Customizable to fit the way you work
No matter how you work, you can tailor your F-160 to fit. Youll send faxes with speed, security and ease with the F-160s standard, customizable features, including:
QUICK MEMORY TRANSMISSION

BATCH TRANSMISSIONS

PAGE NUMBERING AND CONFIRMATION STAMP
Save time and money by taking advantage of the F-160's batch transmission feature. If you have multiple documents to send to one person, store those documents in the F-160's memory throughout the day, using a batch box. At the end of the day, press a button to fax those batch box documents. Simple and reliable.

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME

Security, speed, power. That's what the F-160's Quick Memory transmission gives you. Your documents scan into memory at a blazing 1.7-seconds per page, while at the same time the machine begins dialing, all the while continuing to scan the remaining pages of your document. Hear the call, see your pages scanned, and rely on the powerful, spacious memory to do the rest.

SOFT KEYS

Never worry about the time change again. With the F-160's DST feature activated, it automatically adjusts for Daylight Savings Time and standard time. Uninterrupted, worry-free work for you. Just a day at the office for the F-160.

COPY & FAX

Reliability with every fax. Each time you fax a multi-page document, send it knowing that each page will be read in the correct order. The F-160's page numbering feature tags every page with a number, so the recipient knows exactly how many pages are supposed to be received and in what order. And with the confirmation stamp activated, each page you quick-scan for memory transmission will be marked to let you know the F-160 has read it and will send it. Muratec innovation. Your advantage.
MULTI-LANGUAGE DISPLAYS AND REPORTS
Use these "shortcut keys" to save time throughout the day. The F-160s Soft Keys let you turn functions on and off with the press of a button. The best part is that you decide which functions should be programmed into your Soft Keys. Customize these keys to match your office demands.

Spend less time walking to the copy machine and more time using your F-160 as a convenience copier with the Copy & Fax feature. Each time you quick-scan a document to send a fax, the F-160 is smart enough to ask if you want to make a copy of it, right at the fax machine. With the click of a button, the F-160 makes a copy while at the same time it faxes your document. And because of Muratec's FaxRISC and QuadAccess, the machine won't slow down. Convenient, smart and powerful.
Truly customizable for your office's efficiency. If your office is multinational, the F-160 can be, too. Its LCD "speaks" 4 different languages, letting your office operate at optimum efficiency. Choose from English, French, Spanish and German LCD displays.

DEPARTMENT CODES

Track fax usage throughout your office. With the department code feature, each department enters its own code before long-distance calls can be made. It makes tracking fax usage easy and efficient.
Scaleable to match your office needs

MEMORY

More Features

SECOND LINE

What it is Your machine's memory is its brain capacity. The more memory you put into your machine, the bigger its brain will be to help you work. Why you need it Quite simply, the Expanded Standard more memory your machine has, Memory Memory the more it can remember. Up to 1,260 pages can be stored into the F-160's memory for delayed transmissions, batch faxing and more. With increased memory, the F-160 can keep pace with even your most demanding workload.

LASER PRINTER

Add a second phone line to your F-160 and get all the benefits of two fax machines: Dedicate one line to sending faxes and one line to receiving faxes. Or set up both lines to send and receive simultaneously. Twice the work packed into one mighty machine.

PAGE COUNTER

Track your printing and the incoming fax volume in your office with the addition of a page counter.
With the addition of the WP300, your F-160 becomes an 8-page-per-minute, 600 x 600 dpi laser printer. Save space with one machine, save time and shorten your walk to the shared office printer.

NETWORK LASER PRINTER

CUSTOM FAX CABINET
Built to suit the F-160 and your office, use the cabinet to store extra paper, phone books and additional supplies.
Just add an Axis 540+ print server or other compatible print server to the WP-300 and the F-160 becomes a networked laser printer, accessible to an entire office workgroup running Windows.

PC SCANNER AND FAX

Your F-160 is much more than just a stand-alone fax. With an optional serial interface, you can turn your fax machine into a scanner and fax for a single PC or your entire network. Scan images into your computer, send faxes directly from your PC without printing out copies first, or even receive faxes directly into your computer. Take advantage of the F-160's multifunctional capabilities.

TELEPHONE HANDSET

Use your fax machine as both a phone and a fax when you add a handset.

See the Speed

33.6 + JBIG The Muratec F-160 combines its blazing 33.6 Kbps modem with JBIG, a compression method designed to make your faxes transmit even faster than with traditional compression schemes. 33.6 + JBIG = 2.8 seconds per page 1.7-SECOND QUICK SCAN Scan your document for memory transmission in less than 2 seconds per page. 8-PAGE-PER-MINUTE PRINTING Ideal as a high-volume fax and a networkable printer, the Muratec F-160 powers out eight laser-printed pages per minute, for more faxes, more copies, more printouts and more productivity throughout your workday. QuadAccess No matter what you're doing, with the F-160, you can do it faster. That's because the F-160 is equipped with Muratec's QuadAccess, a technology that allows you to do four things or more at once. Just try it: send a fax, scan a document for memory transmission, print a report and program the machine all at the same time. FaxRISC The strength behind the machine's performance, FaxRISC is Muratecs advanced, 32-bit processor that powers the F-160. No matter what function you choose on the F-160 scanning, laser printing or fax transmissions with Muratec's FaxRISC, the F-160 always operates at peak levels.
Experience the reliability
INDUSTRY RECOMMENDATIONS The F-160 joins a Muratec family of industry-recommended fax machines. In fact, Muratecs current product line boasts more awards and industry recognition than any other. With such a reputation, you can be assured consistency, quality and performance. MURATEC ImageLSI ImageLSI technology builds Muratec's more than 25 years of image handling experience into a custom LSI (largescale integrated circuit). The result is better image quality in a variety of demanding applications, including improved text characteristics in normal and fine fax resolutions. Muratec's ImageLSI image engine performs a pixel-by-pixel image analysis of faxed and copied pages. It features adaptive image processing, providing better results on pages with mixed text, line art and grayscale images. The ImageLSI is also used in the F-160's high-speed scanning, providing 1.7-second scan speed for letter-sized images. SPEED + SAVINGS

Enjoy the savings

All of Muratecs state-of-the-art technology adds up to savings for you. Heres how: 33.6 VS. 14.4 KBPS The combination of high-speed 33.6 Kbps transmission, fast modem handshaking and JBIG compression cuts your phone bills significantly compared to using a standard 14.4 Kbps modem. A document that takes 6 seconds per page with a 14.4 Kbps modem takes just 2.8 seconds using the F-160. Faxing from the F-160 can save even more when you are sending photographs and other complicated images. Heres why: JBIG is an advanced compression scheme that takes your document, squeezes it into a very small data "package" and transmits it to the fax youre calling. The remote fax machine unwraps the package and delivers it in its full-sized form, allowing your image to be printed accurately. Because your fax machine sends and receives a smaller data package when its equipped with JBIG, the result is shorter transmission time, which saves money on long-distance calls. JBIG compression can result in dramatic improvement in transmission times when you are sending halftone images like photographs. A halftone image that requires two minutes or more to send with a standard fax machine can be sent in less than 20 seconds with the F-160 and JBIG.
