ADF (Automatic Document Feeder):
A device which feeds the pages of a multipage document one at a time, in the
order that you arranged the pages in the stack.
Batch Numbering (Page Count):
This is a way of numbering pages that allows you to check whether you received
all pages, and if not, which ones are missing. For example, if you receive two
pages with p1/3 printed on one and p2/3 on the other, you have just received a
three-page document but page 3 didn’t make it.
BPS (Bits Per Second):
This is the data communication rate. In G3 mode, your fax terminal digitizes
documents, transforming them into ’bits’ - binary digits - (an average page will
produce about 200,000 of them), and then sends them out at a top speed of
9,600 to 14,400 bps, depending on the model.
Broadcasting:
In G3 fax communication terminology, broadcasting is the transmission of a
document to more than one address in sequence, not simultaneously.
Communication:
Transmission or reception.
Copy:
When used as a noun, this refers to a printout, either in copy mode or receive
mode
Country Code:
In international dialing, this is the code that directs the call to the country where
the terminal that you wish to send to is located.
CSI:
Called Subscriber Identification.

Default Setting:
See "Factory Setting".
Dial Pulses:
These are dialing signals that your terminal sends out if it uses pulse dialing (
☞
page 208).
Document:
This is the original page or set of pages that you wish to send.
DPI (Dots Per Inch), or l/mm (Lines Per Millimeter):
This is the unit of resolution. The scanner scans your document according to the
selected resolution. An 8-1/2" x 11" page is broken down into about 1,728,000
dots if standard resolution is used (Digital compression techniques for G3
convert these into about 200,000 bits).
