An image transfer system for transferring image information from an image transmission apparatus to an image reception apparatus provided with means for storing images. For this system, the image reception side determines whether or not the transfer is acceptable. When the user of the apparatus on the call originating side (image transmission apparatus) operates a specific image transmission, a series of image transfer operation sequence is initiated. At first, the sum of the transfer data amount of images to be transmitted is calculated. Then, the image transfer request signal containing this information is transmitted to the apparatus on the called side. The apparatus on that side calculates the free storage capacity of the image storage device, and compares the result thereof with the sum of the target transfer data. If the free storage capacity is found sufficient, the sheet number of images that can be photographed at present, the transferable sheet numbers, and the sheet number still available for photographing after transfer are displayed on the screen so as to enable the user to determine whether or not he can accept the transfer. Then, the acceptance or refusal signal is transmitted to the apparatus on the call originating side accordingly for the effective transfer of the target image data. <IMAGE> |
