PURPOSE: To improve convenience by recognizing the transmission source at the reporting destination by sending a DTMF signal corresponding to the transmission source to the prescribed reporting source concerning the facsimile equipment with which facsimile reception can be reported.

CONSTITUTION: This equipment is provided with a RAM 13 for previously setting the telephone number of a pocket beeper for reporting the facsimile reception and a CPU 11 for preparing transmission source data by converting transmission source information to the combination of numerals in one-to-one correspondence for each character according to a conversion table, originating a call to the telephone number in the RAM 13, and sending the DTMF signal corresponding to transmission source data after that call is terminated. When sending data, it is preferable to send those data so as not to interfer guidance by making them into the DTMF signal with a transmitting command showing the conversion as a header, and to send the message data of an equipment state together by making them into the DTMF signal.
