Yes.

  The edit key 262 is a key for accepting an edit instruction from the user. When the edit key 262 is touched by the user, the processing content included in the call information 261 can be edited based on an instruction from the user, and for example, correction of the calling time is accepted. That is, for the user, the processing contents registered in the management memory 141 can be edited as necessary.

  When the user finishes the editing operation, the user inputs a reading start instruction by touching the reading start key 263. When the reading start instruction is input, the facsimile apparatus 1 starts document feeding by the automatic document feeder 2 and starts reading the document P. Further, when the reading start key 263 is touched by the user, the processing content displayed on the processing content display screen is set in each page of the document data acquired after the reading is started, that is, the document placement unit 2a. It is set as a processing content common to all pages of the original P.

  In this way, the user can set the visually recognized processing content in the document data of each page of the document to be read by inputting the reading start instruction after visually confirming the processing content. This process has the effect that it can be easily set for the document data of the document to be read.

In addition, since reading of the original P is started after a reading start instruction is input from the user, the processing content corresponding to the identification information assigned to the original P is not intended by the user. as well, the user is noticed before the reading start, it is possible to take prompt appropriate measures such replacing the setting page P _1.

  With reference to FIG. 5, the facsimile transmission process (S2) executed in the above-described facsimile apparatus 1 will be described. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a facsimile transmission process (S2) executed by the CPU 11 of the facsimile apparatus 1. This facsimile transmission process (S2) is a process executed when a document P to be read is set on the document placing portion 2a (see FIG. 1). The processing contents to be executed are set, and processing based on the set processing contents is executed.

  First, information is read by the wireless tag reader 15 from the wireless tag 30 (see FIG. 3) mounted on the original P in a state where the original P to be read is set on the original placement portion 2a (see FIG. 1). The identification information assigned to is acquired (S4). Next, it is determined whether or not the identification information has been acquired (S6). If the determination in S6 is negative (S6: No), a normal process that does not use the wireless tag 30 is executed (S12), and the process ends. To do.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S6 is affirmative (S6: Yes), the number of types of identification information acquired from the document P is determined (S8). Specifically, it is determined whether there are two or more types of identification information acquired from the document P. When there is only one type of identification information acquired from the document P (S8: No), a user setting process (S14) for causing the user to set the processing content is executed. The user setting process (S14) will be described later with reference to FIG.

  If there are two or more types of identification information acquired from the manuscript (S8: Yes), then whether any of the acquired identification information is registered in the management memory 141 (see FIG. 4A). Judgment is made (S10). This embodiment is characterized in that when there are two or more types of identification information, it is confirmed whether the same identification information as the identification information exists in the management memory 141. If the determination in S10 is negative (S10: No), the process proceeds to S14 and the user setting process (S14) is executed. If the determination in S10 is positive (S10: Yes), the automatic setting process is performed. By executing (S16), the processing content corresponding to the identification information determined to be registered in the management memory 141 is read from the management memory 141, and the processing content for the document P is set based on the processing content. .

  The setting procedure executed by the automatic setting process (S16) corresponds to the first setting procedure described in the claims, and the setting procedure executed by the user setting process is described in the claims. This corresponds to the second setting procedure.

  As described above, according to the facsimile transmission process (S2), the processing content related to the document P is set in a different procedure according to the number of types of identification information acquired from the document P. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the complexity of the setting operation when transmitting document data. That is, if there are two or more types of identification information acquired from the set document P, it is checked whether the identification information already exists in the management memory 141. Transition. On the other hand, when the identification information acquired from the document P is not two or more types (in the case of 1 or less), the process immediately proceeds to the user setting process. Therefore, according to the number of types of identification information acquired from the originals P that are set together, the procedure of the setting process that is subsequently executed on the originals P can be appropriately changed. In other words, by simply combining the originals with the necessary identification information and setting them as originals to be read, the original data of the originals set according to the number of types of identification information given to the set originals. The setting process is performed in a procedure suitable for the above. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the complexity of the operation when setting the processing contents to be executed on the document data.

