APPENDIX 5  GLOSSARIES 
Bar code 
A code which represents alphanumeric characters 
by using a series of black and white stripes in 
different widths.  Bar codes are used in various 
industrial fields: Manufacturing, Hospitals, 
Libraries, Retail, Transpor tation, Warehousing, etc. 
Reading bar codes is a fast and accurate means of 
capturing data while keyboard entry tends to be 
slow and inaccurate. 
 
Batch mode 
Issue mode that continuously prints media until the 
specified number of media has been printed. 
 
Black mark  
A mark printed on the media so that the printer can 
maintain a constant print position by detecting this 
mark. 
 
Black mark sensor  
A reflective sensor which detects the difference of 
potential between a black mark and print area to 
find the print start position.  
 
Cut mode 
One of the printer modes of operation where an 
optional cutter module is installed to automatically 
cut media from the media roll after they are printed.  
The print command can specify to cut every media 
or to cut after a set number of media have been 
printed.  
 
Cutter module 
A device used to cut the media.   
 
DHCP 
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol 
A communications protocol which lets a network 
administrator temporarily assign an IP address to a 
computer plugged into a different place in the 
network.  
 
DPI 
Dot Per Inch 
The unit used to express print density.  
Feed gap sensor  
A transmissive sensor which detects the difference 
of potential between the labe l gaps and the label to 
find the print position of the label.   
 
Font 
A complete set of alphanumeric characters in one 
style of type.  E.g. Helvetica, Courier, Times 
 
Gap  
Clearance between labels 
 
IPS 
Inch per second 
The unit used to express print speed. 
 
Label 
A type of media with adhesive backing. 
 
LCD 
Liquid Crystal Display 
Installed on the operation panel and displays 
operation modes, error message and so on.   
 
Media 
Material on which data is  printed by the printer.  
Label, tag paper, fanfold  paper, perforated paper, 
etc. 
 
Plug and Play 
When Plug and Play is enabled, the PC will 
automatically identify the printer (if the PC 
supports Plug & Play), optimize the system 
resource (IRQ and DMA), and display a message 
prompting a printer driver installation. 
 
Pre-printed media 
A type of media on which characters, logos, and 
other designs have been already printed.

Printer IP address 
A 32-bit address of a printer connected to TCP/IP 
network, which identifies the network printer.  An 
IP address is written as 4 sets of numbers, 
separated by periods.  
 
Print head element 
The thermal print head consists of a single line of 
tiny resistive elements and when current is allowed 
to flow through each element it heats up causing a 
small dot to be burned  onto thermal paper or a 
small dot of ink to be transferred from a thermal 
ribbon to ordinary paper.  
 
Print speed 
The speed at which printing occurs.  This speed is 
expressed in units of ips (inches per second). 
 
Resolution  
The degree of detail to which an image can be 
duplicated.  The minimum unit of divided image is 
called a pixel.  As the  resolution becomes higher, 
the number of pixels increased, resulting in more 
detailed image 
 
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) 
A method of automatically identifying people or 
objects using radio waves.  In case of the B-SX 
series, the RFID module writes digital information 
to an RFID tag mounted inside labels or tag paper 
while the printer is printing data on them.  The 
RFID tag is a microchip attached to an antenna.  
The microchip holds data and the antenna enables 
the tag to send and receive data. 
 
Ribbon 
An inked film used to transfer an image onto the 
media.  In the thermal tran sfer printing, it is heated 
by the thermal print head , causing an image to be 
transferred onto the media. 
 
Strip mode 
One of the printer modes of operation where an 
optional strip module is installed to separate 
printed labels from the backing paper one by one. 
 
Strip module 
A device used to remove labels from the backing 
paper. 
 
 
Supply 
Media and ribbon 
 
Tag  
A type of media with no adhesive.  Usually tags 
are made of cardboard or other durable material.  
 
Thermal direct printing 
A printing method using no ribbon, but thermal 
media which reacts to heat.  The thermal print head 
heats the thermal media directly, causing print 
image to be printed on the media. 
  
Thermal print head 
A print head using thermal transfer or thermal 
direct printing method.  
 
Thermal transfer printing 
A printing method that the thermal print head heats 
an ink or resin coating on the ribbon against the 
media, causing the ink/resin to transfer onto the 
media.   
 
Threshold setting 
A sensor setting operation to have the printer 
maintain a constant print position of pre-printed 
media.   
 
USB (Universal Serial Bus) 
An interface that is used to connect peripherals, 
such as a printer, keyboard, mouse.  The USB 
allows disconnection of a USB device without 
turning off the power.  
 
Web printer 
The web printer function allows you to browse the 
printer status on the PC, issue media, check or 
change the settings, or download the firmware to 
the printer.  For details, refer to the  Network 
Specification .
