DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document reading canceling operation in a facsimile apparatus.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a conventional apparatus disclosed in, for example, JP-A-2-107051. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a control unit, 2 denotes an operation unit, 3 denotes a reading unit and its driving. The device 4 is a recording unit and its driving device, and 5 is a network control unit.

Next, the operation will be described. The original set in the reading unit is conveyed and read as image data by a transmission instruction from the operation unit 2 by an operator. The read image data is encoded and sent to the partner facsimile by the network control unit 5. When the operator cancels for some reason while reading the document, the operator presses the cancel key using the operation unit 2. As a result, the reading unit and its driving device 3 and the network control unit 5 enter a canceling operation. The reading unit and its driving device 3 stop the transport operation for reading the original, and perform the discharge operation of the original, or terminate the cancel operation in a state where the transport operation is stopped. The network control unit 5 starts the line disconnection operation and ends the communication.

[0004]

Since the conventional facsimile apparatus is configured as described above, the original document is further damaged by the discharge operation, such as when a document jam (paper jam) is caused to be canceled. May expand. Further, in the case of canceling by mistake for the destination, there is a problem that the operator has to manually remove the original when the conveyance is stopped.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and protects a document at the time of cancellation.
It is an object of the present invention to obtain a facsimile apparatus capable of easily performing a removing operation.

[0006]

According to the present invention, there is provided a facsimile apparatus comprising: a reading control section for reading a document;
Cancel key accepting unit that accepts cancel key press
And reading to detect whether the document is being read
Medium detection unit and the document discharge operation is being executed or stopped.
And a discharge detector that detects whether
The reading control unit performs the reading of the original by the reading control unit.
During the removal, the cancellation key reception
Key is pressed, the reading control unit reads
A reading stop instruction is issued to stop reading,
After reading is stopped, the cancel key reception unit
When the press of the cancel key is accepted, the ejection detection unit
To detect the discharging operation.
A discharge execution instruction is issued to the discharge control unit to execute the discharge operation.
And executing the discharging operation by the discharging control unit.
During the cancellation of the cancel key
When the press is accepted, the discharge control unit stops discharging.
Control means for issuing an instruction to stop the discharging operation .

[0007]

In the present invention, the discharge detecting section detects whether the document is being discharged or stopped, and the discharge control section stops or executes the discharge of the document according to the detection result.

[0008]

[Embodiment 1] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a control unit, 3 denotes a reading control unit for reading a document, 6 denotes a cancel key receiving unit for receiving cancellation, and 7 denotes a reading for detecting whether or not the document is being read. Chuken out portion Ri, 8 discharge detection unit that detects whether a stopped or document discharge operation is being performed, and 9 is a discharge control unit for discharging / stopping of the document.

Next, the operation will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. While the document is being read by the reading control unit 3 (S1), when the cancel key receiving unit 6 receives the pressing of the cancel key by the operator, the control unit 1
Sends a reading stop instruction to the reading control unit 3 and stops reading (S2, S3).

After the reading is stopped, when the cancel key is pressed again by the operator, the control unit 1
, A discharge operation is detected (S4). If discharge is not being performed, a discharge execution instruction is issued to the discharge control unit 9 to execute the discharge operation (S5).

When the operator presses the cancel key again during the discharge operation, the control unit 1 detects that the discharge is being performed by the discharge detection unit 8 (S4), and the control unit 9 controls the discharge.
, A discharge stop instruction is issued to stop the discharge operation (S
6).

[0012]

As described above, according to the present invention, the discharge state is detected by the discharge detection unit, and the cancel operation is performed according to the state. Can be stopped. Also,
There is an effect that labor for removing the original can be saved.
