Stationary
Platen
All but the most basic PC-segment copiers are equipped with a stationary
platen, meaning the top of the copier doesnt move back and forth
across the document to be copied. Three-Hole
Punching
Some sorters, often referred to as finishers, will three-hole punch
collated and stapled copies.
Transparencies
Clear plastic film typically used as slides in presentations. They
can be run through a copier.
Transparency
Cassette
A special cassette used in a copier that is designed to hold only
transparency film.
Transparency
Interleaving
Inserts a sheet of paper between transparencies a photocopier copies
onto, protecting the film.
Warm-Up Time
The amount of time after a copier is turned on before it can begin
the first copying job. This time isnt really an issue for
lower-end machines, but usually increases for larger models.
Yield
The number of copies a particular consumable (toner, developer)
can support. The yield for toner can be calculated by estimating
the number of copies you make a month, and the amount of coverage
per page.
Zoom
Reduces or enlarges your copies within a certain range, such as
from 50 percent to 200 percent. Digital copiers can zoom as high
as 400 percent to 800 percent and shrink as low as 25 percent
