In this case, HP recommends that you wait at least 3 hours before turning on the printer or installing the ink cartridg es, to allow the condensate to evaporate.

Glossary Bonjour Apple Computers trade name for its implementation of the IETF Zeroconf specification framework, a computer network technology that is used in Apple Mac OS X 10.2 and later. Use it to discover the services that are available on a local area network (LAN). It was originally known as Rendezvous. CALS/G4 CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-c ycle Support) is an initiative of the US Department of Defense for electronically capturing military documentation and link ing related information. The initiative has developed a number of standard sp ecifications (protocols) for the exchange of electronic data with commercial suppliers. These standards are often referred to as simply CALS. CALS standards have been adopted by several other allied nations. Color accuracy The ability to print colors that match the original image as closely as possible, given th e fact that all devices have a limited color gamut and might not be ab le to match certain colors precisely. Color consistency The ability to print the same colors in a particular print job, from print to print and from printer to printer. Color model A system of representing colors by numbers. An example of such a system is RGB or CMYK. Color space A color model in which each color is repesented by a specific set of numbers. Many different color spaces can use the same color model: for instance , monitors generally use the RGB color model, but they have different color spaces, because a particular set of RGB numbers re sults in different colors on different monitors. Cutter A printer component that slides back and forth across the platen to cut the paper. ESD ElectroStatic Discharge. Static electricity is common in daily life. It is the spark when touching the car door, or the cling of clothing. Although controlled static electrici ty has some useful benefits, uncontrolled electrostatic discharges are one of the main hazards to the elec tronics products. Therefore, to prevent damage some precautions are needed when setting up the product, or ha ndling ESD sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectan+cy of the de vice. One way to minimize uncontrolled ESDs, and therefore reduce this type of damage is by touching any expose d grounded part of the product (mainl y metal parts) before handling ESD sensitive devices (such as the printheads or ink cartridges). Additionally, to reduce the generation of electrostatic charge in your body try to avoid working in a carpet ed area, and keep your body movements to a minimum when handling ESD sensitive devices. Also, avoid working in low humidity environments. Ethernet A popular computer networking tech nology for local area networks. Firmware Software that controls your printers functionality and is stored semi-permanently in the printer (it can be updated). Gamut The range of colors and density valu es reproducible on an output device, such as a printer or monitor. 204 Glossary ENWW
HP-GL/2 Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language 2: a language defined by HP to describe vector graphics. I/O Input/Output: this term describes the passin g of data between one device and another. ICC The International Color Consortium, a group of compan ies that have agreed on a common standard for color profiles. Ink cartridge A removable printer component that stores ink of a particular color and provides it to the printhead. IP address A unique identifier that identifies a particular node on a TCP/IP network. It consists of four integers separated by dots. Jetdirect HPs brand name for its series of print servers that allow a printer to be connected directly to a local area network. LED Light-Emitting Diode: a semiconductor device th at emits light when electrically stimulated. MAC address Media Access Control address: a unique id entifier used to identify a particular device on a network. It is a lower- level identifier than the IP address. Thus, a devi ce may have both a MAC address and an IP address. Nozzle One of many tiny holes in a printhead thro ugh which ink is deposited onto the paper. Paper A thin, flat material made to be written or printed on; most commonly made from fibers of some kind which are pulped, dried, and pressed. Platen The flat surface within the printer over which the paper passes while it is being printed on. 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 mo re colors from the corresponding ink cartridge(s) and deposits it on the paper, through a cluster of nozzles. Rendezvous Apple Computers original name for its ne tworking software later known as Bonjour. TCP/IP Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol: the co mmunications protocols on which the Internet is based. USB Universal Serial Bus: a standard serial bu s designed to connect devices to computers. ENWW Glossary 205
