A quick introduction to fax

What’s a fax document?

A fax document is anything a fax user wants to fax to someone else. It can be one or

more pages, and it can be text, a drawing or even a copy of a photograph.

What’s a fax number?

Because your fax operates on standard phone lines, a fax number is just a regular

phone number. And because your fax is also a high-quality, full-featured telephone,

your fax number can be your regular phone number.

What are resolution and greyscale?

Just as cars are measured by engine size, fax machines are measured by resolution

and greyscale.

Resolution refers to the sharpness of a fax transmission. There are three levels of

resolution:

•

Normal (8 dots/mm horizontal × 3.85 lines/mm vertical)

Fine (8 dots/mm × 7.7 lines/mm)

Superfine (16 dots/mm × 15.4 lines/mm).

Greyscale levels, or shades of grey — refers to the many shades of grey your fax

machine sees on a document it’s sending. It’s likely most of your fax documents will

be dark text on white paper. However, when you want to send photographs and

other shaded items, you can set your fax machine to transmit in 256-level greyscale.

Why not always set your fax machine for superfine,

or for greyscale?

Setting your fax machine for superfine resolution and greyscale mode makes your

machine send more information, making transmissions last longer and driving up

your phone bills on long-distance calls. You’ll find that we’ve made it easy for you to

set your fax machine for the most efficient and truest transmission for the types of

documents you send.

Setting up

Pick an installation spot

Where should you install your fax machine? The location should be:

Installing the printing supplies

Your fax machine prints incoming faxes and copies with a laser print engine. The

engine requires two types of printing supplies (sometimes also called consumables):

•

Clea n — Dust build-up can damage your machine. (However, do not use a

cover!)

•

The drum cartridge — It yields 20,000 normal A4-sized printouts (see “Specifi-

cations,” page AI.1). By “normal,” we’re referring to the amount of text and/or

graphics on each page. This is based on an industry-standard test document.

•

In th e op en — Allow at least 30 cm of clearance around your machine. Be sure

that you never cover the machine. Its vents must be able to “breathe.”

•

The toner cartridge — It yields 5,500 “normal”, A4-sized printouts (see

“Specifications,” page AI.1).

Note: The toner cartridge included with your machine is a starter cartridge which

yields 3,600 printouts (see “Specifications,” page AI.1). Please purchase

regular, full-yield toner cartridges from your authorised Muratec dealer.

•

Aw a y fr om d ir ect su n ligh t — This helps avoid overheating.

Dr y — Avoid any location where splatters or sprays (such as from a water foun-

tain) could reach your fax machine.

•

Level, a n d vibr a tion -fr ee.

Nea r a p h on e ja ck — Your fax machine uses a standard (modular) telephone

jack, also known as an LJ U.

To install these supplies:

•

Nea r a n AC p ow er ou tlet — The AC power cord is about 1.5 metres long when

stretched to its limit, and the power cord should never be stretched to its limit.

Press the printer cover

release and swing open

the printer cover.

Power tips

• Use a sta n d a r d th r ee-pr on ged 230 VAC ou tlet.

• Ma k e su r e th e ou tlet isn ’t con tr olled by a w a ll sw itch .

If it is, you’ll risk occasional shutoffs to the machine, causing you

to lose fax messages.

Unpack the drum cartridge from its box.

Im p or ta n t: Sh ield th e d r u m ca r tr id ge fr om ligh t, esp ecia lly str on g

ligh t. Later, if you have to remove the cartridge from the fax,

immediately wrap it in a thick cloth to protect it from light.

• Don ’t u se a n ou tlet w h ich a lso is su p p lyin g p ow er to a

la r ge a p p lia n ce, such as a refrigerator or air conditioner.

Such high-consumption appliances can cause “draw-downs”

(temporary drops in the power available for other equipment on

the circuit) which could damage your fax machine.

•

Use a n electr ica l su r ge su ppr esser, preferably one which guards both tele-

phone and electrical lines. This device helps to shield your fax machine from

damaging high-voltage electrical surges.

Put the drum cartridge into the printer

by aligning the cartridge’s protrusions

with the slits inside the printer frame.

Loading paper

Your machine holds up to 650 sheets at a time: 500 sheets in the paper cassette and

150 sheets in the multipurpose tray.

Unpack the toner cartridge from its carton.

Hold the toner cartridge with both hands, and

shake it well as shown.

Loading the paper cassette

Pull forward on the paper cassette to slide it out.

Install the toner cartridge in the printer, making sure that the cartridge’s four

pins (two at the front and two at the rear) fit in the slits inside the printer

frame. The toner cartridge will click into place when inserted correctly.

Insert up to 500 A4-sized sheets into the cassette,

placing the edges of the top sheet under the metal

tabs on the left side of the cassette (viewed from

the cassette’s front, as shown).

Im p or ta n t: Load the cassette with A4-sized

paper only.

Push the paper cassette closed. You’ll feel a click

when it’s properly in place.

Note: The fax machine will not work if the

cover isn’t closed properly.

Note: If you encounter problems with

printouts, see “Print Quality

Problems” on page 3.3 for suggestions to correct them.

Im p or ta n t: You must set your machine to recognise the size of paper you’ve

loaded (see “Setting the paper size” on page 1.8 for details).

Slightly “fan” the paper you’re loading, to help ensure smooth feeding.

Installing a new drum cartridge

Insert up to 150 sheets of paper into the tray. Make sure the paper-length

guide and the paper-width guide now fit against the paper’s edges.

Your fax machine keeps track of how many pages go through the drum cartridge in

order to let you know when the drum needs to be replaced. So whenever you install

a new drum cartridge, you have to “notify” the machine by resetting the drum

counter. (Before resetting it the very first time, you’ll have to finish installing the

machine and then turn it on [see page 1.8].) To reset the drum counter:

Sending faxes

Reviewing contrast:

Guidelines

You have three choices for the contrast setting:

•

Normal (“NORM” on the control panel) — Suited to most documents.

Light — Lightens up overly dark, “muddy” original documents.

Dark — Darkens weak, “washed-out” images.

Page sizes

While you’ll probably send normal-sized documents most of the time, it’s possible to

fax a piece of paper as small as a notepad sheet or one nearly 1 meter long.

The acceptable dimensions (width × length) are:

Note: To avoid confusing the Light and Dark settings, just remember —

SINGLE-SHEET TRANSMISSION

MULTIPLE-SHEET TRANSMISSION

“Light lightens” and “Dark darkens”— to keep it straight.

Maximum:

Minimum:

280 mm × 900 mm

Maximum:

Minimum:

257 mm × 364 mm

148 mm × 105 mm

Entering a pause character when dialling

Some long-distance systems require dialling pauses, and pauses can also be useful

when you’re dialling through special telephone exchanges.

Things not to put in your fax

To avoid paper jams and damage to your machine, d on ’t in ser t:

To insert a pause character, just press REDIAL/PAUSE after you’ve dialled at least one

other character. -/(the pause character) will appear on the display.

