Abstract: A gateway device with private branch exchanging function capable of carrying out transmission of image data using a desired network without carrying out any complicated operations by a user. When receiving an input of a facsimile number and the image data from the user, the facsimile machine FAX1a connected to the private branch network K transmits the facsimile number and the image data to the gateway device GTW1 functioning as a PBX. When receiving the facsimile number and the image data from the facsimile machine FAX1a, the gateway device GTW1 confirms the number attached to the front of the facsimile number, and when the number is null0null, transmits the image data to the facsimile machine FAX2 via the public switched telephone network PSTN. When the number is null*null, the gateway device GTW1 transmits the image data to the gateway device GTW2 via the Internet NTW.

Abstract: A fax routing system and method using a standard fax machine and personal computer. The telephone number is decoded from the telephone number dialing which is generated by the fax machine. This number is looked up in a table. If a corresponding Internet address is found, the fax is downloaded from the fax machine, converted into a computer file, and sent to the recipient via his Internet address. If a corresponding Internet address is not found, the decoded number is dialed on a telephone line and, thereafter, the telephone line is connected to the fax machine for normal fax delivery.

Abstract: An electronic-mail reception apparatus has a body and includes a facsimile receiver that negotiates with a sender before receiving image data, to receive image data in facsimile format from the sender via a telephone network. An electronic-mail receiver receives image data in an electronic mail format from a mail sender via a communication network, a converter converts the image data in the electronic mail format into image data in the facsimile format, and an output section outputs the converted image data. An error transmission section, when the data format that the electronic-mail receiver receives is different from a predetermined data format of the image data in an electronic-mail format, transmits an error message to the mail sender. The facsimile receiver, the electronic-mail receiver, the converter, the output section and the error transmission section are integrated in the body of the apparatus.

Abstract: An Internet facsimile apparatus makes inquiry about capability, which a destination possesses, to a local server. The server is connected to the same LAN as that of the Internet facsimile apparatus. When the local server has no capability information of the destination, the Internet facsimile apparatus makes inquiry to a DNS server and obtains capability information. Then, the Internet facsimile apparatus makes an image to be suitable for the capability of the destination and transmits it to the destination via the Internet. As a result, the Internet facsimile apparatus on a transmitter side can surely obtain capability information of a destination terminal, thereby making it possible to carry out the same capability exchange as that of G3 facsimile apparatus.

Abstract translation: 互联网传真机将目的地所拥有的能力查询到本地服务器。 服务器连接到与因特网传真设备相同的LAN。 当本地服务器没有目的地的能力信息时，因特网传真设备向DNS服务器询问并获得能力信息。 然后，因特网传真装置使图像适合于目的地的能力，并通过因特网将其发送到目的地。 结果，发送机侧的因特网传真装置可以肯定地获得目的地终端的能力信息，从而能够执行与G3传真装置相同的能力交换。

Abstract: A Protocol Fax Box (PFB) receives information, determines destinations for the information, and converts the information protocol and data, if necessary, for transmission to the destinations. The PFB has plural interfaces from which it receives and sends data. Upon receiving information on one of its interfaces, the PFB creates a set of objects for handling the transfer of the information from the incoming interface to an outgoing, or destination, interface. A source object handles the incoming communication, a session object handles destination determination, and a destination object handles protocol conversion from the source interface to the destination interface. The session object also logs information regarding each session. The PFB may use a client server model to download information as needed from a network, or have processing be performed on the network.

Abstract translation: 协议传真箱（PFB）接收信息，确定信息的目的地，并根据需要转换信息协议和数据，以传输到目的地。 PFB有多个接口从中接收和发送数据。 在接收到其一个接口上的信息时，PFB创建一组对象，用于处理将信息从入站接口传送到传出或目的地接口。 源对象处理传入通信，会话对象处理目标确定，目标对象处理从源接口到目标接口的协议转换。 会话对象还记录有关每个会话的信息。 PFB可以使用客户端服务器模型根据需要从网络下载信息，或者在网络上执行处理。
