A quick introduction to fax
What’s a fax document?
Simply put, a fax document is anything a fax user wants to fax to someone else.
It can be just one page or as many pages as you need. It can be text, a drawing or
even a photograph.
What’s a fax number?
Because your fax operates on standard phone lines, a fax number is just a regular
phone number. And, because your fax is also a high-quality, full-featured telephone,
your fax number can even be your regular phone number.
What are resolution and grayscale?
Just as cars are measured by engine size, fax machines are measured by resolution
and grayscale.
Resolution refers to the sharpness of a fax transmission. It’s expressed in lines per
inch (lpi). There are three specific levels of resolution:
• Normal (203 horizontal
×
98 vertical lpi)
• Fine (203
×
196 lpi)
• Superfine (203
×
392 lpi).
Grayscale levels — refers to the many shades of gray your fax machine sees on a
document it’s sending. It’s likely most of your fax documents will be dark text on
white paper. However, when you want to send photographs and other shaded items,
you can set your fax machine to transmit in 64-scale grayscale.
So why not set your fax machine to use superfine or grayscale for
all transmissions?
Setting your fax machine for superfine resolution and grayscale mode makes your
machine send more information, making transmissions last longer and driving up
your phone bills on long-distance calls. You’ll find that we’ve made it easy for you to
set your fax machine for the most efficient and truest transmission for the types of
documents you send!
