can quickly call the last number dialled by
pressing [REDIAL].
Reduction mode

reduces the received image to allow room at
the top of the page for the sender’s ID
information. You can also reduce the size of
large incoming documents using the RX
REDUCTION option.
Resolution
The density of dots for any given output
device. Expressed in terms of dots per inch
(dpi). Low resolution causes font characters
and graphics to have a jagged appearance.
Higher resolution means smoother curves and
angles as well as a better match to traditional
typeface designs. Resolution values are
represented by horizontal data and vertical
data.
Rotary pulse
A telephone dialling system where a dial is
rotated to send pulses to the telephone
switching system. When you pulse dial, you
hear clicks. When you touch-tone dial, the

adjustments.
