Definition
If a call cannot be completed, for example if the recipient's machine is
busy, the recipient is automatically called again. If a document queued in
the memory to be sent contains multiple pages, until the time for redialing
has been reached, it is advanced in the queue and sent.
F codes are mailbox functions, such as "SUB" (sub-addresses), "SEP"
(selective polling), "SID" and "PWD" (passwords), regulated by the G3
standards of the ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union).
Mailbox transmission/reception and relay initiation transmission are
possible only with similar machines compatible with F code transmission.
Faxes can be transmitted via the Internet or an Intranet instead of
through telephone lines.
Instead of a fax number, the recipient's e-mail address is specified and
the scanned image (TIFF format) can be sent as an e-mail message to a
computer or Internet fax. In addition, e-mail messages from computers
can be received as images.
Analog telephone lines (public network)
New method of data compression/decompression, standardized by the
Joint Bi-level Image Expert Working Group, a subcommittee of the
International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T). Effective for
transferring large amounts of data or high-resolution image data such as
halftones.
Receiving a fax document after talking on the telephone.
Sending a fax document after talking on the telephone.
Stores fax and copy image data. By installing expansion memory, much
more image data can be stored in the memory.
When paper runs out or a paper misfeed occurs while receiving a fax, the
data is automatically stored in the memory and printed out later.
Even if the paper runs out during the night or when the user is away, the
fax document can still be received.
This is a function that allows scanned images to be sent to a computer
via a network. They can also be sent as e-mail messages or uploaded to
FTP servers.
Abbreviation for private branch exchange
Exchange equipment installed in a company or a plant to connect a
number of telephone sets with multiple station lines in order to enable
unrestricted communications between the telephone sets.
The necessary rules for communication
A signal used on the telephone line; used when calling on a push-button
line or using push-button services.
By pressing the [
] key in the 10-Key Pad, touch-tone signals are used,
even if a dial phone line is connected.
