Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)

The device included in the MultiPASS C50 that automatically feeds the document being faxed, copied, or scanned into the MultiPASS C50.

Automatic image reduction

The MultiPASS C50 can print the date, time, company name, and a fax number at the top of the faxes it receives. To prevent this information from crowding the faxed image on the page and possibly lengthening the fax, the MultiPASS C50 automatically reduces the size of the image on the page.

Automatic redialling

When the receiving fax machine is busy or does not answer, or when an error occurs while sending, the MultiPASS C50 waits a speci®ed time and then automatically redials the number. If the receiving fax is still busy or does not answer, the MultiPASS C50 waits the speci®ed time and dials again. If the fax still doesn't go through, the MultiPASS C50 prints an activity report.

B

Bi-directional parallel interface port

An interface connection that can send and receive signals. For example, when you print or send a fax from your computer, data goes from your computer to the MultiPASS C50; when you scan or receive a fax into your computer, data goes from the MultiPASS C50 to your computer.

BJ cartridge

The printing mechanism that contains the print head unit and ink cartridges.

Bold

A characteristic of a printed character that indicates wider, darker representation. Also referred to as emphasised or double-strike printing.
