Fax Tone (CNG Signals): see CNG
Tone (Calling Signal)
Firmware Upload: Updating the de-
vice functionality.
Firmware: Program code stored in
Flash memory that controls the basic
functions of a device. Sometimes also
referred to as the device driver.
Gateway (Router): Devices for trans-
ferring data between networks. The
router forwards the data that arrive at
the gateway. If your network commu-
nicates with other networks, you may
have to configure the gateway IP address
(please contact your network provider).
High-Power Connection: see USB
Identification Presentation (Call-
ing Line Identification Presenta-
tion, CLIP): There are two types of
caller ID: Telephone number display
for incoming calls and sending of the
telephone number for outgoing calls.
The sending of the telephone number
can be disabled temporarily or com-
pletely (= telephone number suppres-
sion).
Infrared (also IrDA-Infrared Data
Association): Data transmission via
infrared at distances up to one meter.
A visual connection must exist be-
tween the IrDA ports. With the OBEX
protocol (Object Exchange Protocol)
you can transfer files unidirectionally
from infrared-capable devices to your
multifunction machine.
Infrastructure Network: see Net-
works.
Ink Level Memory: Your multifunction
machine keeps track of the ink con-
sumption of each printout and uses
this information to calculate the ink
level of the cartridges. The indicated
ink level is only meaningful if you up-
date each new ink cartridge with the
Plug'n'Print card that is provided with
the cartridge (see also Plug'n'Print
Card).
IP Address: Sequence of numbers
separated by periods (= address) for
identification of computers that are
connected to the Internet or a WLAN
network (see also TCP/IP).
Journal: A report of the documents
sent and received. The journal is ei-
ther printed out automatically after
62
30 transmissions or you can print it
out manually when needed (see sec-
tion Machine Functions / Trouble-
shooting / Printing the Journal)
Low-Power Connection: see USB
Dual
Tone
Multi-frequency
(DTMF): see Tone Dialling
Modem: A modem converts digital
computer signals into acoustic signals
and vice versa.
Networks: Connection between two or
more computers and/or other network
devices, such as printers, modems or
routers. In a LAN (Local Area Net-
work), network components can also
be connected by radio instead of by
cables: Wireless Local Area Network
(WLAN). Networks have different
structures (= architecture). In an infra-
structure network, all devices are con-
nected to a single access point. Data is
exchanged in the network through this
access point. In an ad-hoc network, the
devices communicate with each other
directly, without an access point.
Outside Line Access Code: The
outside line access code is the number
(usually "0") that must be dialled
before the actual telephone number
on a private branch exchange in
order to establish a connection
to the public telephone network.
Parallel Connection: see Additional
Devices
Plug'n'Print Card: Chip card for up-
dating newly inserted ink cartridges. A
cartridge that has once been activated
with the corresponding Plug'n'Print
card will be recognised again, even if
you remove the cartridge temporarily.
Polling: see Fax Polling
POP
(Post
Office
Protocol):
Internet protocol for downloading e-
mail.
Protocols: Standardised rules and
conventions for transmitting data in
networks (e. g. TCP/IP: the most well-
known protocol for Internet commu-
nication, used by almost all operating
systems; IEEE 820.11b: typical wire-
less network protocol; standard ITU
T30 for fax transmissions).
Pulse Dialling: A dialling process that
is used in older telephone networks.
Resolution: Number of dots per inch
(dpi). The following settings are avail-
able to you for fax transmissions:
standard, fine h, superfine f, photo
F and for colour faxes COL. For
copying, the available resolutions are
draft, NORMAL and photo.
Scanning: Reading a document via the
flatbed scanner for sending as a mes-
sage, copying, faxing or editing on the
PC.
Sender identification (= header):
Display of the telephone number,
name, date and time on outgoing mes-
sages.
Serial Connection: see Additional
Devices
Stand-alone: Your multifunction ma-
chine even functions independently of
a PC or network connection.
TCP/IP
(Transmission
Protocol over Internet Proto-
col): Fundamental Internet connection
protocol, often also used as a collective
term for the Internet protocol suite.
Telephone Book Index: The entries
saved in the telephone book are au-
tomatically sorted alphabetically and
can be accessed quickly by pressing the
initial letters.
Tone Dialling (Dual Tone Multi-
Frequency): A dialling process that
is used in modern telephone networks.
Each number dialled is assigned a spe-
cific tone (called DTMF tones).
Transmission error reduction: see
ECM
Transmission Speed: CCITT / ITU
has published international standards
for the transmission of data over tele-
phone lines. The most important trans-
mission speeds for fax transmissions are:
V.17—7.200 to 14.400 bps
V.21—max. 300 bps
V.22—max. 1.200 bps
V.22 bis—max. 2.400 bps
V.27 ter—max. 4.800 bps
V.29—max. 9.600 bps
V.32 bis—max. 14.400 bps
V.34—max. 33.600 bps
URL (Uniform Resource Loca-
tor): Standardised form for objects
in the Internet, usually WWW pages,
but also files on FTP servers or e-mail
addresses.
