Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a description miss by preparing and outputting an optical mark reader(OMR) sheet describing the communicating operation designating contents of a facsimile while referring a storing means and a communicating operation designating contents storing means for the format of an OMR. CONSTITUTION:When it is desired to obtain the OMR sheet describing communication contents, a control part 6 activates an OMR pattern data preparation part 9 and the OMR pattern data preparation part 9 reads out the pattern of the format for the OMR from an OMR format storage part 10 and reads out the stored set contents from a final communication set storage part 8. While referring both the pattern of the format and the set contents related to the communication, the pattern data for OMR sheet description is prepared. After the preparation is finished, the main control part 6 activates a recording part 4 and the recording part 4 executes recording onto a recording sheet based on the pattern data and prepares the OMR sheet to which the communication set contents are already described.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Purpose of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to facsimile devices.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, facsimile machines use OMR (Optical Mark R), which has a predetermined format.
There is a sheet for eader (optical mark reading device).

If you want to perform a specific communication, you can black out the corresponding part on this OMR sheet, write the recipient's phone number, and code it in the specified manner to specify the recipient, transmission time, line density, and notification. Various communication functions were specified, such as the specification of .

However, writing in this OMR sheet is extremely complicated, and the more communication functions that can be specified, the more troublesome it becomes to fill in the OMR sheet.

In addition, there are other unfilled O's that are prone to filling errors.
There was a problem in that communication specifications could not be made unless the MR sheet was at hand.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, with conventional facsimile machines, it is troublesome to fill in the OMR sheet, and filling errors are likely to occur. Also,
There was a problem in that communication specifications could not be made unless a blank OMR sheet was on hand.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of this problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a facsimile machine that can easily create an OMR sheet without any entry errors.

[Structure of the Invention] (Means for Solving the Problems) A first storage means that stores an OMR format, a second storage means that stores communication operation designation contents,
The present invention is characterized by comprising means for creating and outputting an OMR sheet in which facsimile communication operation designation contents are written by referring to the first storage means and the second storage means.

(Function) The facsimile apparatus of the present invention refers to the first storage means storing the OMR format and the second storage means storing the communication operation specification contents. An OMR sheet filled in is created and output.

(Embodiments) Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of an embodiment of a facsimile apparatus of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 1 is a line control section, 2 is a code/decoding section, 3 is a reading section, 4 is a recording section, 5 is an operation management section, 6 is a main control section, and 7 is a communication management recording section. It has a communication setting storage section 8. 9 is an OMR pattern data creation section, 10 is an OMR format storage section, 11 is an OMR reading section, 1
2 is the key human resources department.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart related to FIG. 1, and the main control section 6 performs control operations based on this flowchart.

First, it waits for key human power from the key human power section 12 (step 101), and then determines whether there is a communication request by key human power (step 101).
Step 102). For example, in step 102, if there is key power to perform transmission or polling, the operation management section 5 notifies the main control section 6 of this fact, and the main control section 6 then sets the final communication settings in the communication management recording section 7. The storage unit 8 stores the settings related to communication at this time, and the line control unit 1
to perform communication related to the setting contents (step 1)
06). As a result, various data such as the party, time, linear density, etc. at the time of this communication operation are stored in the final communication setting storage section 8. In addition, in the case of new communication,
As a matter of course, the settings related to the new communication are stored in the final communication settings storage section 8.

Next, if the user wishes to obtain an OMR sheet in which the content of the communication that has just been made is entered, an OMR sheet creation request is input from the key personnel section 12 (step 104). The operation management section 5 accepts this request, and the main control section 6 starts up the OMR pattern data creation section 9 accordingly. The OMR pattern data creation section 9 reads the OMR format pattern from the OMR format storage section 10, and also reads out the setting contents already stored in step 106 from the final communication setting storage section 8. Then, pattern data for filling in the OMR sheet is created with reference to both the format pattern and the settings related to communication.

After the creation is completed, the main control unit 6 starts the recording unit 4, and the recording unit 4
performs recording on recording paper based on the pattern data, thereby creating an OMR sheet in which the communication settings have been filled in. (Step 107).

Also, if you use the OMR sheet with communication settings filled in (step 103), you can use the OMR sheet from this OMR sheet.
The communication content is read by the reading unit 11 and recorded in the communication management recording unit 7 via the main control 6. Then, the main control section 6 controls the line control section 1 based on the communication contents recorded in the communication management recording section 7, and communicates with the other party via the line (step 106).

In this embodiment, an OMR sheet in which the facsimile communication operation specification contents have been filled in is created and output, but the OMH format is stored without referring to the storage unit that stores the communication operation specification contents. By referring only to the storage section that has
It is also possible to create and output sheets.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the facsimile apparatus of the present invention, an OMR sheet in which communication operation specification contents are recorded can be created. Therefore, it is possible to save time and effort in filling in the communication operation specification contents, and also to prevent writing errors.
