ABSTRACT:
A storage-and-forward apparatus accommodates a plurality of private lines and a plurality of public lines. The storage-and-forward apparatus includes an exchange for carrying out a connection and a disconnection between each of the private lines and each of the second lines, and an image memory for storing image information transmitted via each of the private lines from a facsimile. The storage-and-forward apparatus directly relays image information transmitted via each of the private lines from the facsimile to a destination coupled to a corresponding one of the public lines in a first mode, and stores the image information transmitted via each of the private lines from the facsimile in the image memory and transmits the information stored in the image memory to the destination via a corresponding one of the public lines in a second mode. The storage-and-forward apparatus communicates with the facsimile and the destination in the second mode in a case where the facsimile transmits a command for requesting a communication by the first mode to the storage-and-forward apparatus when the destination is communicating to another communication terminal.
