256 pages.*
*Based on the condition that the other party sends the fax by the
LaserBase MF3200 Series with ITU-T Standard Chart No.1, standard
mode. The maximum number of pages that the machine’s memory
can store differs depending on the other party’s machine.
Once the pages are printed, they are deleted from the memory.
If the memory becomes full, you will not be able to receive the
remaining pages. Contact the other party and ask them to resend the

Glossary
A
Activity Report
A journal of the machine’s fax transactions, both sent and
received.
Automatic redialing
When the receiving fax machine is busy or does not answer, or
when an error occurs while sending, the machine waits a
specified time and then automatically redials the number. If the
receiving fax is still busy or does not answer, the machine waits
the specified time and dials again.
B
Broadcasting
Transmitting documents to more than one location (through the
machine’s memory).
C
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 Dialing
An automatic dialing method that allows you to dial a fax or
telephone number by pressing [Coded Dial] and a two-digit code
using the numeric keys.

interference on the line.
F
FaxTel switching
This option allows you to set the machine to automatically detect
whether a call is from a fax or telephone. If the call is from another
fax, the transmission is automatically received. If the call is from a
telephone, the machine rings to let you know, so you can pick up
the handset. With this feature, one telephone line can be shared
by both the telephone and the fax.
FINE
The resolution setting for documents with very small characters
and lines.

G
G3, Group 3 fax machine
Defined by CCITT/ITU-T. Uses encoding schemes to transmit
image data while reducing the amount of data that needs to be
transmitted, thus reducing transmission time. G3 fax machines
can transmit one page in less than one minute. Encoding
schemes for G3 fax machines are Modified Huffman (MH),
Modified READ (MR), Modified Modified READ (MMR), and Joint
Bi-level Image expert Group (JBIG).
Group Dialing
A dialing method that enables you to dial multiple one-touch
speed dialing or coded dialing numbers together as a group. This
means that you can press just one key to enter numbers when
sending the same document to many destinations.
I
ITU-T
A committee created to set international standards for
telecommunications.
M
Manual redialing
When you use regular dialing, you can redial a number manually
simply by pressing [Redial/Pause] on the operation panel. The
last number called is the number redialed.
Modem
A device that converts (MOdulates) digital data for transmission
over telephone lines. At the receiving end, this device converts
the modulated data (DEModulates) to digital format that the
computer understands.
N
Numeric Keys
The round, numbered keys on the operation panel marked the
same as a standard telephone keypad.
Press them to perform regular dialing. You also use the numeric
keys to enter numbers and letters when you register telephone or
fax numbers and names, and to enter coded dialing codes.

receiving ID number to start remote reception.
Report
A document printed by the machine and containing information
about the faxes it has sent or received.
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, for example, 600
× 600 dpi.
Rotary pulse
A telephone dialing system where a dial is rotated to send pulses
to the telephone switching system. In pulse dialing, you hear
clicks. In touch-tone dialing, the most common dialing system,
you hear tones. Rotary pulse dialing requires certain setting
adjustments.
RX

S
Sending
A fax document that has been scanned by a fax machine is sent
over telephone lines, in the form of electrical pulses, to another
fax machine. Also called TX or Transmit.
