Abstract
An abnormality indication system of a facsimile apparatus comprises a pattern generator, disposed in the facsimile apparatus on the reception side, which is capable of producing image element information indicating the abnormality of the facsimile apparatus when the facsimile apparatus is hung up and which applies the abnormality indicating information to a plotter of the facsimile apparatus, instead of an original image information so far applied to the plotter. The abnormality indicating information is written on a recording sheet by the plotter and the recording sheet is then discharged from the plotter.
