Abstract

PURPOSE:To avoid collation of picture information recording and communication management information at each reception by providing a communication management information recording means to an upperstream side of a picture information recording means to obtain surely the communication management information even at the occurrence of jam. CONSTITUTION:The information from a line is converted and outputted by an interface circuit 33, a communication management information generating circuit 31 and a picture information generating circuit 32 to activate an optical scanning means 23 and a communication management information recording means 37 through driver circuits 30a, 30b. The picture information is formed as a latent image on a photosensitive drum 21 by an optical scanning means 23. The photosensitive drum 21 is turned in the arrow B, and a prescribed part of the photosensitive drum 21 formed with the latent image is developed by a developing means 24 and moved to a transfer means 25. On the other hand, communication management information such as sender name, receiver name data and number of transmission sheets is recorded on recording paper 40a on the uppermost part by using the communication management information recording means 37. The recording paper 40a is moved to the transfer means 25 by paper feeding rollers 34, 35 in matching with the turning of the drum 21 and the image of the drum 21 is transferred to the recording paper 40a.
