B. It sounds like this printer needs to manage its own print jobs; therefore, it probably needs to be its own print server. Installing an integrated print server with a network connection will probably do the trick.

130

B. Clean pickup rollers (and other rubber rollers) with mild soap and water and not alcohol. Alcohol can dry out the rollers, making them brittle and ineffective. A dry cloth will not remove the dirt or debris, and compressed air would just blow the debris into other internal printer components.

131

D. During the developing step, toner is attracted to areas of the drum where an image has been written by the laser. Those areas have a slight negative charge (–100VDC) as opposed to unexposed areas of the drum and the developing roller (which the toner is stuck to), which each have a charge of –600VDC.

132

C. The primary factor in determining data throughput for a magnetic hard drive is the spin rate. Higher spin rates will result in faster data reads and writes and increase data throughput.

133

B. LoJack, made by Absolute Software, allows you to remotely lock a computer if it has been stolen or compromised. It will also allow security teams to locate stolen laptops.

134

D. The white connector is a 20-pin ATX power connector. You will also see 24-pin versions, which have two rows of 12 pins each.

135

B. Motherboards support memory based on the speed of the frontside bus (or the CPU’s QPI) and the memory’s form factor. For example, if the motherboard’s FSB is rated at a maximum speed of 1333MHz, you should install memory that is rated at 1333MHz.

136

C. To make information available to the rest of the computer more quickly, hard drive manufacturers increase the speed at which the hard drive platters spin.

137

A, B, C. The ATX, MicroATX, and mini-ITX motherboard form factors can all be mounted inside a standard ATX case. The mini-ITX will have only three of the four mounting holes line up with the case, but the rear interfaces are placed in the same location as those on ATX motherboards.

138

C. If memory supports ECC, check bits are generated and stored with the data. If one of the eight memory bits is in error, ECC can correct the error.

139

A, D. USB flash drives and SD cards are hot swappable. (In the case of USB, be sure that the flash drive does not contain key file system files needed for the computer to run!) Hybrid SSDs might or might not be hot swappable and are larger than USB and SD drives. PATA devices are generally not hot swappable.

140

C. This SLI-ready motherboard has three PCIe x16 slots (every other slot, starting with the top one), one PCIe x1 slot (second slot from the top), and two PCI slots (first and third slots from the bottom). Notice the latch and tab that secures the x16 adapters in place by their hooks.

141

B, D. Dual-channel motherboards have two banks of two RAM slots. They are color coded such that the two slots of the same color belong to the same channel. Sometimes the like-colored slots are adjacent to each other, but other times they alternate. For optimal performance, fill one channel completely.

142

C. Install an application that provides support for printing to .pdf. Then, when the user opens the print window, they can choose the .pdf option.

143

A. The boot sequence of a computer is changed in the BIOS settings.

144

C, D. Typical front- or top-panel connectors include USB, audio, power button, power light, drive activity lights, and the reset button. Hard drives and optical disk players generally connect to the motherboard.

145

A. USB 3.0 has a cable length limitation of 3 meters. USB 2.0 cables can be up to 5 meters in length.

146

C. Printer firmware upgrades can offer newer features that are not available on previous versions.

147

D. PCI is a shared-bus topology, so mixing 33MHz and 66MHz adapters in a 66MHz system will slow all adapters to 33MHz.

148

B. In the exposing step, the image is written to the photosensitive imaging drum. Wherever the laser beam touches, the photosensitive drum’s charge is severely reduced from –600VDC to a slight negative charge (around –100VDC). As the drum rotates, a pattern of exposed areas is formed, representing the image to be printed.

149

D. Passive cooling systems come in a variety of models, and some are very effective. The defining characteristic is that they do not use a fan or require a power source.

150

B. Compact discs have a capacity of approximately 700MB. Other CD standards support capacities of 650MB, 800MB, and 900MB.

151

A, C. The BIOS configures many hardware components and settings, such as system date and time, boot sequence, enabling and disabling devices, clock speeds, virtualization support, and BIOS security.

152

B, C. 64-bit SODIMMs come in 144-pin SDR, 200-pin DDR and DDR2, and 204-pin DDR3 varieties. DDR DIMMs have 184 pins, and DDR2 and DDR3 DIMMS have 240 pins.

153

A. The typical increasing order of capacity and distance from the processor die is L1 cache, L2 cache, L3 cache, RAM, and HDD/SSD. Currently, there is no L4 cache.

154

A. The picture shows a 20-pin ATX connector, which provides the motherboard with power.

155

A, D. A pin grid array (PGA) socket has holes to receive the pins that are on the CPU. The land grid array (LGA) is a newer technology that places the delicate pins on the motherboard instead of on the CPU.

156

C. To calculate the FSB speed from the RAM module name, divide by 8. In this case, that makes the FSB 1333MHz (accounting for a bit of rounding).

157

C. Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays can be made to be flexible, whereas other displays cannot.

158

C. A duplexing assembly is used for two-sided printing. After the first page is printed, it’s fed into the duplexing assembly, turned over, and fed back into the paper feed assembly.

159

C. The printer’s logic circuitry and motors require low voltages, between +5VDC and +24VDC. The DC power supply (DCPS) converts house current into three voltages: +5VDC and –5VDC for the logic circuitry and +24VDC for the paper-transport motors. This component also runs the fan that cools the internal components of the printer.

160

D. The top module is DDR3, and the bottom one is DDR2. Both have 240 pins and a single keying notch. The DDR3 notch is off-center.

161

D. Never ship a printer anywhere with a toner cartridge installed! The jostling that happens during shipping could cause toner to spill out of the cartridge and all over the inside of the printer. Remove the toner cartridge first. You can put it in a sealed, airtight bag to ship if needed.

162

D. Linear Tape-Open is the newest and highest-capacity tape storage technology. LTO 7, released in 2015, has an uncompressed capacity of 6TB per tape. LTO 6 had an uncompressed capacity of 2.5TB. QIC tapes can often store around 1GB. DLT can store up to 800GB, and DAT can store up to 300GB.

163

A. Most internal video adapters today are PCIe cards. You might still find older PCI or AGP cards on the market as well. ISA is a legacy expansion slot type not used today. VGA and DVI are types of monitor connectors but not expansion slot types.

164

D. The order of steps is processing, charging, exposing, developing, transferring, fusing, and cleaning.

165

A, B. Apple created Bonjour and AirPrint.

166

D. Before you print to an inkjet printer, you must ensure that the device is calibrated. Calibration is the process by which a device is brought within functional specifications. СКАЧАТЬ
