Abstract

PURPOSE:To save quantity of paper in use and to improve the performance of confidentiality and quick transmission of a data by allowing a display section to make data transmission and reception. CONSTITUTION:A sender side facsimile equipment A uses an input section 2 such as an input pen to enter a document onto a display section 1. The entered data is displayed on the display section 1 by a control section 6 and read by a read section 3. The data by one page altogether are given to a data memory section 4 with a coding decoding function, in which the data are compressed by the CCITT T.4 MH system and the compressed data is stored therein. A data received by a receiver side facsimile equipment B is stored once in the data memory section 4 with coding decoding function by the control section 6 and the data is subject to MH decoding and outputted on the display section 1. The receiver side operator confirms and discriminates the output data as to whether it is printed out on recording paper by a recording section 5.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a facsimile machine, and more particularly to a facsimile machine equipped with a display input/output device.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in this type of facsimile machine, the sending side reads data on paper as an image, and the receiving side outputs it on recording paper.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional facsimile machine described above, data is input and output on paper on both the sending and receiving sides.

For this reason, the sender's facsimile machine had to write even simple documents on paper and send them, and the receiver's facsimile machine had to record unnecessary data on recording paper, resulting in a large amount of paper consumption on both the sender and the receiver. There was a drawback.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve these problems, the present invention provides a conventional facsimile device that includes a display unit for displaying transmitted data, an input unit such as an input pen, a reading unit for reading transmitted data, and a storage unit for storing the read data. A data memory section with an encoding/decoding function is provided, and the receiving facsimile machine is provided with a data memory section with an encoding/decoding function for storing the sent data, a display section for displaying the data, and a data memory section for storing the sent data. The apparatus is provided with a control section for outputting the data displayed on the display section, and a recording section for determining whether or not to output the data displayed on the display section onto recording paper.

[Effect]

In the display input/output facsimile device according to the present invention, data is transmitted without the need for paper on the sending side, and a selection is made on the receiving side as to whether or not to output the data displayed on the display section onto recording paper.

〔Example〕

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Figure 0 is a block system diagram showing an embodiment of a display input/output facsimile apparatus according to the present invention.

In the figure, A is a sending facsimile machine having a display section 1, an input section 2 such as an input pen, a reading section 3, a data memory section 4 with encoding/decoding functions, and a control section 6. In addition, B is the same as the display section 1.
This is a receiving facsimile machine having a data memory section 4 with a decoding function, a recording section 5, and a control section 6.

In the sending side facsimile machine A, an input section 2 such as an input pen, etc.
, and input the document onto the display section 1 using the . The input data is displayed on the display section I by the control section 6, read by the reading section 3, and stored in the data memory section 4 with encoding/decoding function in one page at a time.
It is stored after being compressed using the TT, 4MH method.

The accumulated data is transmitted to facsimile machine B on the receiving side.

The data received by the receiving facsimile machine FB is stored in the data memory section 4 with encoding/decoding function by the control section 6, then subjected to MH decoding and outputted to the display section 1. The receiving operator checks the output data to determine whether the recording unit 5 should output it to recording paper. Note that the data memory section 4 can be erased at any time.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, data is transmitted and received on the display unit, so that data can be transmitted without the need for paper on the transmitting side, and data can be displayed on the display unit on the receiving side. Since a selection is made as to whether or not to output the data on recording paper, the amount of paper used can be reduced, and data confidentiality and speed can be ensured.
