bit
Abbreviation for Binary Digit. The smallest unit of information (data quantity)
on a computer or printer. Displays data using 0 or 1.

BMP
Abbreviation for Bitmap. A file format for saving image data which uses the
.bmp extension. Commonly used on Windows platforms. You can specify
the color depth from monochrome (2 values) to full color (16,777,216
colors). Images are not usually compressed when saved.

BOOTP
Abbreviation for Bootstrap Protocol. A protocol in which a client computer
on a TCP/IP network automatically specifies the network settings from the
server. Currently, DHCP, which is an advanced protocol based on BOOTP,
is mainly used.

Byte
Unit of information (data quantity) on a computer or printer. Configured as 1
byte equals 8 bits.

Client
A computer that uses the services provided by a server through a network.
Default gateway
A device, such as a computer or router, used as a “gateway” to access
computers not on the same LAN.
computers not on the same LAN.
DHCP
Abbreviation for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A protocol in which
a client computer on a TCP/IP network automatically specifies the network
settings from the server. With collective management of the IP address for
DHCP clients on the DHCP server, you can avoid duplication of an address
and you can build a network easily.

DNS
Abbreviation for Domain Name System. A system that acquires the support-
ed IP addresses from host names in a network environment. DNS allows the
user to access other computers over a network by specifying host names,
instead of difficult to memorize and understand IP addresses.

DPI (dpi)
Abbreviation for Dots Per Inch. A resolution unit used by printers and scan-
ners. Indicates how many dots per inch are represented in an image. The
higher the value, the higher the resolution.
