REPLACING THE FITTED PLUG (FOR UK ONLY)

Important

The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp plug and has a 13 amp fuse. When you change or examine the fuse, you must re-fit the correct 13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse cover. If you have lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until you have another fuse cover.

Contact the people from you purchased the machine. The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be suitable. However, some buildings (mainly old ones) do not have normal

13 amp plug sockets. You need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove the moulded plug.

If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.

You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you plug it into a socket.

Important warning:

You must earth this machine. The wires in the mains lead have the following color code:

• Green and Yellow: Earth

• Blue: Neutral

• Brown: Live

If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colors marked in your plug, do the following: You must connect the green and yellow wire to the pin marked by the letter “E” or by the safety ‘Earth symbol’ or colored green and yellow or

green. You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “N” or colored black. You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter “L” or colored red. You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.

INTRODUCING USEFUL NETWORK PROGRAMS

There are several programs available to setup the network settings easily in network environment. For the network administrator especially, managing several machines on the network is possible.

Before using the programs below, set the IP adress first.

SyncThru™ Web Admin Service

Web-based machine management solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin Service provides you with an efficient way of managing network devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network machines from any site with corporate internet access. Download this program from http://solution.samsungprinter.com.

Network setup (ML-2580 Series only)_28

Printing network configuration report

You can print a Network Configuration Report from the machine's control panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up a network and troubleshooting problems.

To print the report:

In ready mode, press and hold the (cancel button) for about 5 seconds. You can find your machine’s MAC address and IP address.

For example:

• MAC Address : 00:15:99:41:A2:78

Page 33

• IP Address : 192.0.0.192

Setting IP address

Firstly, you have to set up an IP address for network printing and managements. In most cases a new IP address will be automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server located on the network.

In a few situations the IP address must be set manually. This is called a static IP and is often required in corporate Intranets for security reasons.

• DHCP IP assignment: Connect your machine to the network, and wait a

few minutes for the DHCP server to assign an IP address to the machine. Then, print the Network Configuration Report as explained above. If the report shows that the IP address has changed, the assignment was successful. You will see the new IP address in the report.

• Static IP assignment: Use SetIP program to change the IP address

from your computer.

In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network administrator to set this address for you.

IP setting using SetIP Program (Windows)

This program is for manually setting the network IP address of your machine using its MAC address to communicate with the machine. A MAC address is the hardware serial number of the network interface and can be found in the Network Configuration Report.

This chapter provides information on how to load print media into your machine.

This chapter includes:

• Selecting print media

• Changing the tray size

• Loading paper in the tray

• Printing on special media

• Using the output support

SELECTING PRINT MEDIA

You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. Always use print media that meet the guidelines for use with your machine.

Guidelines to select the print media

Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the following problems:

• Poor print quality

• Increased paper jams

• Premature wear on the machine.

Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are important factors that affect the machine’s performance and the output quality. When you choose print materials, consider the following:

• The type, size and weight of the print media for your machine are

described in print media specifications. (See "Print media specifications" on page 69.)

• Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate for

your project.

• Brightness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce

sharper, more vibrant images.

• Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how

crisp the printing looks on the paper.

• Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this section and still not produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which cannot be controlled.

• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it meets the requirements specified in this user’s guide.

Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause problems, requiring repairs. Such repairs are not covered by the warranty or service agreements.

The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media type used. (See "Print media specifications" on page 69.)

3. After inserting paper into the tray, adjust the support guide so that it

lightly touches the paper stack.

4. Squeeze the paper width guides and slide them to the desired paper

size marked at the bottom of the tray.

• Do not push the paper width guide too far causing the media to

warp.

• If you do not adjust the paper width guide, it may cause paper

jams.

4. Set the paper type and size for the tray 1. (See "Setting the default tray

and paper" on page 34.)

If you experience problems with paper feeding, check whether the paper meets the media specification. Then try placing one sheet at a time in the manual tray. (See "Print media specifications" on page 69.)

Manual tray

The manual tray can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes. It is useful for single page printing on letterhead or colored paper.

Tips on using the manual tray

• If you select Manual Feeder for Source from your software

application, you need to press (cancel button) each time you print a page and load only one type, size and weight of print media at a time in the manual tray.

• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper while printing when there is

still paper in the manual tray. This also applies to other types of print media.

• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into

the manual tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.

• Always load the specified print media only to avoid paper jams and

print quality problems. (See "Print media specifications" on page 69.)

• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading

them into the manual tray.

• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp-and well-creased folds.

• Do not use stamped envelopes.

• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining,

self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.

• Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.

• Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to

the corner of the envelope.

• Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that

folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. To view the fusing temperature, check your machine’s specification. (See "General specifications" on page 67.) The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser.

• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm from

the edges of the envelope.

• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.

Transparency

To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in laser printers.

• Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand

machine’s fusing temperature.

• Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.

• Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long periods of

time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.

• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.

• To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged

sunlight.

• Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn

edges.

• Do not use transparencies that separates from the backing sheet.

• To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the

printed sheets stack up as they are begin printed out.

• Recommended media: Transparency for a color laser printer by Xerox,

such as 3R 91331 (A4), 3R 2780 (Letter)

Labels

To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser machines.

• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:

- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at your

machine’s fusing temperature. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature. (See "General specifications" on page 67.)

- Arrangement : Only use labels with no exposed backing between

them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.

- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm

of curl in any direction.

- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other

indications of separation.

• Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.

Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.

• Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The

adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine.

• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are

wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.

Card stock/ Custom-sized paper

Postcards, cards and other custom-sized materials can be printed with this machine.

• Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm (3.00 inches) wide or 127 mm

(5.00 inches) long.

• In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches)

away from the edges of the material.

USING THE OUTPUT SUPPORT

The surface of the output tray may become hot if you print a large number of pages at once. Make sure that you do not touch the surface, and do not allow children near it.

The printed pages stack on the output support, and the output support will help the printed pages to align. The printer sends output to the output tray by default. To use the output tray, make sure that the rear cover is closed.

• Letterhead/ Preprinted paper must be printed with heat-resistant ink that

will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s specification to view the fusing temperature. (See "General specifications" on page 67.)

• Letterhead/ Preprinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not

adversely affect machine rollers.

• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to

prevent changes during storage.

• Before you load letterhead/preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the

paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.

Photo

• Make sure not to use the inkjet photo paper with this machine. It could

cause damage to the machine.

USING TONER LOW ALERT (ML-2580 SERIES ONLY)

If the amount of toner in the cartridge is low, the LED blinks red. You can set the option for this LED to blink or not.

1. Ensure that you have installed the printer driver with the provided

Printer Software CD.

2. Double-click the Smart Panel icon on the Windows task bar (or Notification Area in Linux). You can also click Smart Panel on the status bar in Mac OS X.

3. Click Printer Setting.

4. Click Setting > Toner Low Alert. Select the appropriate setting and then click Apply.

CLEANING A MACHINE

If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty environment, you need to clean your machine regularly to keep the best printing condition and use your machine longer.

• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.

• If your machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with toner, we recommend you use cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air and might be harmful to you.

Printing a cleaning sheet

If you are experiencing blurred or smeared printouts, you can clear the problem by printing a cleaning sheet, provided by your machine.

To print the cleaning sheet:

In ready mode, press and hold the (cancel button) for about 8 seconds.

• OPC cleaning sheet: Cleans the OPC drum of the toner cartridge.

This process will produce a page with toner debris, which should be discarded.

Your machine automatically picks up a sheet of paper from the tray and prints out a cleaning sheet with dust or toner particles on it.

Cleaning the inside

During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears and reduces these problems.

1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to

cool down.

2. Open the front cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean

flat surface

• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.

• Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

Cleaning the outside

Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the machine.

Maintenance_54

Page 59

3. With a dry, lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the

toner cartridge area.

While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to damage the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinner to clean. Printing quality problems can occur and cause damage to the machine.

4. Locate the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the top of the cartridge

compartment and gently swab the glass to see if dirt turns the white cotton black.

5. Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the front cover.

6. Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on.

- Humidity range less than 20% and not greater than 80%.

- An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature.

- Direct sunlight or room light.

- Dusty places.

- A car for a long period of time.

- An environment where corrosive gases are present.

- An environment with salty air.

Handling instructions

• Do not touch the surface of the photosensitive drum in the cartridge.

• Do not expose the cartridge to unnecessary vibrations or shock.

• Never manually rotate the drum, especially in the reverse direction; this

can cause internal damage and toner spillage.

Use of non-Samsung and refilled toner cartridge

Samsung Electronics does not recommend or approve the use of non-Samsung brand toner cartridges in your printer including generic, store brand, refilled, or remanufactured toner cartridges.

