Abstract
An electronic device includes circuitry to determine whether to reject or accept a facsimile being transmitted from a transmission source based on a common transmission source list. The common transmission source list is shared by a plurality of electronic devices including the electronic device. The circuitry further outputs a part of the facsimile in response to determining that the transmission source is one from which the facsimile is to be rejected, based on the common transmission source list.
Claims11
An electronic device, comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- determine, in a case that a transmission source of a facsimile is registered neither in a reception permission list of the electronic device nor in a reception rejection list of the electronic device, whether to reject the facsimile being transmitted from the transmission source based on a common transmission source list, the common transmission source list being shared by a plurality of electronic devices including the electronic device;
- output a part of the facsimile in response to determining that the transmission source is one from which the facsimile is to be rejected, based on the common transmission source list, and
- add, to the part of the facsimile, a first image code that stores identification information of the transmission source of the facsimile and information that the transmission source of the facsimile is determined as the one from which the facsimile is to be rejected,
- wherein the circuitry outputs the part of the facsimile to which the first image code is added.
A non-transitory recording medium storing a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, causes the processors to perform a method, the method comprising:
- outputting a part of a facsimile being transmitted from a transmission source in response to determining that the transmission source of the facsimile is registered neither in a reception permission list of an electronic device nor in a reception rejection list of the electronic device and that the transmission source is one from which the facsimile is to be rejected, based on a common transmission source list, the common transmission source list being shared by a plurality of electronic devices,
- wherein a first image code is added to the part of the facsimile, the first image code storing identification information of the transmission source of the facsimile and information that the transmission source of the facsimile is determined as the one from which the facsimile is to be rejected.
A facsimile receiving method, comprising:
- outputting a part of a facsimile being transmitted from a transmission source in response to determining that the transmission source of the facsimile is registered neither in a reception permission list of an electronic device nor in a reception rejection list of the electronic device and that the transmission source is one from which the facsimile is to be rejected based on a common transmission source list, the common transmission source list being shared by a plurality of electronic devices,
- wherein a first image code is added to the part of the facsimile, the first image code storing identification information of the transmission source of the facsimile and information that the transmission source of the facsimile is determined as the one from which the facsimile is to be rejected.
