■Receiving in Memory If You Run Out of Paper or Toner
If you run out of paper or toner while you are receiving a document, the machine continues 
to receive by storing the remainder of the document into the machine’s memory, so you can 
print it out after you refill the paper cassette or replace the toner cartridge. A memory 
backup function also safeguards the contents of the memory for approximately 12 hours 
after a power failure.
■Delayed Sending
Scan a document into memory, and set the machine to send the document at a later time. 
This enables you to take advantage of holiday or late night telephone rates.
■Dual Access
Even while you are sending or receiving a document, you can continue to use the machine 
to register information or record documents into memory.
■Easy to Use
A larger LCD display and operation panel with larger keys makes the machine easier to use.

■JBIG, Improved Image Data Compression
JBIG (Joint Bi-Level Image Experts Group) is a new ITU-T standard image data 
compression method. JBIG’s compression method allows data to be compressed more 
efficiently* than MMR (Modified Modified Read), a conventional compression method. JBIG 
is especially effective when transmitting halftone image documents. The smaller data size 
requires less transmission time, and JBIG saves you time and money.
* The actual compression ratio may vary with different images.