Samsung’s printer warranty does not cover damage to the machine caused by the use of a refilled, remanufactured, or non-Samsung brand toner cartridge.

Estimated cartridge life

Estimated cartridge life (the life of the toner cartridge yield) depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. The actual print-out number may vary depending on the print density of the pages you print on, operating environment, printing interval, media type, and/or media size. For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the consumption of the toner is high and you may need to change the cartridge more often.

TIPS FOR MOVING & STORING YOUR MACHINE

• When moving the machine, do not tilt or turn it upside down. Otherwise,

the inside of the machine may be contaminated by toner, which can cause damage to the machine or bad print quality.

• When moving the machine, make sure at least two people are holding

the machine securely.

STORING THE TONER CARTRIDGE

Toner cartridges contain components that are sensitive to light, temperature, and humidity. Samsung suggests users follow the recommendations to ensure the optimum performance, highest quality, and longest life from your new Samsung toner cartridge.

Store this cartridge in the same environment as the printer it will be used in; this should be in controlled office temperature and humidity conditions. The toner cartridge should remain in its original, unopened package until installation – If original packaging is not available, cover the top opening of the cartridge with paper and store in a dark cabinet.

Opening the cartridge package prior to use dramatically shortens its useful shelf and operating life. Do not store on the floor. If the toner cartridge is removed from the printer, always store the cartridge:

• Inside the protective bag from the original package.

• Correct side up in a horizontal position (not standing on end).

• Do not store consumables in;

- Temperature greater than 40°C (104°F).

This chapter gives helpful information for what to do if you encounter an error.

This chapter includes:

• Redistributing toner

• Tips for avoiding paper jams

• Clearing paper jams

• Solving other problems

REDISTRIBUTING TONER

When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:

• White streaks or light printing occurs.

• The LED blinks red.

If this happens, you can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the toner.

1. Open the front cover.

2. Pull the toner cartridge out.

3. Thoroughly roll the cartridge five or six times to distribute the toner

evenly inside the cartridge.

place completely.

5. Close the front cover. Ensure that the cover is securely closed.

TIPS FOR AVOIDING PAPER CURLS

1. Open the rear cover.

2. Pull down the pressure lever on each side.

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

4. Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge into

the opening in the machine. Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within the

machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it locks into

TIPS FOR AVOIDING PAPER JAMS

By selecting the correct media types, most paper jams can be avoided. When a paper jam occurs, refer to the next guidelines.

• Ensure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly. (See

"Loading paper in the tray" on page 37.)

• Do not overload the tray. Ensure that the paper level is below the paper

capacity mark on the inside of the tray.

• Do not remove paper from the tray while your machine is printing.

• Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading.

• Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.

• Do not mix paper types in a tray.

• Use only recommended print media.

• Ensure that the recommended side of the print media is facing down in

the tray, or facing up in the manual tray.

CLEARING PAPER JAMS

• Check if the machine is started. Open

Printers configuration and select your machine on the printers list. Look at the description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains Stopped string, press the Start button. After that normal operation of the machine should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occurred.

• Check if your application has special print

option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter, then remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select “print” -> “Setup printer” and edit command line parameter in the command item.

It is a known problem that occurs when a color machine is used on version 8.51 or earlier of Ghostscript, 64-bit Linux OS, and has been reported to bugs.ghostscript.com as Ghostscript Bug 688252. The problem is solved in AFPL Ghostscript v. 8.52 or above. Download the latest version of AFPL Ghostscript from http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghostscript/ and install it to solve this problem.

Avoid changing print job parameters (via LPR GUI, for example) while a print job is in progress. Known versions of CUPS server break the print job whenever print options are changed and then try to restart the job from the beginning. Since Unified Linux Driver locks the port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps the port locked and unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurs, try to release the port by selecting Release port in

Port configuration window.

Common Macintosh problems

CONDITION SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS

The machine does not print PDF files correctly. Some parts of graphics, text, or illustrations are missing.

The document has printed, but the print job has not disappeared from the spooler in Mac OS X10.3.2.

Some letters are not displayed normally during the Cover page printing.

When printing a document in Macintosh with Acrobat Reader 6.0 or higher, colors print incorrectly.

Refer to Macintosh User’s Guide that came with your computer for further information on Macintosh error messages.

Printing the PDF file as an image may enable the file to print. Turn on Print As Image from the Acrobat printing options.

It will take longer to print when you print a PDF file as an image.

