Abstract
Disclosed in a facsimile apparatus which performs communication using the user-to-user of an ISDN. User-to-user information inputted from a control panel and used when an outgoing call is made is capable of being registered in a buffer memory as one-touch dialing data or abbreviated dialing data, or user-to-user information employed in communication is capable of being registered in the buffer memory as redialing data when communication ends. The user-to-user information is registered as data only with regard to one-touch dialing or abbreviated dialing limited in advance.

A facsimile apparatus for performing communication using user-to-user information included in a SETUP message for calling an integrated services digital network, comprising:
- manual input means for inputting user-to-user information corresponding to a destination;
- registration means for pre-registering the manually-input user-to-user information corresponding to the destination;
- manual instruction means for manually inputting an instruction to call the destination;
- and
- communication means, responsive to the instruction, for reading the user-to-user information pre-registered in said registration means to provide read user-to-user information, and for calling the integrated services digital network by using the read user-to-user information in a SETUP message.
