Laser Printing Steps
100
When a vendor or corporation makes computing resources available over the Internet.
What is Cloud Computing?
100
Software that creates and manages virtual machines.
What is hypervisor?
100
Cloud service that is available to the user at anytime.
What is On-demand (Service at any time)?
100
Uses heat to create an image.
What is a Thermal Printer?
100
During this step, the drum is conditioned by a roller that places a high uniform electrical charge of -600 V to -1000 V on the surface of the drum.
What is Charging or Conditioning (Step 2)?
200
Cloud service provider provides any combination of functions depending on a customer’s exact needs.
What is XaaS (Anything as a Service or Everything as a Service)?
200
What is Type-2 Hypervisor sometimes called a hosted hypervisor?
200
Resources offered by a cloud computing vendor are measured, or metered, for billing purposes and/or for the purpose of limiting any particular customer’s use of that resource according to the service agreement.
What is Measured Service?
200
Prints using a plastic filament to build a 3D model of a digital image.
What is a 3D Printer?
200
In this step, the page comes to the printer encoded in a language the printer understands, and the firmware inside the printer processes the incoming data to produce a bitmap of the final page, which is stored in the printer’s memory.
What is Processing the Image (Step 1)?
300
A customer rents hardware, operating systems, and some applications that might support other applications the customer may install. Popular with software developers who require access to multiple platforms during the development process.
What is PaaS (Platform as a Service)?
300
What is Type-1 Hypervisor also called bare-metal hypervisor?
300
Refers to the service provider's ability to scale a service up or down as the need level changes for a particular customer without disruption of service.
What is Rapid Elasticity (Elastic services and storage)?
300
Creates a printed page by using some mechanism that touches or hits the paper and can print multiple copies at the same time.
What is an Impact Printer (Dot Matrix Printer)?
300
In this step, the developing cylinder applies toner to the surface of the drum. The toner is charged between -200 V and -500 V, and sticks to the developing cylinder because of a magnet inside it.
What is Developing (Step 4)?
400
The customer rents hardware, including servers, storage, and networking, and can use these hardware services virtually. Customers are responsible for their own application installations, data management, and backup. Sometimes customers are also responsible for their own operating system
What is IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service)?
400
This virtualization is when one computer provides multiple desktops for users.
What is a desktop virtualization also called client-side virtualization?
400
Services to multiple customers are hosted on shared physical resources, such as storage, servers, and network, which are dynamically allocated to meet customer demand.
What is Resource Pooling?
400
A type of electro-photographic printer that can range from a small, personal desktop model to a large network printer capable of handling and printing large volumes continuously.
What is a Laser Printer?
400
In this step, a sweeping blade cleans the drum of any residual toner. The charge left on the drum is then neutralized.
What is Cleaning (Step 7)?
500
Customers use applications hosted on the service provider’s hardware and operating systems, and typically access the applications through a web browser.
What is SaaS (Software as a Service)?
500
An application is made available to users by a virtualization server and does not need to be installed on the user’s computer.
What is an Application virtualization?
500
Cloud resources are made available to clients through standardized access methods that can be used with a variety of platforms, such as Windows, Linux, or macOS, on any number of devices, such as desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones from various manufacturers.
What is Support for Multiple Client Platforms?
500
Uses a type of ink-dispersion printing and doesn’t normally provide the high-quality resolution of laser printers.
What is an Inkjet Printer?
500
During this step, a strong electrical charge draws the toner off the drum onto the paper.
What is Transferring (Step 5)?
