The printer’s permanent memory retains the default settings specified using the printer setup mode.
  • Page 250 GLOSSARY OF TERMS Serial interface A standard computer interface. Information is transferred between devices over a single wire (although other wires are used for control). A serial interface can use an interface cable greater than 3 meters (10 feet). A long cable is often necessary in networking environments, where the printer may be shared.
  • Page 251 GLOSSARY OF TERMS Tractor feed A method for feeding continuous forms forward for printing. Holes on the sides of the forms fit over sprockets on two tractors located inside the printer. The forms are pushed for rear feeding. Unidirectional printing Printing is performed in one direction only, left to right.
