    memory
    The part of the printer’s electronic system that is used to store information. Some 
    information is fixed and is used to control how the printer operates. Information 
    that is sent to the printer from the computer (such as downloaded fonts) is stored 
    in memory temporarily. See also  RAM on page 462 and  ROM on page 462.
    orientation
    Refers to the direction in which characters are printed on a page. This direction 
    is either portrait, where the length of the page is longer than its width, or 
    landscape, where the width is longer than its length.
    outline font
    A font whose outline is described mathematically, allowing it to be rendered 
    (printed or drawn) smoothly at any size.
    PCL
    The command language built into the Hewlett-Packard® LaserJet® series 
    printers.
    photoconductor unit
    A component of the printer that contains a photosensitive print drum.
    pitch
    A measure of the number of characters per inch (cpi) for fixed-width fonts.
    point size
    The height of a particular font as measured from the top of the tallest character 
    to the bottom of the lowest. A point is a typographic unit of measure equivalent 
    to 1/72 of an inch.
    portrait
    Printing that is oriented upright on the page (as opposed to landscape, in which 
    printing is oriented sideways on the page). This is the standard orientation for 
    printing letters or documents.
    ppm (pages per minute)
    The number of pages can be printed in one minute.
    printer driver
    Software that sends instructions to the printer to tell it what to do. For example, 
    your printer driver accepts print data from your word processor application and 
    sends instructions to the printer on how to print this data.
     
    						
    							462Glossary
    printer emulation
    A set of operating commands that determines how data sent from the computer 
    is interpreted and acted upon. Printer emulations replicate existing printers, such 
    as the HP LaserJet 4.
    proportional font
    A font whose characters have varying amounts of horizontal space depending 
    on the width of the character. Thus the uppercase M takes up more horizontal 
    space than the lowercase l.
    RAM
    Random Access Memory. The portion of the printer’s memory used as a buffer 
    and for storing user-defined characters. All data stored in RAM is lost when the 
    printer is turned off.
    reset
    To refresh the printer’s memory and erase the current print jobs.
    resident font
    A font that is stored permanently in the printer’s memory.
    resolution
    A measure of the fineness and clarity of images produced by the printer or 
    monitor. Printer resolution is measured in dots per inch. Monitor resolution is 
    measured in pixels.
    RITech
    Resolution Improvement Technology. A feature that smooths the jagged edges 
    of printed lines or shapes.
    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.
    sans serif font
    A font lacking serifs.
    scalable font
    See  outline font on page 461.
    serif
    The small decorative strokes that come off the main lines of a character.
    sRGB
    A standard default red green blue (RGB) color space that is device independent.
     
    						
    							Glossary463
    status sheet

    symbol set
    A collection of symbols and special characters. Symbols are assigned to specific 
    codes in a character table.
