Toner Cartridge
A kind of bottle within a machine like 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 melted by the heat of the fuser,
causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.
TWAIN

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.
