HP RTL
HP Raster Transfer Language: a language dened by HP to describe raster (bitmap) graphics.
HP-GL/2
HP Graphics Language 2: a language dened by HP to describe vector graphics.
I/O
Input/Output: this term describes the passing of data between one device and another.
ICC
The International Color Consortium, a group of companies that have agreed on a common standard for color proles.
Ink cartridge
A removable printer component that stores ink of a particular color and provides it to the printhead.
IP address
May mean an IPv4 address (most likely) or an IPv6 address.
IPSec
A sophisticated mechanism for providing network security by authenticating and encrypting IP packets sent between nodes
on a network. Each network node (computer or device) has an IPSec conguration. Applications are usually unaware whether
IPSec is being used or not.
IPv4 address
A unique identier that identies a particular node on an IPv4 network. An IPv4 address consists of four integers separated
by full stops. Most networks in the world use IPv4 addresses.
IPv6 address
A unique identier that identies a particular node on an IPv6 network. An IPv6 address consists of up to 8 groups of
hexadecimal digits separated by colons. Each groups contains up to 4 hexadecimal digits. Only a few new networks in the
world use IPv6 addresses.
LED
Light-Emitting Diode: a semiconductor device that emits light when electrically stimulated.
MAC address
Media Access Control address: a unique identier used to identify a particular device on a network. It is a lower-level identier
than the IP address. Thus, a device may have both a MAC address and an IP address.
Network
A network is a set of connections that pass data between computers and devices. Every device is able to communicate with
every other device in the same network. This allows data to be moved between computers and devices, and allows devices
such as printers to be shared between many computers.
Nozzle
One of many tiny holes in a printhead through which ink is deposited onto the paper.
Paper
A thin, at material made to be written or printed on; most commonly made from bers of some kind which are pulped,
dried and pressed.
Platen

Printer driver
Software that converts a print job in a generalized format into data suitable for a particular printer.
Printhead
A removable printer component that takes ink of one or more colors from the corresponding ink cartridge(s) and deposits it
on the paper, through a cluster of nozzles.
