Dot Matrix Printer
A dot matrix printer refers to a type of computer printer with a print head that runs back and forth on the page
and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like a typewriter.

DPI
Dots Per Inch (DPI) is a measurement of resolution that is used for scanning and printing. Generally, higher DPI
results in a higher resolution, more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size.

DRPD
Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection. Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables a user to use
a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers.

Duplex
A mechanism that will automatically turn over a sheet of paper so that the machine can print (or scan) on both
sides of the paper. A printer equipped with a Duplex Unit can print on both sides of paper during one print cycle.

Duty Cycle
Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer performance for a month. Generally the printer
has the lifespan limitation such as pages per year. The lifespan means the average capacity of print-outs,
usually within the warranty period. For example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 pages per month assuming 20
working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages a day.

ECM
Error Correction Mode (ECM) is an optional transmission mode built into Class 1 fax machines or fax modems.
It automatically detects and corrects errors in the fax transmission process that are sometimes caused by tele-
phone line noise.

Emulation
Emulation is a technique of one machine obtaining the same results as another.
An emulator duplicates the functions of one system with a different system, so that the second system behaves
like the first system. Emulation focuses on exact reproduction of external behavior, which is in contrast to simu-
lation, which concerns an abstract model of the system being simulated, often considering its internal state.

Ethernet
Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). It defines wiring
and signaling for the physical layer, and frame formats and protocols for the media access control (MAC)/data
link layer of the OSI model. Ethernet is mostly standardized as IEEE 802.3. It has become the most widespread
LAN technology in use during the 1990s to the present.

FDI
Foreign Device Interface (FDI) is a card installed inside the machine to allow a third party device such as a coin
operated device or a card reader. Those devices allow the pay-for-print service on your machine.