The automatic setting process (S16) will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the automatic setting process. First, the processing contents corresponding to all identification information determined to be identification information registered in the management memory 141 are read from the management memory 141 and displayed on the processing contents display screen (see FIG. 4B) (S702). ). And when any one is selected by the user from the displayed processing content, the processing content other than the selected processing content is deleted from the screen, and the identification information corresponding to the processing content selected by the user Is stored in the reference identification information memory 132 (see FIG. 2) (S704). For example, as shown in FIG. 3, at the beginning of the read target document P, the setting page P ₁ with the RFID tag 30 is disposed, if the subsequent document P ₂ to P ₆ are arranged in succession, the original P ₂ Since the wireless tag 30 also exists in the (FAX transmission form), it is assumed that the identification information is read out from these two wireless tags 30. In that case, the identification information read out from the setting page P ₁ is determined to be registered identification information to the management memory 141, the processing contents corresponding to the identification information read from the management memory 141, in S702 Is displayed. Furthermore, in S704, it is stored in the reference identification information memory 132.

  Next, the processing content displayed on the processing content display screen is edited based on an instruction from the user (S706). Then, it is determined whether or not a reading instruction has been input (S708). If the determination in S708 is negative (S708: No), the process returns to S706. In S706, a reading start instruction can be accepted even when there is no instruction to edit the processing content by the user.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S708 is affirmative (S708: Yes), that is, when a reading instruction is input, the processing content displayed on the processing content display screen when the reading instruction is input is set as the processing content related to the document P. (S709).

  Next, the automatic document feeder 2 feeds the document P one page (S710), and the identification information assigned to the one-page document P is the identification information stored in the reference identification information memory 132 (see FIG. 2). It is determined whether or not they match (S712).

  The identification information assigned to one page of document P can be detected as follows. First, when one page of the document P is read by the scanner device 3 (page 1 in FIG. 1) and the document P is sent to a paper discharge unit (not shown) outside the area readable by the wireless tag reader 15, the wireless tag reader 15 Thus, the identification information is acquired again from the document P placed on the document placement unit 2a, and all the identification information acquired before the reading of the document P is stored in the identification information memory 131 (see FIG. 2). Since the stored identification information is compared with the identification information acquired this time, the identification information assigned to the document P can be detected.

  If the determination in S712 is affirmative (S712: Yes), the original data is not stored in the original data memory 133 (see FIG. 2) (S714), and the process proceeds to S718.

For example, as shown in FIG. 3, at the beginning of the read target document P, it is arranged for setting page P _1, the processing content for the original P ₂ to P ₆ on the basis of the identification information read from the setting page P ₁ Is determined, the identification information read from the setting page P ₁ is stored in the reference identification information memory 132. Therefore, when the reading of the setting page P ₁ is performed, identification information assigned to the setting for the page P1 is, it is determined that matches the identification information stored in the reference identification information memory 132, the setting page P ₁ Original data is not saved. As a result, transmission of document data is prohibited for the setting page P1.

In this way, the original P set for setting the same processing content as that already registered in the management memory 131 (setting page P _{1 in} the example of FIG. 3) is newly transmitted. Since the document data is distinguished from the document to be attempted and the document data is not transmitted, the inconvenience of transmitting the document data unnecessary for the destination party is suppressed.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S712 is negative (S712: No), it is regarded as document data to be transmitted, the document data is stored in the document data memory 133 (see FIG. 2) (S716), and stored in the document placement unit 2a. It is determined whether there is a next original (S718). If the determination in S718 is affirmative (S718: Yes), the process returns to S710 and is repeated.

  If the reading of all pages of the document P is completed while the processing is repeated in this way and the determination in S718 is negative (S718: No), the processing of S709 is performed on the document data stored in the document data memory. The processing content set in is set in the timer transmission management memory or the polling transmission management memory (S720). Specifically, for example, when the type of the set processing content is “timer transmission”, “destination information” included in the set processing content is set as the destination facsimile number and set. A timer transmission management memory (not shown) for managing timer transmission together with the storage location of the stored document data so that a call is executed at the date and time indicated by “call time” included in the processing contents. Set for. Also, for example, when the set processing content type is “polling transmission”, the transmission of the data stored in the document data memory is stored so that it can be executed in response to an operation on the transmission destination side. A setting is made on a polling transmission management memory (not shown) that manages polling transmission, together with the document data storage destination. Even if “timer transmission” and “polling transmission” are set, the operation is not immediately executed. Therefore, after setting in S720, the process shifts to standby.

