Abstract
The present invention provides a facsimile apparatus and controlling method, in which a confidential box number for PC transmission function for sending received information to a personal computer (15) is preliminarily registered. When a facsimile correspondence accompanying the confidential box number for PC transmission function is received, a control section (1) sends out the received information to an interface (10). Thus, the facsimile apparatus can distinguish information to be destined for the personal computer (15) from other received information to automatically send the information to the personal computer (15) by utilizing a confidential communication function thereof.
