20120194856 | FACSIMILE COMMUNICATION APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A facsimile communication apparatus for transmitting and receiving image data via a telephone public circuit network is provided. The apparatus includes a first detection unit configured to detect a call signal from the network; a line capturing unit configured to capture the network in response to the detection of the call signal; a second detection unit configured to detect that a voltage value applied from the network has exceeded a threshold after the capture of the network; a protection unit configured to execute a protection function of protecting the apparatus from a voltage applied from the network in response to the detection of an exceeded voltage value; and a control unit configured to control the protection unit to switch from an ON state to an OFF state, after the capture of the network and before reception of image data. | 08-02-2012 |
20120229836 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS PROVIDED WITH AN IMAGE MEMORY USED BY A PLURALITY OF BOARDS PERFORMING EXPANDED DATA PROCESSINGS, BACKUP PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM READABLE BY COMPUTER - An image processing apparatus for eliminating the necessity of providing a first control board with a power supply unit beforehand for backing up data stored in an image memory, and reducing the cost of the apparatus as a whole. To accomplish this, in an image processing apparatus including a system control board configured to perform image processing, a memory backup function is enabled for an image memory storing data to be processed by the system control board, when a facsimile communication board is connected. | 09-13-2012 |
20130136143 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS CAPABLE OF SELECTING USE BANDWIDTH, METHOD OF CONTROLLING COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A communication apparatus which is capable of easily selecting a use bandwidth desired by a user when the user transmits data using via a network in which the use charge is different depending on the use bandwidth. A CPU acquires charge information indicative of a use charge in each of use bandwidths of the network. Further, the CPU determines a use bandwidth to be used for transmitting the data, according to the size of the data and the acquired charge information. | 05-30-2013 |
20130215463 | FACSIMILE APPARATUS CAPABLE OF OUTPUTTING COMMUNICATION TONES, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A facsimile apparatus which uses a tone output unit that outputs tones when a VoIP communication in which audio data for a facsimile communication by way of a public telephone line is sent and received over an IP network is being carried out, so as to make a user aware that a non-VoIP communication in which a facsimile communication is carried out by way of the IP network without using audio data is being carried out. When the VoIP communication is being carried out, the tone output unit outputs a first tone for notifying the user of a communication status of the VoIP communication. When the non-VoIP communication is carried out, the tone output unit outputs a second tone so as to notify the user of a communication status of the non-VoIP communication. | 08-22-2013 |
20140169540 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image processing apparatus registers voice call destination information and data transmission destination information for a destination in association with each other. The image processing apparatus executes a voice call with the destination using the voice call destination information, and executes, after the voice call, data transmission to the destination using the data transmission destination information in accordance with a data transmission instruction input by the user. | 06-19-2014 |
20140347701 | IMAGE COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A present image communication apparatus performs voice communication with an external apparatus via a network, acquires image communication information indicating an image communication capability of the external apparatus, displays an operation screen that is related to image communication and includes at least information indicating whether or not voice communication can be continued when performing image communication based on the acquired image communication information, and controls image communication in accordance with user input that has been made via the operation screen. | 11-27-2014 |
20140368889 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A communication apparatus comprises a modem configured to performed FAX communication, and a connection unit configured to connect a telephone apparatus. The communication apparatus detects a CNG signal, and controls, in a case where there is an incoming call in a state in which FAX communication is being performed by the modem, if the CNG signal is not detected in the detecting, so that a signal is supplied from a line to the telephone apparatus, and controls, in a case where there is an incoming call in a state in which FAX communication is not being performed by the modem, if the CNG signal is detected in the detecting, so that FAX communication by the modem is initiated. | 12-18-2014 |
20140369481 | IMAGE COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image communication apparatus capable of performing calls/facsimiles via an IP network, and equipped with at least two modems and an SLIC that connects a telephone, determines whether an establishment of a session is possible when an INVITE signal, for which a media type is audio, is received. The apparatus controls so that in an automatic reception mode, when it is determined that an establishment of a session is possible, a usable modem is selected from the modems, and treated as audio communication is performed using that selected modem, and also so that when it is determined that the establishment of a session is possible, it is determined whether the SLIC is in use, and when it is not in use, a call of the telephone is performed by the SLIC. | 12-18-2014 |
20140369490 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A communication apparatus has an off-hook detection function, and has a first electric power supply for supplying electric power to a telephone control unit for controlling a telephone apparatus, and a second electric power supply for supplying electric power to an off-hook detection unit for detecting an off-hook of the telephone apparatus. The apparatus causes the off-hook detection unit to detect an off-hook of the telephone apparatus when, from a first power mode, a second power mode, in which electric power consumption is less than in the first power mode, is transitioned into. | 12-18-2014 |
