Abstract

The present invention provides a facsimile-side control method for printing image data in a computer-facsimile connection system that enables printing of scanned data and computer-edited files using a commonly used computer and a general facsimile or receive-only facsimile. In the facsimile-side control method for printing image data in a system in which a facsimile apparatus and a computer are connected to each other, a computer-side control method among programs in a facsimile wait, a print request signal is received from a computer side in a facsimile wait program. When received, the first step of transmitting a print wait signal to the computer side, the second step of receiving a print mode for a predetermined time set, and the mode recognition signal to the computer side, the data reception interrupt (INTRX) is enabled to receive from the computer A third step of storing the data in the FIFO, a fourth step of determining whether to receive data or a command for a new predetermined time, and if the data is received in the fourth step, after decoding the data stored in the FIFO A fifth step of transferring the data to the image recording unit whenever the line buffer is full and storing the data in the buffer; and a sixth step of terminating the execution if the command received in the fourth step is an end-of-file signal or an abort signal. Characterized in that it is carried out.

Description

As this is a public information case, the full text was not included.

1 is a schematic block diagram of a hardware configuration of a computer-facsimile connection system to which the present invention is applied, and FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a main program execution of the present invention.

Claims (2)

Modem and network control means (13) connected to a public communication network for transmitting and receiving images with an external facsimile; facsimile control means (11) connected to the modem and network control means for controlling input and output of image data; Image recording means 15 for printing the image data or the ASCII data inputted in connection with the control unit; serial connection means 14 and first RS232C connection means 16 connected to the facsimile control means and connected to a computer (PC); A facsimile device 10 having a device), a second RS232C connection means 26 for connecting to an external device, a main memory means 22 composed of ROM and RAM, a hard disk 23, input / output And a computer main control means 21 connected to the second RS232C connecting means hard disk keyboard monitor and the main memory means and performing overall control as a device. A facsimile-side control method for receiving image data in a system in which a computer 20 is connected, comprising: a first step of transmitting a print wait signal to a computer side when a print request signal is received from the computer side during a fax standby program; A second step of transmitting a mode recognition signal to the computer within a predetermined time period; a third step of enabling data reception interrupt (INTRX) to store data received from the computer in a FIFO; data or command for a newly set time. A fourth step of determining whether to receive; A fifth step of decoding the data stored in the FIFO, transferring the data stored in the FIFO to the line buffer, and outputting the data to the image recording unit whenever the line buffer is full; And a sixth step of terminating the execution when the command received in the fourth step is a file ending signal or an abort signal. . The method of claim 1, further comprising a seventh step of transmitting the recognition signal to the computer and repeating the process of the second step if the command received in the fourth step is a page ending signal. And a facsimile-side control method for printing image data in a computer-facsimile connection system. ※ Note: The disclosure is based on the initial application.
