Check Dest. & Send | A function for sending a fax only after a comparison of the specified fax number with |

|
Compact PDF | Compression method for reducing the data amount using the PDF format when con- |
| verting color documents to data. The highest compression efficiency is achieved by |
| identifying the text and image regions and using the resolution and compression |
| method most appropriate for each region. The compact PDF format can be selected |
| when converting documents to data using the scanning functions of this machine. |
|
|
Confidential communication | A function for sending and receiving documents to be viewed only by specific per- |
| sons. The sent confidential document is saved in a confidential box on the recipient’s |

Dialing method | There are three types: PB |
| pps), and 20PPS (pulse dialing at 20 pps). |

| regularities. |
|
|
DNS | Abbreviation for Domain Name System. A system that acquires the supported IP ad- |
