1. A transfer-side facsimile machine comprising:

  • a transfer-side facsimile communication portion that performs facsimile communication;

    a transfer-side control portion that controls transfer, to a reception-side facsimile machine, of facsimile data which is received from another facsimile machine and which is a target to be transferred to the reception-side facsimile machine; and

    a data transfer setting portion that, when the transfer-side facsimile machine receives a reception allowance/rejection signal,sets the transfer-side facsimile machine to a data transfer mode if the reception allowance/rejection signal indicates reception allowance of the facsimile data which is the target to be transferred andcancels the data transfer mode of the transfer-side facsimile machine if the reception allowance/rejection signal indicates reception rejection,the reception allowance/rejection signal being a signal which is received based on calling of the reception-side facsimile machine, which indicates a detail of reception allowance/rejection of facsimile data transferred from the transfer-side facsimile machine, and which uses a communication signal in a previously determined facsimile communication protocol,wherein when the facsimile data which is the target to be transferred to the reception-side facsimile machine is received from the other facsimile machine in the data transfer mode, the transfer-side control portion makes the transfer-side facsimile communication portion transfer the facsimile data which is the target to be transferred to the reception-side facsimile machine, andwhen the facsimile data which is the target to be transferred to the reception-side facsimile machine is received from the other facsimile machine outside the data transfer mode, the transfer-side control portion makes an image formation portion print the facsimile data received from the other facsimile machine.