•

Folded, curled, torn, wrinkled or very thin pages

Documents with staples, glue, tape, paper clips or still-wet correction fluid

Each pause entered lasts for a factory-set two seconds (see “Changing the pause

length,” next page, for instructions to change this setting).

For example, if the pause is at the factory setting, pressing 9, REDIAL/PAUSE,

19725552009 dials 9 [2-second pause] 1 9 7 2 5 5 5 2 0 0 9.

• “ Sticky notes” (or documents with “sticky notes” attached)

•

Cardboard, newspaper or fabric

Pages with duplicating carbon on either side

Credit cards or any small, thick items

Im p or ta n t: Each pause uses two of the characters you’re allowed in a number.

Resolution, greyscale and contrast

Reviewing resolution and greyscale:

•

Normal resolution (“NORM” on the control panel) is suitable for most typed

documents and simple drawings.

Fine resolution (“FINE” on the control panel) is ideal for maps, moderately compli-

cated drawings, floorplans or hand-written documents.

Superfine resolution (“S-FINE” on the control panel, “S Fine” on the LCD)

reproduces the detail of extremely complicated drawings or line art.

Greyscale mode (“HALFTONE” on the control panel; “Grey” on the LCD) captures

shades in photos and drawings.

Note: If you send a fax in superfine, certain fax models (especially older, non-

Muratec models) receive it only in fine mode. However, you can send a fax in

greyscale mode to virtually any fax machine currently in use.

Changing the pause length

Using memory transmission

The pause is set by the factory to last two seconds, but you can set it to last as long

as ten seconds if necessary. To change the pause length:

Your fax machine has a great memory! Take advantage of it, and you could:

Sa ve Tim e. By using your fax machine’s memory, you won’t have to wait for your

machine while it completes the transmission. Simply scan your document into your

fax machine’s memory, and you can walk away with your original in hand.

Press /P ROGRAM, , 0, 5, ENTER.

Set Dialing Pause

Time (02-10):

Sa ve Mon ey. If you’re transmitting to another memory-equipped fax machine, your

machine will send the document directly into the other machine’s memory and hang

up. (The receiving machine then prints out your message from its memory after the

call has ended.) This cuts your actual on-line time to a minimum.

Use the numeric keypad to enter the length you want for the dialling pause.

Here, we’ve chosen nine seconds.

Sa ve Even Mor e Mon ey. Set up a delayed command (see pages 2.17– 2.19) to send

your document after hours, and you can save more money, because the line charges

will be cheaper.

Set Dialing Pause

Time (02-10):

You can set your fax to transmit from memory as the default.

Note: The length setting requires two digits. Always enter a leading zero for

lengths less than 10 seconds.

Note: Whether you decide to send your documents from memory or manually, you

can override that choice one transmission at a time by pressing

MEMORY TRANSMIT before you send your document. After completing the

communication, your fax will return to the default setting.

Press ENTER to save the setting.

Potential problems with call-waiting and voice mail

Telephone call-waiting signals can stop fax transmission and reception. And any

service — such as voice mail — which may intercept your calls can keep your fax

machine from receiving fax calls.

Note: Some documents use up memory more quickly than others. They include

documents with many pages and those with many dark areas. When the

machine’s memory is full, it can transmit only through the document feeder.

To make memory transmission the default:

If you use only one line for both phone and fax, consult your telephone company to

see how you can temporarily disable call-waiting or voice mail while using the fax

machine.

call. (Example: Enter 9 to “dial out” from an office telephone system, or 1 for

long-distance.)

Adjust the document guides — by sliding either of them to the left or right —

to fit the page(s) you’re faxing. Your fax machine’s automatic document feeder

will hold up to 50 pages.

By pressing START, you’ve just given your machine a command. In turn, your

machine gives this action a command number as it scans the fax document.

This command number appears on the first line of the LCD for a few seconds:

The LCD now shows the current scanning width

setting (see “A4, B4, A3” in the Glossary that

begins on page 3.15) and the amount of memory

available:

You’ll need this command number to cancel the transmission or to print a

stored document (see pages 1.16).

Document Ready

Memory100%

Now, everything is up to the machines — yours and the one you’re dialling.

•

If the fax has been set for Quick Memory transmit, your machine scans the

first page of your document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it

makes contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory

while at the same time scanning the remaining pages of your document

into memory. (To set Quick Memory transmission, see pages 2.29.)

Sending a fax

To fax a document:

•

If the fax has been set for the normal memory transmit, your machine first

scans the document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it makes

contact, your machine transmits the entire stored document from memory.

Insert the document.

When a document is in the feeder, the LCD shows the current scanning width

and the amount of memory available:

If the fax is set for non-memory transmission, your machine simply dials

the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine feeds the document

through, scanning and transmitting it as it goes.

Document Ready

Memory100%

Note: The more “stuff” (called black coverage) your machine “sees” on a

page, the more slowly the page feeds through as the fax scans it. And

even if the page is relatively clean, sending it in greyscale mode or at

certain resolutions makes your machine “see” more “stuff.”

The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.

Reception modes

Your fax machine has five different reception modes — Tel Ready, Fax Ready,

Fax/ Tel Ready, Tel/ Fax Ready and Ans/ Fax Ready. We’ll explain each of these in

this section.

In any reception mode, you can always answer calls manually if you have an

optional handset installed. Just pick it up, as you would if using a normal phone.

If you hear someone speaking to you, use your

optional handset to speak back.

Tel Ready mode

Use it if:

and

• On that line, you’re using at least one other phone which is not

connected to your fax machine

If you hear fax tones (“beep — beep — beep”),

press START and hang up the optional handset.

The fax machine will begin receiving a fax.

• You have an optional handset installed on your fax machine

In th is m od e: Your fax machine never answers calls automatically. You must

Reduction margin

Your fax machine’s reduction margin is measured in millimetres (mm). We’ll define

reduction margin by explaining how it’s used:

half-page reception:

Half Page Recpt: Off

Program/Enter

When a fax message enters your machine’s electronic brain, the machine measures

the message’s length and compares it to (a ) the length of your selected paper p lu s

(b) the reduction margin you set. If the length of the incoming message is shorter

than (a ) and (b) put together, your machine prints the message on just one sheet.

If it’s longer, your machine prints the message on more than one sheet.

Press

or /P ROGRAM until the setting you want appears. In this example,

we’ve chosen On.

Half Page Recpt: On

Program/Enter

Note: An Auto reduction setting and a reduction margin setting of 24mm will

print most incoming faxes as single pages. Try this combination first and

then, only if you have problems with it, select different settings.

Press ENTER to save the setting.

Half-page reception

Half-page reception can conserve paper if some of the faxes you receive are half-

page, “memo-sized” messages. When activated, this feature tells the machine to

combine two of these half-page receptions onto a single sheet. Half-page reception

only combines half-page messages sent back-to-back during the same transmission.

It won’t combine two half-page faxes from separate transmissions.

Copy settings

You can set two parameters for copying:

•

Copy reduction rate — Works the same way as the print reduction rate (see page

2.2 for more details).

