Terms and Definitions

Term Definition
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 [On-hook dial]
key to use this function.
