Automatic redialing

If a call cannot be completed, for example if the recipient’s

 

machine is busy, the recipient is automatically called again. If a

 

document queued in the memory to be sent contains multiple

 

pages, until the time for redialing has been reached, it is advanced

 

in the queue and sent.

 

 

Book document

A bound document such as a book or catalog.

 

 

F codes

F codes are mailbox functions, such as “SUB” (sub-addresses),

 

“SEP” (selective polling), “SID” and “PWD” (passwords), regulated

 

by the G3 standards of the ITU-T (International

 

Telecommunication Union). Mailbox transmission/reception and

 

relay initiation transmission are possible only with similar

 

machines compatible with F code transmission.

 

 

G3 communication

Communications in conformance with the G3 standard (an

 

international standard for facsimile communications); fax

 

communications via an analog line (general subscriber line).

 

 

Internet fax

Faxes can be transmitted via the Internet or an Intranet instead of

 

through telephone lines.

 

Instead of a fax number, the recipient’s e-mail address is specified

 

and the scanned image (TIFF format) can be sent as an e-mail

 

message to a computer or Internet fax. In addition, e-mail

 

messages from computers can be received as images.

 

 

General subscriber line

Analog telephone lines (public network)

 

 

JBIG coding method

New method of data compression/decompression, standardized

 

by the Joint Bi-level Image Expert Working Group, a subcommittee

 

of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T). Effective

 

for transferring large amounts of data or high-resolution image

 

data such as halftones.

 

 

Manual reception

Receiving a fax document after talking on the telephone.

 

 

Manual transmission

Sending a fax document after talking on the telephone.

 

 

Memory

Stores fax and copy image data. By installing expansion memory,

 

much more image data can be stored in the memory.

 

 

Memory reception

When paper runs out or a paper misfeed occurs while receiving a

 

fax, the data is automatically stored in the memory and printed out

 

later.

 

Even if the paper runs out during the night or when the user is

 

away, the fax document can still be received.

 

 

Network scanner

This is a function that allows scanned images to be sent to a

 

computer via a network. They can also be sent as e-mail

 

messages or uploaded to FTP servers.

 

 

On-hook dialing

Dials without the hand set picked up. Press the [Speaker] key to

 

use this function.
