lpi — Lines per inch. The way fax image resolution is measured. (For example, see Normal
resolution.)
Memory — Internal document storage. In Muratec fax machines, random access memory in
the form of computer chips is used to store and hold documents for transmission and to hold
some documents that have been received.
Memory overflow — A message that appears on the machine’s
LCD
when the
current operation requires more of the machine’s electronic memory than what is available.

person being called. For regular two-way voice communication, users must use the optional
handset. See also On-hook dialing.

One-touch dialing — Allows the fax user to store frequently used fax numbers for dialing
with the touch of one key. See also Autodialing and Speed-dialing.
On-hook dialing — Dialing numbers by using the keypad on the fax unit without lifting a