As described above, according to the automatic setting process (S16), appropriate process contents are simply set for the newly set document P based on the process contents registered in advance in the management memory 141. Further, since the common processing contents in each page of the document is set, for example, the desired processing page P ₁ for setting the identification information is assigned corresponding to the contents, by placing along with other document, the desired Based on this processing content, processing content common to each page of the document can be easily set. Further, for example, by repeatedly using the same settings for page P _1, it is possible to set the same processing content any number of times automatically. Moreover, the method of use is simple and easy for the user to remember.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the user setting process (S14). This user setting process is a process executed when there is only one type of identification information acquired from the document P.

  First, a user instruction is accepted, and processing contents designated by the user instruction are set (S802). Next, it is determined whether a reading start instruction has been input by pressing a start key (not shown) (S804). While the determination in S804 is negative (S804: No), the process waits.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S804 is affirmative (S804: Yes), all the originals set on the original placing portion 2a are read and stored in the original data memory 133 (see FIG. 2) (S806). If there is only one type of identification information acquired from the document P, the processing contents set in the processing of S802 are newly registered in the management memory 141 in association with the acquired identification information (S808). Note that if the identification information is not acquired from the document P, the process of S808 is skipped.

  Then, the processing content set in the processing of S802 is executed on the data stored in the document data memory (S810). The specific contents of the execution are the same as in the case of the automatic setting process.

  According to the user setting process (S14), when there is only one piece of identification information read from the document P, or when no piece of identification information is read, reception of user instructions is immediately started, Appropriate processing contents as desired are set for the document data of the document to be read.

  Two or more types of identification information have been acquired (the determination of S8 in FIG. 5 is affirmed), but none of them is registered in the management memory 141 (the determination of S10 in FIG. 5 is denied). When the facsimile transmission process (S2) is executed, the identification information determined not to be registered is regarded as the identification information for the original data of the new original P. Then, the processing content designated by the user is registered in the management memory 141 in association with the identification information acquired from the document P. Therefore, when the document is read next time, it is newly registered. By setting the original P to which the identification information is assigned together with other originals to be read, the same processing content as the processing content specified by the user instruction is obtained using the newly registered identification information. Again, it is possible to easily set the document data of another document.

  For example, when a recording sheet with a wireless tag is used only for the front page, there is only one type of identification information read from the document P. Therefore, when processing content is set based on a user instruction, it is assigned to that front page. Since the identification information thus set and the processing content set based on the user instruction are associated with each other and registered in the management memory 141, the front page can be used as a setting page for another document P from the next time. it can.

  The present invention has been described above based on the embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be easily made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Can be inferred.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, only when there are two or more types of acquired identification information, it is confirmed whether the identification information exists in the management memory 141, and if it exists, setting of processing contents based on the identification information is performed. Is applied to the document data of a new document, but even if the number of types of identification information acquired is one, the same processing content is set in the document data of a new document based on the identification information. It may be configured as follows.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a modified example of facsimile transmission processing (S902). The facsimile apparatus 1 may be configured to execute a modified facsimile transmission process (S902) shown in FIG. 8 instead of the facsimile transmission process (S2) of the embodiment shown in FIG. In the facsimile transmission process (S902) shown in FIG. 8, the same steps as those in the facsimile process (S2) shown in FIG.

  In the modified facsimile transmission process (S902), when identification information is acquired from the document P (S6: Yes), any one of the acquired identification information is managed by the management memory 141 (FIG. 4A). It is determined whether or not it is registered (see S908). That is, it is confirmed whether the identification information is registered in the management memory 141 regardless of the number of types of identification information acquired.

  If the determination in S908 is negative (S908: No), the above-described user setting process (S14) is executed, and the process ends. On the other hand, if the determination in S908 is affirmative (S908: Yes), it is determined whether there are two or more types of identification information acquired next (S910). If the determination in S910 is affirmative (S910: Yes), the above-described automatic setting process (S16) is executed, and the process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S910 is negative (S910: No), that is, if the acquired identification information is one type, the identification determined to be the identification information registered in the management memory in the determination in S908. The information is stored in the reference identification information memory 132 (see FIG. 2) (S912).

