An image processing system, such as a facsimile system, in which a source transmits information to a receiver. The information includes an identification signal which indicates whether image data or an extended program, such as a diagnostic program, is to follow. If image data follows, the receiver processes the data in a normal manner. If the diagnostic program follows, it is stored in a memory for subsequent execution. Since the program doesn't have to be stored in the memory at all times, the memory is used more efficiently. The receiver may request transmission of the diagnostic program in the event of a system failure. The source may transmit a starting time for execution of the diagnostic program.
