Term Definition
Automatic redialing 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.
Book document A bound document such as a book or catalog.
F codes 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 transmis-
sion are possible only with similar machines compatible with F code
transmission.
Internet fax Faxes can be transmitted via the Internet or an Intranet instead of
through telephone lines.

and the scanned image (TIFF format) can be sent as an e-mail mes-
sage to a computer or Internet fax. In addition, e-mail messages
from computers can be received as images.

JBIG coding method New method of data compression/decompression, standardized by
the Joint Bi-level Image Expert Working Group, a subcommittee of

transferring large amounts of data or high-resolution image data
such as halftones.
Manual reception Receiving a fax document after talking on the telephone.
Manual transmission Sending a fax document after talking on the telephone.

much more image data can be stored in the memory.
Memory reception 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.
Network scanner This is a function that allows scanned images to be sent to a com-
puter via a network. They can also be sent as e-mail messages or
uploaded to FTP servers.
