See also One-touch speed dialing, Coded speed dialing, and Group dialing. Automatic image reduction The MultiPASS can print the date, time, name or company name, and a fax/telephone number at the top of the faxes it receives. To prevent this information from crowding the faxed image on the page and possibly lengthening the fax, the MultiPASS automatically reduces the size of the image on the page. Automatic redialing When the receiving fax machine is busy, the MultiPASS waits a specified time and then automatically redials the number. You define the number of times the unit redials and the length of time between redialings. sB Bi-directional parallel interface port An interface connection that is capable of both sending and receiving. For example, when you print or send a fax from your PC, data goes from your PC to the MultiPASS; when you scan or receive a fax into your PC, data goes from the MultiPASS to your PC. Glossary G-1