•

Reduction margin — Serves the same purpose as the reduction margin for

printing (see “Reduction margin,” left column).

Setting ECM

Use the numeric keypad to enter the reduction margin you want. If necessary,

press

“Line noise,” or static on the line during a call, can easily disrupt the flow of data

from one fax machine to another.

Copy Reduc Rate: 75%

Margin(00-85mm): 00

That’s why your fax machine gives you the option of using Error Correction Mode

(ECM). When two fax machines communicate while running in ECM, the sending

machine automatically checks the data as it sends. If the receiving fax machine can’t

verify the transmission, the first machine will re-send it as necessary.

Press ENTER to save the setting.

Note: ECM gives you a better chance of transmitting a fax document over a bad

phone line, but it could also slow down the transmission time. And the worse

the line is, the slower the transmission. That’s why the machine lets you

turn ECM on or off as needed.

Setting the number of rings

You can set how many times your fax machine will ring before answering a call.

Choose from 1 to 9 rings.

Note: Not all fax machines have ECM. If you’ve activated ECM and then transmit to

a fax machine not currently using ECM, there will be no change in the fax

transmission from a usual, non-ECM transmission.

Autodialler

Your fax machine’s autodialler stores your most frequently called phone and fax

numbers for instant recall so you don’t have to remember them. It’s something like

an electronic phone book.

Special Dialling Characters

Your fax machine allows you to enter special dialling characters when programming

the autodialler. These characters include hyphens and dashes, which make phone

numbers easier to read, and special characters needed for international calls.

The chart below briefly describes each of these characters. It also tells you what

keys to press on your fax machine to store those characters in your autodialler:

Autodialler basics

There are two kinds of autodialler numbers. The difference between the two is how

Autodialling fax and phone numbers

Your fax machine’s autodialler will hold more than just fax numbers. You can store

phone numbers, too.

If your fax machine is on a pulse (not

tone-dialling) line, switches from pulse-

dialling to tone (“DTMF”)-dialling.

Use after the actual phone number but

before any characters (such as a long-

distance carrier’s access code) which

must be in DTMF tone. Do not use on a

tone line.

DIALING OP TIONS (once),

then P ROGRAM (once), then

DIALING OP TIONS (3 times),

then P ROGRAM (once)

This is because when you use the autodialler to dial a number, the fax checks to see

if there’s a document in its feeder. If there is, the machine dials as a fax machine. If

there isn’t, it dials as a phone.

Location IDs and the EasyDial directory

When you store numbers in your autodialler, you can give these numbers descriptive

names, such as “Chicago office” or “Billing department”. Your machine calls this

name a Location ID.

Enter “flash” signal to exchange PABX

to PSTN before actual phone number.

However, “/” must be entered to the

first of number

Soft k ey which registered the

flash signal. (See page 2.24.)

Your machine’s autodialler sorts these location IDs alphabetically. Using your

EasyDial directory, you can look up these numbers by their descriptive names, just

as if you were using a phone book.

We’ll explain how to store the numbers and location IDs in the next few pages. The

EasyDial directory is discussed in detail on page 2.15.

to 40 characters in length:

As you set up your autodialler, you may also want to set up call groups. These are

sets of phone numbers that make it easy to send the same fax to many different

locations. For example, one call group may include all of your clients in one city,

another group may include all of your employees and another may include all your

vendors.

Broadcasting

Broadcasting basics

The fastest way to fax one document to many recipients is to broadcast it.

Delayed broadcasting

What if you want the broadcast to take place later? That’s the purpose of setting up

a delayed broadcast.

In an ordinary broadcast, you send the fax as you normally would, except you just

add more fax numbers. You can enter up to 230 numbers:

Note: Delayed commands are discussed in detail later. You may want to read

“Delayed transmission” on page 2.17 before proceeding.

• 30 manually-dialled numbers AND

• 200 autodialler numbers OR 1 call group with all 200 autodialler numbers

Follow steps 1–4 of “Broadcasting basics” (left column).

You ca n br oa d ca st u sin g a n y fu n ction th a t r equ ir es a fa x n u m ber to be

en ter ed . That means you can send a delayed broadcast, program a polling broad-

cast and even broadcast to “hub” units for F-Code relay broadcast initiation. All of

these are explained in this chapter.

Press COM-OP TIONS, ENTER.

Use the numeric keypad to enter the day of the month and time (in 24-hour

format) when you want the broadcast to occur.

Here, we’ve scheduled it for 10:15 PM on the 30th.

To send a broadcast fax:

Insert the document and make any necessary adjustments as you would for a

regular fax transmission.

Delayed

Enter Time: 30/22:15

Press BROADCAST.

When finished, press ENTER to save the setting.

Enter the first fax number, as usual. Use either a one-touch number, a speed-

dial number, a call group or a regular number dialled from the numeric

keypad.

Press START. Your machine will return to standby mode, while showing this on

the LCD:

To add more fax numbers, press BROADCAST between each one to insert a

comma. Then enter the number as described in step 3 (GROUP DIAL inserts its own

comma). You can send to up to 230 numbers for a broadcast.

This means your fax machine is “reserved” for the delayed broadcast you

just programmed, but it can still be used to send and receive faxes if your

broadcast document is stored in memory.

Press Start

Im p or ta n t: If you program all 99 delayed transmission commands, no further

memory transmission is possible until one or more of the commands is

completed. (To review memory transmission, see page 1.13.) However,

if all 99 delayed commands are programmed, you can always transmit

manually using monitor/speaker dialling or an optional handset (see

page 1.15).

Enter the fax number for the delayed transmission document. You can either

press a one-touch key, enter a speed-dial number or use the numeric keypad

Special features

Your fax machine has numerous special features to make your communications easier.

We’ll cover them here.

Setting the Soft Key

Press /P ROGRAM, E, 1, ENTER. The LCD shows:

Select Soft Key No.

1:Memory Tx

Soft Keys

Soft Keys are shortcut keys. You can program the soft keys on the control panel to

turn on or off any function with just the touch of a button. Your machine has four

Soft Keys. If the light above any one of these keys glows, that means the setting

programmed into that key is active.

. . . or indicates another function you’ve stored into this key.

Press

or /P ROGRAM until the Soft Key (1-4) you want to change appears.

In this example, we’ve chosen 3.

These keys are programmed at the factory to turn the following functions on or off:

Press ENTER. The LCD shows:

•

Memory transmission (see page 1.13)

Confirmation stamp (see page 2.6)

Security reception (see page 2.60–2.61)

Department codes (see page 2.66)

3:Security

Program/Enter

Press

or /P ROGRAM until the function appears that you want to program

into the key. In this example, we’ve chosen Quick Tx.

Note: The keys that are programmed at the factory turn the functions above them

on and off, but only for the next transmission that you send from your fax

machine. Once that transmission is complete, your machine returns to its

default setting.

3:Quick Tx

Program/Enter

Press ENTER to save the setting.

The LCD will display the next Soft Key.

If you do want to set this Soft Key, go back step 3.

If you do not want to set the currently displayed Soft Key but do want to set

another Soft Key, go back to step 2.

