`
E
ECM
Error Correction Mode. The ability of your fax
to reduce system and line errors when sending
or receiving from another fax with ECM
capability. ECM is most effective in areas
where the telephone lines are in poor condition
or there is frequent interference on the line. Do
not use ECM if you need to send a document
quickly and you are sure the other party can
read your transmission without it (turning off
ECM also turns off MMR).
Extension
A telephone connected to the fax.
`
F
Fax Only Mode
This option allows you to use your fax only to
receive faxes automatically. If you have a
dedicated fax line, you may want to set this
mode.
Fax/Tel Mode
This option allows you to set the fax 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 fax 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 setting for documents with very small
characters and lines.
`
G
G3, Group 3 fax machine
Defined by CCITT. 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), and Modified Modified Read (MMR).
`
H
Hook
The button that engages and disengages the
telephone line.
`
I
Ink cartridge
The special type of ink cartridge used with
Canon Bubble Jet fax machines. The ink
cartridge for the fax includes the print head
and ink. Use the BX-3 cartridge only.
`
J
Jack
The telephone receptacles on your wall or in
your fax used to connect the fax to the
telephone line, answering machine and
extension phone.
`
M
Manual Dialling
Pressing the individual numeric buttons to dial
a fax number. Also called regular dialling.
Manual Mode
A setting that allows you to answer all
incoming telephone and fax calls. If you hear a
slow beep it indicates an incoming fax
transmission from another machine. Just press
[Start/Copy] to receive the incoming fax.
Manual redialling
When you use Regular dialling, you can redial
a number manually simply by pressing
[Redial/Pause] on the operation panel. The last
number called is the number redialled.
Memory Sending
Scans a document into memory before the fax
dials the numbers and sends it. This method is
faster than Direct Sending and it allows you to
retrieve your original document immediately
after scanning.
`
N
Noise
A term applied to a variety of problems that
impair the operation of telephone lines used for
faxing.
Numeric buttons
The round numbered buttons on the operation
panel marked the same as a standard telephone
keypad. Press them to perform Manual
Dialling. You also use the numeric buttons to
enter numbers and letters when you register
numbers and names, and for entering Coded
Speed Dialling codes with two or more digits.
