Halftone
Using this method, the MultiPASS C50 produces shades of grey or of colours by
mapping dots to be printed. For colour printing, different coloured dots of ink are
placed closely together to create illusions of other colours.
Hue
A colour in the colour spectrum. Examples are red, green, and violet.

IEEE 1284
IEEE 1284 is the new specification standard for PC-to-peripheral bi-directional
parallel interface communications. The new standard was adopted by IEEE,
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, Inc., in 1993. Some of the
benefits it provides are: bi-directional communication between PCs and
peripheral devices, a higher speed data transfer rate, and protection against data
loss due to noise interference.
Ink Jet printer
A nonimpact printer that ejects ink into paper to form characters. The
MultiPASS C50 has a special type of ink jet printer built in called a Bubble Jet
printer.
Ink saver
You can enable or disable economy printing (ink saving feature) when receiving
faxes. By enabling the INKSAVER mode, ink consumption can be decreased by
as much as fifty percent, resulting in a longer effective cartridge life.
Ink tank
The special type of ink container housed by the BJ cartridge. The BC-21/21e
Colour BJ cartridge contains two ink tanks: one colour (which includes cyan,
yellow, magenta) and one black.
Intensity
The amount of colour. More intense or more saturated colours are more pure.
Less intense or less saturated colours are less vivid.
Interface
The connection between two devices that makes it possible for them to
communicate with each other. This MultiPASS C50 features a parallel interface,
which makes it compatible with IBM and similar personal computers.
