ABSTRACT:
CLAIM OF PRIORITY
This application makes reference to, incorporates the same herein, and claims all benefits accruing under 35 U.S.C. §119 from an application entitled Method For Printing Set Contents of Mobile Unit in Facsimile Apparatus Having Mobile Unit earlier filed in the Korean Industrial Property Office on Aug. 6, 1997, and there duly assigned Serial No. 97-37550 by that Office.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a facsimile apparatus having mobile units, and in particular, to a method for printing set contents of the mobile units.
2. Description of the Related Art
In a facsimile apparatus having one or more mobile units, a user of the mobile unit can freely change the contents set in the mobile unit by way of key operation. In case the mobile unit has a display unit such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), the mobile unit can display the set contents thereof on the LCD, enabling the user to ascertain the set contents. However, in case the mobile unit does not have the display unit, the user cannot confirm the set contents of the mobile unit unless he or she separately records or manages the set contents whenever the set contents are changed. Furthermore, although the mobile unit has the display unit, the mobile unit can be restricted in fully displaying the set contents due to a size limitation. Further, where the facsimile apparatus has a plurality of mobile units, it is difficult for the user to ascertain the set contents of the respective mobile units.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,788,714 to Hashimoto entitled Remote Controlling Telephone Unit for Selectively Activating One of a Plurality Devices discloses a remote control unit that controls at least one additional device such as a facsimile system through a telephone answering device. It is disclosed that the telephone answering device is engaged with telephone lines upon reception of a ringing signal, and an outgoing message and an instruction message are sent out. It is disclosed that a calling party can record an incoming message in a recorder in a telephone answering device if desired. It is further disclosed when calling party wishes to drive an additional device, a remote control signal corresponding to the desired additional device is sent in accordance with the instruction message.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,922,524 to Baba et al. entitled Facsimile System with a Voice Transmission Function disclose a facsimile communication method including a voice relay mode. It is disclosed that when the voice relay mode have been established, image information is first transmitted from a transmitter to a receiver and then a voice message arbitrarily created by an operator of the transmitter is also transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver, together with a telephone number of an addressee of the image information.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,200,830 to Imaizumi et al. entitled Facsimile Apparatus Capable of Receiving and Printing Multiple Kinds of Data in Accordance with a Predetermined Priority Order disclose a facsimile apparatus that has a first operating mode in which first data entered through an interface from an external unit is received in precedence over second data entered through a modem from other facsimile apparatus over a communication line, and a second operating mode in which the second data is received in precedence over the first data, and is operative to receive and print data in accordance with the mode of priority order set on a switch. It is disclosed that the apparatus is provided with the two sheet delivery ports so that print paper on which the first data is printed and print paper on which the second data is printed are delivered separately to the respective delivery ports. A printing means is disclosed which incorporates a sheet feed means, with print data being disclosed as being supplied by a controller.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,200,991 to Motoyanagi entitled Image Communication System Including A Mobile Telephone Set and a Facsimile Device disclose an image communication apparatus in which a mobile telephone set of a cordless telephone device is connected with a facsimile device through a connector and in which the connection of a telephone line of the mobile telephone set with a communication unit of the facsimile device is controlled on the basis of the state of the connection and the state of a telephone line for facsimile communication. A connection cord for the facsimile device is disclosed as not being required to enable free movements of an operator and the devices.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,255,312 to Koshiishi entitled Facsimile Machine Connectable to Various Communication Equipments discloses a facsimile machine which is coupled to a telephone line and a telephone set, where the facsimile machine connects the telephone set to the telephone line in a telephone mode and disconnects the telephone set from the telephone line in a facsimile mode so as to use the telephone line as a communication line for a facsimile communication, and the facsimile machine is connectable to a communication equipment via an interface unit which is designed exclusively for the communication equipment.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,282,238 to Berland entitled Facsimile Radio Communication System discloses a communication system which enables conventional telephone-type facsimile apparatus to communicate over a conventional two-way voice radio communication system. The system is disclosed as including an interface unit which is connected to the facsimile apparatus and to the transceiver apparatus of the radio communication system. It is disclosed that the interface unit transmits and receives information over the radio system in the form of a series of data packets, each containing origin address, destination address, send sequence and check digit information. A telephone line interface is disclosed that connects to a demodulator, converting received audible tones into digital data, with the information being sent to a thermal printer which reproduces the image of the original document transmitted from a compatible facsimile transceiver.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,299,024 to Kafri entitled Method and Apparatus for Broadcasting and Receiving Broadcasted Information discloses a system for broadcasting and receiving broadcasted information, wherein a first fax or modem is connected through a transmitter interface to a radio transmitter and a second fax or modem is connected through a receiver interface to a radio receiver. It is disclosed that information to be broadcast is encoded by the first fax or modem, transmitted through the transmitter interface and broadcasted. One or more receivers it is disclosed capture the broadcasted information and transmit the captured information through their respective receiver interfaces to their respective second fax machines where the information is decoded and recorded.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,426,511 to Nagamoto entitled Facsimile System with Base Unit Connected to Wire Network and in Communication with Multiple Extensions Sets by Wire or Radio Transmission discloses a facsimile system which includes a base station connected to a wire network, and a plurality of extension sets connected to the base station through radio networks. The base station includes a network control unit for receiving an image signal received through the wire network, a printer for outputting an image corn responding to the image signal received by the network control unit, a control circuit for calling an extension set in response to a call signal received through the wire network, a switching circuit for connecting the wire network to the network control unit in response to a response signal transmitted from the called extension set, and a transceiver for receiving the image signal transmitted from the extension set and sending the image signal to the wire network. It is disclosed the extension set included an image sensor for scanning a document, a transceiver for transmitting the image signal output from the image sensor to the base station, an operation section for manually designating the start of facsimile reception
