Abstract
The fax transmission routine is started in S when a fax entering command is transmitted from the personal computer. The fax transmission data is stored in S to S Once a data operation command, such as a print command, a send command, and a deletion command, are inputted, then corresponding operations are executed in S to S The print command is included in the data operation commands. Also the fax transmission data is deleted only after a deletion command is received. Therefore, whether or not the fax transmission data has been properly converted into a fax format can be confirmed before the fax transmission data is transmitted to a remote device. Also, a printed copy of the facsimile message can be obtained based on the fax transmission data. There is no need to retransmit the data in order to obtain the fax copy.
