Toner
A black, resin-coated powder contained in the Cartridge S35. The printer applies the toner to
the surface of the photosensitive drum inside the printer via an electrophotographic
mechanism.
Toner saver
Because the black areas of print data are thinned, toner consumption is reduced.
Tool bar
In the Status Window, the area in the tab window that includes buttons for pausing, resuming,
and deleting the current print job.
Transfer roller
Presses the paper against the drum, to aid the transfer of toner to the paper.
TrueType fonts
Scalable fonts used for both screen display and printing. TrueType fonts can be sized to any
height, and print exactly as they appear on the screen, but with higher resolution.

PC or peripheral equipment.

Virtual Memory
Space on the hard disk that Windows uses for temporary data storage as if it were actually
random access memory (RAM). Windows does this by means of a swap file. This provides
Windows with more usable memory, but reduces speed of access to it when the swap file must
be used. See also Physical RAM.

Weight
Refers to the thickness of a font: light, medium, or bold. Also refers to the thickness of paper.
Windows Explorer
The Windows program you can use to browse through, open, and manage the disk drives,
folders, and files on your computer in a network system. You can also use Windows Explorer
to view and open shared folders on other computers on the network. You can use Windows
Explorer to manage your files by moving, copying, renaming, and deleting files.
WYSIWYG
Pronounced wizzy-wig, an acronym for “what you see is what you get.” For example, when
you format a paragraph, the line breaks that appear on the printed page are exactly the same as
they are on the screen.
