Glossary
v
Gutter
Blank space on the left side or top of a printed page that can be increased by scaling
down text and graphics. This supports stapling and hole punching. When used with Duplex
printing, the enlarged blank space lines up evenly on both sides of the sheet. The larger blank
space is created by shifting the printable area to the right or down as much as one inch (25.4
mm).
H
Halftone screen
Imaging process that breaks down an image into dots. An experienced
user can adjust Halftone screen settings to create shades of gray in graphic images. Larger
dots spaced close together create darker shades, and smaller dots spaced farther apart cre-
ate lighter shades. Shading can be varied by adjusting the number of rows of dots, the angle
at which rows of dots are placed, and the shape of the dots.
J
Job accounting
An accounting system that records and controls the number of pages
printed by each account ID. Account IDs can be assigned at the printing system and stored
in the driver. Once account IDs are assigned, use Job accounting to print in the Copy Man-
agement mode.
Job storage
Job feature that saves print jobs for printing at a later time. Jobs are stored
permanently on the printing system's optional Hard disk: they are not deleted when the print-
ing system is powered off. Job Storage offers a secure print option using a four-digit Access
code. Secure print jobs cannot be printed until requested, using the Access code, at the print-
ing system's operation panel.
K
KM-NET
Software that provides network-wide management of printers and copiers.
Kyocera image refinement (KIR)
Imaging feature that smoothes the edges of text and
vector graphics.
M
Mailbox
Print job destination option that distributes print jobs to output trays when an op-
tional device such as a Sorter stacker, Document finisher, or Mailbox is installed. Compare
with Virtual Mailbox.
Manual duplex
Method for printing on both sides of a sheet when the printing system
does not support a duplex unit. After the first half of the print job has been printed, the job can
be flipped over and fed from the cassette for the second side printing.
Monochrome
Imaging mode that uses black toner only. When used with color models, all
color settings are constrained.
MP tray
Source tray used for labels, transparencies, envelopes, and custom printing me-
dia.
O
Offset jobs
Finishing mode that physically shifts each print job in the output tray. This fea-
ture requires an optional finishing device such as a Booklet stitcher or Multi finisher.
Operation panel
The keys and display on the printing system. Use the operation panel to
set options such as media type and RAM disk size, and to print jobs stored on the optional
Hard disk.
P
The Adobe portable document format (PDF) is independent of the application soft-
ware, hardware, and operating system used to create documents, and also of the output de-
vice on which they are displayed or printed.
