drum
The part of the printer mechanism where the image is formed and
transferred to the paper.
EEPROM
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. The
portion of the printer’s memory holding SelecType’s default
settings. It may be erased and reprogrammed, enabling you to
change the default settings, but it also saves settings even when
the printer is turned off.
electrophotographic process
The printing method used by the EPL printer. In this process, a
low-power laser exposes selected portions of a revolving
photosensitive drum. Toner is then attracted to the exposed areas
of the drum to form a mirror image of the page to be printed. The
toner adhering to the drum is then transferred to the surface of the
paper where it is fused in place using a process combining heat
and pressure.
engine
The part of the printer that includes the electrophotographic
processing unit, engine controller, and paper transport mechanisms.
font
The complete character set of a given design. See Appendix B for a
list of fonts available on the EPL-7500.
font caching
A feature which keeps the most frequently used characters in
printer memory.
hexadecimal (hex)
