1.1Introduction
Thank you for c hoosing the Di18 1f and showing c onfidence in our pro duct.
This machine has a modern design and fulfils today’s requirements of a
fax machine. It combines advanced technology with a contemporary
appearance.
The machine is authorised for use in the public telephone network and is
compatible to other fax machines of the communication standard 3.
The Di181f was manufactured to the same high quality standards as is
common for all other precision instruments made by Minolta.
This manual will assist you in becoming familiar with the machine. It
contains all the necessary information for the start-up, its functions and
the replacement of the consumables.
Please, always keep this manual to hand when using the machine.
1.2How Does a Fax Machine Work?
A fax machine can be connected to a normal telephone system without
taking any special precautions, just like a normal telephone set. The
function of a fax machine is quite similar to that of a telephone.
The way a fax machine works is simple: Documents that are to be
transmitted are at first scanned. The machine does not recognise the
letters but reads the picture, dot by dot, and marks each dot as black or
white. That is why you can not only transmit texts but also pictures and
photos. The information is then digitised and compressed so that the fax
machine can send it quickly over the telephone line to another fax
machine which reverses the process, reading and marking each dot as
black or white on a sheet of paper.
When you are "cal led" b y a fax mach ine, y our tele phone ring s as normal.
Therefore you cannot know whether your are receiving a fax call or a
telephone call before picking up the receiver. Those sounds are the so
called "hand shaking " and function as an introdu ction sequence before the
actual transmissio n, just as i nterlocuto rs - often - introduce them selves at
the beginning of a telephone call. In the introductory sequence the
technical features of both machines are matched to make sure the
transmission and the reception are conducted to a high standard.
With your Di181f you do not need to listen to the introductory sequence.
How to program the machine accordingly will be explained later in this
manual. Furthermore you will als o find infor mation abou t the settin gs th at

come with the machine, that have to be made when instal-ling, or the
settings that can be made at a later stage. Most of the features of the fax
machine work independently, so that you can program only the settings
you need for the moment and ignore all others.
By the way, the word "fax" is a combination of the Latin "facere" (to make)
and "simile" (similar) describing the process of making a copy which is
similar to the original. This artificial word "fax" has nowadays become
widely accepted i n everyday lang uage, replaci ng the older term facsimile.
A copy is therefore to be made similar to the original. Fax machines are
also called facsimile machines.
Now, enjoy your new fax machine.

98/482/EC for pan-European single terminal connection to the public
switched telephone network (PSTN). However, due to differences
between the individ ual PSTNs provided in differe nt countries, the approval
does not, or itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful
operation on every PSTN network termination point.
In cases of problems, you should contact your equipment supplier in the
first instance.
