Those cables that consist of twisted copper wire pairs are used. The transmission speed of 10Base-T is 10 Mbps, of 100Base-TX is 100 Mbps, and of 1000Base-T is 1000 Mbps. A network service provided by Microsoft. Active Directory can centrally manage all types of information including servers, clients, printers and other hardware resources, as well as properties and access permissions of users on the network. Software or its file format developed by Adobe Systems Inc. (formerly by Macromedia, Inc.), used to create a content by compiling vector-graphic animations and sounds. The software allows handling interactive contents using keyboard or mouse. The files can be kept relatively compact and accessed from a Web browser with dedicated plug-in software. While normal FTP sites are protected by an account name and password, this type of FTP site can be used by anyone without a password by simply entering anonymous as the account name. The acronym for Authenticated Post Office Protocol. While usual POP does not encrypt the password used for receiving an E-mail, APOP encrypts the password. This authentication method helps enhance the E-mail security. The generic name for the protocol suite developed by Apple Computer for computer networking. A function to obtain an IP address automatically. If one fails to get an IP address via DHCP, the auto IP gets an IP address from the space of "169.254.0.0". The abbreviation for binary digit. The smallest unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or printer. A bit uses only a 0 or a 1 to indicate data. The abbreviation for bitmap. This is a file format for saving image data. (The file extension is ".bmp".) Commonly used on Windows platforms. BMP covers the color depth from monochrome (2 values) to full color (16,777,216 colors). BMP images are not suitable for compressed storage. A Macintosh network technology, automatically detecting a device connected to the network for automatic configuration. Previously called "Rendezvous", and has been changed to "Bonjour" since Mac OS X v10.4. A byte indicates a unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or printer. A byte consists of eight bits. A computer using services provided by servers via the network. A compression method for minimizing the data size using the PDF format, used for digitalizing color documents. Compact PDF allows high compression performance by identifying the text and image regions, and applying the resolution and compression method optimized for each region. The compact PDF method can be selected in this machine when using the scanning function to digitalize documents. The difference in intensity between the light and dark parts of the image (light/dark variation). "Low contrast" indicates an image with little light/dark variation, while "High contrast" an image with large light/dark variation. The acronym for Comma Separated Values, which is one of the formats used for saving database or spreadsheet data as a text file. (The file extension is ".csv".) Data can be shared among different applications by being separated by commas (as the delimiter). An initial setting. The settings selected in advance and enabled when the machine is turned on, or the settings selected in advance and enabled when the function is activated. A device, such as a computer or router, used as a "gateway" to access computers on different LANs. The amount of density of an image. bizhub 423/363/283/223 13-6

Description
10Base-T/
100Base-TX/
1000Base-T
A set of specifications under the Ethernet standards. Those cables that con-
sist of twisted copper wire pairs are used. The transmission speed of

(light/dark variation). "Low contrast" indicates an image with little light/dark
variation, while "High contrast" an image with large light/dark variation.

chine is turned on, or the settings selected in advance and enabled when the
function is activated.
Default Gateway
A device, such as a computer or router, used as a "gateway" to access com-
puters on different LANs.
Density
The amount of density of an image.
