POLLING
Polling is when one fax machine re-
quests that another fax machine send
a document. This is useful when the
person with the original document is
not in the office.
The person who wants to receive the
document calls the fax machine hold-
ing the original and requests that the
document be sent. In other words, it
“polls” the fax machine holding the
original.
Notes:
• No documents should be loaded
in your machine, and the remote
machine must be ready for your
call and have the polling feature.
• Your TFX-1031 can only receive
polled documents. You cannot poll
documents from it to another fax
machine.

chine’s basic functions and com-
mands to use as a quick reference

ticular function.