But instead of using the Soft Keys to control the functions above, you can program

them to turn other functions on or off. These functions are:

•

Activity journal printouts (see page 2.27)

Half-page reception (see page 2.3)

ECM (see page 2.4)

Closed network (see page 2.64)

Cover page (see page 2.26)

Operation protection (see page 2.59)

Quick memory transmission (see page 2.29)

Department protection (see page 2.67)

Copy & Fax feature (see page 2.25)

Access to alternative telephone network (see page 2.33)

Flash signal (see page 2.7)

If you do not want to set any more Soft Keys, press STOP to finish.

Now you can use the labels included in your machine’s original packaging to label

the Soft Key function you just set. You can also print out a list of the Soft Keys (see

below).

Printing a list of Soft Keys

A list of your Soft Keys includes each key’s number and the function you’ve assigned

to it.

To print the list, press

/P ROGRAM, E, 2, ENTER.

Note: And instead of just turning the function on or off for the next transmission,

as the factory-set keys do, changing the Soft Key settings actually sets the

default for your fax machine. (These default settings can be changed, if

necessary. They are not permanent.)

Quick Memory transmission

Using Quick Memory transmission can save you time over standard

memory transmissions.

Polling

Polling allows someone to fax a document to you without having to make the call or

pay for it. There are several kinds of polling:

For a normal memory transmission, your fax: (1) scans your entire document into

memory, (2) dials the other fax machine, then (3) transmits the document.

•

Regular polling — Your fax retrieves a document from a remote fax machine.

F-Code polling — Your fax retrieves a document stored as a file in the remote fax

machine. To do this, you must be communicating with another F-code-compatible

fax machine. For more information on F-Code polling, see “F-Code communication,”

pages 2.35–2.44.

But with Quick Memory transmission, your machine doesn’t wait to scan all pages

into memory before dialling. After it scans the first page of your document, your

machine dials the call. While dialling, connecting and transmitting, your fax

machine continues to scan in the remaining pages of the document.

•

Continuous polling — Your fax continuously retrieves a document from any

remote fax machine at a designated time. For example, a hospital pharmacy can

use this to check on orders waiting in fax machines throughout the hospital.

You can set your fax to always use Quick Memory transmission as the default.

Im p or ta n t: Your fax machine’s memory transmission feature must be turned on

For polling to work, the remote machine must also be set up to be polled. See the

remote machine’s operating instructions, if necessary.

Im p or ta n t: For this feature to work, the remote fax machine must have a similar

call-request capability. Your machine must also have an optional

handset attached.

Limiting polling access to your fax machine

Your machine’s closed network setting (see page 2.64) works for polling, also. If a

calling fax doesn’t “present” the proper passcode, it cannot poll from your fax.

Note: Communicating this way disables “V.34” mode, causing the fax machine to

handle the call in normal ITU-T Group 3 fashion. See page 3.18 for more

information.

Note: If you’re using the Block Junk Fax feature (see pages 2.64–2.65), even

incoming calls which meet the passcode test must come from phone

numbers you’ve approved.

The power of Multi access

Your fax machine’s multi access feature sharply reduces the time you might spend

waiting for the machine to finish its work. Multi access is a more powerful version

of what already is a pretty powerful feature, called dual access. While a fax with nor-

mal dual access allows you to do two things at once, multi access allows you to do four

operations at once. For example, even if the machine is (1) printing a copy, (2) trans-

mitting from memory and (3) scanning documents for a different memory

transmission, you can still (4) program the machine.

F-Code communication

F-Code: an introduction

Creating or modifying an F-Code box

The ITU-T, part of the United Nations agency that standardizes international

telecommunications, has created a fax industry standard for using sub-addressing

and password-based communications. One name for this standard is F-Code, and

that’s what we’ll call it in these instructions and on your machine’s display.

Choosing the F-Code box type

Before you set up an F-Code box, first decide how your callers will use it — as a

bulletin box, a security box or a relay box.

•

Bu lletin box — Stores documents that people in remote locations retrieve by

polling the box. For example, your sales branches could call in at any time to get

a printout of your latest prices that you’ve stored in a bulletin box.

How sub-addressing works

To help understand sub-addressing, think about how someone in a large company

receives mail. For example, mail for the Accounting department is first delivered to

the company’s main mailroom. Then the mailroom routes the mail to Accounting.

A bulletin box stores both scanned and retrieved documents, and it holds its

contents indefinitely (as long as the unit has AC power).

That’s the idea behind sub-addressing. Your fax and another F-Code-compatible fax

exchange special signals to indicate just where the fax really should go. It’s as if the

sending fax is saying, “Deliver this to room 48,” and the receiving fax does just that.

•

Secu r ity box — Receives and stores F-Code secure communications.

Rela y box — Receives documents, then relays them to other machines. The

machine that relays the document is called a “hub”. Your fax machine can be a

hub.

Your machine has up to 50 mailboxes for these special deliveries. When someone

sends an F-Code fax to you, your machine receives it into one of those 50 mailboxes

— whichever box the sender chooses.

4 elements of an F-Code box

Each F-Code box has the following four elements:

(1) F-Code box number (01-50)

Sending F-Code securely

For greater security, you can set up a password with each F-Code sub-address,

which lets you use secure transmission, polling and relay broadcasting when com-

municating with any other F-Code compatible fax machine.

(2) F-Code box name (up to 16 characters)

(3) F-Code sub-address (up to 20 characters - can include numbers and the * and #

characters only)

Guidelines for using F-Code

(4) I.D. Code (4 digits)

(1) To use ITU-T sub-addressing, you must create F-Code boxes in your machine

You will choose the information for each of these elements, and enter it into your

machine. The following steps will walk you through entering and changing that

information.

(2) Your machine holds up to 50 of these boxes

(3) Your machine stores up to 30 documents into each F-Code box (each document

can include one or more pages)

To create or modify an F-Code box:

Enter the name the same way you entered your fax name during EasyStart.

An F-Code box’s name can be up to 16 characters in length.

Keep pen and paper with you as you follow these steps. As you decide on a

sub-address and enter it into your machine, write it down. Remember to: (1)

Printing from security reception / Turning off security reception

When security reception is on, an incoming fax goes directly into your machine’s

memory and the MEMORY RECEIVE light comes on. But the fax is not printed.

Masking the PIN

To prevent unauthorised long-distance calls, some office telephone systems require

you to enter a personal identification number (PIN) whenever you dial long distance.

To retrieve the faxes received during this security reception (and to return your

machine to normal reception until the next time):

Your fax’s PIN mask feature helps you keep that PIN number private. With the PIN

mask activated, you can dial a fax number plus a PIN, but the PIN will not appear in

a journal, error message printout, delayed command list or a TCR. The PIN may be up

to eight characters in length. It also can include the * or # symbols, and it can be

entered from the numeric keypad.

Note: If you select Mode 1 and you will use a one-touch or speed-dial number, you

must store the remote unit’s PIN access code within that number. However, if

you select Mode 2, this isn’t necessary. (See “Autodialling while using the PIN

mask,” next page, right column for further details.)

