Bi-directional printing
The ability of the MultiPASS 1000 to print both left to right and
right to left. This printing method provides a fast speed. See also
Unidirectional printing.
bps
Bits per second. Refers to the speed with which a fax machine sends
and receives data.
Broadcasting
Transmitting documents to more than one location (through the
MultiPASS 1000’s memory).
Bubble Jet printing
An ink-jet type printing method that heats the ink to a boiling point
to form a bubble. When the bubble expands, there is no room left in
the nozzle for the ink and the ink is projected onto the paper.
C
CCITT #1 Chart
A test chart, defined by CCITT, used to check the transmission
speed as well as the transmitting and receiving memory capacity of
a fax machine.
CCITT/ITU-TS
Formally known as CCITT, Consultative Committee for
International Telegraph and Telephone. CCITT has been replaced
by the International Telecommunications Union –
Telecommunications Sector (ITU-TS), a committee created to set
international standards for telecommunications.
Centronics
An interface standard for parallel data transmission. The interface
on the MultiPASS 1000 is a Centronics-type parallel interface.
CNG
Calling Tone. This is a signal sent by fax machines to identify the
call as an incoming document. When the receiving fax detects this
signal, it automatically starts to receive the fax transmission. The
majority of fax machines in use today can send and detect CNG
signals.
Coded speed dialing
An automatic dialing method that allows you to dial a fax or
telephone number by pressing three buttons—the CODED
DIAL/DIRECTORY
button and a two-digit code using the numeric
