Abstract

PURPOSE:To confirm simply whether the input is performed correctly or not, by listing up all inputted initial data, and outputting the result at the end of input. CONSTITUTION:A printer section 5 is provided with a character generator 52. All the inputted initial data by key operation are stoed tentatively in a code buffer 51 under the control of a control section 55. The control section 55 reads out the data one by one code, transmits it to the character generator 52, and the character pattern outputted from the character generator 52 corresponding to the code is stored in a pattern buffer 53. When the character pattern for one line's share is stored in the pattern buffer 53, the control section 55 transmits the picture signal in the character pattern to a printing section 54 one by one line. The printing section 54 prints all the initial data under the control of the control section 55.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement in a facsimile machine.

[Technical background of the invention]

Conventional facsimile machines (1, 1) operate the keys on the panel to input data such as setting date and time, sender identification, bus code, journal output time, etc., through the registration port. Normally, the initial data recorded in this way is only displayed on a display when the items mentioned above are available.

[Problems with background technology]

After registering all the initial data, all Jtl
) The data can only be inspected directly, making it difficult for inexperienced operators to understand.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention has been made in consideration of the shortcomings of the conventional facsimile apparatuses, and its purpose is to provide a facsimile IJf: system that records initial data in a list form.

[4 Summary of the Invention] Therefore, in the present invention, the printer 5 is provided with a numb-kiraku generator, and the initial data input by key operation is converted into a -C character pattern by this character generator. ; To record initial data based on Kuhn (Koshi 7'j.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Hereinafter, one example of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, 1 indicates a CPU. A bus 2 extends from this CPUI, and a memory 3, a scanner section 4, a printer section 5, an operation panel section 6, and a transmission section 7 are connected to this bus 2. Further, the transmission section 7 and the printer section 5 are connected by a signal line 8, so that the received image signal is sent from the transmission section 7 to the printer section 5. Further, the scanner unit 4 and the transmission ifl getori, 1 are connected at the fort 9, so that the image signal obtained from the original is sent from the scanner unit 4 to the transmission 1ls7.

In the configuration described in -, the CPUI controls each part 611 according to the program stored in the memory 3.

By the way, the operation panel 6 has a keyboard and a display (for example, LEI) arranged on the panel.
The initial data entered by key operations on the keyboard is encoded and sent to the CPU via bus 2.
1, and the CPUI temporarily stores it in the memory 3. In this case, the initial data for each item is displayed on the above-mentioned display as in the past. When all the initial data have been input, the operator inputs data indicating the end of input by operating keys on the keyboard. Then,
This data is taken into the ePUl via bus 2 and c
pul reads all the initial data codes stored in memory 3 and sends them to the printer via bus 2. Send to Japan 5.

This printer section 5 includes a code buffer 5 as shown in FIG.
1, a character generator 52, pattern buffers 5 and 3 that store character patterns for one line, and a printing unit 5.
4, and a control unit 55 which has a function of controlling the print format and controlling each part.
and.

All the codes that have reached the code buffer 51 from the bus 2 are temporarily stored in the code buffer 51 under the control of the control section 55.

Therefore, the control unit 55 reads each code and sends it to the character generator 52, and the character pattern output from the character generator 52 corresponding to this code is stored in the pattern buffer 53. The pattern buffer 53 has a capacity of, for example, one line of characters (or one page of recording paper), and stores character patterns in a layout that matches the print format under the control of the control unit 55. .

When the character pattern for one line is stored in the pattern buffer 53, the control section 55F'i sends both signals in the character pattern to the printing section 54 one line at a time. In the printing section 54, all initial data is printed under the control of the control section 55.

A recording paper 100 printed in this manner is shown in FIG. As is clear from FIG. 3, all initial data such as setting date and time, sender identification, passcode, and journal output 119 are printed on the recording paper 100 in a format prescribed by the company.

In this embodiment, the end of inputting the initial data is instructed by the operator's key operation, but the control unit 55 detects that the manual input of the initial data for the preset 75r items has ended, and then automatically starts inputting the initial data. Alternatively, the recording operation may be started automatically.

〔Effect of the invention〕

In this way, in the facsimile machine of the present invention, all inputted initial data is output as a list when the manual input is completed, so it is easy to check whether the input was performed correctly or not. ri
I can recognize it.

Moreover, the keyboard in the explanation of the above 7 keys is generally a numeric keypad, which is used to input initial data, and the display is often displayed using only numbers. Therefore, in the present invention, the initial data of each item is listed and the correspondence relationship can be clearly seen, so that not only a skilled operator V but also an inexperienced operator can understand the correspondence.
This allows for extremely easy and accurate confirmation.