Press ENTER.

•

If you’ve entered the correct passcode, your fax machine will print all docu-

ments in its memory and then erase them. Then it will turn security

reception off until the next time you’ve scheduled security reception or the

Your fax’s security transmission feature provides extra assurance that your documents

go where you’re sending them. When this feature is activated and your machine sends a

fax, the machine compares the last four digits of the dialled number to the other unit’s

Subscriber ID (the phone number at the top of that unit’s transmissions; see page 1.10).

If these digits match, your call goes through. If they don’t, your machine disconnects the

call and prints an error message telling you to check the condition of the remote unit.

Press START. Your machine dials the number.

Before you activate this feature, consider:

Performing batch transmission while using the PIN mask

•

Not all fax machine owners enter their phone numbers in their Subscriber IDs. —

Indeed, some machines don’t even have a Subscriber ID. So, with security trans-

mission activated, your machine would disconnect its calls to such machines.

Note: The following instructions presume you are familiar with how to set and use

both your machine’s autodialler and its batch transmission feature. If you

need to review, see pages 2.7–2.15 for more on the autodialler and/or pages

2.20–2.23 for more on batch transmission.

•

Access codes can cause confusion. — If an autodialler entry ends with a long-dis-

tance or other access codes, activating this feature prevents calls to that fax.

Note: In the following instructions, your fax’s LCD abbreviates Transmission as Tx.

If you ’ve specified Mod e 1 or Mod e 2

Press /P ROGRAM, , 1, 1, ENTER. The LCD shows the current setting:

Setting for use with a closed network

For maximum communications security, use a closed network. This limits your

machine to only communicating with other Muratec fax machines which can “pre-

sent” the proper passcode.

Setting Block Junk Fax

Your fax machine’s Block J unk Fax feature lets you bar the gates against unautho-

rised incoming faxes (“junk fax”). But before you block junk fax, first understand

how this feature works, to determine if it’s right for you. There are four possible set-

tings for Block Junk Fax:

the protection passcode.

Once your machine is set up for a closed network, your machine will disconnect calls

coming in from fax machines other than Muratec fax machines.

Mode1 — Your fax machine checks whether the last four digits of any phone

number in your autodialler matches the last four digits of the remote fax’s sub-

scriber ID (the phone number part of the TTI). If it doesn’t find a match, your

machine disconnects the call.

To set your fax machine’s closed network password:

Decide on the four-digit closed network passcode (0001– 9999) you want to use.

Wr ite it down , and put it in a safe place.

•

Mode2 — This mode rejects any call from a number whose last eight digits

match any number in the blocked numbers list (explained later). Your machine

can hold up to 30 blocked numbers.

Press /P ROGRAM, , 0, 9, ENTER. The LCD shows the current code:

Mode3 — This rejects numbers that are not in the autodialler and also rejects

numbers that are in the blocked numbers list. This lets you keep a number on

your autodialler for transmission to it, while still blocking its incoming calls by

putting it in the blocked numbers list.

Set Passcode

Use the numeric keypad to enter the desired four-digit closed network passcode.

Access codes can cause confusion. — If an autodialler entry ends with extra

codes, such as long-distance codes, Block Junk Fax will block out calls from those

faxes.

change the code to 0000 by repeating steps 1–4 and entering 0000 in step 3.

If you have unsatisfactory printout quality

Corrective cleaning

Below are some simple cleaning tips for keeping your fax machine operating

smoothly.

Your machine automatically cleans its charger and transport roller, two items which

are very important to printout quality. If you notice poor printout quality, it may

mean that your machine requires service. Review “Print quality problems” (pages

3.3– 3.4), and see if any of the proposed solutions helps your machine. If these don’t

help, please call your authorised Muratec dealer.

Curing frequent jams in the document feeder

If you’re having trouble getting your original documents to feed properly, try this:

Turn off your fax machine.

Get two soft, lint-free cloths and moisten them as follows:

•

One with a cleaner suitable for use on platen/rubber rollers

The other with isopropyl alcohol

Press the scanner cover release and

Common questions

Q: Can I transmit and receive at the same time?

General questions

A: No. Use the call request feature (see page 2.31) to ask the person at the remote

fax machine if he or she wants to transmit or receive after your fax communica-

tion is complete.

Q: Where do I add ink or toner to make my fax machine’s printouts darker?

A: You can’t adjust the darkness of an incoming fax printout, but you can adjust

the darkness of a copy or of a transmission. Insert a document and press CON-

TRAST to adjust the contrast setting. “Dark” prints at the darkest setting. The

machine will reset automatically to normal contrast after you finish copying or

sending the fax.

Q: How do I send a fax to an overseas telephone number?

A: Dialling requirements for international calls may vary depending on your local

telephone company’s requirements. For most international calls, call 010 or 00,

then dial the appropriate country code, city code and phone number. (You may

find country and city codes in the front section of your telephone directory.)

Q: When I unplug my machine or if the power goes off, will I lose the information

I’ve stored — such as my TTI, autodialler entries, the time and date, etc. — and

have to re-enter them?

Q: Can I transmit if my fax machine runs out of paper?

A: No. There’s a special battery built into your fax machine which protects user

settings for several days if power fails or if you decide to move your machine.

However, we do advise you to restore power to the machine as soon as possible.

A: Yes, but confirmation reports (see page 2.28) are not available when you trans-

mit without recording paper in your fax machine.

Q: Can I transmit a document that’s extra long?

Q: Can I use a dust cover on my fax machine?

A: Yes, if the receiving fax machine is equipped to handle long documents. Many

machines have a special setting which allows them to receive documents that

exceed the normal length.

A: No! A dust cover blocks air circulation, which could cause your machine to over-

heat.

Q: Can I transmit a page from a newspaper?

Sending faxes

Q: Sometimes, I try to send a fax while using either the optional handset or the

MONITOR/CALL feature. But, when the other side answers, I hear a horrible

screeching sound, so I hang up. What’s happening?

A: No. A newspaper page can jam in your document feeder. First, use a copy

machine to make an appropriately sized copy of the newspaper page, then

transmit the copy.

Q: Can I transmit a page with correction fluid on it?

A: That was the other fax machine trying to say “Hello” to your machine! You’ll

hear sounds like that any time you call a fax machine which is set to answer

automatically (as when you set your machine to Auto Answer mode). It’s by

using these tones that fax machines are able to send faxes over ordinary phone

lines. So, next time you hear the tones, press START (and, if you’re using an

optional handset, hang up) to send a fax.

A: Yes, but only if the fluid is completely dry before you begin transmission.

Q: How can I be sure my fax was received?

A: Set your machine to print a confirmation report after each transmission (see

pages 2.28).

Q: I just sent a fax. However, the number that appeared in my machine’s display

during the transmission wasn’t the number I dialled. Why?

A: That number you saw is programmed into the remote fax machine by the user.

Some users prefer different numbers to appear than the ones they’re really

using. And some people don’t know how to change the number once it’s set.

