Abstract
A source facsimile machine has a function of ending a retransmission process when image data related to error-free frames cannot be received at a destination facsimile machine. The destination facsimile detects an error in each of lines of the frame and records the error-free lines. Hence, even when errors exist in the received frames, it is still possible to record the received image by recording the error-free lines. In other words, the detination facsimile can record the received image with a minimum dropout of image information caused by the errors in the received frames.
