LDAP
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a networking protocol for 
querying and modifying directory services running over TCP/IP.
LED
A Light-Emitting Diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that indicates the status 
of a machine.
MAC address
Media Access Control (MAC) address is a unique identifier associated with a 
network adapter. MAC address is a unique 48-bit identifier usually written as 12 
hexadecimal characters grouped in pairs (e. g., 00-00-0c-34-11-4e). This address 
is usually hard-coded into a Network Interface Card (NIC) by its manufacturer, 
and used as an aid for routers trying to locate machines on large networks.
MFP
Multi Function Peripheral (MFP) is an office machine that includes the following 
functionality in one physical body, so as to have a printer, a copier, a fax, a 
scanner and etc.
MH
Modified Huffman (MH) is a compression method for decreasing the amount of 
data that needs to be transmitted between the fax machines to transfer the 
image recommended by ITU-T T.4. MH is a codebook-based run-length 
encoding scheme optimized to efficiently compress white space. As most faxes 
consist mostly of white space, this minimizes the transmission time of most 
faxes. 
MMR
Modified Modified READ (MMR) is a compression method recommended by ITU-
T T.6.
Modem
A device that modulates a carrier signal to encode digital information, and also 
demodulates such a carrier signal to decode transmitted information.
MR
Modified Read (MR) is a compression method recommended by ITU-T T.4. MR 
encodes the first scanned line using MH. The next line is compared to the first, 
the differences determined, and then the differences are encoded and 
transmitted.
