GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF A FACSIMILE
Either way, we believe that facsimiles will be transformed from being stan-
dalone facsimile machines, and will enter the market as facsimiles to be
connected to LANs and the Internet, as facsimiles for connection to net-
work systems. For this reason, conventional knowledge of telephone lines
and facsimiles will not be sufficient for handling these products. Improv-
ing and acquiring knowledge of LAN technology, Internet technology and
LAN-related networks will prove to be all the more important from now
on.
