FACSIMILE APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD FOR FACSIMILE APPARATUS AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

A facsimile apparatus comprises a communication unit having a high-speed communication mode and a low-speed communication mode lower in communication speed than the high-speed communication mode. The facsimile apparatus automatically selects the low-speed communication mode to send a fax to an opposite communication party the communication error occurrence of which meets a specific condition in the case where a fax is sent in the high-speed communication mode.

主权项

1. A facsimile apparatus, comprising:
a communicator that has a high-speed communication mode and a low-speed communication mode lower in communication speed than the high-speed communication mode; a communication error detector that detects a communication error; a record manager that manages to store a communication record containing the communication error detected by the communication error detector and an opposite communication party in a non-transitory memory; a determiner that determines whether or not the communication errors occurring during the communication with the facsimile apparatus of the opposite communication party meet a specific condition based on the communication record; and a communication mode selector that selects the low-speed communication mode as the communication speed of the communicator when the facsimile apparatus communicates with an opposite communication party which is determined by the determiner as meeting the specific condition, wherein the record manager manages to store a date of a communication that is implemented in the communication record in the non-transitory memory, and the determiner determines whether or not the communication errors occurring within a specific period of time meet a specific condition based on the date of the communication.
