Which one of these statements is true? (Assuming that the refresh rate listed is the max the monitor could handle at the given resolution).

Answers

1.

Correct Answer = C

As displayed in Table 19.2, a resolution of 800x600 is supported by SVGA. CGA supports 320x200 and 640x200. VGA supports 640x480 and320x200. Monochrome supports 720x350.

2.

Correct Answer = D

You should never wear an ESD wrist strap while working with the components inside of a monitor. An electronic reaction that can be deadly may occur. You should, however, wear a protective wrist strap while installing adapter cards in your system to protect them from ESD. An electron gun is used in a monitor to direct an electronic beam to the back of a glass screen that has a phosphorous coating. A multimeter is a device used to measure wattage.

3.

Correct Answers = C, E, and F

Toner cartridges, paper, and disposable ribbons are considered printer consumable items.

4.

Correct Answer = D

With a networked printer, print jobs are typically queued in a printer buffer that is managed by the print spooler service. If print jobs are not printing to a networked printer, this process will clear the print queue and allow print jobs to be resubmitted and printed.

5.

Correct Answer = C

A misaligned platen commonly results in a faded level of ink application to the paper as it is applied from left to right or may result in uneven lines of output across the paper.

6.

Correct Answer = D

If your laser printed output begins to appear wavy or inconsistent in print, you may have an empty or malfunctioning toner cartridge.

7.

Correct Answer = B

With a dye sublimation printer, a heat sensitive print head moves over a ribbon of transparent film that contains heat-activated inks.

8.

Correct Answer = C

With a dye sublimation printer, a heat sensitive print head moves over a ribbon of transparent film that contains heat-activated inks or sections that represent the four primary printing colors of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK). All other choices are invalid.

9.

Correct Answer = B

Currently, the fastest available connection for a printer is realized through USB technology and a USB connection.

10.

Correct Answer = A

Paper-feed rollers have sensors to control the proper flow of paper out of the paper tray. It is a common occurrence to receive a “paper jam” error on the printer LED display but on investigation, you find that there is no paper in the tray.

11.

Correct Answer = E

An MFD is a device that combines functionality of a printer, a copier, a scanner, and a fax machine into one unit.

12.

Correct Answer = E

All of the items listed are common features of a multifunctional finisher.

13.

Correct Answer = C

The 15-inch CRT can typically only display up to 1024x768, the 17-inch CRT and LCD can only do 1280x1024 (just because the screen is a true 17-inch screen, you are still limited to 1280x1024).

14.

Correct Answer = B

A 15-inch monitor is not capable of 1280x1024 (the smallest monitor capable of 1280x1024 is a 17-inch one). The 19-inch monitor running 1024x768 at 80Hz could probably display 1600x1200—but not at a higher refresh rate than running at 1024x768!
