2.1.3 RESOLUTION UNIT CONVERSION

mm-inch Conversion
This machine's scanner is designed in mm resolution units. However, the other
terminal may have an inch-based printer. The machine can convert the scanned
data into inch-format for transmission.
The following table shows the actual transmitted data resolution units in various
cases.
Please note that other models (such as FX4 and FR4) convert from inches to mm
units whereas this machine converts from mm to inches.

When the above switch is off (Communication Switch 14 bit 0, the default setting is
off) the machine transmits the data in mm-format without conversion while
informing the other terminal that it is an inch based transmission.
