* Complies with the 33.6 kbps transmission method for Super G3 facsimiles standardized by the International
Telecommunications Union (ITU-T). This is the speed for when sending an A4 (8-1/2” × 11”) size piece of
paper of around 700 characters at standard image quality (8 × 3.85 chars/mm) in Hi-speed mode (33.6 kbps).
This is the transmission speed for image information only and does not include time for transmission control.
The actual time needed for a transmission depends on the content of the text, type of receiving fax machine,
and telephone line conditions.
