JBIG, Improved image data compression
JBIG is a new ITU-T standard image data compression
method. JBIG's compression method allows data to be
compressed more efficiently* than MMR, a conven-
tional compression method. JBIG is especially effec-
tive when transmitting halftone image documents.
Because the smaller data size requires less transmis-
sion time, JBIG saves you time and money.
*Actual compression ratio may vary with image.
Super G3 is a phrase used to describe the new
generation of fax machines that use ITU-T V.34
standard 33.6Kbps** modems. Super G3 High Speed
Fax machines allow transmission time of
approximately 3 seconds** per page which results in
reduced telephone line charges.
** Approximately 3 seconds per page fax transmission
time based on CCITT/ITU-T No.1 Chart, (JBIG,
Standard Mode) at 33.6Kbps modem speed. The
Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) currently
supports 28.8Kbps modem speeds or lower,
depending on telephone line conditions.
