Abstract

PURPOSE:To print out required number of copies of required pages when the operator needs a document by retrieving a memory reception document and printing it out. CONSTITUTION:Document information 1 received from an opposite party is stored in a memory 2 together with information such as an opposite party and a document number. The stored document information 1 is retrieved by a reception document retrieval section 3. The operator designates printout, delete or transmission operation 4 to the retrieved reception document by an operation control section 5. In the case of printout, the operator designates a page to be printed out and number of sheets by the operation 4 and a recording control section 6 outputs a designated document. In the case of delete, the deleted page is designated by the operation 4 and a memory control section 7 deletes the designated page of the designated document. In the case of transmission, the transmission destination and number of sheets are designated by the operation 4 and a communication control section 8 sends the designated document.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a facsimile machine having a memory receiving function.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional facsimile machines cannot print out a specific page of a specified document from among multiple document information received in memory when receiving it in memory, but print out all the documents received in memory at once. method. In addition, received document information can be output only to the receiving device,
Generally, it was impossible to transmit the data to another device again.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

When the conventional facsimile machine described above prints out the document information received in the memory, it prints out all the document information stored in the memory, regardless of whether it is necessary or unnecessary for the receiving side. Furthermore, it is not possible to output a specific page of the memory-received document on the receiving side. Alternatively, if multiple copies of the document were required, the printed document had to be copied again. Furthermore, when another device attempts to transmit the received document, there are problems such as the need to retransmit the printed recording paper as a document.

[Means to solve the problem]

The facsimile apparatus of the present invention includes means for storing document information from a destination device in a memory, means for searching the document information stored in the memory, and means for specifying pages of the document information and printing out a plurality of copies. The apparatus includes means for specifying a page of the document information and transmitting it, and means for specifying a page of the document information and deleting it from the memory.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, document information 1 received from the other party is
The information is stored in the memory 2 along with information such as the document number. The accumulated document information 1 is searched by the received document search section 3. The operator specifies operation 4 for printing, deleting, or transmitting the searched received document using the operation control unit 5. In the case of print output, the operator specifies the pages to be printed and the number of copies in operation 4, and the recording control unit 6 outputs the specified document. In the case of deletion, the page to be deleted is designated in operation 4, and the memory control unit 7 deletes the designated page of the designated document. In the case of transmission, the transmission destination, the page to be transmitted, and the number of copies are specified in operation 4, and the communication control section 8 transmits the designated document.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention has the effect that by searching and printing out the document received in the memory, the operator can print out the necessary pages and the necessary number of copies when necessary. Furthermore, when it is desired to retransmit document information received in the memory to another device, it is possible to save the trouble of once printing out the received document to be transmitted.

Additionally, documents that are determined to be unnecessary as a result of searching the memory received documents can be deleted.
