Patent number: 6853749Abstract: A character recognition section generates character recognition result information resulting from character recognition of image information. An image information cutout section cuts out character recognition image information, corresponding to an area as to which the character recognition is performed, from the image information. A recognition result generation section generates recognition result information which is composed of the character recognition result information and the character recognition image information. A recognition result transmission section transmits the recognition result information to other terminals using electronic mail. As a result, an information communications apparatus of the invention can make transmissions of information to the wide area, without increasing the network load, which is to be used for the determination of whether or not a character recognition has been accurately performed.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2001Date of Patent: February 8, 2005Assignee: Panasonic Communications Co.

Patent number: 6847994Abstract: An error detecting section detects an error caused in a mail transmitting section. The error detecting section instructs an error message data generating section to generate an error message data when detecting the error. The error message data includes a character string generated to correspond to the error, and a code. The error message data generating section transmits generated error message data to an ICMP processing section. The ICMP processing section has a function of notifying a communication partner of information using a packet in accordance with a protocol for management, which reports information of a protocol state of IP layer, that is ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol). The ICMP processing section puts error message data into a Data frame of the packet, and transmits this packet to a predetermined destination via LAN.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2000Date of Patent: January 25, 2005Assignee: Panasonic Communications Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masao Akimoto, Kyoji Saito

Patent number: 6836789Abstract: IFAX determines whether IFAX transmission processing or network scanner processing should be performed based on whether a start button or a scanner button is pressed on after an operator inputs a destination mail address. In a case of performing IFAX transmission processing, a journal is superimposed on an original image and e-mail is transmitted to the IFAX via a mail server. While, in a case of performing network scanner processing, the IFAX does not perform the creation of journal, bitmapping, compression, and combination with the original image. Therefore, the original image can be transferred to a PC without superimposing the journal thereon. This prevents the trouble in which the journal hinders the PC from dealing with the original image.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2000Date of Patent: December 28, 2004Assignee: Panasonic Communications Co., Ltd.Inventor: Kiyoshi Toyoda
