V.34 Technology *

The S series supports JBIG fax compressione and Super G3 standard at V.34 speed.
The V.34 technology allows MecFax transmissions to reach the speed of 33.6 Kbps, roughly 4 seconds per page. **

Recent advancements in fax technology have resulted in a renewed interest in fax machines for the business environment. One such advancement is the introduction of the V.34 fax standard, which helps businesses to increase productivity and to reduce costs.

Dubbed 'V.Fast', the V.34 fax standard is heralded as an important development in fax technology. Fax devices supporting the V.34 protocol can also grant more reliable fax transmissions, requiring fewer resends, under a wider range of line conditions than those supporting older fax standards such as V.17 and 9.6 kbps.

These improved fax transmissions are a result of the more sophisticated modulation/demodulation scheme and the ECM protocol. These improvements allows to save on costs from reduced fax phone bills, especially for long distance calls.
