By dormant they mean that the Black Hole is not currently 'eating' anything substantial enough to emit the x-ray's and other radiation that we see when matter is being actively consumed by the black hole.

How does a black hole "digest" the mass it consumes? Where does it go?
Twighlight Zone or Worm Hole into time?
Where do the contents of Black Holes immerge?
Is there a God? Are black holes just the end of God's straw?
I have a headache.
