E
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. Do not use ECM if you need to send a document quickly and you are sure the other party can read your transmission without
it (turning off ECM also turns off MMR).
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), and Modified Modified READ (MMR).
Grayscale
Representing color in black and white as a result of different intensities of color. Different colors and intensities of colors appear as
different shades of gray.
Group Dialing
A dialing method that enables you to dial up to 131 registered One-Touch Speed Dialing or Coded Speed Dialing numbers together
as a group. This means that you can press just one or three buttons to enter numbers when sending the same document to many
destinations.
H
Halftone
Using this method, the machine produces shades of gray by mapping dots to be printed.
