Abstract

PURPOSE:To send a received document to a final destination without reading it again by providing a document number input circuit designating the received document to be sent and an output page input circuit designating pages and outputting the received document by designated pages only. CONSTITUTION:The equipment is provided with an original storage circuit 5 storing a transmission document and a reception document, a transmission reception document management circuit 3 managing a stored transmission and reception document, a document number addition circuit 4 adding a document number to the received document, a destination input circuit 8 inputting the final destination, a document number input circuit 9 designating the document number of the received document to be sent and an output page input circuit 10 designating an output page of the received document. In the case of commanding a print output, the output page input circuit 10 outputs only the page informed and designated to the original storage circuit 5, the original storage circuit 5 reads a data from a designated page address and outputs the data to a print circuit 6. Thus, in the case of distributing the data to the final destination, the document is able to be sent without being read again as a transmission document.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a facsimile device, and more particularly to a facsimile device that transmits received and stored documents to other destinations.

[Conventional technology]

When a conventional facsimile machine wants to send a document that it has received and stored to another destination, it prints out all the received documents, looks at the output document, reads the final destination, and then sends the document again. and was sent to the final destination.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional facsimile machine has the disadvantage that all received and stored documents are printed out, and therefore, when the document is to be delivered to the final destination, the document must be reread as a transmission document.

Also, if it is determined that the received document does not need to be sent anywhere, only the page that shows the final delivery destination is required, and the remaining pages are not used even if they are printed out, wasting recording paper and recording operation time. There was a drawback.

[Means to solve the problem]

The facsimile apparatus of the present invention includes a document storage circuit that stores transmitted documents and received documents, a transmitted/received document management circuit that manages the stored transmitted and received documents, and a document number addition circuit that adds a document number to the received document. , a destination input circuit for inputting the final distribution destination, a document number input circuit for specifying the document number of the received document to be transmitted, and an output page input circuit for specifying the output page of the received document.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram of one embodiment of the present invention.

When reception is started, a control signal is input from the modem 1 to the transmission/reception control circuit 2 and notified to the control circuit 7. Control circuit 7
Instructs the transmitted/received document management circuit 3 to generate a document number, and also instructs the document storage circuit 5 to specify a storage address.

The transmission/reception document management circuit 3 sets the generated reception number in the document number addition circuit 4 and waits for data to be sent from the transmission/reception control circuit 2.

When data is sent from the other device, it is sent via modem 1.
The transmission/reception control circuit 2 sends data to the original storage circuit 5,
The document number is also input from the document number addition circuit 4 to the original storage circuit 5, the data and the document number are combined, and the combined data is stored at the storage address of the original storage circuit 5 specified by the control circuit 7.

The output page input circuit 10 inputs the page to be printed out to the control circuit 7 before communication, and when instructing the printout, the document storage circuit 5 is notified so that only the designated page is outputted.

When the transmission/reception control circuit 2 finishes receiving data with the partner device, it notifies the control circuit 7. The control circuit 7 instructs the document storage circuit 5 to specify the address of the output page, and also activates the print circuit 6.

The original storage circuit 5 reads data from the designated page address and outputs the data to the print circuit 6. The output page specifies the first page where the final delivery destination is written. Of course, it is also possible to specify the final distribution destination on any page by agreement.

The operator reads the final delivery destination and document number from the output document, inputs the final delivery destination into the destination input circuit 8, and inputs the document number into the document number input circuit 9.

The control circuit 7 notifies the transmission/reception control circuit 2 of the final delivery destination, makes a call to the other party's machine, and notifies the transmission/reception document management circuit 3 of the document number.

The sending/receiving document management circuit 3 selects a document stored in the document storage circuit 5 based on the document number, and sends the document to the sending/receiving control circuit 2.
Send to. The transmission/reception control circuit 2 communicates with the other party's device and sends data.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention includes a sent/received document management circuit for managing accumulated sent and received documents, a document number adding circuit for adding a document number to a received document, and a destination input circuit for inputting a final delivery destination. , has a document number input circuit that specifies the received document to be sent, and an output page input circuit that specifies which page of the received document is to be output, and by outputting only the specified page of the received document, the document number can be , the final delivery destination is known and the received document can be sent to the final delivery destination without having to read it again.
