I-8
star network:
A form of networking where each computer is connected to a hub, and
all network traffic flows through the hub.
stop bits:
The number of bits that specify the end of a serial transmission frame.
straight through paper path:
A way of passing paper through the printer without it
bending. Sometimes heavy or easily damaged paper can only be printed this way.
Usually set up by using the multipurpose feeder and a rear output tray.
smoothing:
A process that makes the text and graphics of some applications look
better.
startup disk:
The disk (usually a hard disk) containing the System and Finder files
used to run the Macintosh.
System 7, OS 8:
Various versions of the Macintosh system software (“Mac OS”).
system administrator:
The person responsible for keeping a network running
smoothly. This person may be needed to configure computers and printers con-
nected to a network.
System Folder:
The folder containing Macintosh System and Finder files used to start
and run the Macintosh.
terminator:
A small device connected at the ends of certain network and SCSI
cabling. If you do not use a terminator where needed, the network or SCSI chain will
operate erratically or may not operate at all.
toner:
A special plastic powder in the toner cartridge that “fuses” to the paper to
create an image.
toner cartridge:
A plastic box containing toner; the cartridge is placed in the printer
to supply toner during the printing process. Toner cartridges often also contain an
imaging drum.
TrueType:
A file format for fonts which can be scaled to any size. Supporting soft-
ware is built in to Windows and Macintosh system software. One of the two major
font file formats (the other is Adobe Type 1).
vector images:
Images that are described in computer memory using a series of
instructions on how to draw each part. Because there’s no reference to the quality of
the printer or other output device, vector images can be easily scaled up or down.
Eventually the instructions are converted to a bitmap image (or rasterized) in the
printer when the image is printed. PostScript or EPS format files are an example of
vector images.
