Abstract
In a facsimile equipment, a discharge tray on which a received hard copy is discharged is used in common as a receptacle for an original to be transmitted also. In a replay mode, additional information is entered on the received hard copy, which is then read as an original for a re-transmission to a mating facsimile equipment. A position coordinate entry unit is disposed on the common tray so that when a position of a selected item on the received hard copy is depressed, the position coordinate entry unit is effective to read such position to enable a receiving recorder to enter a given mark on the received hard copy at such position as additional information. In this manner, the use of a writing instrument to enter additional information can be dispensed with.
