What is Polling
Polling is when one fax machine requests another to send a document. This
is useful when the person with the original document to be sent is not in
the office. 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 ÒpollsÓ the machine holding the original.
Being Polled By a Remote Machine
You can programme your fax machine to send documents in your absence
when polled by a remote fax machine. It is possible to use a Poll Code to
prevent unauthorized polling of your fax machine. When you secure your
machine in this manner, only those who know the Poll Code can poll your
machine.

or the EXPRESS button. For details, see page 2.8.

you to choose the polling options; TX (Transmission Polling) and CONT
