Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a facsimile machine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a facsimile machine, a roll paper has been mainly used as a recording paper for recording received information, but in recent years, a cut paper of a preselected size has been increasingly used as the recording paper. .

In order to properly record the received information on recording paper such as roll paper or cut paper, ITU-T Recommendation T.264. Based on 30, the receiving side notifies the transmitting side of the information about the width of the recording paper and the information about the sub-scanning direction indicating whether or not the long original can be received, and the transmitting side relates to the width of the original size to be transmitted to the receiving side. Information is notified.

[0004]

When roll recording paper is used, the receiving side is appropriately recorded by notifying the transmitting side of the recording paper width and the receiving side of the width of the transmitted document. It can be recorded on paper without any trouble.

On the other hand, when the cut recording paper is used, the reception information is obtained from the information about the width of the recording paper notified to the transmitting side and the information about the width of the transmission document notified to the receiving side. In some cases, it is not possible to distinguish the width of the recording paper that can be appropriately recorded. For example, A4 from the sender
When the original information of the size is transmitted and the recording paper of the letter paper is set on the receiving side, the width of the original information of the A4 size and the recording paper of the letter paper of the A4 size are determined from the information notified to the transmitting side or the receiving side. A4 cannot be distinguished from width, so A4
Size document information is divided into two letter sheets and recorded, and proper recording is not performed.

Further, when the cut recording paper is set so that its short side direction becomes the scanning direction, the cut paper recording paper may be set so that its long side direction becomes the scanning direction. It is not possible to discriminate the setting state of the recording sheet of the cut sheet from the above information, and the received information may not be properly recorded on the recording sheet depending on the setting state of the recording sheet. In order to properly record the received information on the recording paper according to the set state of the recording paper, a method is used in which the vertical / horizontal direction of the received information is converted by the vertical / horizontal conversion process, and the vertically / horizontally converted information is recorded on the recording paper. However, with this method, the image quality of the recorded image may deteriorate due to the vertical / horizontal conversion processing, and the vertical / horizontal conversion processing is performed on all the received information including the recordable information without the vertical / horizontal conversion processing. That is, the deterioration of the image corresponding to the received information that can be recorded without the vertical / horizontal conversion process occurs.

Furthermore, "receivable" means that the document information can be received, and "receivable and recordable" means
It means that the original can be received and the received information can be properly recorded on the recording paper. For example, when the recording paper corresponding to the document information is not set, the reception is possible, but the reception information is not recorded on the proper recording paper. Therefore,
Receivability does not mean that the received information is properly recorded on the recording paper, and receivability and reception recordability are essentially different.

An object of the present invention is to be able to properly receive and record transmitted document information from a partner device, and
It is an object of the present invention to provide a facsimile device that can properly receive and record transmitted document information in a destination device.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a facsimile apparatus capable of allowing a destination apparatus to determine a transmission condition of transmission original information so that the received information can be properly received and recorded. is there.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a facsimile apparatus capable of determining the receiving / recording operation range of a destination device so that the transmission device information can be properly received and recorded by the destination device. To do.
