Term Definition
CR-80 A card dimension standard of 2.125" X 3.370" (+/-0.002" W, +/-
0.005" L) or 53.975 X 85.598 mm.

Engineering Drawing No. D400145 in the appendix.
DC (Direct Current) Electronic flow that is unidirectional, flowing from the positive (+)
to negative (-) of a power source.
Default A setting or parameter that comes preset from the factory in
Driver or Firmware. Performance parameters can be customized
in the Driver, but can be reset to the factory values usually
through the push of the default button. The default values for the
Firmware are usually denoted on a label attached to the Printer.
Defrag Abbreviation for defragmenting. The process of reformatting data
on a hard drive so that it uses space more efficiently.
Dither A system of distributing dots to control the hue, brightness and/or
saturation. In monochrome printing, this controls the brightness.
In color printing, dithering can supply a larger color gamut than
non-dithering. In the Driver, dither modes can be selected to
provide better image quality depending on the type of image to be
printed.
Dongle A peripheral that attaches to a port to act as a key for an installed
application. The PC is able to run that application only when the
dongle is installed. Typically, it works as a pass-through device
and is connected in serial to the parallel cable.
Dot The smallest unit of an image that the Printer is able to produce.
The smaller the dot, see dot pitch, the sharper the image.
