Facsimile apparatus and information printing method of facsimile apparatus

摘要

An object of the present invention is to discriminate received information from one and same originator visually and readily. A CPU (2) detects identification information of the originator in receiving a facsimile. It also selects identification information which coincides with the identification information detected among identification information of originators stored in a printing color table in a RAM (6) in advance and selects a printing color corresponding to the identification information. A signal generating circuit (7) generates an index signal which instructs to print an index mark in a selected printing color. The CPU (2) controls an operation of a color printer (5) so as to print the index mark in a predetermined color based on the index signal together with image information. It is possible to discriminate information transmitted from a predetermined terminal by selecting the recording sheet on which the index mark of the predetermined printing color is printed out of the mixed recording sheets. The recording sheet may be readily selected visually because the information is distinguished by the colors. <IMAGE>
