Abstract
Image data are read out line by line from an image memory which store received image data. The read out image data are decoded, and upon removing an isolation point, developed into a line of original data. It is determined whether the developed line of original data are involved in only white information. If it is determined that the data are involved in all white information, a number of continuous line involved in all white information are counted. A recording sheet is transferred by the counted number corresponding to form a white area. Subsequently, a scan of data top of which is involved in a line including black information are generated and transmitted to a recording unit. Specifically, to send a scan of data referenced above to the recording unit, data involved in white information at both the start and end sides of the scan are cut.
