Facsimile communication device, image forming apparatus, registration method, and non-transitory recording medium

A registration method, comprising:

• counting, for each of one or more facsimile numbers, at least one of a number of facsimile transmission times or a number of output times that is stored in association with a corresponding one of the one or more facsimile numbers, the number of facsimile transmission times being counted in relation to a facsimile transmitted, the number of output times being counted in relation to a facsimile received and output;
• determining whether registration of a specified facsimile number for unwanted facsimile is reasonable to be performed, based on at least one of first information or second information, the first information indicating the number of facsimile transmission times associated with the specified facsimile number, the second information indicating the number of output times associated with the specified facsimile number, the specified facsimile number being included in the one or more facsimile numbers;
• and
• registering the specified facsimile number for the unwanted facsimile, in response to a determination result indicating that the registration of the specified facsimile number for the unwanted facsimile is reasonable to be performed.

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:

• counting, for each of one or more facsimile numbers, at least one of a number of facsimile transmission times or a number of output times that is stored in association with a corresponding one of the one or more facsimile numbers, the number of facsimile transmission times being counted in relation to a facsimile transmitted, the number of output times being counted in relation to a facsimile received and output;
• determining whether registration of a specified facsimile number for unwanted facsimile is reasonable to be performed, based on at least one of first information or second information, the first information indicating the number of facsimile transmission times associated with the specified facsimile number, the second information indicating the number of output times associated with the specified facsimile number, the specified facsimile number being included in the one or more facsimile numbers;
• and
• registering the specified facsimile number for the unwanted facsimile, in response to a determination result indicating that the registration of the specified facsimile number for the unwanted facsimile is reasonable to be performed.
