  • Patent number: 8693650
    Abstract: There is a need to provide a technique of accurately detecting an identification signal representing that the partner performs facsimile communication, by using an appropriate detection filter in accordance with the operation mode in a facsimile apparatus. Based on whether the FAX/TEL mode (first mode) or the TEL answering mode (second mode) is set as the operation mode, a facsimile apparatus according to this invention determines whether a band-pass filter and band-reject filter are to be used. The facsimile apparatus detects a CNG based on the signal detection result using the determined filter.

  • Publication number: 20120019862
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of displaying an operation screen based on screen information received from an external apparatus includes a storage unit, data storage unit, a transmission unit, and a control unit. The storage unit stores internal screen information for displaying an operation screen. The data storage unit stores data set via an operation screen based on received screen information. The transmission unit transmits set data to the external apparatus. When the image processing apparatus cannot receive screen information in response to transmitted data from the external apparatus, the control unit performs control to display an operation screen with the internal screen information in which the stored data is reflected.
