can quickly call the last number dialled by

pressing [REDIAL].

information. You can also reduce the size of

large incoming documents using the RX

REDUCTION option.

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.

Rotary pulse

A telephone dialling system where a dial is

rotated to send pulses to the telephone

switching system. When you pulse dial, you

adjustments.
