The facsimile machine according to the invention can set a so-called night time collective time designation mode for power saving during night time processing time. Turning on a prescribed operation key of the facsimile machine permits printing. More specifically, even when the machine is in the power saving state, a printing operation is permitted in response to a key input.

Facsimile machine capable of distinguishing copied image and received

In a facsimile apparatus, a recording section unit has a clamshell structure in which an upper portion can be opened upwardly with respect to a lower portion. The recording section unit is disposed on a reading section unit and an image processing section unit arranged horizontally which are provided adjacently to one another, and the upper portion of the recording section unit can be opened and closed independently of the lower portion, the reading section unit, and the image processing section unit.

Facsimile apparatus

A facsimile device, which receives picture data of an original document, which is constituted by a plurality of data lines, through a telephone line and records the received picture data onto a record sheet, has a counting device for counting the number of the received data lines, an operation device for comparing the number of the data lines with a predetermined value and evaluating the number of data lines exceeding the predetermined value as an excess number, a determination device for determining whether each of the received data lines is valid or invalid picture data, a data processing device for removing the data lines that are invalid picture data, the number of which corresponds to the excess number, out of the received data lines in accordance with the determination by the determination device, and a recording device for recording the remaining received data lines processed by the data processing device onto the record sheet. A processing method is also disclosed and claimed.

Facsimile device enabling efficient output to record sheet

An image processing apparatus comprising a recording member transport path, and an original transport path, a first path connecting the recording member transport path to the original transport path, and a second path connecting the original transport path to the recording member transport path. In the image processing apparatus having this construction, the recording member having an image recorded on a first surface thereof is sent from the recording member transport path into the original transport path through the first connecting path, and is further sent from the original transport path into the recording member transport path through the second connecting path for recording the image on a second surface thereof while being turned upside down by the switchback movement in the original transport path.