Just in case …

Q: I don’t want to install a dedicated phone line for my fax machine, so I’ve con-

nected the machine to a PBX phone system. When I get a fax call, all the phones

ring. How do I prevent this?

Q: What’s a default?

A: A default is a setting that your machine will always refer to if nothing else is

programmed. For example, you can set the default for this machine to send a

fax by using its memory. If you set this action as the default, that’s how your

machine will always send a fax, until you tell it to do differently.

A: Call your PBX manufacturer or telephone company for assistance. They may be

able to convert one of the PBX lines for use only by your fax machine.

Q: Sometimes when I dial a fax call by using either the optional handset or

MONITOR/CALL, I don’t hear the fax receiving tones from the other machine.

Am I doing something wrong?

Reports

A: When this happens, try pressing START (and then hanging up the optional

handset if you’re using it), as usual. It’s possible you’re calling an older, non-

standard fax machine that doesn’t emit answering tones. Even a few Group 3

faxes (see “Glossary,” page 3.15) on the market sound a sending tone but don’t

sound a receiving tone. After you transmit, call the person at the other fax

machine’s location to see if that person got your document.

Q: I called the number 011-555-555-1212, but not all of the digits appear on my

transmit confirmation report (TCR). Why didn’t the whole number appear? How

can I be sure my document went to the right location?

A: The numbers you enter using the fax keypad are temporarily stored in a mem-

ory “buffer”, and it’s only the last part of the phone number that the buffer

“remembers.” An easy way to avoid getting incomplete telephone numbers on

your printouts is to store your most frequently used numbers as one-touch keys

or speed-dial numbers. These autodialler numbers will appear in their entirety

on your TCR.

Q: I inserted a document in the feeder and dialled a fax number, but my machine

didn’t transmit the document. Instead, “** Auto Redial **” now appears on

my LCD. What does this mean?

A: The remote fax machine was busy, so your machine will try the call again, auto-

matically. As long as it hasn’t stored more than 99 delayed commands (counting

automatic redials), your machine should still accept commands from you. If it

has exceeded this quantity and will accept no more commands, try cancelling

one of the delayed commands (see pages 2.18). If the machine still won’t cooper-

ate, keep cancelling commands until it does.

Receiving faxes

Q: My fax never answers. What’s wrong?

A: Check to make sure your fax machine is properly connected to a working AC

power outlet and phone jack (see pages 1.6– 1.8). If you’re using a second phone

with your machine, make sure it’s connected properly (page 1.9).

Q: The specifications (page AI.1) list an average per-page transmission time, but

when I transmit a page it can take much longer. Why?

Q: Sometimes when I answer my machine with the optional handset, I hear a

A: We base this specification on transmission of an industry-standard test docu-

ment called ITU-T Test Document 1 (sometimes also called the “Slerexe letter”).

Fax manufacturers use this method to test transmission speeds. However:

beeping sound that repeats every few seconds. Is this a fax?

A: Yes. When you hear these fax tones, someone is trying to send you a fax. Next

time, press START and hang up the handset. Your fax will receive the message.

•

The pages you send may be darker, or otherwise contain more information,

than ITU-T Test Document 1.

Q: Does my fax machine have to be plugged in to the AC power jack to receive a

message?

•

The transmission time measured for test documents doesn’t include hand-

shake time — the time during which two fax machines “introduce”

themselves to each other and “agree on” the parameters of the call.

A: Yes. Your phone will ring if the phone line is connected, but you can’t receive a

fax unless your fax machine is plugged into both the phone jack and the AC

power jack. Make sure your fax machine is always plugged in so you never miss

an important fax message.

•

The specification time is based on the use of normal resolution mode. You

may be using fine, superfine or greyscale transmission, each of which takes

longer than normal mode.

Q: Can I receive a fax if I’m using the phone on my machine?

A: You can receive a fax from the person to whom you’re talking. When that per-

son has a document ready in his/her machine’s feeder, press START.

machine’s message, but are cut off before they can send a fax. What happened?

A: Any remote fax machine attempting to send a fax must “hear” responding fax

tones within 40 seconds after the person at that machine presses the start key.

That 40 seconds includes getting the dial tone, dialling the number, “listening”

to the pause before the ringing starts and the remote fax machine answering

the ring. Only after that time does your message play.

•

The remote fax machine prints the representation.

The only difference between a regular telephone call and a fax call is the content of

the transmission:

That’s why we urge you to create a short outgoing message. The shorter the

waiting period, the more likely it is that the remote fax machine will proceed

with the transmission. Please create an outgoing message on your answering

machine that’s no longer than 10 seconds (see page 1.20 for a suggestion).

•

On a regular call, your telephone sends your voice.

On a fax call, your fax machine sends a coded image.

The way fax machines work is regulated closely by the International

Telecommunications Union (ITU), an agency of the United Nations. The standards the

ITU applies ensure the compatibility of your fax machine with millions of other

machines world-wide. However, they also limit the way you can use your machine

with other devices, such as telephones and answering machines.

Polling

Q: What’s the purpose of polling?

A: Polling lets you automatically “pull” a document which is set in another fax

machine. You can poll whenever you need to retrieve information and don’t

want the source to pay for the phone call. With polling, you pay for the call and

get the information you need.

How your fax machine works

How a fax machine works is simple:

You put a page into your fax machine’s feeder and call a fax number. Your machine

makes a satisfactory connection with the other machine, and then …

•

Your machine takes the document.

An image scanner in your fax machine examines the information on the page.

•

Your machine wraps the document.

Your fax machine translates the scanned information into a numeric code and

compresses the code for the fastest possible transmission speed.

•

Your machine sends the document.

Finally, your fax machine sends the compressed code.

Glossary

This glossary contains terms you may encounter when discussing or reading about fax

machines. Please use these definitions for reference only.

Br oa d ca st — A fax transmission in which a single document is sent to more than one loca-

tion.

bp s — Bits per second. Used to express the speed of transmission of data. Because fax trans-

mission treats a document as a graphic image rather than as a series of alphabetic and

numeric characters, bps does not correspond to the number of characters transmitted per sec-

ond.

24-h ou r for m a t — Also called military format. A format for keeping time that does not use

a.m. or p.m. to distinguish between morning and afternoon. In the 24-hour format, one o’clock

in the morning marks 1:00, noon marks 12:00 and midnight marks 24:00. To calculate the 24-

hour format, add 12 hours to all times after noon.

Byte — A group of digital elements, usually sent as eight bits to the byte.

For example, 1:30 p.m. would be 13:30 in the 24-hour format; 10:45 p.m. would be 22:45 in the

Ca ll r eser ve — Also called call request. An ITU-T standard fax feature which allows a user to

24-hour format. And 11:15 a.m. would be 11:15 in the 24-hour format.

request voice communication prior to, during or after transmission.

A3, A4, B4 — Standard stationery sizes defined by the International Standards

Organisation, an agency of the United Nations. See also Paper sizes.

Ca ll-w a itin g ser vice — An optional telephone company service that alerts you to another

incoming call when the phone is already in use. Call-waiting signals often cause interruption

of fax transmission or reception.

