Polling
Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You
can use your MFC to “poll” other machines, or you can have someone poll
your MFC.
All parties involved in polling must set up their fax machines to
accommodate polling. When someone polls your MFC to receive a fax,
they pay for the call; if you poll someone’s fax machine to receive a fax,
you pay for the call.
Some fax machines do not respond to the polling function.
Setting Up Polling Receive
Polling Receive is when you call another fax machine to receive a fax
