Polling Sending
This section shows you how to set up your machine to store and hold a document
until it is polled by another fax machine to send it.
Polling Box Settings Table
Before you set up your polling box, contact the parties who are going to poll your
machine to receive documents and confirm the following points:
• The other parties must know your ITU-T subaddress number.
• If you are also using an ITU-T password for the polling box, they must also know
this password. This password setting is optional.
• Your TX PASSWORD must match the ITU-T password attached when the other
party calls you. Confirm that the TX PASSWORD on your fax machine matches
the ITU-T password attached when the other party calls you.
• If the other party's fax does not support ITU-T subaddress/password transactions,
you may be able to use polling box 00.
