Abstract:
Communication equipment in which first and second telephone number data is registered by a single selection key and first and second telephone number data is selected and dialed according to selection key input includes a data communication device and a conversation communication device. A first detector detects the hook state of the conversation communication device and a second detector detects the presence or absence of data. In response to the selection key input to dial the selected telephone number, a controller selects either the first or the second telephone number data according to the operation of the first and second detectors.
Abstract:
A data transmission apparatus includes an NCU for transmitting data, a control circuit for receiving information representing a receivable capacity from a receiver, and a remaining transmissible paper number display circuit for informing a receivable data amount of the receiver on the basis of the information. A data reception apparatus includes an NCU for receiving data, a control circuit for detecting a receivable data amount of the NCU, and a memory control flag, and write and read pointer address memory circuits, these three of which are arranged to transmit information representing the receivable data amount to the transmitter. A method of communicating data is also disclosed.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a thermal transfer recording apparatus for image recording by ink transfer from an ink sheet, in which the thermal head is energized in divided manner in plural blocks, and the recording sheet and the ink sheet are so transported as to generate a relative speed therebetween, thus facilitating the ink peeling from the ink sheet.
Abstract:
A heat transfer recording method of transferring the ink of an ink sheet to a recording medium to thereby effect recording of an image on the recording medium is characterized in that the ink sheet is conveyed in the direction opposite to the conveyance direction of the recording medium and recording of an image is effected on the recording medium.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a thermal transfer printer for image recording by ink transfer from an ink sheet onto a recording sheet, which is capable of stable sheet transportation and improvement in image quality. The printer has transport mechanisms for the ink sheet and the recording sheet, a thermal head for heating the ink sheet, and a controller. If a next recording operation is not instructed by the end of a preceding recording operation, the controller starts the transportation of the sheets and at the same time activates the thermal head with an energy smaller than in the ordinary image recording, thus effecting pre-heating of the thermal head prior to the start of the next recording operation.
Abstract:
A thermal transfer recording apparatus for image recording on a recording medium by transfer of ink from an ink sheet is taught. This apparatus includes recording means for transferring ink from the ink sheet onto a recording medium to record, a rotary member capable of rotation for transporting the recording medium, and transporting means for transporting the ink sheet with a relative speed with respect to the recording medium, wherein the frictional force between the recording medium and the rotary member is made larger than the shearing force in the ink in the ink sheet during the recording operation.
Abstract:
A heat transfer recording apparatus for transferring the ink of an ink sheet to a recording medium to thereby effect the recording of images on the recording medium has ink sheet conveying means for conveying the ink sheet, recording medium conveying means for conveying the recording medium, recording means for acting on the ink sheet to effect the recording of images on the recording medium, counting means for counting the number of bits of black information of image data recorded by the recording means, and control means for controlling so as to change the recording period by the recording means in conformity with the number of the bits of black information counted by the counting means.
Abstract:
A data communication system, capable of operating in an error correction mode, is capable of producing, when data received in an error correction mode could not be correctly recorded, information indicative of the occurrence of such a recording failure. When an error exists in data received in the error correction mode, a message is recorded subsequent to the recording of the received data to announce the presence of the error, thus facilitating recognition of the occurrence of error.
Abstract:
A facsimile apparatus which transmits original image data separately in accordance with size of receiving sheets at a receiving station includes a receiving page counter for counting the number of the receiving sheets on which the original image data is reproduced, and data corresponding to count value of the page counter is transmitted to the receiving station.
Abstract:
A data communication method includes the steps of: sending a communication procedure signal prior to data communication; sending a data signal; and sending a stop signal for stopping an echo suppressor function on a communication network; wherein the stop signal is sent prior to the data signal in such a way that a time interval during which no signal is generated does not occur, after the stop signal is sent, until the data signal is sent. A data communication apparatus includes: a communication unit for sending and receiving a data signal; a discrimination unit for discriminating if the apparatus is a calling station; and a control unit for controlling to change a communication controlling mode based on the output from the discrimination unit.
