Abstract

A facsimile apparatus receives identification data identifying a particular destination terminal, at the time of transmitting document data to the destination terminal via a telephone line. A memory unit stores, as a data pair, a facsimile number input by manual dialing, and the identification data returned from the destination terminal. A display unit displays the identification data. A selection unit selects one of the identification data displayed on the display means. A line connecting unit reads out a facsimile number stored in the memory means and corresponding to the selected identification data, and connects the facsimile apparatus to a telephone line corresponding to the readout facsimile number.
