Abstract

The present invention relates to a facsimile document transmission method for sending different originals to multiple places. In order to transmit the above originals to multiple senders using a conventional facsimile document transmission method, the document transmission is completed by specifying a destination. In order to eliminate the inconvenience of repeating the original after watching the original transmission, the fax user can designate the next sender to load the original and then send the original to each different destination page by page. In order to designate a destination for each page in advance, the original is automatically transmitted to the destination specified for each page.

Description

How to send a document of a fax

The present invention relates to a facsimile, and more particularly, to a document transmission method for transmitting different documents to various places.

In general, a facsimile machine is a device that transmits and receives data, and is a convenient device that significantly reduces time and effort in transmitting and receiving documents in view of the rapidly changing reality. As shown in FIG. 1, the CPU 10 controls the overall operation of the facsimile according to a set program. The memory 12 stores telephone numbers or image data, and temporarily stores data generated when the program is executed. OPE (OPERATING PANEL) 14 includes a plurality of function keys and numeric keys, and applies key data according to the pressing of the keys to the central processing unit 10, and displays an operation state under the control of the central processing unit 10. With a device. The scanner 16 reads the original and supplies the image information to the CPU 10 when the original is supplied. The modem 18 performs analog modulation on the transmission data under the control of the CPU 10, and demodulates the analog reception data. The LIU (LINE INTERFACE UNIT) 20 is operated under the control of the CPU 10 to form a call loop of a telephone line, and interfaces the signal of the modem 18 with the signal of the telephone line. The printer 22 prints the image data on the recording sheet under the control of the central processing unit 10.

In general, the fax original transmission function includes a general transmission function in which a user loads an original and dials the sender directly, and transmits the original using a speed dial, and the same original is sent to several places. Various functions for document transmission, such as useful multi-transmission function, polling reception function that allows the recipient to make a call from the receiving party, time schedule transmission function to send the original at a specified time, and mailbox transmission function to use confidentiality This is provided by the facsimile. For example, a method of transmitting a document of a conventional facsimile will be described with reference to FIG. 2. In step 101, the CPU 10 detects a document to be sent by a user from a sensor unit (not shown). When the sensing signal is generated, the original is loaded up to the reader. Thereafter, in step 102, the CPU 10 receives a telephone number of a sender to be transmitted from the user through the keypad of the OPE 14. At this time, the user may dial the sender's telephone number directly to dial the sender, but may also dial a previously registered sender's telephone number such as a speed dial and a group dial by a simple key operation. As another transmission destination designation method, the user can select and designate in a manner each provided to the original transmission functions of the various conventional faxes described above. When the sender to which the original is to be sent is dialed in this manner, the CPU 10 transmits the original to the dialed sender in step 103.

It is useful and convenient to use the conventional document sending function if it meets the original fax function of the conventional facsimile as described above. However, if the user wants to send different originals to several places, the conventional document sending function may be used. In this case, the document is loaded for each sender to be sent, and the operation of dialing the sender is repeated to watch the sender process until the desired transmission is completed.

In the case of sending different originals to several places as described above, conventional faxes first load an original to be sent to one place, send the original by specifying a destination, and then load the original to be sent to the next place. There is a problem in that the user has to repeat the transmission process by designating a transmission destination.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a document transmission method capable of automatically transmitting different originals to various places.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for sending a document of a facsimile, wherein if a page-specific transmission destination is specified for page-by-page transmission of originals to different destinations after loading an original having multiple pages, The original is characterized by being automatically transmitted.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention, such as specific processing flows. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. Detailed descriptions of well-known functions and configurations that are determined to unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention will be omitted.

Components of the facsimile according to the present invention are the same as in FIG. 1, and the same reference numerals are used.

Referring to FIG. 3, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 3. First, in step 201, the central processing unit 10 transmits a text to a user. When the original is placed on the original pedestal and sensed by the sensor unit (not shown) to generate a sensing signal, the original is loaded to the reading unit. Thereafter, in step 202, the CPU 10 checks whether a function for transmitting by selecting a transmission destination for each page is selected. The function of designating and transmitting a transmission destination for each page allows the user to select the key of the function in advance in the keypad of the OPE 14 according to the present invention. If the designated function key is selected and input by the user, the central processing unit 10 proceeds to step 204, and if the function key is not selected, proceeds to step 203 to perform a general document transmission function. In step 204, the central processing unit 10 receives a transmission destination to be sent for each page of the original composed of a plurality of pages from the user. For example, if the user presses a function key that transmits originals by specifying a different destination for each page, a message is displayed on the LCD screen of OPE 14 to specify the destination to be sent for each page, and the user can specify the destination for each page. Done. If a manuscript consists of 10 pages, the user should send pages 1-3 to the destination of 02-111-2222, pages 4-6 to the destination of 0546-460-9999, and pages 7-10 by 02-333-4444. To transmit to each sender, the user inputs the sender of each page through the keypad of OPE 14. The CPU 10 checks the transmission destination for each page input by the user and designates a corresponding transmission destination. If the destinations are specified for each original page, the CPU 10 automatically transmits the originals of the pages to the designated destinations in the order entered by the user in step 205. The page will be automatically sent to the sender. This process is repeated until all the pages have been sent to the user-specified destination. The transmission destination and the protocol process according to the original transmission are well-known techniques and thus will be omitted.

Meanwhile, in the detailed description of the present invention, specific embodiments have been described, but various modifications are possible without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should not be limited to the described embodiments, but should be defined not only by the scope of the following claims, but also by the equivalents of the claims.

As described above, the present invention has the effect of facilitating the user's convenience when the fax is to transmit different manuscripts to various places.
