A reader for a facsimile apparatus comprises a line buffer capable of storing at least one line of read raw data and an image buffer for storing encoded image data, for reading an image in synchronism with a line sync signal. The image is continuously read at a period of the line sync signal until the image buffer becomes full, and after the image buffer has become full, the image is read at a period of at least two line sync signals, and when a vacent area of the image buffer subsequently exceeds a predetermined volume, the image is again read continuously at the period of the line sync signal.