  Next, the processing content corresponding to the identification information stored in the reference identification information memory 132 is read from the management memory 141 (see FIG. 4A) and displayed on the processing content display screen (see FIG. 4B) (see FIG. 4B). S914). Next, the processing content displayed on the processing content display screen is edited based on an instruction from the user (S916). Then, it is determined whether or not a reading instruction has been input (S918). If the determination in S918 is negative (S918: No), the process returns to S916. Here, even when there is no editing instruction from the user, a reading instruction can be accepted.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S918 is affirmative (S918: Yes), that is, when a reading instruction is input, the processing content displayed on the processing content display screen when the reading instruction is input is set as the processing content related to the document P. (S919).

  Next, the automatic document feeder 2 feeds the document P one page (S920), and determines whether or not a wireless tag is attached to the one-page document (S922). If the determination in S922 is negative (S922: No), the process proceeds to S930.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S922 is affirmative (S922: Yes), it is determined whether or not the one-page document P is a document to which identification information is assigned (S924). If the determination in S924 is affirmative (S924: Yes), the original data is not stored in the original data memory 133 (see FIG. 2) (S936), and the process proceeds to S930. That is, similarly to the above, transmission of the document data of the page used for setting the processing content is prohibited.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S924 is negative (S924: No), that is, if the wireless tag is attached to the document P and the identification information is not written in the wireless tag, identification information is newly generated (S926). The identification information is written in a wireless tag attached to the document P by a wireless tag writer (not shown) (S926). Then, the identification number written in the wireless tag and the in-process use set in the process of S919 are associated with each other and registered in the management memory 141 (S928), and the process proceeds to S930.

  Next, in the process of S930, the acquired document data is stored in the document data memory 133 (see FIG. 2) (S930), and it is determined whether or not there is a next document on the document placement unit 2a (S932). If the determination in S932 is affirmative (S932: Yes), the process returns to S920 and is repeated.

  If the reading of all pages of the document P is completed while the processing is repeated in this way and the determination in S932 is negative (S932: No), the processing of S919 is performed on the document data stored in the document data memory. In step S934, the processing contents set in step S5 are set in a timer transmission management memory (not shown) or a polling transmission management memory (not shown).

  According to the modified facsimile transmission process (S902), the same effect as the facsimile transmission process (S2) of the above-described embodiment can be obtained, and even if the number of types of identification information obtained from the document is one. Using the processing content corresponding to the one type of identification information, the same processing content is set for the document data of a new document. Further, when the identification information is not written on the wireless tag of the new document, the newly created identification information is written. Therefore, the document with the newly generated identification information written on the wireless tag is used for the next time. By using it in subsequent transmissions, the same processing content as that set in the processing of S919 can be easily set for the document data of other documents.

  In the modification shown in FIG. 9, when the identification information does not exist in the new document wireless tag, identification information is individually created and written in the wireless tag in each page of the document in step S926. Alternatively, only one type of identification information may be created, and the one type of identification information may be written on a wireless tag on each page of a new document. In this case, registration to the management memory 141 in S928 may be performed only once.

  In the automatic setting process (S16) of the above embodiment, identification information determined not to be registered in the management memory 141 is not used, but identification determined to be not registered in the management memory 141. The information may be newly registered in association with the processing content.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a modification automatic setting process (S100). In the automatic setting process (S100) of this modified example, the same processes as the automatic setting process (S16) described with reference to FIG. Also, the description of the same process as the automatic setting process (S16) shown in FIG. 6 is omitted or simplified.

  As shown in FIG. 9, in the automatic setting process (S100) of the modified example, the identification information assigned to the one-page document P read in S710 is stored in the reference identification information memory 132 (see FIG. 2). It is determined whether or not the information matches (S712). If the result is affirmative, the same processing as the automatic setting processing (S16) of the embodiment is executed.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S712 is negative (S712: No), in the automatic setting process (S100) of this modification, it is next determined whether or not identification information is assigned to the document (S722). If the determination in S722 is negative (S722: No), the process proceeds to S716, and the same process as the automatic setting process (S16) of the embodiment is executed.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S722 is affirmative (S722: Yes), that is, if identification information is assigned to the document P, a process of executing the assigned identification information on the document data of the document P. The contents are registered in the management memory 141 in association with the contents set as contents (S724), and the process proceeds to S716.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of the management memory 141 in which identification information is newly registered in the automatic setting process of the modified example. As shown in FIG. 10, for example, when the identification information “BRO0001” assigned to the setting page has been registered in the management memory 141 in advance, the processing content for the new document data based on the identification information “BRO0001”. Is determined. If identification information other than the identification information determined to be registered in the management memory 141 (for example, “BRO0004”) is acquired from the document P, the identification information is associated with the determined processing content. Newly registered. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4, the processing content of the document data corresponding to the identification information “BRO004” is registered. If it is determined in step S718 that there is a next original, the process returns to step S710, and the next original is read. However, even if it is determined in S722 that there is identification information for this original, If the identification information is the same as the identification information given to the previous document, it is regarded as a series of documents, and registration to the management memory in S724 is not performed, but only document data storage is executed (S716). Further, if the identification information given to the document newly read in S710 is other identification information, the processing of S724 may be executed on the document.

