  • Patent number: 6057945
    Abstract: A facsimile unit performs a facsimile reception operation of responding to a calling signal automatically and receiving transmitted facsimile data. A telephone unit performs a telephone reception operation of responding to a calling signal only after an operator responds to rings generated so that an operator may conduct a telephone conversation through the facsimile apparatus. A presuming unit presumes whether or not an operator is present based on certain obtained information. A selecting unit allows the facsimile unit to perform the facsimile reception operation and prevents the telephone from performing the telephone receiving operation if the presuming unit presumes that there is no operator. The selecting unit prevents the facsimile unit from performing the facsimile reception operation and allows the telephone to perform the telephone receiving operation if the presuming unit presumes that there is an operator.
