PURPOSE:To reserve the idle capacity of a hard disk (BD) without hindrance of holding of reception data. CONSTITUTION:When the MODEM of a facsimile/data communication MODEM controller 21 is accessed, the control is performed by a communication application on a main memory 8, and communication data is stored in a RAM on the MODEM controller 21. At the time of the end of data reception, the idle capacity of an BD 3 managed by DOS(disk operating system) and the reception data volume are compared with each other; and if the idle capacity is smaller, an application program on the main memory 8 retrieves the oldest file and subjects it to data compression to increase the idle capacity. |
