between nodes on a network. It also provides an authenticated

Inter-process communication mechanism.

SMTP

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the standard for e-mail

transmissions across the Internet. SMTP is a relatively simple,

text-based protocol, where one or more recipients of a message are

specified, and then the message text is transferred. It is a client-server

protocol, where the client transmits an email message to the server.

SSID

Service Set Identifier (SSID) is a name of a wireless local area network

(WLAN). All wireless devices in a WLAN use the same SSID in order to

communicate with each other. The SSIDs are case-sensitive and have a

maximum length of 32 characters.

Subnet Mask

The subnet mask is used in conjunction with the network address to

determine which part of the address is the network address and which

part is the host address.

TCP/IP

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP);

the set of communications protocols that implement the protocol stack

on which the Internet and most commercial networks run.

TCR

Transmission Confirmation Report (TCR) provides details of each

transmission such as job status, transmission result and number of

pages sent. This report can be set to print after each job or only after

failed transmissions.

TIFF

Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) is a variable-resolution bitmapped

image format. TIFF describes image data that typically come from

scanners. TIFF images make use of tags, keywords defining the

characteristics of the image that is included in the file. This flexible and

platform-independent format can be used for pictures that have been

made by various image processing applications.

Toner Cartridge

A kind of bottle or container used in a machine like a printer which

contains toner. Toner is a powder used in laser printers and

photocopiers, which forms the text and images on the printed paper.

Toner can be fused by by a combination of heat/pressure from the fuser,

causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.

TWAIN

An industry standard for scanners and software. By using a

TWAIN-compliant scanner with a TWAIN-compliant program, a scan can

be initiated from within the program. It is an image capture API for

Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh operating systems.

UNC Path

Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) is a standard way to access network

shares in Window NT and other Microsoft products. The format of a

UNC path is: \\\\

URL

Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents

and resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates

what protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the

domain name where the resource is located.

USB

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a standard that was developed by the

USB Implementers Forum, Inc., to connect computers and peripherals.

Unlike the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently connect a

single computer USB port to multiple peripherals.

Watermark

A watermark is a recognizable image or pattern in paper that appears

lighter when viewed by transmitted light. Watermarks were first

introduced in Bologna, Italy in 1282; they have been used by

papermakers to identify their product, and also on postage stamps,

currency, and other government documents to discourage

counterfeiting.

WEP

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security protocol specified in IEEE

802.11 to provide the same level of security as that of a wired LAN. WEP

provides security by encrypting data over radio so that it is protected as

it is transmitted from one end point to another.

WIA

Windows Imaging Architecture (WIA) is an imaging architecture that is

originally introduced in Windows Me and Windows XP. A scan can be

initiated from within these operating systems by using a WIA-compliant

scanner.

WPA

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a class of systems to secure wireless

(Wi-Fi) computer networks, which was created to improve upon the

security features of WEP.

WPA-PSK

WPA-PSK (WPA Pre-Shared Key) is special mode of WPA for small

business or home users. A shared key, or password, is configured in the

wireless access point (WAP) and any wireless laptop or desktop

devices. WPA-PSK generates a unique key for each session between a

wireless client and the associated WAP for more advanced security.

WPS

The Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for establishing a

wireless home network. If your wireless access point supports WPS, you

can configure the wireless network connection easily without a

computer.
