ABSTRACT:
The present invention includes a facsimile apparatus which transmits, at the least, a password, retrieval information, and destination information in accordance with a prescribed format, and an image database. The present invention offers an image database system consisting of a image database center apparatus which analyzes information from the transmission facsimile apparatus, retrieves a database corresponding to the information, and transmits the database to a facsimile apparatus indicated by the destination information, and an image communication apparatus constituting this system which accesses a image database according to a standardized access sheet from a G3 or a G4 facsimile apparatus and outputs it to a desired facsimile. In the present system, an access sheet can be sent to a database apparatus as image information. Therefore, the database apparatus can be accessed from existing facsimile terminals and the result of an execution on the database apparatus side can be posted to general facsimile terminals. In particular, a request execution result report including fee display can be automatically communicated to a facsimile of a client, and the database side can add up and display an additional fee such as a service charge to the client.
