Abstract: A facsimile apparatus which temporarily stores a document received and realizes selective printing as required. This apparatus comprises a communication terminal, a modem, a memory which stores received information demodulated by the modem, a display which displays such received information, a recording device which records such received information and a switch which selects driving of the memory, display and/or recording device. With this apparatus received information is once stored in the memory and is selectively recorded as required by the recording device after confirmation of the contents of the received information with the display.

Abstract: A copy machine designed specifically for mounting adjacent the console of a motor vehicle between the front seats thereof includes an elongated rectangular chassis having a cover member pivoted at one end thereof and an output table pivoted at the opposite end thereof with the upper surfaces of the cover member and output table defining an armrest surface. An image reader is mounted in the cover member and cooperating feed rolls are provided on a chassis and cover member for feeding an original document past the image reader and outwardly through an aperture in the upper surface of the output table. An input table is pivotally mounted coaxially with the cover member to provide a guide surface for feeding the original document between the cover member and the chassis. A printing mechanism including a paper supply is mounted in the chassis adjacent the paper feeder and an internal cover member directs the printed copy to a storage compartment which is accessible upon lifting the output table.
