Reset

To restore the printer to all or some of its default

settings.

ROM

Read-Only Memory.

RPRINTER emulation

Software run on a client PC (connect

to a network-indirect printer) or a XEROX network interface

card that identifies the printer as a remote printer.

RUI

Remote User Interface. The RUI is a DS/P component

that runs on a PC and allows the user to select printer settings

from the PC rather than at the printer’s Control Panel.

S

Scalable fonts

Fonts described by formulae that produce a

font outline. The formulae can be used to scale the font up or

down (by point size).

SDF

See Standard Data File.

Serial port

A type of port in which data is transmitted and

received in bits rather than bytes. Typically used for printing

over longer distances.

Server

A special-purpose computer system (typically a PC

using a 80386 or 80486 CPU, or another processor based on

the Motorola 68000 CPU) that is connected to the local area

network and controls shared peripherals (PCs, printers, etc.).

Service Coordinator

The NLM portion of SMS that obtains

job and status information from direct-connect printers and

reports it to users running SMS Client Software. The Service

Coordinator also acquires and stores accounting data

generated by the printer assigned to it during SETUP. (The

relationship between the printer and the Service Coordinator

is stored in the Configuration File.)

SIMM

Single In-line Memory Module. A SIMM has several

connected memory chips and connects to a slot on the printer

controller board to increase the available RAM on the printer.

The 4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps printers have two SIMM

slots and will accept SIMMs with 4 MB or 16 MB of memory,

running at 70 ns (nanoseconds).
