摘要:
An image collector/transmitter with the smallest transmission cost is provided which can collect images from image keeping locations with the smallest transmission cost without lowering user services such as selection of an output receiver. Position information indicating the keeping location of image data is managed, and when a print order is issued from an external apparatus, the image data for the print order is collected in accordance with the managed position information, and the collected image data and a print request for the print order are transmitted to a printer controller.

A relay device includes a receiver that receives facsimile transmission instructions via a private network from a client device that does not include facsimile transmitting functions, a facsimile communication unit that transmits a facsimile externally via a public network, on the basis of the facsimile transmission instructions received by the receiver, a determiner that, on the basis of the content of the facsimile transmission instructions received by the receiver, determines whether or not to request another device connected via the private network to execute facsimile transmission, and a requester that, in the case where the determiner determines to request another device to execute facsimile transmission, sends a transmission request regarding some or all of the facsimile transmission instructions received by the receiver to another device.

Apparatus includes a communication predelivery receiver, configured to communicate with and relay both IP addressed overhead and IP addressed payload data from an originating communication device. The communication predelivery receiver includes a screener configured to, when the communication predelivery receiver is in communication with the originating communication device, receive certain data including first IP addressed data and second IP addressed data of corresponding first and second initiated communications. The communication predelivery receiver is configured and connected within a network so the first IP addressed data and the second IP addressed data are processed differently. For the first initiated communication, the first payload data is converted, after the point in time at which the screener received the first IP addressed data, from IP addressed first payload data to another network signal. For the second initiated communication, the second payload data is delivered without so converting the second payload data.

A fax interface unit provides a novel way of sending and receiving a fax over a global computer network such as the internet. The fax interface unit is coupled to a legacy fax machine on one side and to both a local area network and the telephone network on the other side. When a first location transmits a fax document to a second location having an email address capable of receiving the fax document, the telephone network is bypassed and the transmitted fax document arrives as email at the second location, thereby reducing telephone cost and providing the second location with an archived document.
摘要:
A facsimile apparatus communicates with plural partners using adaptors for communication networks such as an ISDN, a LAN, or the PSTN. Both telephone number and IP address information are stored as transmission partner information for abbreviated dialing. At the time of transmission, by specifying only one of the telephone number and the IP address information, the lowest cost line can be selected automatically in accordance with the prevailing conditions, so that image data can be transmitted and received through the line. If communication fails through the first selected line for a prescribed number of times, the communication path is switched to another line automatically, and transmission is tried again, thereby ensuring the transmission.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a facsimile device for local facsimile to computer interconnection. A preferred embodiment of the present invention is comprised of the facsimile device 3 which is capable of being connected to a facsimile transceiver 1 and a computer 2. The facsimile device 3 allows the computer 2 to print data on the facsimile transceiver 1 using the facsimile device 3. Similarly, a document scanned on the facsimile transceiver 1 can be communicated to the computer 2 by the facsimile device 3. Under the control of a microprocessor 10, it is also possible to send or receive a facsimile or transfer a file using facsimile protocols from the computer to the telephone network, or vice versa, which may be connected to the device 3 at connector 15. Similarly, the facsimile transceiver 1 can send or receive documents by the telephone network.
