Ai Short Protocol - Ricoh 2400L Operator's Manual

ADVANCED FEATURES OTHER

AI Short Protocol

This feature employs Artificial Intelligence (AI) to learn the communication
characteristics of the machines programmed as Speed Dials or Quick Dials. AI
Short Protocol helps you to reduce communication costs between machines
produced by the same manufacturer. AI Short Protocol only works if you dial using
Quick Dial, Speed Dial, or Redial; also, the machine at the other end must have
the AI Short Protocol feature.
When you send a fax message, the two machines carry out a handshaking
procedure, during which they establish the best way to communicate with each
other. Using AI Short Protocol, this handshaking procedure only takes place in full
the first time you dial a particular number. Your machine remembers the optimum
communication parameters for calling that number. The next time you dial that
number, the machine will remember these parameters and the preliminary
handshaking will be significantly reduced, saving communication costs.
