Passcode A four-digit code-number. On your fax machine, the protection passcode lets the
user limit access to fax operations, as well as certain settings and even documents readied for
polling (in the case of polling, only calling machines whose users enter the proper passcode will
be able to poll the document.)

PCL Page Control Language. An industry standard for printer control. Some Muratec fax
machines include or offer PCL-compatible printing for Windows-based personal computers.
Platen A traditional copier-style top to a fax machine or digital copier. Some Muratec fax
machines and multifunctional products include a platen top, allowing you to fax from books and
other awkward sources.
Polling Automatic transmission to a calling remote fax, or reception of a document from a
remote fax set for this operation. Polling is convenient whenever a central unit must receive infor-
mation from one or several remote faxes. The caller bears all telephone charges and prevents
several remote units from calling at the same time. See also Secure polling.
Private line (Or leased line.) A service offered by many telephone systems; provides an exclu-
. sive phone circuit between two geographic points . A Muratec fax does not require a private line.
