Redialing

 The dialing again, either manually or automatically controlled, of the most

recently dialed fax or phone number. Automatic redialing follows an unsuccessful dialing
attempt and can be done manually or automatically.

Relay broadcasting  Lets some Muratec fax machines store a document in internal mem-
ory, transmit the document to the memory of a remote  h u b fax and then instruct that unit
to relay (re-transmit) the document to each fax in a call group in the  h u b 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.

Remote fax machine

 The machine on the other  e n d of a fax communication.

REN

  S e e  Ringer equivalence number.

Resolution

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

sured by the number of horizontal (

H

) and vertical (

V

) lines per inch (lpi) the unit can print. A

Muratec unit may offer one or more of these resolution levels:

Normal

Some Muratec units also offer grayscale transmission (see also Grayscale) for accurate repro-
duction of photographs and other shaded originals.

Ringer equivalence number

 Also called 

REN

. A number assigned to telecommunications

equipment used in the United States; designed to prevent overloading on a telephone circuit.
See also Load number.

Scanning width   S e e  Effective scanning width.

SecureMail

 Allows a Muratec fax user to send a document to or receive one into (usually

something confidential) an  electronic mail box. The transmission is protected at the receiv-
ing Muratec fax by an access code; the receiving fax prints the document only when an
authorized user enters the code.

Secure polling   Polling in which preset passcodes are checked between two machines
before polling is allowed to take place.

Speed-dialing

 Allows the fax user to store frequently used fax numbers for dialing with

the touch of three keys   an identifier key (either * or #) and then a three-digit code   for
each number. See also Autodialing and One-touch dialing.

Station 

ID

 (Also called Location 

ID

or Receiver 

ID

.) An autodialer feature which lets the fax

user enter a descriptive name to correspond with the number in an autodialer entry. For
example, rather than entering only 1-972-555-3465, the user can enter that number and a
name, such as Dallas Branch Office. (Many Muratec models with this feature allow entry of
both upper-case and lower-case letters, for greater ease of reading.)

Subaddressing   An ITU-T standard allowing fax machines to specify special delivery
characteristics of a transmission. For example, subaddressing allows fax machines from dif-
ferent manufacturers to send and receive messages into confidential memory mailboxes, or to
retrieve specific files from polling memory.

Subscriber 

ID

 A fax machine s telephone number, as identified by a user setting. See 

TTI

.

Super Group 3   An extension of Group 3 fax technology standards, allowing the use of
high-speed v.34 bis modems for 33.6 Kbps transmission and high-speed protocols for rapid
handshaking.

lpi. Your Muratec fax machine s superfine transmis-

sion mode is Group-3-compatible, not the more limited proprietary version.

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.

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

.

Thermal (paper) printing

 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 discolor 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.

TriAccess   M u r a t e c s TriAccess allows a Muratec fax machine to perform three or more
tasks simultaneously without slowing.

TTI

 Transmit terminal identifier. A user-programmable line of information sent automati-

cally with every page a fax machine sends; it appears at the top of each page printed by the
receiving unit.

Transmission speed  How fast a fax machine is sending a fax document. This speed
depends upon the modem speed of each unit, the resolution setting, the content of the docu-
ment, the encoding technique and the condition of the phone line (clean, noisy, etc.) Any
change in any one of these five conditions will affect the speed, sometimes significantly.

V

.29 and v.27 ter   A standard set of communication procedures allowing fax machines to

talk to other units using those standards. Specifically, these standards cover fax transmission
at 9600 bps or slower.

V

.34

 An international standard for fax modems   and other modems   with transmission

speeds of up to 28.8 Kbps. The 

V

.34 protocol is sometimes referred to as 

V

.Fast , because it

represented a significant increase in possible transmission speed compared to the transmis-
sion protocol it replaced.

V

.34 bis

 A faster version of the 

V

.34 standard, and sometimes referred to as 

V

.34 Plus or

V

.34 + . The 

V

.34 bis protocol allows transmission at up to 33.6 Kbps, and represents the cur-

rent maximum standard transmission speed possible under ITU-T Group 3. (The term  b i s is
French, and designates the  second version of the protocol.)

White-line skip

 A technique used to speed up fax transmission by bypassing redundant

areas, such as white space.
