Lexmark Dot Matrix Manual

SNMP community name
A plain-text password mechanism used to authenticate queries to agents of
managed network devices on a weekly basis. In order to prevent others from
using your network printer, change the community name for the printer from
the standard word “public.” This breaks many tools used to print and manage
the printer and should be done only if absolutely necessary.
The SNMP community name selected in a virtual device must match the
community name selected in the print server.
subnet
A segment of a network that is connected to a larger network. A local area
network is sometimes referred to as a local subnet.
System Management Interface Tool
(SMIT)
The administration tool used on the AIX operating system.
tar
A UNIX program used for archiving files together. Often used with a
compression program to distribute programs on the Internet.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol)
A network protocol used to connect computers and hosts. It is commonly used
in UNIX environments.
virtual device
Virtual devices contain information about the printer the virtual device
represents. Queues use the information from the virtual device to transport the
data to the printer. Virtual devices, however, are not system devices located in
the /dev directory, and other applications cannot send information to a printer
using a virtual device.
X client
A program that runs using the X Window System.
X server
A program that handles displaying graphical X client output on a display as well
as distributing input from input devices to X clients.
X Window System
The X Window System is a window system capable of displaying programs over
a network. X Window System servers run on computers connected to a monitor.
The X server handles transferring input from keyboard and mouse devices to
the X Window System program, called an X client. The X server also accepts
output from X clients and displays the graphics on the monitor.
XON/XOFF
A type of serial transmission signaling used in serial communications. The
sending device must match the receiving port.