Update your MAC OS to OS MAC OS X 10.3.3. or higher.

Mac OS cannot create the font during the Cover page printing. The English alphabet and numbers are displayed normally on the Cover page.

Make sure that the resolution setting in your machine driver matches the one in Acrobat Reader.

Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within the machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it locks into place completely.

3. Take a new toner cartridge out of its package.

4. Remove the paper protecting the toner cartridge by pulling the packing

tape.

5. Locate the sealing tape at the end of the toner cartridge. Carefully pull

the tape completely out of the cartridge and discard it.

• The sealing tape should be longer than 60 cm when correctly removed.

• Holding the toner cartridge, pull the sealing tape straight to remove it from the cartridge. Be careful not to cut the tape. If this happens, you cannot use the toner cartridge.

• Refer to the helpful pictures on the cartridge wrapping paper.

6. Slowly shake the cartridge five or six times to distribute the toner evenly

inside the cartridge. It will assure maximum copies per cartridge.

8. Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

glossary

The following glossary helps you get familiar with the product by understanding the terminologies commonly used with printing as well as mentioned in this user’s guide.

802.11

802.11 is a set of standards for wireless local area network (WLAN) communication, developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE 802).

802.11b/g

802.11b/g can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band.

802.11b supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps; 802.11g up to 54 Mbps.

802.11b/g devices may occasionally suffer interference from microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and Bluetooth devices.

Access point

Access Point or Wireless Access Point (AP or WAP) is a device that connects wireless communication devices together on wireless local area networks (WLAN), and acts as a central transmitter and receiver of WLAN radio signals.

ADF

An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a mechanism that will automatically feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan some amount of the paper at once.

AppleTalk

AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc for computer networking. It was included in the original Macintosh (1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.

BIT Depth

A computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to represent the color of a single pixel in a bitmapped image. Higher color depth gives a broader range of distinct colors. As the number of bits increases, the number of possible colors becomes impractically large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly called as monochrome or black and white.

BMP

A bitmapped graphics format used internally by the Microsoft Windows graphics subsystem (GDI), and used commonly as a simple graphics file format on that platform.

CCD

Charge Coupled Device (CCD) is a hardware which enables the scan job. CCD Locking mechanism is also used to hold the CCD module to prevent any damage when you move the machine.

Collation

Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collation is selected, the device prints an entire set before printing additional copies.

Control Panel

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

Coverage

It is the printing term used for a toner usage measurement on printing. For example, 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 higher and at the same time, a toner usage will be as much as the coverage.

CSV

Comma Separated Values (CSV). A type of file format, CSV is used to exchange data between disparate applications. The file format, as it is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a pseudo standard throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.

DADF

A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a mechanism that will automatically feed and flip over an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan on both sides of the paper.

Default

The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its box state, reset, or initialized.

DHCP

A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server networking protocol. A DHCP server provides configuration parameters specific to the DHCP client host requesting, generally, information required by the client host to participate on an IP network. DHCP also provides a mechanism for allocation of IP addresses to client hosts.

BOOTP

Bootstrap Protocol. A network protocol used by a network client to obtain its IP address automatically. This is usually done in the bootstrap process of computers or operating systems running on them. The BOOTP servers assign the IP address from a pool of addresses to each client. BOOTP enables 'diskless workstation' computers to obtain an IP address prior to loading any advanced operating system.

DIMM

Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM), a small circuit board that holds memory. DIMM stores all the data within the machine like printing data, received fax data.

Glossary_72

Page 77

DNS

The Domain Name Server (DNS) is a system that stores information associated with domain names in a distributed database on networks, such as the Internet.

EtherTalk

A suite of protocols developed by Apple Computer for computer networking. It was included in the original Macintosh (1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.

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 flip 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 can print double-sided of paper.

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 telephone 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 simulation, which concerns an abstract model of the system being simulated, often considering its internal state.

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.

FTP

A File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a commonly used protocol for exchanging files over any network that supports the TCP/IP protocol (such as the Internet or an intranet).

Fuser Unit

The part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media. It consists of a hot roller and a back-up roller. 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.

Gateway

A connection between computer networks, or between a computer network and a telephone line. It is very popular, as it is a computer or a network that allows access to another computer or network.

Grayscale

A 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.

Halftone

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.

HDD

Hard Disk Drive (HDD), commonly referred to as a hard drive or hard disk, is a non-volatile storage device which stores digitally-encoded data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces.

IEEE