  In this way, when the document is read from the next time onward, the newly registered identification information (document P assigned with “BRO0004” in the example shown in FIG. 10) is used as the next reading target. By adding to a document, the processing content for the next document to be read can be set using the identification information. That is, even if the document P is not registered in the management memory 141, the identification information registered in the management memory 141 is transmitted at least once together with the setting document P. It can be used as the setting document P.

  In the automatic setting process (S16) of the above embodiment, when there are a plurality of pieces of identification information determined to be registered in the management memory 141, a plurality of processing contents corresponding to the plurality of pieces of identification information are displayed on the operation panel 26. Display and let the user choose one. Instead, only the processing content corresponding to the identification information obtained from the first document P in the transmission order among the plurality of types of identification information acquired is displayed on the operation panel 26. Also good. In this way, the user only needs to place the setting page at the beginning of the document P that he / she wishes to transmit, and can easily learn the operation method.

  In the above-described embodiment, the processing content includes type, destination information, and call time. However, any one of them may be included, and the resolution and density of reading may be included. Other settings may be included as processing contents. Further, for example, when a password is set in the transmission side device in order to increase the confidentiality of polling transmission, the password may be included in the processing content.

  Moreover, although the said embodiment demonstrated as what the process content regarding timer transmission or polling transmission was set, this invention is applicable also to transmission processes other than these transmission processes. Furthermore, the present invention can be applied to various processes other than the facsimile transmission process.

  For example, if the copy machine is provided with a history registration means for registering the copy setting history, it is determined whether the identification information acquired from the copy source document is registered in the history registration means, and the history registration is performed. If it is already registered in the means, the copy setting (for example, the number of sets, resolution, color / monochrome, 2 in 1) corresponding to the identification information is read and set, and the copy of the document to be read is set with the set copy setting. It may be configured to execute a copy process.

  Similarly, when the facsimile apparatus is provided with history registration means for registering history information of facsimile transmission / reception, the history information is read based on the identification information acquired from the document to be transmitted, and the history information is read out. It may be configured such that the processing content relating to facsimile transmission is set.

  In the above embodiment, the management memory 141 is described as being provided in the flash memory 14 built in the facsimile apparatus 1. However, the management memory 141 may be provided in an external storage device or a removable memory card.

In the above embodiment, the original P ₁ of the setting page, has been described as being set collectively and document P ₂ to P ₆ to be actually transmitted, for example, read first the only document setting page The document to be actually transmitted may be set after a predetermined operation. That is, the setting document does not necessarily have to be set together with the document to be transmitted.

In the above embodiment, when two or more types of identification information are registered in the management memory 141 among a plurality of types of identification information acquired from the document P, one of the two or more types of identification information is selected by the user. However, if two or more pieces of identification information are registered in the management memory 141, the setting arranged at the top of the two or more pieces of identification information is selected. the identification information obtained from the use of pages P ₁ may be pre-treated is defined to use.

  In the above-described embodiment, the management memory (not shown) dedicated to timer transmission and polling transmission is described. However, instead of this, the management memory 141 described in this embodiment uses the timer transmission management memory. It may be used as a memory and a management memory for polling transmission. In this case, for example, the management number (or identification information) associated with the processing content in the management memory 141 is associated with the document data stored in the document data memory 133 of the RAM 13 and stored. In this case, the process of associating and storing the management number (or identification information) with the document data corresponds to “setting means” recited in the claims.

  In this way, for example, when the “calling time” set by the timer transmission is reached, the management number corresponding to the “calling time” is referred to based on the contents of the management memory 141, and Document data corresponding to the management number (identification information) is read from the document data memory 133. Then, the document data is transmitted based on the “destination information”.
