Partial display printing, secure-communication and multiple copying functions in image processing apparatus

摘要

There is provided an image processing apparatus having communicating and recording functions. This apparatus comprises: a communication control unit to communicate an image; a memory to store image information received from the communication control unit; a CRT display to display the image information stored; a designating device to designate a desired area in the image displayed on the CRT display; a printer to print only the area designated by the designating device from the image information stored; and, preferably a second designating device to designate the number of copies of the image information which are to be printed by the printer. With this apparatus, the necessary area in the received image information can be printed alone, in just the necessary number of copies. Thus losses of the paper and printing time can be prevented.
