Paper jam:
A paper jam exists when the paper gets stuck during the printout,
thereby blocking the feeder or output.
Paper Size:
Paper Size refers to the paper format that will be printed. With a
rotation of the address block of 180°, the top margin value is auto-
matically calculated, so that the set value corresponds to the normal
direction of the address block.
Paper
recognition:
Paper recognition is necessary for maintaining the top margin value
and for stopping the printer in the event of paper jams. In each
case, the print object must be transported via the paper recognition.
Parallel
interface:
The parallel interface, also referred to as the Centronics interface, is
a connection of the computer to the printer. During this process,
8 Bits = 1 Byte are/is always transferred at one time (parallel).
Parity:
Parity is an error detection technique that is used with a serial inter-
face. Errors in transfer are recognized during data transfer. Here the
even number of the binary 1 is checked in an item unit (e.g. a byte).
PCL command:
PCL (= Printer Control Language) is the HP PCL Level 5 printer lan-
guage developed by Hewlett-Packard.
Pitch:

software into command codes for the printer. The printer driver
must be adapted to the software, as well as to the printer.
Printer
command:
The printer command is entered via the software, in order to carry
out changes in the active printer configuration.
Printhead gap:
The printhead gap influences the sharpness of the print. Too large a
gap causes a blurred print; too small a gap can smudge the ink.
Printhead
holder:
The printhead holder keeps the ink cartridge in position.
Printing area:
The printing area comprises the maximum width that is reachable
for the ink cartridge.
Resident fonts:
The installed fonts (resident fonts) have been installed in the
printer. They are a fixed component of the printer.
Resolution:
A measurement of image definition. It is measured in dots per inch
(dpi = dots per inch).
Sans serif font:
