PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a user who reads a Web page by Internet connection equipment to which any printer is not connected, for example, a portable telephone 19 to smoothly obtain the hard copy of the Web page. SOLUTION: An icon 52 for requesting facsimile transmission is displayed in a Web page. When a user clicks the icon 52 for requesting the facsimile transmission, a facsimile server 12 is informed of the URL of the Web page, and the picture of a display part 51 is switched to the Web page of the facsimile server 12. Then, a user inputs a membership number for charging and the facsimile number of the destination of facsimile transmission on this switched picture. The facsimile server 12 performs access to the communicated URL, and generates data for facsimile output from the Web page, and transmits the data to facsimile equipment 36 at the destination of facsimile transmission.
