Abstract
A facsimile apparatus includes a first detecting unit and a second detecting unit. The a first detecting unit detects whether a facsimile communication is established or not with a communication destination in a prescribed time after a selection signal is sent to the communication destination with a communication line held. The second detecting unit detects a state of the communication line with the communication line held when the first detecting unit detects that a facsimile communication is not established.
Claims8
A facsimile apparatus comprising:
- a first detecting unit that detects whether a facsimile communication is established or not with a communication destination in a prescribed time after a selection signal is sent to the communication destination with a communication line held;
- and
- a second detecting unit that detects a state of the communication line with the communication line held when the first detecting unit detects that a facsimile communication is not established.
A failure detection method comprising:
- detecting whether a facsimile communication is established or not with a communication destination in a prescribed time after a selection signal is sent to the communication destination with a communication line held;
- and
- detecting a state of the communication line with the communication line held when the first detecting unit detects that a facsimile communication is not established.
A computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for failure detection, the process comprising:
- detecting whether a facsimile communication is established or not with a communication destination in a prescribed time after a selection signal is sent to the communication destination with a communication line held;
- and
- detecting a state of the communication line with the communication line held when the first detecting unit detects that a facsimile communication is not established.
