storage.

computer or printer.
A byte consists of eight bits.
Compact PDF
A compression method for minimizing the data size using the PDF for-
mat, used for digitalizing color documents. Compact PDF allows high
compression performance by identifying the text and image regions,
and applying the resolution and compression method optimized for
each region. The compact PDF method can be selected in this ma-
chine when using the scanning function to digitalize documents.
Contrast
The difference in intensity between the light and dark parts of the im-

manage IP addresses of the DHCP clients enables you to construct a
network without IP address conflicts or other troubles.
Dither
A method of presenting the quasi-shading of gray using black and
white colors. This method is easier to process than error diffusion, but
may stir some unevenness on the image.
