Abstract
Abstract In an apparatus for transmitting stored information of memory, such as facsimile apparatus (11), the store area (Cl-Cn) of memory (C) is divided by predetermined store capacity, and the data to be transmitted is stored in the divided store area (Cl-Cn), and the sequence of transmission of the store area (Cl-Cn) is also stored. when transmitting, the stored information is sent out according to this transmission sequence, and the transmitted data is erased. Afterwards, searching the store area (Cl-Cn) in which the data to be sent next is stored, the transmission is continued. Thus, if the quantities of data to be transmitted should vary, it is not necessary to shift the store area (Cl-Cn) within the memory (C) to erase the transmitted data, and hence the transmission time is shortened and the memory convenience is enhanced.
