A control panel is a flat area where control or monitoring instruments are 
displayed. They are typically found in top or front of the machine. 

This is the printing term used for toner usage measurement on printing 
and generally used as 5% coverage. 5% coverage means that an A4 
sided paper has about 5% image or text on it. So, if the paper or original 
has complicated images or lots of text on it, the coverage will be over 5% 
and at the same time, toner usage will be as much as the coverage.

The first set values.

This is the measurement of resolution which is used for printing or 
scanning. Generally, more dots per inch result in a higher resolution, 
more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size. 

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, which is not small amount.

This is the part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media. 
It consists of two hot rollers. After toner is transferred onto the paper, the 
fuser unit applies heat and pressure to ensure that the toner stays on the 
paper permanently, which is why paper is warm when it comes out of a 
laser printer.

Shades of gray that represent light and dark portions of an image when 
color images are converted to grayscale; colors are represented by 
various shades of gray.

This is an image type that simulates grayscale by varying the number of 
dots. Highly colored areas consist of a large number of dots, while lighter 
areas consist of a smaller number of dots.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an 
international standard-setting body composed of representatives from 
national standards bodies. It produces world-wide industrial and 
commercial standards.

A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that indicates the 
status of a machine. 

Media such as papers, labels, and transparencies which can be used on 
a printer, a scanner, a fax or, a copier. 

A mechanism that makes a virtual image for print using a laser beam 
emitted from a laser printer, and it is usually green or gray-colored and 
cylinder-shaped. An exposing unit of a drum is slowly worn away by its 
usage of the printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it 
becomes scratched from grit in paper.

Portable Document Format (PDF) is a proprietary file format developed 
by Adobe Systems for representing two-dimensional documents in a 
device-independent and resolution-independent format.

Pages Per Minute. PPM shows the printer's speed, how many pages a 
printer can actually print per minute.

An interface for a device driver, this allows software to interact with the 
device driver using standard input/output system calls, which simplifies 
many tasks. 

The sharpness of an image, measured in dots per inch (dpi). The higher 
the dpi, the greater the resolution.

It is a kind of bottle within a machine like a printer which contains toner. 
Toner is a powder used in laser printers and photocopiers which forms the 
text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be melted by the heat of 
the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.

Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents and 
resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates what 
protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the domain 
name where the resource is located.

Universal serial bus (USB) is a standard that was developed by the USB 
Implementers Forum, Inc., to connect computers and peripherals. Unlike 
the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently connect a single 
computer USB port to multiple peripherals.
