What is Polling?
Polling means that one fax machine requests another to send a document.
This is useful for sending unattended faxes. The person who wants to receive
the document calls the machine holding the original and requests that the
document be sent. In other words, it “polls” the machine holding the original
document.
Note: The remote machine must also support polling to use this feature.
Being polled by a remote machine (TX poll)
You can program your fax machine to send documents when polled by a
remote fax machine. It is possible to assign a poll code to prevent
unauthorized polling of your fax machine.
When you secure your machine using a poll code, only those who know the
code can poll your machine.
1. Place the document fac down in the automatic document feeder. If
desired, adjust the resolution and contrast. for details, see page 2.8

prompts you to choose on of the two polling options: 1.TX POLL and
2.DELAY RX POLL.

enter a 4-digit poll code.
Note: The poll code is preset to 0000 at the factory. This setting represents no poll
code.
