Abstract:
A facsimile apparatus that receives an e-mail message through a local area network, stores image data contained in the e-mail message in a data storage unit, converts the image data stored in the data storage unit into image data that a facsimile terminal can properly handle, and transfers the converted image data to the facsimile terminal. The facsimile apparatus accordingly can transfer the image data contained in the received e-mail message to the facsimile terminal even if the facsimile terminal cannot receive e-mail messages.
Abstract:
A communication apparatus includes a registering part, a paper feeder, an information storing part, a selector, a recording part, and a recording controller. The registering part registers information of communication apparatuses to communicate with beforehand. The paper feeder includes a plurality of paper feed stages selectively feeding recording paper, at least one of the paper feed stages having recording paper different in color or material from the recording paper placed on the other paper feed stages. The information storing part stores information specifying the paper feed stage allocated for outputting a communication report for each of the communication apparatuses. The selector selects the specified paper feed stage. The recording part records information on the recording paper. The recording controller carries out a control to record by the recording part the communication report on the recording paper placed on the selected paper feed stage, when a communication error occurs or the communication is completed.
