The Public-Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is the network of 

the world's public circuit-switched telephone networks which, on 

industrial premises, is usually routed through the switchboard.

The sharpness of an image, measured in Dots Per Inch (DPI). The 

higher the dpi, the greater the resolution.

Server Message Block (SMB) is a network protocol mainly applied to 

share files, printers, serial ports, and miscellaneous communications 

between nodes on a network. It also provides an authenticated Inter-

process communication mechanism.

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the standard for e-mail 

transmissions across the Internet. SMTP is a relatively simple, text-

based protocol, where one or more recipients of a message are 

specified, and then the message text is transferred. It is a client-

server protocol, where the client transmits an email message to the 

server.

The subnet mask is used in conjunction with the network address to 

determine which part of the address is the network address and 

which part is the host address.

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol 

(IP); the set of communications protocols that implement the protocol 

stack on which the Internet and most commercial networks run.

Transmission Confirmation Report (TCR) provides details of each 

transmission such as job status, transmission result and number of 

pages sent. This report can be set to print after each job or only after 

failed transmissions.

Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) is a variable-resolution bitmapped 

image format. TIFF describes image data that typically come from 

scanners. TIFF images make use of tags, keywords defining the 

characteristics of the image that is included in the file. This flexible 

and platform-independent format can be used for pictures that have 

been made by various image processing applications.

A kind of bottle within a machine like printer which contains toner. 

Toner is a powder used in laser printers and photocopiers, which 

forms the text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be melted 

by the heat of the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.

An industry standard for scanners and software. By using a TWAIN-

compliant scanner with a TWAIN-compliant program, a scan can be 

initiated from within the program.; an image capture API for Microsoft 

Windows and Apple Macintosh operating systems.

Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) is a standard way to access 

network shares in Window NT and other Microsoft products. The 

format of a UNC path is: \\<servername>\<sharename>\<Additional 

directory>

Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents 

and resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates 

what protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the 

domain name where the resource is located.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a standard that was developed by the 

USB Implementers Forum, Inc., to connect computers and 

peripherals. Unlike the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently 

connect a single computer USB port to multiple peripherals.

A watermark is a recognizable image or pattern in paper that 

appears lighter when viewed by transmitted light. Watermarks were 

first introduced in Bologna, Italy in 1282; they have been used by 

papermakers to identify their product, and also on postage stamps, 

currency, and other government documents to discourage 

counterfeiting.

Windows Imaging Architecture (WIA) is an imaging architecture that 

is originally introduced in Windows Me and Windows XP. A scan can 

be initiated from within these operating systems by using a WIA-

compliant scanner.
