Abstract
A technology to facilitate realization of facsimile transmission of an image over a network is provided. A facsimile device includes an image data storage unit to store received image and an output device connection unit that connects the facsimile device to an image output device. The output device connection unit can switch the logical connection to the image output device between a connected state and a disconnected state. File management of the image data storage unit is performed by the image output device during the logical connection is in the connected state. The facsimile device receives the image data in the disconnected state, switches the logical connection to the connected state after the reception of the image data, transfers the image data stored in the image data storage unit to the image output device, and switches the logical connection to the disconnected state after the image data is transferred.