ADF — Automatic document feeder. See document feeder.

Ca ller ID — Optional service provided by your local telephone company that allows you to

see a display of the number (phone or fax) that is calling.

Alter n a te n u m ber — The number your machine dials after all attempts to the regular

number fail. The user programs this alternate number, if so desired.

CCITT — See ITU-T

An sw er in g m a ch in e — See TAD.

CCD, CIS — Charged coupled device, contact image sensor. Two types of scanning mechanisms

used in some Muratec fax machines. The CCD “reads” fluorescent light bouncing off a docu-

ment. The CIS uses a flat bar of light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

Au tod ia llin g — Enables user to store preprogrammed telephone numbers in the unit’s

memory. Storage capability varies from unit to unit.

Au tom a tic fa llba ck — The ability of a fax machine to slow down (“fall back”), when commu-

nicating with another fax which is communicating at a slower rate.

Com m a n d qu eu e — The “list” your machine keeps of all its pending commands.

Com m a n d n u m ber — The number your machine gives to each “job” it is programmed to

complete. You must know the command number in order to cancel or change any of the

machine’s jobs that it stores.

Au tom a tic r ed u ction — Many Muratec fax machines will automatically reduce the size of

documents being transmitted to accommodate the effective printing width of the receiving

unit. For example, this allows a fax machine with a 10″ scanning width to send an image 10″

wide to a unit with an 8.5″ print width. The receiving fax machine will receive a reduced-size

printout of the complete image.

Com p a tibility — The term “compatible” describes the ability of separate things to function

together. Your Muratec fax machine features ITU-T Group 3 compatibility, the modern stan-

dard for world-wide communication.

Bit — The smallest unit of information in a computer. Some Muratec fax machines, which

are actually computers “dedicated” to telecommunications, allow users to change bits of infor-

mation to provide or cancel features through software settings.

Con fid en tia l tr a n sm ission — See SecureMail.

Con fir m a tion r ep or t — See RCR and TCR.

Bits p er secon d — See bps.

Con tin u ou s p ollin g — See Polling.

Bla ck d en sity — Also called black coverage. The amount of non-white area on a page. For

example, most regular office correspondence has a black density well under 10%, due to the

presence of margins, spaces between words, spaces between lines and paragraphs and even

spaces within letters. However, drawings and photographs have a much higher black density,

sometimes approaching 100%. The higher a page’s black density, the more slowly a fax

machine sends it.

Cop y m od e — Allows your fax machine to be used as a convenience copier.

Cover p a ge (a u tom a tic) — A small, user-created message; can be the first page of every

transmission.

Da ta ba se p ollin g — See Polling.

Da ta com p r ession — Used in digital fax machines to speed transmission. See also Digital

fax, MH and MSE, SMSE.

Defa u lt — The setting your machine will always refer to if no other action has been pro-

Gr eysca le — Not a level of resolution, but a method of scanning and transmitting halftone

images. Fax machines with greyscale abilities interpret photographs in

levels of grey between white and black. The transmitting fax machine must have greyscale

ability to send a photographic image accurately, but the receiving machine does not need it to

print the image.

grammed. For example, you can set the default for this machine to send a fax by using its

memory. If you set this action as the default, that’s how your machine will always send a fax,

until you tell it to do differently.

Dela yed com m a n d — Transmission or polling operation set by the user to occur later, auto-

matically, at a predetermined time. Great for reducing costs by making fax calls during times

when telephone costs are lowest, such as late at night or on weekends.

Gr ou p 3 — Refers to fax machines that use digital encoding. These units transmit one page

in less than one minute and produce resolution of 8 dots/mm

× 7.7 lines/mm V, 16 dots/mm × 15.4 lines/mm

Ha lfton e — See Greyscale.

× 3.85 lines/mm V, 8 dots/mm

Digita l — Using the binary system (which uses a combination of 0s or 1s) to describe every-

thing, so that 0 means off and 1 means on; digital fax machines convert the graphic image of

your document into a series of zeros and ones by using the binary system of transmission to

encode black and white occurrences. This increases transmission speed by passing over white

spaces. See also White-line skip.

Ha n d sh a k in g — An exchange of data between telecommunications and/or

computer equipment that “introduces” two systems to each other. For example, faxes use a

handshaking protocol to identify the ITU-T group of each unit and to begin fax communication.

Digita l fa x — Unlike analogue systems that scan every portion of a document, digital fax

machines survey a document’s overall picture content. Digital fax machines scan a line and

convert the information into a binary code of zeros and ones. The fax machine takes this

information and compresses it, providing high transmission speeds. Many Muratec units

offer proprietary methods for faster transmissions between Muratec-manufactured units (see

also MSE, SMSE).

Hu b — See Relay broadcasting.

Hz (or Her tz) — A measure of frequency equal to one cycle per second. Used in the specifica-

tions for a fax machine, it identifies the AC power the unit requires.

ITU-T — International Telecommunications Union – Telecommunications Sector. (Formerly

known as CCITT, for Consultative Committee for International Telegraph and Telephone.) A

telecommunications forum for member countries of the United Nations whose Study Group

XIV established the primary groups for fax equipment, covering communication protocol and

transmission. Muratec Group 3 fax machines offer the fastest transmissions allowed by the

ITU-T when communicating with other Group 3 units.

DIP sw itch es — Dual in-line package switch; a two-position on/off switch. Many Muratec fax

machines include DIP switches to control optional settings or features.

Docu m en t feed er — The adjustable slot into which users place documents for faxing or

copying.

ITU-T Test Docu m en t 1 — Also called the Slerexe (“slehr-rehks”) letter; An ITU-T standard

document with a known black density which fax makers often use to test transmission

speeds of their fax machines. Published transmission speeds are also based on this document.

Effective p r in tin g w id th — The widest image that can be printed on a fax.

Effective sca n w id th — The maximum width the scanner in a fax can scan during trans-

mission.

ITU-T V.29 a n d V.27 ter. — A standard set of communication procedures allowing fax

F -Cod e — A fax-industry standard created by the ITU-T for sub-addressing/password-based

communications. Because F-Code is an industry standard, Muratec fax machines as well as

all ITU-T equipped fax machines from other manufacturers can communicate with each other

using sub-addressing.

machines to talk to all other units adhering to those standards.

J BIG — Joint Bi-level Image experts Group, the new ITU-T standard image data compression

method. As J BIG compresses the data more efficiently than MMR, it is especially effective when

transmitting halftone (greyscale) image document.

Fa csim ile (or fa x) — A form of communication involving the scanning and decoding of a docu-

ment into electrical signals and transmitting of the document, over telephone lines to another

device. This device then reconstructs the signals to produce an exact duplicate of the document.

Also, a machine that performs such communication.

(Of course, the compression ratio may vary with the image data.)

La ser p r in tin g — A plain-paper printing system. Toner is attached to a charged drum and

an image is transferred onto plain paper through electrical currents, then fused with heat

and pressure to produce a dry, permanent printout.

