ABSTRACT:
A network controlling section makes communication with a receiver side, and receives receiver side information including the presence or absence of Internet facsimile capabilities on a receiver side, mail addresses, and an apparatus possession capability. A receiver side information identifying section identifies receiver side information. The receiver side information identifying section registers identified receiver side information to a receiver side information table. A determining section provides an instruction to an image conversion processing section and an IFAX processing section to transmit image data to be suitable for the capability on the receiver side with reference to the receiver side information table. When the receiver side has Internet facsimile capabilities, the IFAX processing section transmits image data as an E-mail over the Internet. Also, the image conversion processing section converts image data to be suitable for the possession capabilities on the receiver side.
