Abstract
A facsimile device operable in either a memory receiving mode or direct receiving mode. When the device is put in a memory receiving mode after previous memory receiving, the image information transmitted next time is directly received, and thereby the repetition of the memory receiving mode and the retransmission of information can be eliminated and the convenience of memory receiving can be improved. A facsimile control portion detects a memory remaining amount of the image information memory available storing image information. When the absence of a memory remaining amount is detected, the occurrence of a memory over (operation in the memory receiving mode) is stored in the system memory. When the calling arrival occurs, the document is memory-received or directly received on the basis of the presence or absence of the memory over occurrence stored in the system memory.
