Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a facsimile apparatus which outputs transmission result information after facsimile transmission is completed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, it is known that this type of facsimile apparatus outputs a transmission management report on which the date and time of the transmission, the telephone number of the other party, the number of originals, the transmission result, etc. are printed when the facsimile transmission is completed. . (JP-A-1-13
(See Japanese Patent No. 5179)

[0003]

However, in the conventional facsimile machine, it is difficult to confirm the sender from the transmission management report because the information for identifying the sender is not output in the transmission management report.

On the other hand, as a facsimile transmission operation when the sender is busy, there is storage transmission. For this, the sender only needs to perform the operation of setting the original and storing it in the memory, and when the original is read by the operation, the sender can immediately leave the place with the original that has been read. The data stored in the memory is automatically read later and transmitted by facsimile.

In the case of carrying out such storage transmission, many people often carry out storage operation of originals in the memory alternately in the same time zone, and in such a case, after a certain period of time elapses. Many transmission management reports will be collected. Therefore, when the sender later tries to check the sending status, it was difficult for the conventional sending management report to check which report was sent, especially when many people sent to the same location. . For this reason, it is troublesome to check whether or not one's own manuscript has been certainly transmitted.

This means that when an operator specialized in transmission is requested to transmit a manuscript not only in the case of storing and transmitting but also in the case of normal facsimile transmission, whether or not his or her own manuscript is surely transmitted by the transmission management report. Although it will be checked, it was difficult to confirm in this case as well.

Therefore, the present invention is intended to provide a facsimile apparatus in which a sender of a document can easily and surely confirm his / her transmission result based on personal identification information and output information of a serial number.

[0008]

The invention according to claim 1 is
An input means for inputting personal identification information such as name and identification code in a facsimile device that reads a set original document, performs facsimile transmission via a line based on a destination number, and outputs transmission result information after transmission is completed. And a memory for storing the personal identification information input by the input means, and the input of the personal identification information by the input means during various operations performed prior to the facsimile transmission,
The output means is provided for outputting the personal identification information stored in the memory together with the transmission result information after the transmission is completed.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in a facsimile apparatus that reads a set original document, performs facsimile transmission via a line based on a destination number, and outputs transmission result information after completion of transmission, every facsimile transmission. A number generating means for generating a changing serial number, a display section for displaying a serial number generated by the number generating means during various operations performed prior to facsimile transmission, and a number generating means together with communication result information after communication is completed. The output means for outputting the serial number is provided.

[0010]

According to the present invention having such a configuration, the personal identification information is input at the time of various operations performed prior to the facsimile transmission, so that the personal identification information is output together with the transmission result information after the facsimile transmission is completed. Therefore, it is possible to confirm whose manuscript the transmission result information is based on the personal identification information.

Further, since the serial number is displayed during various operations performed prior to the facsimile transmission, the sender can be associated with the serial number. Therefore, by outputting the serial number together with the transmission result information after the end of the facsimile transmission, it is possible to confirm whose document the transmission result information is.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the construction of a facsimile apparatus. 1 is a terminal control section which constitutes the main body of a control section, 2 is a line control section which controls facsimile communication with a destination via a telephone line, and 3 is a document. It controls the reading control unit 4 for reading the data, the printing control unit 5 as an output unit for printing and recording the data, and the memory control unit 6 for temporarily storing the transmission data and the reception data, and encodes and decodes the communication data. A data control unit 7 is a key input unit as an input unit provided with various keys for performing a facsimile transmission start operation and a telephone number input operation, and 8 is a display unit for displaying a telephone number, a message and the like. These are connected to each other via a bus line 9.

In this facsimile apparatus, the program of the terminal control section 1 is assembled so as to carry out the accumulation transmission based on the operation procedure shown in FIG. First, the original is set in the original insertion section. As a result, the display unit 8 shown in FIG.
Date, time, etc. are displayed as shown in (a). Then, the other party's facsimile number is entered in the key input unit 7. As a result, the destination facsimile number is displayed on the display section 8 as shown in FIG. The destination facsimile number input at this time is temporarily stored in the memory control unit 6.

Subsequently, a name or ID code, which is information for personal identification, such as a name, is input to the key input unit 7.
As a result, the name is displayed on the display section 8 together with the facsimile number of the other party as shown in FIG. The name input at this time is stored in the memory control unit 6 which is a memory.

When the start key is operated in the key input section 7 in this state, the reading control section 4 starts reading the original, and the display section 8 displays "DOCUMENT READING" as shown in FIG. 3 (d). The name is displayed with the message. The original data read at this time is accumulated in the memory control unit 6.

When the reading control section 4 finishes reading the document, facsimile transmission is started. In addition,
In this case, if the previously read document data is stored in the memory control unit 6, the transmission of the document data is prioritized.

Thereafter, when the reading is performed this time and the transmission of the document data accumulated in the memory control section 6 is completed, the print control section 5 causes the sender's name A and the destination telephone number B as shown in FIG. , Communication start date / time C, Communication time D, Communication mode E, Resolution F, Communication result G are printed out and the communication result report is issued.

In this embodiment having such a configuration, the manuscript sender sets the manuscript, inputs the other party's telephone number and his / her name or ID code, and operates the start key. With this, the other party's telephone number and your name or ID
The code is stored in the memory control unit 6.

Further, the original is read by the reading control section 4,
The read data is stored in the memory control unit 6. When the reading control unit 4 finishes reading the original, the sender can leave the place with the original. Therefore, the sender of the next original can set the original and immediately start the operation of reading the original.

When some originals are read, stored in the memory, and each original data is transmitted in this way, a communication result report is issued every time transmission of each original data is completed. After that, when the sender of each manuscript comes to confirm the communication result report, since the name or ID code is printed on each communication result report, his or her own communication result report can be confirmed easily and surely.

Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The hardware configuration is the same as the circuit shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the destination facsimile number is entered in the key input unit 7, the reception unit, which is a serial number, is displayed together with the destination facsimile number on the display unit 8 as shown in FIG. 6 (c). It is supposed to be done.
This reception number is generated by a counter provided in the terminal control unit 1. For example, this counter is initially "0".
It is set to "001", and after that, it is incremented by one each time one facsimile transmission is performed.

The receipt number from this counter is stored in the memory control section 6 together with the original data when the original is read by inputting the start key.

When the transmission of the manuscript data stored in the memory control unit 6 is completed, the print control unit 5 operates as shown in FIG.
As shown in, a communication result report is printed out, which prints out the reception number H, destination telephone number B, communication start date / time C, communication time D, communication mode E, resolution F, and communication result G.

The displays of (a), (b) and (d) in FIG. 6 are shown in FIG.
It is the same as the display of (a), (b), (d).

In this embodiment, when the destination facsimile number is input, the reception number, which is a serial number, is displayed on the display unit 8 together with the destination facsimile number. At this point, the sender remembers the reception number. When the communication result report is later confirmed, the reception number printed on each communication result report is checked, so that the user can easily and surely confirm the communication result report.

In the above embodiment, the data of the read original is stored in the memory control unit 6 and then transmitted to the other party, but the present invention is not limited to this. May be immediately transmitted to the other party. Even in such a case, for example, when requesting the transmission of the manuscript to a dedicated operator who operates the apparatus, the operator receives requests from many manuscript senders and collectively transmits the manuscript, When the operator later returns the communication result report together with the manuscript to each sender, the operator can easily take action.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the one which issues the communication result report in which the name or ID code and the receipt number are printed has been described, but the present invention is not necessarily limited to this, and for example, one which can display a large screen as the display unit. The communication result may be displayed on the display unit in the same format as the communication result report.
