Abstract

PURPOSE:To inform the transmission of an original in error from a destination by sending a picture data of an OMR(optical mark reader) read by a read means together with the original to the destination designated by the sheet. CONSTITUTION:When an OMR(optical mark reader) 4 is used to send an original 5, the destination and name or the like at the sender side are described on the sheet 4. When the sheet 4 is set to a read section 12 of a sender side facsimile equipment 1 together with the original 5, the read section 12 inputs a data reading the sheet 4 into a picture memory 14. Then a main control section 11 reads the data of the sheet 4 to send it to a line 3 together with a read data of the original 5. Thus, a receiver side facsimile equipment 2 receives the content of the sheet 4 and prints it out on recording paper. Then since the receiver side receives the sheet 4 itself as the original, it is able to be informed to the sender that an original is sent in mistake based on the destination of the sender described on the sheet 4.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a facsimile device that can perform facsimile communication using an OMR sheet.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, when a facsimile machine is used to send a document using an OMR sheet, errors in writing on the Moeki OMR sheet or OM
Due to an error in reading the R sheet, etc., the original may be sent to the wrong destination. Even in such a case, if there is no abnormality during transmission, the sending facsimile ends normally, and the sending side does not notice the mistake, which is an inconvenience. Further, since the receiving side does not know where the original was sent by mistake, it tends to remain as is. As a result, there was an inconvenience in that the original document was not delivered to the correct destination no matter how long it took.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, when sending a document using a facsimile device using an OMR sheet, if the document is sent to the wrong destination due to a typo in the OMR sheet or a mistake in reading the OMR sheet, The sender was not aware of this, and the receiver did not know where the document came from, so the sender was unable to resend it to the correct destination, resulting in the inconvenience that the document would never arrive at the correct destination. . Therefore, an object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and by using an OMR sheet to notify the sender of a document sent from a sending facsimile machine to a receiving facsimile machine, it is possible to prevent documents from being sent by mistake. It is an object of the present invention to provide a facsimile device that can easily notify the sender of the received information.

[Structure of the Invention] (Means for Solving and Overcoming the Problems) The present invention provides a facsimile machine having a function of causing a reading unit to read an OMR sheet together with a document, and transmitting the document according to the read contents of the OMR sheet. ,
The apparatus is configured to include a transmission control means for transmitting the image data of the OMR sheet read by the reading means to the destination designated by the OMR sheet together with the original.

(Function) In the facsimile apparatus of the present invention, the transmission control means transmits the image data of the OMR sheet read by the reading means to the OMR sheet.
Send it together with the original to the destination specified on the MR sheet. Thereby, the receiving side can easily identify the sender using the received OMR sheet.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1st
The figure is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a facsimile apparatus of the present invention. 1 is a sending facsimile device, 2 is a receiving facsimile device, 3 is a telephone line, 4 is an OMR sheet, 5 is a transmission original, 11 is a main control unit that performs transmission control etc. using the OMR sheet, 12 is an OMR sheet 4 and transmission Manuscript 5
13 is a transmitting/receiving unit for transmitting and receiving image data, and 14 is an image memory for temporarily storing the read image data.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a detailed example of the OMR sheet 4 shown in FIG. 1. Reference numeral 41 is a local information area in which the destination, name, etc. of the sending side is entered, and 42 is an area for giving an instruction to prohibit the operation of sending the OMR sheet as image data to the sending destination.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained. First, when transmitting the original 5 using the OMR sheet 4, the OMR sheet 4
Fill in the necessary information such as the address, and enter your own station information area vA.
41, enter the destination, name, etc. of your own station, that is, the sending side.

Further, when this OMR sheet 4 is sent as a document to the receiving side, nothing is written in the area 42, and when not sent, this area 42 is filled in black. In this way, when the OMR sheet 4 is placed on top and together with the transmission original 5 into the original insertion slot of the reading unit 12 of the sending facsimile machine 1, the reading unit 12 reads this OMR sheet 4, and the main control unit 11 The operation shown in the flowchart of FIG. 3 is performed. That is, if the document read by the reading unit 12 in step 301 is a document other than an OMR sheet, the process proceeds to step 306 in which normal transmission processing is performed. If it is OMR sheet 4, the process advances to step 302. In step 302, after inputting the data read from the OMR sheet 4 into both memories 14 and performing the settings specified in this OMR sheet,
In step 303, it is detected whether or not the area 42 is painted black, and it is determined whether or not this OMR sheet 4 is to be transmitted as a document. If it is to be transmitted, the process proceeds to step 304.
If not, the process advances to step 305. Step 30
In Step 4, all the read data of the OMR sheet 4 from the image memo January 4 is read out and sent to the line 3 via the transmitter/receiver 13, and then in step 305, the transmitted original 5 is sent to the reader 12.
and sends it out onto the line 3 via the transmitting/receiving section 13.

Therefore, when the sending side instructs to send the OMR sheet 4 as a document, the receiving facsimile machine 2
The contents of the R sheet 4 are received, and the contents are printed on recording paper and output.

According to this embodiment, even if a document is sent to a wrong destination using the OMR sheet 4, the receiving side also receives the OMR sheet 4 itself as a document, so that the information is not written in the local information area 41 of the OMR sheet 4. You can notify the sender that a document was sent by mistake from the sender's address. As a result, the sending side realizes that the original 5 has been sent in error, and can immediately resend the original 5 to the correct destination.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the facsimile apparatus of the present invention,
The OMR sheet is sent to the receiving side along with the original so that the receiving side is informed of the source of the original, so if the original is sent by mistake, the receiving side will be able to It has the effect of easily informing the sender.
