subnet mask

A series of 4 bytes whose bits identify the corresponding bits in a 4-byte

2D Overstrike

2D Overstrike is a PCL image quality control that causes each scan line
to be shifted by one pixel in both the fast and slow scan directions and
to be merged with the original scan line. The will cause very dark
patterns to be printed as a solid black line.

2-sided

The 2-sided selection enables or disables printing on both sides of the
paper.
