can adjust the number of redials and the length of
time between redialing.

quickly call the last number dialed by pressing
[REDIAL].

also reduce the size of large incoming documents
using the RX REDUCTION option.
Resolution

pressed in terms of dots per inch (dpi). Low resolu-
tion 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 dialing 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 most common dialing system, you hear
tones. Rotary pulse dialing requires certain setting
adjustments.
