20110019233 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS THAT PERFORMS DATA COMMUNICATION USING SIP, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus that inhibits execution of processing for reading data when redirection is inhibited in a transmission mode in which data is not immediately transmitted, thereby being capable of preventing the reading processing from going to waste. When a mode of data transmission is not a direct transmission mode, the apparatus makes a tentative connection. When it is determined from data communication by the tentative connection that a redirect setting has been made by a recipient side, it is determined whether data transmission is permitted. If permitted, image data is read and stored, and then the apparatus makes a reconnection to send the image data stored in the storage section to a redirect destination terminal. | 01-27-2011 |
20110022723 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS THAT PERFORMS DATA TRANSMISSION USING SIP, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus which enables a user on a source side to transmit data to a redirect destination terminal if the user on the source side desires to perform data transmission, even when a redirect setting has been made by the destination side. A CPU of the information processing apparatus determines whether or not a redirect setting for redirecting data to a redirect destination terminal has been made concerning a destination terminal as a data transmission destination, When the CPU judges that the redirect setting has been made, it queries a user whether or not to permit data transmission to the redirect destination terminal, for selection. When permission of the data transmission to the redirect destination terminal has been selected, the CPU permits the data transmission to the redirect destination terminal. | 01-27-2011 |

The image communication apparatus generates image data for high-speed transmission and image data for low-speed transmission from input image data. Before transmission of image data, it is determined whether high-speed transmission of the image data is possible. When the high-speed transmission of the image data is determined to be possible, the image communication apparatus selects the image data for high-speed transmission, whereas when the same is determined to be impossible, the image communication apparatus selects the image data for low-speed transmission. | 10-25-2012 |
20140376411 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - There are provided a communication apparatus capable of performing voice communication via an IP network, and performing FAX communication using a deemed voice, and a method of controlling the same. At the time of reception of an incoming call, the apparatus determines whether an incoming voice communication call or digital data has been received. If it is determined that the incoming voice communication call has been received and there is an already connected voice communication section, the SLIC superimposes a tone of a notification of the incoming call during voice communication on a voice during voice communication. When the telephone instructs to switch to the incoming call, the apparatus establishes a new session for the incoming call, and controls the selector to connect the already connected voice communication session to the digital modem to send a holding tone. | 12-25-2014 |
