Glossary

A
AC
Alternating current. The type of electrical current available from a wall outlet.
Activity report
A journal of the FAX-L260i's fax transactions, both sent and received.
Automatic dialling
Dialling fax numbers by pressing one or three buttons. To use automatic dialling, you
must register the numbers in the FAX-L260i's memory. See also One-touch speed
dialling, Coded speed dialling, and Group dialling.
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)
The device included in the FAX-L260i that feeds the document being faxed, copied,
or scanned into the FAX-L260i.
Automatic image reduction
The FAX-L260i can print the date, time, company name, and a fax number at the top
of the faxes it receives. To prevent this information from crowding the faxed image
on the page and possibly lengthening the fax, the FAX-L260i automatically reduces
the size of the image on the page.
Automatic redialling
When the receiving fax machine is busy or does not answer, or when an error occurs
while sending, the FAX-L260i waits a specified time and then automatically redials
the number. If the receiving fax is still busy or does not answer, the FAX-L260i waits
the specified time and dials again. If the fax still doesn't go through, the FAX-L260i
prints an activity report.
B
bps
Bits per second. Refers to the speed with which a fax machine sends and receives
data.
