Glossary
Address Book
The Address Book is a convenient directory that stores contact Phone Numbers
and Email Addresses for easy retrieval at a future time.
Address Book Dialing
A dialer that enables you to dial an entire Telephone Number/Email Address by
pressing one key.
ADF
The mechanism that delivers a stack of document pages to the scanner one page at
(Automatic Document Feeder)
a time.
CD-ROM
CD-ROM media is read-only media that holds about 650 MB of data. It’s generally
accepted as the easiest way to distribute software. CD-ROM drives can also read
audio CDs even though they are in a different format than standard CD-ROM media.
DDS
The 
Document Distribution System automatically distributes received data (scanner
(Document Distribution
data, data received via FAX, and data received via Internet Fax) to specified recipients
System)
via a predefined delivery mechanism. The system administrator uses the system to
specify the delivery mechanisms and the recipients.
Density
Signifies the scanning sensitivity in terms of lightness and darkness of your original
pages. The degree of colour or darkness of an image or photograph.
Dept. Code
This operation requires the user to input a preset number of digits (Department
(Department Code)
Code) before being given access to a function of the machine such as transmission
for example. The Department Name of selected Department Code is printed on the
Header of each page sent, Cover Sheet, Comm. Journal and Individual Transmission
Journal.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - a standard method for assigning IP addresses
automatically to the devices on a TCP/IP network. As a new device connects, the
DHCP server assigns an IP address from a list of available addresses. The device
retains this IP address for the duration of the session - once the device disconnects
the IP address becomes available for use again.
Disk Drive
A peripheral storage device that holds, spins, reads and writes magnetic or optical
disks. It may be a receptacle for disk cartridges, disk packs or floppy disks, or it may
contain non-removable disk platters like most hard disks.
dpi
Abbreviation of 
dots per inch, which indicates the resolution of images. The more
dots per inch, the higher the resolution. A common resolution for laser printers is
600 dots per inch. This means 600 dots across and 600 dots down, so there are
360,000 dots per square inch.
Drum
Along with the laser, this is one of the basic components of a laser printer. A light-
sensitive drum on which the image is generated by the laser beam as the pattern of
an electric charge. The toner particles adhere to this pattern after the drum has
brushed against the developing roller. (a.k.a. OPC Drum)
Fax Board
In a multi-functional device, this is a Fax capability built onto a printed circuit board
which can send and receive facsimiles. The multi-functional device is normally able
to scan a document and transmit it over a phone line to another fax machine. Also, it
can receive faxes from other machines and print them out.
FTP
Short for 
File Transfer Protocol, the protocol for exchanging files over the Internet.
FTP works in the same way as HTTP for transferring Web pages from a server to a
user’s browser and SMTP for transferring electronic mail across the Internet in that,
like these technologies, FTP uses the Internet’s TCP/IP protocols to enable data
transfer.
FTP is most commonly used to download a file from a server using the Internet or to
upload a file to a server (e.g., uploading a Web page file to a server).
G3
Refers to the standards and transmission capabilities of the current generation of
(Group 3)
facsimile machines.