Fa llba ck — Group 3 fax machines operate at the highest transmission speed possible on a

given telephone line. Muratec systems offer automatic fallback; if line quality drops during

transmission, the fax machine will reduce speed to the fastest possible level.

LCD — Liquid crystal display. Used on some Muratec units for status displays.

Lea sed lin e — See Private line.

Loa d n u m ber — A number assigned to telecommunications equipment used in Canada;

designed to help prevent overloading on a telephone circuit. See also Ringer equivalence num-

ber.

File n u m ber — A number the machine gives to each document it stores for a batch, F-Code

or polling operation.

Mem or y — 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.

Over r id e — To change existing settings.

Pa p er sizes — All are width × length:

Letter-sized = 8.5″ ×11.0″ (216 × 279 mm)

A5 = 5.8″ × 8.3″ (148 × 210 mm)

A3 = 11.7″ ×16.5″ (297 × 420 mm)

B4 = 10.1″ ×14.3″ (257 × 364 mm)

Pa sscod e — A four-digit code-number. On your fax machine, the protection passcode lets the

user limit access to fax operations, as well as certain settings and even documents readied for

polling (in the case of polling, only calling machines whose users enter the proper passcode

will be able to poll the document.)

Legal-sized = 8.5″ ×14.0″ (216 × 356 mm)

Mem or y over flow — 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.

A4 = 8.3″ ×11.7″ (210 × 297 mm)

B5 = 7.2″ ×10.1″ (182 × 257 mm)

MH — Modified Huffman, the standard ITU-T Group 3 data compression method. A one-dimen-

sional coding scheme that compresses data in a horizontal direction only. A feature of all

Muratec fax machines, MH assures transmissions faster than one page per minute when com-

municating with other Group 3 units, regardless of

manufacturer. See also MR, MMR, MSE, SMSE.

P BX (or PABX) — Private branch exchange; privately-owned telephone equipment serving a

particular building, business or area. Many PBX systems use digital transmission lines which,

unlike more common PSTN lines, are not compatible with fax machine use. The user should

not connect a fax unit to a PBX without first checking with the system manufacturer or ser-

vice representative.

Milita r y for m a t — See 24-hour format.

Mod em — Modulator-demodulator. A device that converts digital data, like information from

a fax machine, into an analogue signal for transmission over ordinary telephone lines. A

modem is included in a fax machine and allows it to be connected directly to a PSTN telephone

line.

P CL — Page Control Language. An industry standard for printer control. Some Muratec fax

machines include or offer PCL-compatible printing for Windows-based personal computers.

MR — Modified Read, an ITU-T Group 3 standard data compression method. A two-dimen-

sional coding scheme that compresses data in both horizontal and vertical directions and

allows for faster transmission when communicating with other Group 3 units, regardless of

manufacturer. See also MH, MMR, MSE, SMSE.

P la ten — A traditional copier-style top to a fax machine or digital copier. Some Muratec fax

machines and multifunctional products include a platen top, allowing you to fax from books

and other awkward sources.

MMR — Modified Modified Read, an ITU-T Group 3 standard data compression method. A two-

dimensional coding scheme that compresses data in both horizontal and vertical directions

and allows for faster transmission when communicating with other Group 3 units, regardless

of manufacturer. See also MH, MR, MSE, SMSE.

Pollin g — Automatic transmission to a calling remote fax, or reception of a document from a

remote fax set for this operation. Polling is convenient whenever a central unit must receive

information from one or several remote faxes. The caller bears all telephone charges and pre-

vents several remote units from calling at the same time. See also Secure polling.

Mon itor — A speaker in most Muratec fax machines which allows the user to hear the

dialling process. This is not a speakerphone, because it has no microphone for speaking to the

person being called. For regular two-way voice communication, users must use the optional

handset. See also On-hook dialling.

P r iva te lin e — (Or leased line.) A service offered by many telephone systems; provides an

exclusive phone circuit between two geographic points. A Muratec fax does not require a pri-

vate line. See also PSTN.

P r op r ieta r y — Non-standard. In fax, refers to a fax feature which works only in communi-

cations between fax machines that are the same brand.

MSE, SMSE — Muratec’s proprietary data compression methods, allowing a Muratec-manufac-

tured fax machine to transmit more quickly when communicating with another

Muratec-manufactured unit. MSE and SMSE are features on many Muratec fax machines. See

also MH, MR, MMR.

P STN — Public switched telephone network; the most common type of telephone lines and

service in use, in contrast to private or leased lines. A Muratec fax provides fast, reliable data

transmission over a PSTN line, and does not need a special or dedicated telephone line. See

also Private line.

Mu lti a ccess — Multi access allows your Muratec fax machine to perform four or more tasks

simultaneously without slowing.

RCR — Receive confirmation report. An RCR is your assurance that the document you trans-

mitted was received. The RCR prints after your transmission, identifying the receiving unit

and recording the date, time, transmission mode, number of pages sent and the result. The

RCR is an exclusive feature of Muratec fax machines and is available only when transmitting

to other, compatible Muratec fax machines. See also TCR.

On e-tou ch d ia llin g — Allows the fax user to store frequently used fax numbers for dialling

with the touch of one key. See also Autodialling and Speed-dialling.

On -h ook d ia llin g — Dialling numbers by using the keypad on the fax unit without lifting a

handset. On most Muratec fax models, the user can do this either silently or by using the

monitor. See also Monitor.

Receiver ID — See Station ID.

Red ia llin g — The dialling again, either manually or automatically controlled, of the most

recently dialled fax or phone number. Automatic redialling follows an unsuccessful dialling

attempt and can be done manually or automatically.

to relay (re-transmit) the document to each fax in a call group in the “hub” unit. This feature

speeds extremely high-volume fax communication and allows a single command to initiate

document transmission to hundreds of preprogrammed fax locations. It also saves phone

charges for the originating machine. Your machine can initiate a relay broadcast.

superfine transmission mode is Group-3-compatible, not the more limited proprietary ver-

TAD — Telephone answering device, or answering machine. Records incoming voice messages

for playback. You can connect a TAD to a Muratec fax machine and use the two on one phone

line.

Rem ote fa x m a ch in e — The machine on the other “end” of a fax communication.

TCR — Transmit confirmation report; this provides proof that your Muratec fax did send the

document you set for transmission. Printed after transmission, the TCR also identifies the

telephone number to which the fax sent the document, plus the actual time of transmission

and how many pages the unit transmitted. See also RCR.

REN — See Ringer equivalence number.

Resolu tion — The resolution of documents transmitted or copied by fax machines is mea-

sured by the number of horizontal (H) dots per millimetre and vertical (V) lines per millimetre

the unit can print. A Muratec unit may offer one or more of these resolution levels:

Th er m a l (p a p er ) p r in tin g — A thermal head heats chemically treated, thermally sensitive

paper in patterns conforming to the image the machine has scanned, creating a printed

image. Thermal paper’s tendency to discolour and fade, in addition to its curliness and the

usual difficulty in writing on it, have made this method considerably less popular than plain-

paper fax printing — particularly as plain-paper fax machines have dropped sharply in price.
