mode for each protocol. Wait for the printer to go idle, and then press the control panel keys in the order shown in the following instructions to access the End Job Mode option.

When adding an EOD command to your file, use the syntax for the selected EOD command exactly as written (the command's syntax is case sensitive).
  • Page 149 When the QMS EOD or the HP EOD is set, the printer does not rec- ognize the Ctrl-D EOD command. Add your organization's standard EOD command to the end of your print file, or add it to a separate file as follows.
  • Page 150 Print acct.doc Print end.txt If your printer is connected to a network through a PC and the PC is acting as a print server managing the printing of shared network files, then your system administrator must create a job separator and associate it with a print job queue.
  • Page 151 In addition to Centronics parallel communication, your printer’s paral- lel interface provides IEEE 1284 bidirectional parallel communication, which supports five modes of operation. The printer automatically rec- ognizes and uses the mode dictated by the host. Printer-host communication is done in bytes.The byte mode may be used by the host device in a DMA (Direct Memory Access) mode for more efficient operation.
  • Page 152 A transfer of two nibbles is required for each byte of information. Your QMS 2060 Print System supports PS Protocol, a protocol for communication between the printer and a host computer over the parallel, optional serial, and optional network interfaces.
  • Page 153 0x01 0x54 (^a T) instead. (ASCII “T” is the result of XORing ^T with 0x40). This method of quoting guarantees that whenever the printer receives any of the eight control characters, the control function is intended regardless of whether the preceding character is a ^A. Any data byte not equal to one of the eight special control characters is transmitted by sending the data byte.
  • Page 154 The following options are available in the PS Protocol menu: Menu Administration/Communications/ Interface /PS Protocol Choices Name and Description Normal—Enables standard, ASCII hex protocol. Data is sent and received in ASCII format. This mode is recommended if you do not print binary data.
