Plain-paper digital Fax/Copier/Printer/Scanner
User Manual
As an Energy Star® partner, Muratec has determined that this product
meets the Energy Star® guidelines for energy efficiency.
Super G3 is an extension of Group 3 fax technology standards, allowing
the use of high-speed ITU-T V.34 modems for 33.6 Kbps transmission and
high-speed protocols for rapid handshaking.
JBIG — Joint Bi-level Image experts Group, the new ITU-T standard
image data compression method. As JBIG compresses the data more
efficiently than MMR, it is especially effective when transmitting halftone
(grayscale) image document.
QuadAccess
QuadAccess is a more powerful version of what already is a pretty power-
ful feature, called dual access. While a fax with normal dual access allows
you to do two things at once, QuadAccess allows you to do four operations
at once. For example, even if the machine is (1) printing a copy, (2) trans-
mitting from memory and (3) scanning documents for a different memory
transmission, you can still (4) program the machine.
