ECM
Error Correction Mode. The ability of your machine to reduce system and line
errors when sending or receiving from another fax with ECM capability. ECM
is most effective in areas where the telephone lines are in poor condition or
there is frequent interference on the line.
Extension
A telephone connected to the machine that is used in place of the handset.
You can use the extension telephone to activate incoming reception of
documents manually.
F
FAX/TEL switching
This option allows you to set the machine to automatically detect whether a
call is from a fax or telephone. If the call is from another fax, the transmission
is automatically received. If the call is from a telephone, the machine rings
to let you know, so you can pick up the handset. With this feature, one
telephone line can be shared by both the telephone and the fax.
FINE
The resolution setting for documents with very small characters and lines.
G
G3, Group 3 fax machine
Defined by CCITT/ITU-T. Uses encoding schemes to transmit image data
while reducing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted, thus
reducing transmission time. G3 fax machines can transmit one page in
less than one minute. Encoding schemes for G3 fax machines are Modified
Huffman (MH), Modified READ (MR), Modified Modified READ (MMR), and
Joint Bi-level Image expert Group (JBIG).
Group Dialing
A method of specifying recipients that enables you to specify multiple
recipients registered in Address Book as a group. This means that you can
press just a single one-touch speed dialing key to specify recipients when
sending the same document to many recipients.
