Abstract

See full text

A communication apparatus that reduces electric power consumption. A communication apparatus includes a storage section for storing an image received by fax. Power rate information indicative of a time period during which a power rate is high is acquired. A forced memory reception time period during which an image received by fax is not immediately printed but stored in the storage section is set based on the acquired power rate information. When an image is received by fax during the forced memory reception time period, the image received by fax is stored in the storage section. The image stored in the storage section is printed at a time other than the forced memory reception time period.
