Abstract

Facsimile log information pertaining to the transmission and reception of image data is stored in a RAM 9. Telephone log information pertaining to the transmission and reception of voice data is also stored in the RAM 9. Thus stored facsimile log information and the telephone log information are printed out on a management report in a discriminatable manner. By viewing the management report, the user of the facsimile machine can manage not only facsimile communication but also telephone communication performed by the facsimile machine.
