A facsimile apparatus comprises a memory for storing communication mode information, a setting unit for setting a communication mode, and a data transmitting unit for transmitting image data in accordance with the set communication mode. The setting unit checks in response to an input transmission start instruction whether a destination facsimile apparatus is a new receiving side. If the destination facsimile apparatus is determined to be a new receiving side, the setting unit receives the communication mode information from the destination facsimile apparatus and stores the received communication mode information in the memory. If the destination facsimile apparatus is determined not to be a new receiving side, the setting unit reads out the communication mode information from the memory and transmits the readout communication mode information to the destination facsimile apparatus. The setting unit receives changed communication mode information transmitted from the destination facsimile apparatus in response to transmission of the readout communication mode information and stores the changed communication mode information in the memory. The communication mode is set in accordance with one of the changed communication mode information, the readout communication mode information, and the received communication mode information.
