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.
HP-GL/2
A graphics language that allows computer applications to draw
graphic images using printers. Images in HP-GL/2 are represented
